Hello everyone, Anyone could explain to me exactly why the GPS isnt working completely. It works in the map but takes very long to get a lock. I was reading elsewhere that the GPS was not using Cellular antennas to get a signal. I would like to fix but am more curious to know why it isnt working properly.
Can you post all questions relating to Steve's ROM in his thread please

Hey, I really need some help now.. No one anwsered my other threads.
I have problems with my Bluetooth hardware. Sometimes it works (rarely), sometime it does not. It used to work well about 2 months ago. Never really used it anyways. So my first question is: is there any tool available to verify/check/diagnostic the bluetooth hardware?
For the GPS, I'm also having some problems. I get some readings with GPS Viewer, like 4-6 numbers, but nothing else. It doesn't get satellites with Google Maps. Could a reflash of the radio fix this (currently on 3.42.50, which is the latest version)? Could using Bell's aGPS server settings help (btw, if someone has them.. could you PLEASE post them here! I've been searching for them EVERYWHERE) ?
Thanks in advance!
Hi to all
Can someone help me to fix gps on T-Mobile HD2 LEO.
When I try to use it it can't find ant satellites.
Is there any tools to test gps connections or something like that?
Regards
Are you using the stock ROM? If so, I would upgrade to a custom ROM...seems to have fixed it for alot of people.

If there is other ROM you are using and the GPS is working then please let me know.
Is anyone using the XV6900 still able to use the GPS and get a lock? on data.
If so can you please give me the aGPS values.
Or please tell me how you did it. There is a lot of information present,I know this but they all seem too old and I have tried all of them with no luck. At this point I am getting satellites to show up but no locks.
Other question Can I use any aGPS values? for example can I bounce off Sprint?
Radio: 3.42.50
Thread moved to General. It just takes a very long time to lock. If the Vogue is seeing satellites, it means that the GPS is working as it should. I have not tested any of the "fixes" out there, but I have read tons of mixed comments on whether they work or not...
Hi,
I have tried several "fixes" for GPS not being able to find satellites problem. Such as
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1233359 and ANgelDeath's faster Fix.
Is there an out of the box Android nand rom NYC/USA users have used to get their GPS working? If so can you please share your experience and recommend me a solution?
I reside in NYC and am having frustrations getting the GPS to show/find satellites in GPS status.
anybody? bump
bump bump bump
morning bump. no nyc users?
hey i have a friend in philly??? not NYC i know but close ... kinda? i know he makes trips to the city often for work and what have you and has never complained about GPS fixes. he uses the same rom as i, Hyperdroid, and hasn't reported ANY problems. (i was the one who helped him get everything all flashed and ready to go, so my thinking is i would be the first upset/panicked call should it not go smooth)
Hyperdroid is a NON-sense rom. it is (in my opinion, for the HD2) just about the best rom as far as NO FCs, lightning performance, EVERYTHING works.
alright thanks, i am going to try to flash back winmo and test if the gps is working there...
Is it a common problem for the gps hardware to fail on these phones? New to the phone...
Has anyone had this running on ICS i just cant get GPS to see it.
Yes, I'm running it on aurora 2.02. Some had problems in general with GPS location, and it can be fixed with GPS position fix app, like GPS Status & Toolbox from play store.
Also check the newest threads in development forum, you might find other useful suggestions.
Hey mate thanks sort of got it running can you explain how please?

Find the section with GPS FIXES and detailed instructions will be there. Hope that solves the GPS problem.
I have the same problem with other navigation apps from time to time. Inside the program drag down the status bar and disable and enable gps several times, this way it works for me.
You could flash the newest test version of Aurora (2.03), gps problems seem to be solved. See the development thread.
I can't confirm, as I haven't flashed yet the new version.

The newest build 2.04 still has NTPS server set to asia. Otherwise GPS works OK. If you get long time for GPS to connect, put the phone on some surface, because hands can block some signal reception.
Just flashed 2.04, looks good so far.
I just tried GPS in my room, agps data deleted and no data connection / wireless. Set the NTPS server to Germany with the app FasterGPS. Well, it took about 5 minutes to get a fix with 10 satellites but it works Tested with GPS Status, Osmand & Locus Pro
