Did you use airplane mode ? Sometimes, it crashes my GPS too. I just have to reboot to fix it.
Does GPS Test / GPS status work ?
No, i dont use the airplane mode..... from the first boot it didnt worked
what can i do?
Is "settings> display> rotation> Auto rotate screen" turned on?
does gps status app show a working compass?
Does google maps or any maps app work?

hi i installed android froyo 2.2 on my htc hd2, its running well. but the problem is internet, there is no internet connectivity on my phone, how i can activate internet on my htc hd2 ? and if i reboot my phone than windows 6.5 wil start, if i want to start again than i have to install android again ?
waiting for some help xD
sounds like you are using an sd version this is normal, you really should read the sticky threads
as for internet you probably havent put the apn settings in
I need help. When I turn my phone to landscape mode it gets stuck in that mode. When I turn off the auto-rotate it goes back to normal. When im in a call the light sensor doesn't work either. Any suggestions?

Landscape mode, it might just be a weird g-sensor. Shake the phone a bit maybe that'll help. I know it did that in WinMo, but haven't had that problem with Android yet so I'm not sure.
For the light sensor (the official term is proximity sensor) there's a setting for it. Settings -> Call Settings -> Always use proximity.
That should help.
Thanks but it didn't help.

Did you try recalibrating your G-sensor and rebooting? As for the proximity sensor I don't have a solution. Try the search button ;-)

Hi guys,
I've installed Trigger 3.2 and flashed the S.GPS fix, im trying to use the GPS using the "NAVIGATION" app but it wont lock on signal... it keeps showing me this "сhecking navigation availability" message while the gps icon on tray keeps flashing...
i left it a coupe of times for half an hour but it still wont lock on signal...
the starnge thing is i tested it using "GPS TEST" app and the apps shows that the GPS DO work and it allready found 12 birds and is using like 8 right now...
what do you guys think could be the problem?...
I just tried it on trigger 3.3 beta. At first it did as your saying. I reflashed the s.zip fix, went to gps test after reboot got a good lock. Then ran navigation no problem.
When I was still stock gps test was the only way I could get mine to work. So its habit for me to use it to get a lock then go about maps/navigation.
Dunno might work might not.

The fix does it itself. No need to do it manually.
Same problem. Ether way the GPS on the Vibrant sucks monkey balls. Horrible compared to other android devices! And there is not a good fix for that! Tried about 20 Roms and GPS still sucks even tried 4 Vibrants devices. Sh*t out of luck! Nice screen but crappy GPS.

I used to think that too. But i recently grap a captivate from my friend and i suppose they have the same GPS as we do. Very crappy for Froyo, but once i flash it with
Andromeda 3

I was totally surprise with the GPS lock.. It takes forever to lock before i flash this rom. But after using this ROM.. guess what? within a few seconds i got the gps lock. I don't know what they do over there but it sure works.. I need to find out what are they fixes and see if they are able to work on my Vibrant or not.
Seriously GPS lock in a few seconds for Galaxy S device is just simply magic. Let me know if anyone know what they did on that rom that make it sooo much better.
THanks
Ok, i followed this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=912777
and installed "Waze", with this app the gps finds birds and gets a lock in seconds with great accuracy!
but on the Navigation app it still wont find them...
Is anyone else having this problem? Stock, not rooted.

No problem here with .27 as my gps work excellent so far. Here how you could try rectify it yourself. Go to play store and download GPS Status tool. Run it and hit settings - tools - manage gps - reset cache, next still in manage gps download cache. And try see if it locked any satellite.

Thank you. I did what you suggested and the problem continues.

Reboot the TF101. first time locking satellite might take some time after using the gps status tool.. Stay cool while waiting.. Have a beer..

Best thing to do is go outside and lock out there after you clear your cache and settings. I use GPS TEST+ from the market.
If you have root try installing a program called FasterGPS from the market. It will sync your time with NTP before your GPS tries to lock and may shorten the time needed to lock onto a signal indoors.
I have had an issue with G Maps for awhile now. The position seems to fix fine sometimes with gps, but then it will start to jump around and become unreliable. I don't believe it to be a problem with the gps radio as the gps test app checks out fine, the nav app works fine, orux maps with the gmaps overly works fine. I tried to uninstall the app but being a system app has made it difficult. I have also rolled back up dates but that didn't help. I am on the newest version now. I am running Nottachtrix with faux oc kernal. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

When I was on nottrix I used the gps fix from the neutrino rom by notorious544d it's one of his addons gps mod . Unzip and use your region ,there is some directions in the zip.
It worked for me on nottrix and works on cm10 epinter rom that I am using now.
G Maps appears to be dodgy on some roms. I have a problem on stock rom with later versions of gmaps where gps would get a lock, but gmaps would only report the cell tower location. Downgrading to 5.8 solved my problem.

+1 on the downgrade....I've had nothing but problems with Maps 6+ where I was never able to get a lock at all. I recommend getting GPS status to make sure that your GPS is working, this is how I discovered that it was G Maps because it showed that my device GPS was working perfectly. Downgraded and it works flawlessly. Good luck!
I flashed a clean version of wet dream and maps seems to be working great again on version 6.2. I probably wont try to update since its working. Thanks for all the replies

New Google Map forces you to turn on Wifi
The new version of Google Map forces you to turn on Wifi regardless of any hotspot. As soon as I turn on Wifi, GPS on my Atrix is locked.
BTW, GPS on Google Navigation still locks when wifi is off.
OK, I installed the latest gmaps 6.10 and the compass seems smoother than ever but the gps location still isn't reported despite getting a lock. One solution that does work though is to switch off network location and you will get an accurate gps fix. Unsure whether to downgrade or not now :-$
Anyone know how to file a bug report with Google?
Sent from my Atrix
I've experienced the same issue as OP, occasionally reports my location hundreds of meters away. Maps 6.10 was released just a few days ago so I will report back.
Well, I left GPS on while at home and in the last hour it's been slowly creeping to a location 1km from where I actually am. Gonna try the neutrino gps fix next.
EDIT:Wow it doubled my satellite count from 5 to 10 at home. Let's see what it does for jumpy accuracy.
Great sucess! No jumps in 8 hours since applying neutrino gps fix.

I tried same application in same are with stock i9300. it immedately locks and disconnect. So its about software and settings issue for sure
Im open for any advice. I hope I can find a solution asap.
Thanks

Try this (i always do this when i flash new rom)
Install a compas im using holo compass. Open it and do the 8 figure gestures. If you dont know what that is google/youtube it. Very very easy. Then go outside (backyard will do) and install *gps status* and open it. Turn on gps and select reset xtra data then after a few 2-3 seconds click get xtra data and within 1 minute or so u should get excellent gps. Whenever you think gps is crap jus open that app and everything will work fine. I have only used it once but still keep it just in case
