For me this is what has worked...
For GPS I can confirm removing sd card allowed my gps to work correct. With card in can not get a fix from interntal antenna, remove card and it works good.
For ATT Sim card radio shack has a go phone for $14 bucks buy it and call att and swap to the new sim card that comes with the go phone. Dont let ratshack activate the go phone. The first store i went to would not let me. The second store asked me and I said no.
--- Low Battery Booting Issue: I can report that I was able to reanimate my FreeRunner having an almost empty battery by pressing the AUX button and then attaching the USB power. A normal boot using the power button was not possible in any battery/USB power configuration, a kernel panic (red blinking LED) always occured.
For me it worked to connect the Neo to power source and then boot via aux button, too.
Workaround: I leave this script running in the background to start charging again every half hour if the device is plugged in.
#!/bin/bash i2c_dir="/sys/devices/platform/s3c2440-i2c/i2c-adapter/i2c-0/0-0073" force_usb="${i2c_dir}/force_usb_limit_dangerous" charger_type="${i2c_dir}/charger_type" while true; do charger=$(cut -c 1-4 ${charger_type}) if [ ${charger} != "none" ] ; then echo -n 500 > ${force_usb} fi sleep 1800 done
