I had this once. Not sure if this was what actually fixed it but what I did was download AngryGPS and GPS Aids. Then you use GPSAids to download XTRA files and run the GPS Doctor. Then run AngryGPS in TTFF test mode overnight.
It may also help to set GPS to MSBASED in AngryGPS.

same problem here...

Gps works for me on RemICS-1.3.
I did a factory reset before installing, if that matters...

Try using faster fix to set your region, then use gps aids, clear agps in settings, go outside, request update agps, then go to main gps aids screen and wait for a good fix (can take a couple of minutes first time) then subsequently you should get a good fix pretty fast.....mine takes 15 seconds

GPS not working

I have had my phone for about a month. GPS used to work flawlessly, but for the past week or so the icon just blinks in the notification bar. anybody have any ideas?

Here is a suggestion from another member:
Download gps status from the market. Menu->Tools->A gps->Reset then the same but download instead of reset. That resets all internal gps data. That fixed my gps problem.
Hope this helps....
Awesome. Thank you so much. Worked like a charm. And that app is pretty cool too.

Problem with Chainfire3D and wifi

Hi guys.
First off,I have a problem with my wifi.When I am connected and have the screen turned off for some minutes,it's like I lose connection.The wifi is connected,but I have no internet and I have to turn wifi off and back on to be able to use my internet again.
Secondly,I have a problem(kind of) with chainfire3D.I choose a plugin and click fix market.However,I can see no extra apps.And what's worse I have bought Asphalt 6 from the market and I cannot install it!It won't show up no matter what I do!And it happens generally,not only with Asphalt.No additional stuff shows up on market.
I am on KE7 with KF1 CF-Root kernel if it matters.
Thanks guys,I hope someone can help.It ain't nice knowing I threw money away,don't you agree?

Bump!
Sorry for insisting but my nerves aren't in the best state they could be.
Wifi problem seems to be gone with Cognition 1.0.4.Chainfire3D/market one persists though.

GPS Test Status with ERA V3.1

Just an FYI, using GPS Test Status from the Market and on the ERA EI22 V3.1 ROM, I got 5/5 satellite lock in about 10 seconds, from my basement (which normally has HORRIBLE service)

shouldn't this be in the ERA thread?

Its is, but thought it would be valuable in General, seeing as GPS seems to be the biggest prevailing issue with the new ROMS.
What about after several reboots? Does your gps still work?
What program are you using to check the # of satelights you connect to?

I have rebooted 3 or 4 times today and still get 5/5 locking very quickly. The app is GPS Test Status in the market, it is free.

GPS with 2.3.5

I updated my software that Sprint pushed roughly 2 wks ago. Using the new Telanav with 2.3, I realize it's more buggy. It takes long to load, often drops gps signal, and restarts whenever I get an incoming call. Anybody having these issues?

Should have never updated. To save battery Samsung cut back on satellite locks. Root with a custom kernel orf ROM with the GPS fix.

Clear the data and cache for that app, then "uninstall the update" and then reopen it and reinstall when prompted...or freeze the app after you root and use Google Nav instead!

Won't change the fact that GPS on stock sucks.

Yes.that is his problem. Not Telenav. Telenav works fine. It is his GPS that locks up Telenav.

I've heard about the GPS Fix, but I can't find it. Any ideas where it is? The search didn't help me, I guess I haven't gotten the hang of the weird XDA search.
I have a stock rooted EI22.
Thanks!

Problem with location/checkins/

Hi there,
since I've installed Cyanogen10 on my phone I have this issue. When I try to check in somewhere through Facebook, Foursquare, etc simply I can't, it says that the phone couldn't find any location, when i've enabled all the location settings. Same happens when I try to locate myself on Google Maps, and looks like GPS isn't working att all.
Any suggestion? Should I have to change the modem files? Which one?
Thanks in Advance
