GPS worse running Bionix 1.2.1 - Vibrant General

So I decided to root and install Bionix on my phone after the Kies 2.2 update pretty much destroyed my phone.
I've searched on the forum so far to no avail.... My GPS is far worse running the Bionix-V 1.2.1 rom... The rom is absolutely wonderful, but the GPS takes minutes to catch on, then when it finally does get signal, it either has me going in the wrong direction, or a street over or something... which doesn't help any.... but then after about a half hour it will finally work normally...
Does anyone have a fix for this as I sold my cars dashboard stupid garmin GPS cuz I had my awesome Google Nav... in which the GPS doesn't work... Yippeee... What a dumb mistake.

GPS really slow to fix on a signal on mine too. Sorry, I can't provide many details cuz i'm a noob.

try out,a,different modem. Personally I have,good results (gps) with jl5 and kb1 modems. Scrizz has a list of,them in,his,sig. Or check his,thread in,the development thread. On,a side note, I hate how the comma is placed next to the space bar in swype!

I recommend downloading SGS Tools from the Market and using that to get into LBSTestMode and deleting your GPS Data. If that doesn't work, flash a different modem.
I had the same problem you're describing. Deleting GPS Data cleared it up immediately.

My bad, come to think of it, it might have been pulled from the market. You can find the latest version here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=775154&page=37

I remember coming across an interesting thread about a month ago which provided instructions on how to physically modify the gps contacts on the circuit board so that it made a better contact with the gps antenna, thus improving the gps once and for all regardless which ROM you use. As one can expect, this is not for the faint of heart. Since I don't use my phone for its gps, I didn't have any reason to try the solution out. The only reason I remember it was because it was the first time I've read of a non-software solution for the gps issues that plague these phones.
If you were inclined to try it, I would imagine that you can locate the article easily by googleing it. If not, pm me and I'll see if I can find the article in my browsers history.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

It's the link in my signature. Although if his GPS was working before flashing the new ROM it's most likely fixable without having to crack open his phone. You're right, it's not for the feint of heart, and sadly it appears to be a necessary thing for most SGS owners to undertake.

Oh my bad, didn't realize you already provided the link.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

Well, I guess I technically did but I didn't mention it....plus it is kinda small in my signature. No worries

I have sgs tools installed already. I have the latest version. I hit gps fix but same results.
The gps on this phone has never worked correctly since i bought the phone in august.
What do you mean flash a new modem. Could u provide a newb guide.
Thank you guys, or if someone has another suggestion please list it.
Thanks!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

Don't hit GPS Fix. Do this:
Secret Codes > GPS-Test and settings (LBSTestMode) > Delete GPS Data
You can flash a new modem the same way you flashed the ROM through ClockWork, but try deleting GPS data first. Personally, I prefer the KA7 or KB1 modem for GPS, but every device is different.

I tried RyanZA's 2-3 batch file fix and I'm not having any problems...to which bugs are you referring?
The bug I’m aware of happens with apps that store data (such as texture) on the sd card outside of the new partition. Some games such as Asphalt 5, Homerun Battle 3d, heavy Gunner, maps... This is a problem with all the lags fixes. If you don't use those apps or apps like that it probably won't affect you.
For instance the load times for Homerun Battle were three times longer on start up, if it started up. I had several times where my phone just shut off. If it eventfully did start it would run fine. Chainfire talks about the bug in his thread found here.

Played around with maps, gps on/off, zillow app., switching back and forth and phone froze on Alpha 1 as well as 2.3. Also this is a know issue and I got it too, on 2.3 I was not able to change fonts. And I hate default font
When i use RyanZA lagfix it works but when i reboot the phone everything gets screwed up anyone have this problem itll take ages to boot up and when it does alot of force closes and widgets outta place etc
Use chainfire. I believe it may be the safest, easily the most automatic one.

whats the story with this damn gps

got the phone a few days ago and the gps has yet to find my location. it has NEVER worked.
now i just did the whole root/cwm/voodoo thing. im hoping that doesnt mess it up even more.
just wondering if i should be worried about the phone it self. i know people complain about the gps but i would expect it to work at least occasionally.

but be careful, you'll need to reinstall your apps if you do that, but if you flashed the rom again you'd have to do that anyways.

