Hello, everyone!
I have StreakDroid 1.9.0 installed, and I have a problem with Assisted GPS and 3G. When I leave "Use assisted GPS" check on, and start any application which uses GPS (like Google Maps), my 3G data connection is lost and it can't be restored until reboot. I also have this problem with versions 1.5.3, 1.6.1, 1.8.1, even after factory reset (I've not tried it with 1.9.0 yet, 'cause I don't want reinstall everything again.
Does anyone meet this problem too? How can I solve it?

this is probably best posted in the 1.9 thread of the rom you are using... I do not have these issues running an oem rom like 345.
thats odd, never heard of something like that happening.
Maybe try going to settings > wireless & networks > Mobile Networks and doulbe check your access point names. Maybe toggling the Data enabled box would give it a kick and remind it to keep data on.
Also to update to 1.9 you don't need to factory reset, just flash the .zip from streakmod or clockworkmod recovery, reboot and it should boot with all your apps and data still in place (unless you run into an issue and need to factory reset, but thats why you should do a full nandroid backup before flashing any rom )
Hello, I was setting up my Google Now after I got my Nexus 4 rooted with custom TWRP recovery. I tried to turn on Location History but everytime I flip the On/Off switch I go back and it gets disabled again. Location Reporting still works though..Hopefully someone can help here..Thanks!
EDIT: I fixed it after unrooting and returning to stock.
Hello smart people!
Has anyone else noticed this? The Galaxy note 3 GPS stopped locking. It now flashes continuously but I cannot get a lock.
AGPS is ok and working fine, but I need the GPS for google navigation...
I tried other apps that test the GPS, they are not getting a lock either.I have stock SM-N900, I live in Dubai.. This is not a rooted phone..
I do not remember anything happening to it, it just stopped working.
I was in Germany last week and the GPS (without data) was working great on cached maps!
I think only google maps was updated or something.. I removed the update just to test.. still didn't work..
I cleared the maps cache from "applications".. also not working...
Experts, any advice please?
Thank you!

Cleared the system cache in recovery?
I had GPS issues too. I downloaded the "GPS Status & Toolbox" from "MobiWIA - EclipSim", and ran Tools -> Calibrate Compass. The compass is much more stable now!

The phone is not rooted. Shouldn't it be rooted for that?

No, that's the Dalvik cache. Anyone can clear the system cache.
Solved.
I uninstalled google maps latest update, shut down, removed battery, put it back, restarted. Bingo! Locked in 1 sec.
Thanks for all those who offered to help.
Yesterday i tried to install a navitation application to my phone. everything was fine until i run installed nav app. it says you have to turn on GPS service. i looked up in settings it was ON, i tried to make it OFF then ON again but now i cant turn it on.
i use slimkat 4.4 and AK Kernel
I tried calibrating AGPS and did a cold restart and downloaded GPS assests, via GPS Status app. That didn't work out. This all happened after I flashed this Aroma installer custom ROM.
Any other suggested recourses of action?
