Home button does not work. The external SD does not exist in this recovery. Meaning that in PG's build, a different recovery is installed.

You don't need to switch with the home method CM10 Builds use the actual CWM not the recovery app. Look under the menu for install from zip there's an option at the bottom to choose an external SD
 
Guys, don't waste your time on this. I posted earlier in this thread about the GPS. I tried the PG and BobZ builds, I tried the C modem, I tried the A-GPS fix and the GPS toolbox and FasterGPS and one or two other fixes people mentioned, and none of it improved the GPS Navigation by one iota.

By all means, continue to play around and see if you can fix the problem. But if you're reading this, and you just want your GPS to work and aren't interested in debugging or being a beta tester, stay away from flashing CM until this is fixed. Some people have GPS working, but the majority of us don't and can't fix it. My suspicion is that it's going to take a breakthrough from PG or BobZ to get this going in an updated version of the ROM.

IMHO the original post should be changed to say that GPS is thoroughly and totally broken for a significant portion of the userbase. The way it is now, the OP just makes it sound like it might take a few extra seconds for a small segment of people, which is much more optimistic than the real situation.

I'd advise staying away from the CM10 Builds if you do games alot due to the sound issues and constant freezing. Some games work from a while then fail some dont work at all
 
I have a theory about the gps issue. I don't think that when you flash CM10 that the phone is actually using GPS. My GPS lock on with ease at home on my wifi network and i think thus is due to the fact that wifi has location data built into it. When I'm moving on mobile network my location is never accurate, it's usually leaning towards the cell towers.


Tested this idea today on Pg's and BobZ build. Drove around with only maps open to see if I could get a lock. Only got a lock at Starbucks and McDonald's because of here wifi. Turned my gps off completely and maps acted the same exact way bouncing around constantly but never locking on. Also noticed that when using Navigation it always says search for GPS on my device so I grabbed the GPS tool to test if my GPS was communicating with any satellites always got 0/0

Hope some of this info helps. Someone may need to take a look at the file the controls whether GPS is on. It may only be stating to the phone that gps is on but never actually turning it on.

That's the thing though, gaming is fine on this build, its just playful gods that has the issue. Thanks for replying :)
 
So games work full on bobz now atleast that's one thing out if the way. Wish pg n bobz would make CM together would be epic.

Call volume??? But toggle your power button a few times and your screen will shut down. I had the same problem. Slight glow but a serious drain

Dude why don't you just upload it and post a link
 
when you first install bobz's latest rom, the backlight works fine but as you install games and apps it starts getting worse among other issues. i can't tell you why this works but it does so try this. backup your music and pictures folders and any other critical data on internal sd. then flash the 6.0.2.7 recovery (link in the lounge) then go into recovery and goto mounts and storage. then format /sdcard (internal sd) then reboot and backlight and other issues should be fine again.
after you do this, try the gps fixes detailed in post around the forum. you might find success then. i would try the gps.conf from pg rom or the gps fix from xda. just sayin.
