I upgraded my SHR just yesterday (hey! my terminal is a different
color scheme?!) and I have rxerr in dmesg *and* GPS works fine in
TangoGPS. I thought TangoGPS was a little slow getting a fix today but
by the time I opened omgps to look closer at the satelite data, it was
3D fix.

[   46.875000] Restarting tasks ... done.
[   48.660000] rxerr: port=1 ch=0x00, rxs=0x0000000c
[   51.645000] rxerr: port=1 ch=0x00, rxs=0x0000000c
[   55.950000] rxerr: port=1 ch=0x00, rxs=0x0000000c

I suspended the phone once before using it today (I think that's the
"Restarting tasks") and I have a 4GB SDHC memory card.
Hope that helps!