I've had great battery with Macnut R13.
I've actualy never had below 24 hours unplugged.
but fair warning: some people say the opposite so I may have just got lucky.
It seems to be about 50/50 have good battery life or dont lol
Also I hear great things about Team Whiskeys roms.
as well as Auxura (Although the guy developing the rom recently stopped development on it)
if you want to stay with 2.1 you might try team whiskey
or if you like 2.2 then any of the above would be great roms
everyone has their own opinion though so you might try a few before you find one you like alot.
Okay one more question... let's say I flash a rom right now... then flash another tomorrow... will the one I did the day before be completely erased when I flash a new one I've heard of people experiencing bugs and this happened ..

Generaly yes you should not have a problem.
but if you do run into trouble you can use odin to start clean, in fact alot of people prefer to use odin to get back to stock before flashing any rom.
but its up to you, I generaly only use odin if things start acting weird (which is next to never)

If your phone is under warranty then you'd do a warranty exchange. If it's not then you could buy a new camera assembly for it but that wouldn't guarantee to fix the problem as the hardware error could be on the main board somewhere. It's most likely a software problem. Since you're rooted you can just reflash the camera firmware.
Have you tried a 3rd party camera app?
Its been a few months since I rooted my cell, the camera was always working unroll the other day, and which apps are you talking about, and where would I get the drivers for my camera? And would a rom fix it?

Goto the market and download Retro Camera, it's free and while I don't personally care for it, if it can take pictures then you can prove that your camera hardware still works.
As for camera firmware you can try this, it's clockwork flashable and should work on 2.2 and 2.2.1 altho it is pulled from an older 2.2 build. Some people have had luck with it, other have not http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10952849/Camera-Stock-signed.zip Use at your own risk, I am not responsible if you phone slips into null space.
Assuming that your camera is not working because of a software glitch then yes, a new rom should fix the problem.
Thanks for the assistance, but retro camera won't work, said something about unable to set up and report my cell and model number to etc......ok, now that it has to be a hardware malfunction, how do I unroot and get the bloatware back on for the warranty?

NOOOO
What does it mean to Flash?
My version: It means you are going to replace your current system image/OS with one that you have downloaded from one of our wonderful developers.... you flash a rom by installing the .zip file you download from XDA or the developers site. You flash them using Clockwork Recovery (which is part of Rom Manager in the market)
XDA wiki: Term meaning to write something (usually a ROM image) to a non-volatile chip. The term originates from original chip writers (EPROM blowers) which used to write to a chip by fusing tiny areas in the chip making individual links either short circuit or open circuit.

Well this would make it one. This particular firmware gps problem is not related to whatever patch does, therefore it is not solved by a patch. Now if someone has idea or solution....

I can confirm that this worked for me today:
I had just installed Omega 33, and was trying to use GPS to navigate, but was not getting a good on my location (although I seemed to have a certain amount of accuracy to my position). I turned the GPS off and on again, and what little accuracy present went away and I never got the GPS lock.
I used the app known as "Fasterfix" from the play store. It needs root privileges in order for it to modify the "GPS.conf" file.
I live in India. Hence I chose my server as Asia-> India (it sets it to in.pool.ntp.org or something like that). There was no need to reboot. After this, I was successfully able to navigate without any problems.
Try it out and let me know whether it works.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
My problem was never getting a fast lock, it was holding onto it. When I would press navigate i would drive certain distance and would notice my position is few streets behind, then would get prompt gps lost, never to return. Turn off gps toggle, turn on later, aquire lock. Rinse and repeat.

Still, your heaven-reaching intelligence is unable to provide link to citation that this patch is not working? Well, ok, you may be busy learning how to distinguish between web page and video...

Finally, feel free to not test any patch, but to look on the video created especially for you in the web by someone special...

You are the one trying to prove something you should provide the link because obviously you know of a thread full of people who have had it work. You can't spout crap as facts then say its up to others to prove it.
