[Q] ParanoidAndroid GPS Issue - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just installed ParanoidAndroid, latest build and latest gapps after a clean flash. I've only used stock up until now but figured I'd give it a shot (although I've done plenty of ROM installation, etc. on my last phone).
Everything works great except GPS; I can't get a fix at all. I tried getting assistance data with GPS Status, tried rebooting, no luck. It just keeps waiting for a fix. Any idea what's wrong?

[Q] GPS not working on CM7

Hi all,
so yesterday I flashed CM7 on my Legend after having Modaco's Customized ROM installed. However, I have the same issue as some users with GPS. I've tried flashing all different Radio versions available, but I just can't get a GPS fix (neither with Maps nor with GPS Status).
Does anyone have a solution to this?
Thanks!
My Gps only works when i use this radio version 7.08.35.21 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=706435
i'm CM7 nightly built 42 to...
hello,
I had problems myself with the cm7 stable. gps was not working. But then wipe data, cache and cache dalvik, re-flash cm7, install radio 7.08, gapps... then boot... made the apps restore reboot again. then turn on gps status and in 20secs had a fix with 7 satelites.
this is my contribution to the comunity.
Edit: I Just wanna say that is working but not 100%. So i believe, that should have some bug fix in the next days. because not every legend respond well with the two radio that people says to install.

[Q] Issues loading 4.3 rom

Hi Guys,
Just wondering if anyone's knows of a fix for, or even the cause of issues with the SGS4 and Android 4.3 roms.
I have tried 6 different ROMS over the last 3 days and with all of them I get the same result. The ROM flashes fine, the phone reboots in to the ROM and I can set everything up. The ROM will work perfectly for as long as I leave the phone on. For every ROM, as soon as I restart the phone for the first time, it hangs at the SGS4 logo, before the cyanogen spinning circle or the google circles, and does not proceed.
The only way I have found to get it working after it is in this state is to clear the cache, dalvik AND data.
Most of my attempts have been with the CM 10.2 ROM, 10.1 works perfectly but 10.2 has the same issue.
I have tried it with just the ROM, with the ROM and Gapps, with the ROM, Gapps and SuperUser and nothing seems to work.
Just FYI I am using the internation gt-i9505 roms with TWRP (latest version).
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

[Q] GPS not working

GPS seemed to have been working up until I flashed one of the CM11 or other Kit Kat roms. I've since gone back to CM10.2 (stable), but I can't get a gps lock. Does anyone have suggestions to get this working? I have the Verizon version.
I've tried resetting A-GPS data with the GPS Status app and also by setting the regions with Android Tweaker. Neither seems to have done anything. Really hoping my GPS radio isn't borked.

Just had this same problem, I had to flash back my original nandroid (stock ota) to get a gps lock, thought my hardware was crapped as well. But I am guessing if you dont use your gps for a long time it loses the info for sats. I tried flashing PA ram, gummy, CM11 nothing would get a lock, so I said **** it, going to return it, put stock image back on and wallah, it came back, reflashed my OSE rom and it worked, worked in pa again as well and gummy.
I also tried the gps fix lg g2 zip thats out there, nothing, tried the recalibration from 5 different compass apps and gps "fix apps" nothing.

I unfortunately lost my stock ota backup . I tried flashing this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2533018), and I got stuck in the Verizon bootloop. I'm using TWRP 2.6.3.3.
I'm unfortunately on a Mac and can't follow the steps outlined here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476). Any help would be great. This is driving me crazy!

Flash back the original 2.6.3.2, (follow the first twrp/rooting steps that you did, but minus the rooting, just the installing of twrp. Then flash one of the stock OTA images from the verizon forum.

I ended up downloading and flashing a Malladus ROM (based on stock). I managed to get a GPS lock after that (hooray!). I'd assume if I jumped back to CM now, I'd be all set.

[Q] Odd GPS issue is killing me.

I currently have the last temasek cm11 build on my phone. GPS works fine. No problem at all. If I switch ROMs and restore my data, GPS still works fine.
However, the GPS will NOT work AT ALL on *any* other ROM I try. Whether it's AOSP cm11 or cm12. Whether it's a samsung build. Whether it's a stock samsung build. GPS will NOT lock. I run GPS Status apps and it just sits trying to get a lock, forever. Nothing.
Flash back my current ROM. BOOM. GPS Works fine.
IF I flash another AOSP build and DON'T wipe data/cache/etc.. GPS will still work fine. It only breaks when I do a clean install.
So, wtf? What could possibly be on my /data that is keeping my GPS working, and some how not even touchwiz ROMs also contain? It's an 900T, and currently on AOSP, so the codes I see floating around don't work. Granted, I could flash a touchwiz ROM and try them again, but right now GPS is working as long as I'm on one ROM, I'm afraid to use the code and completely break GPS. It just doesn't seem to be something at that deep of a level as flashing back to my current ROM always fixes it. Which tells me it's some simple config that I need.
Anyone know what the heck could be causing the problem? My cm11 build is sooo dirty from xposed and massive tweaking that bluetooth and other things lock up daily, so I really want to run another ROM or at least do a clean install, but I can't lose my GPS. It's used daily.

Wifi fix not working

So i was using ambasadi stock deoxed rom with imperium kernel and my wifi stopped working out of the blue.
I had a problem with it before eventually got a modem that was working fine. Tried everything from the posts wifi fix reinstalled different roms modems and kernels etc.. still cant get it running. Before a random the wifi fix didnt work as intended i just kept installing different modems and eventually one worked. No luck this time though.
Any ideas ladies and gents?!
