Which rom has everything working out the box? i have no problems flashing any rom but some how i have a problem in each rom, like right now im using Playfulgods CM7 port because i do not get any errors or problems installing apps like i get in every other rom. My problem with this one is that the GPS doesnt seem to work. O do you have to have service in order for GPs to work?

Don't remember, but i thing i was having issues installing some apps that i use a lot. Does that one have CM7 setting and all working out the box? Don't remember.

So lets say if im not connected to any wifi does the gps look for my metro pcs service as alternative?

If you aren't paying for metro, it wont work as a GPS ...it must have some kind of data connection to work. Everything works out of the box with backside, I'm using it now on my OM, I used it with my OV and I replaced some files to get MMS working with it and mms works with my OV, but then I installed ICS on it...
 
Alright so i guess is just that i don't have any service, thx bro.

Do you ever have any problems installing apps? on Backside
 
Stability and everything working out the gate, I'd have to go with the Sense rom. Aplus rom is good as well. No errors what so ever for me. As for CM7, I've been using Reppard's since his last version till now, along with his kernal. No errors except for a couple known issues with the rom:

-sometimes slight lag on wake
-inability to use wired headset (don't use Bluetooth because I don't wanna have to worry about charging that too)

Last week I tried Backside. Both issues gone.However, my phone would often hang when the cpu is set to conservative, so I'd have to do a battery pull. Not so with Reppard's. Conservative with Reppard, almost 3 day battery life. On demand (if I don't want to pull battery often) Backside, less than 2 days. Both with medium use.

Alas, I went back to Reppard's rom.

Pick what runs on your phone the best with whatever customizations and apps you use. What works on one's phone may not work well with yours.
 
Everything is running great than, is just that i thought that GPs didnt need any service, i thought it just worked on its own.
 
i was using reppards build from 9/15 since ne posted it on 9/15 lol everything works beautifully, never had an issue with stability or gps or anything, i just recently updated to bobz and have been usuing it, havent had any issues with it yet either, everything works beautifully, no lag, everything is spot on, been running my phone on ondemand gov at 806Mhz for almost a year now, no issues

You got a good OM, my OM's max is 768.
My OV's max is past the limit of the max though which is 844MHz ^_^
but I leave it at 806 because it does get hot...
 
lol yeah i got lucky, it can handle 825 but get hot and the battery drains fast, dont need a hand warmer, i live in florida.. lol anyway, been using bobz for the last week and now all of the sudden everything is lagging like crazy, have to rboot phone when switching to 3g from wifi, and the camera doesnt work sometimes.. have to reboot to get it working again, however, i didnt do a clean install, i flashed it over my previous romnt o keep my apps and settings and such... may be an issue, but i need to redo most of my icons anyway, so will probably flash it from a fresh install.. may help me get rid of some of the 180 apps i have on my phone i rarely use.. lol
