[Q] Location not working on KitKat - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just updated to KitKat (with the PA build). Everything works perfect, except the location settings. Google Now says that it is not activated even when it is. Same with the News&Weather app. In Google Maps it waits forever trying to localize me.
Does somebody have the same problem or known a fix for this?

Nope, location is working great for me. I am using the Mako odexed port.
If I am not mistaking PA released new gapps; try flashing it.

I have the last one (20131107). I will try to flash it again, just in case.
Update: As imagined, no changes. Can you post the link to the rom you are using, please?
Update 2: Just flashed the following rom (I don't know if it is the same you mentioned):
http://au.ibtimes.com/articles/519495/20131105/lg-nexus-4-manually-install-android-kitkat.htm#.UoEu4VXEA6C
and everything is working like a charm. Actually, it works MUCH FASTER!

[Q] CM7 RC1 + Baseband 13.55.55.24H_3.35.20.10 => No GPS

Hello,
I just flashed the first release candidate of CM7 on my Wildfire and also the latest radio from here and my GPS still doesn't work. (it hasn't worked with any CM7+basedband combination so far for me.
Any suggestions?
Another method is to wipe everything, Flash the original CM7 Nightly #0 (Not the re-numbered ones). Then, flash the new one (RC1 in your case) after just wiping cache and dalvik cache.
Thanks. Do you also know wher I can still find the nightly #0? It's not listed at mirror.teamdouche.net anymore.

Out of interest, how long did the first boot take and did the loading screen freeze for a while? Sorry to hijack the thread!

Around 4-5 minutes, and, the circular animation does get stuck for a few seconds, especially when nearing the end. Its normal.

Three different radios here (post #1, section #4) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1029318
FWIW, I fixed my GPS simply by reflashing 13.55.55.24H_3.35.20.10 - didn't have to revert to an earlier radio.

Fingerprint scanner not working after installing DarkSide

Is there a fix for this? I had found one fix but it doesn't work... still not detecting..
Which version did you install?
For me its working fine on the latest version.
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
The darkside rom has nothing to do with it, your scanner might be on the fritz !
When you installed the rom, did you use moto-fastboot to erase everything so you get a nice clean install?
Also, sometimes the scanner acts up, try rebooting and "GO DIRECTLY" into settings and try setting up the scanner that way.
Good luck!
I updated to the newest one.. it was working perfectly fine right before that.. yeah i did a clean install..
so I did what the second guy said but i also installed this fingerprint fix i found on the site... i did them both at the same time.. but it worked!!
ALTHOUGH the fix didnt work earlier... so could be going to the settings directly
thank you so much!!

Install Jelly Bean 4.2 Keyboard from the market and use that one instead
I can't download from the market on account of I don't have a working keyboard. ill try downloading the apk.
there must be something wrong with gapps. it runs fine before installing gapps. after installing gapps i installed the keyboard but the rom is very unresponsive, the account setup kept glitching, couldnt get the market to connect to the internet, and the home button doesnt work. whats going on? would someone mind sending me a backup that is working and already has gapps installed or point me in the direction where i can find that.
Maybe you flashed wrong GAPPS package?

I had the same thing happen to me with the keyboard crashing after gapps. Sure enough I installed the wrong one.

I've tried a couple and the same thing happens. The one I've been using is gapps-jb-20121212.zip. I'll try again.
I'm downloading the one off of cyanogenmod website under nexus 7 grouper. I'm pretty sure I don't have the gsm version but I'll check.

What's the deal with cm development on this tablet. I even just tried to download the play store apk and it force closes.
Idk I am pretty dissapointed because I've always loved the CM ROMs but thats what XDA is for.

I'm having the same difficulty with CM 10 on a Sony Xperia Arc. Have tried multiple kernels (included with CM Roms, or not) and Gapps packages. If it is possible to load a stock or other keyboard after flashing a ROM, I'd like to hear about this.

What is a Good Rom for this phone.

What is a good rom to run on this phone? I have tried a few and can't seem to find anything that works with out issue. I tried the latest SlimRom which I liked but It doesn't allow me root access. So apps like titanium backup don't work I've tried I think its OEO or something of that nature and it was ok and I don't care for CM11.
I am using the stock rom that came with the phone I think that is ICS

I have never found a more functional rom than mhous33 dst stock or the avistralia deodexed mod.
All the cm, pacman, aokp...... never work FOR ME in all the capacities of stock.
About TiBu, I have always found issues with it.
I use recovery advanced restore to move apps.
You can move your stock data to both the dst & avistralia roms.

Did you try flashing supersu in twrp to get root access? Also, the most recent builds of CM11 have been running great for me with no issues and better performance than stock and CM10.2 for me. It's worth a try...

They do have use to you because you would find the info you're looking for, if you take the time to read them.
I tried out SlimKat and it seemed ok but i really don't like how little they made the fonts and the screens in it. Some of us older people need bigger. I also had to flash the SU binary update as its not added to it. I tried out the beta 2 edition. After my data resets I plan on trying the DST one that was also suggested. Sometimes not having home internet sucks.

Is someone using an Android N ROM with 2 sim-cards on the XT1562 (single-sim)?

The title is pretty much the question. Does it work for you? Because my sim-cards just doesn't get recognised, no matter what N-ROM I use...
Edit: I erased the modemst1 and modemst2 and now it recognised a SIM but there is no signal at all... and there is always an error while searching for a network.
Yes it's working fine for me. Never faced any problems I'm using aosp.

Hmm, I did excatly the same but it didn't work and I don't see the "SIM"-option in the settings.
Did you do anything else?
Btw: Did you flash the AOSP or the AOSP-extended?

Ah, I see you got the XT1562 DS and I got the XT1562 SS, maybe that's why it's not working for me...
i have the exact same problem. Is there any solution yet?
btw: i have XT1562 DS
You may have to flash single some baseband check the original thread and also install the latest version. And for DS are you installed latest version or the first release
