Just did fresh install of v6 over stock so voicemail would work, and network based location still isn't working for me. But the fc's are gone! Nice job on this Rom btw, it's my new favorite. I didn't realize how long it took cm7 to connect to Wi-Fi till I installed this Rom. GPS rocks on this Rom!

Ginger break did not work. I reflash my whole system, hoping that would fix it. It didn't :-(.
I went ahead and downloaded the superuser Flashable zip from the website, and now it's working perfectly
Thanks for the feedback. It may be flashing over Ver5, you can try wiping cache and Dalvik cache, that way you won't lose your setup. I was testing from scratch, so I just went ahead and setup from there. I just tried Satellite AR and it worked fine, also Gas Buddy works fine for me. I found that on first boot, some of the apps that use location take a minute to get a lock. You can just open maps and get a lock and then the apps work flawlessly. While researching I found that a lot of newer apps look for last location, so I found that after you have gotten a lock they all work just fine.
Did you enable agps in Location & security settings? I did test the gps with out agps enabled, it took a while, had to walk around my back yard a couple times, but it still took less time than on stock. But with agps turned on it will lock in my house in a few seconds, excluding first lock. I think they might have covered up the gps antenna or something in the phone, that makes our gps suck, but with agps it is crazy fast.

Sorry, you must have been one of the 10 people that downloaded it before I caught the problem. You can check the MD5 or just download it again, as the link is fixed now.
A big THANKS to all of the early adopters for the feedback, testing, and kind words. I would have never found all the bugs without you guys. Sorry for all the versions, Ver6 should be the last major system overhaul, so any updates from here out should be small changes.

I'm still not understanding this dirty install thing to fix *86. I was on version 5 and wiped data and cache before flashing b_randon's deodexed stock. I flashed the deodexed stock rom and let it fully boot up. Then I flashed ver6 without wiping any data or cache. *86 still doesn't work. Am I doing the dirty install right or is it that I'm using the deodexed version and should be using the other? Just curious about it.
It is still a beautiful ROM by far. :thrasher:

Thanks, I edited the dirty install directions to make sure this will work. To be sure that the fix sticks, send yourself a voicemail before you start the process, then wait until you get the voicemail notification in the Stock ROM, make sure it shows your number, then power down and flash Ver6 or newer. That should take care of it. I only had it not stick once, and I think it was because I shut down the phone before it connected to the network to be able to set the voicemail number. Hope this clears things up.
Edit: I have wiped cache and dalvik cache and the fix was still there. I think that, to fix this, there will have to be a major framework overhaul and the stock phone.apk will have to be used. I posted the info needed when I was trying to get the MMS working. There are calls for getActiveProfile, getCdmaMin, getDeviceEsn, getDeviceId, getLine1Number, getSiwaKey, throughout the phone stuiff.
I am using the Go Dialer app from Go Dev Team to get around the voice mail *86 issue.
Go Dialer allows me to set speed dial numbers corresponding to to each key (except the 1 key). I entered my phone number as the speed dial for the 2 key. Now I long press the 2 key and I am dialing my voice mail.
I am sure other dialers have this feature but Go Dialer was the first one I tried.

Yes, and my GPS is working great, but I was saying that my network based location wasn't working for some apps.
Sorry I was still waking up, I just reread your post and if you could give me some examples I can test some things out. Thanks for the response.

I did a fresh install of ver6 and I'm having charging issues using USB. Even with the screen off it is charging painfully slow. Over the course of 6 hours last night, it went from 25% to 86%. There doesn't appear to be any apps running either. Anybody else having these issues?
After the clean install, the wifi sleeping issues I reported before went away.

I'm not the person you replied to, but, as I mentioned, in v6 Gas Buddy wouldn't get a location until I moved my phone to a location where GPS would work: It didn't obtain a network based location.
I did wipe cache and Dalvik cache immediately before AND immediately after flashing v6 over v5. I also uninstalled and reinstalled Satellite AR, and it still won't get a location. I did try opening Maps first, and Maps works fine with GPS location (but Maps doesn't seem to work with Network/WiFi location like it does in other ROMS), but still nothing in Satellite AR. Looks like I'll have to try a clean v6 install since you say Satellite AR is getting a location for you in v6.
Also, do you have Satellite AR set to use Fine GPS or to use Course Network location? Can you try both settings within Satellite AR settings menu, and let me know if both work for you?
Thanks for the feedback, the more details the easier it is for me to figure out.
I see the issue now and better understand it. Satellite AR will work on coarse or fine but will not work with use wireless networks enabled. I'll see what I can do and make a patch for those with ver6 so you won't have to reinstall, if I can.

The battery life on this ROM is absolutely phenomenal! I can't express that enough. I've had it off the charger for days and had 30% of my battery left where with CM7 it'd die within the course of a day at most. Thanks so much, my experience has changed ten-fold!

What does the NetworkLocation.APK do?

I've noticed too lol...i'd say it's slightly better than cm7. Shocking for a froyo rom
Patience grasshoppa. Had to test it before I released it.Can't find the flashable zip
It is an app that allows Gapps to use network location, which uses googles database of wireless routers and cell towers to find your location. I should have had it from the start but completely overlooked it.
Not mine. It seems to drain faster than CM7 Reloaded for me. This ROM dies in under 1 ordinary day for me, and CM7 could usually, but not always, make it through a day.

I see. I flashed it regardless because you said it was good.
