Hi,
I recently updated my rom to version Omega 23 (Android 4.4.2). My Knox is 0x1.
Since then all sensors (gyroscope, accelerometer etc.) do not work. I made the *#0*# test and it indicates that no sensor is working. Even thought it was a hardware problem, the motherboard for example.
I also tested with Echoe 16 and SlimKat. Its not the rom problem. Its an Android version problem.
However, as a last attempt I decided to install the WanamLite 1.5, last version with Android 4.2.2 and like magic all sensors came back, the screen automatically rotate again!
Does anyone know the reason why and how I correct in order to install Kitkat?
Thanks in advance.
Anyone?
HI guys ( devs, users surfers alike),
I have an S4 i337 AT&T, with locked MK2 bootloader, been on Android 4.3 since i bought this phone online, and everything was working perfectly.
I had it SIM unlocked, rooted, SafeStrap-ed, custom ROMs running perfect on t...NO ISSUES!
Ever since I upgraded to Android 4.4.2 with Deadly Venom's Magic KitKat Tool,(installed the 4.4.2 Cutsom ROM, flashed the mldmodules.zip, flashed the superuser 2.00 zip, ODIN'd the AP, BL, CP tar files right away ...everything on any 4.4.2 ROM works perfect, except 1 major THING: ==> NO GPS fix, ever! ON any of the 4.4.2 ROMs...and I tried like 8 so far....
ANybody knows how to fix this issue? I mean, I travel a lot, I need to be able to use Google Maps, Sygic, CoPilot, OSMand+, and none of them get a GPS fix!!!!
I will attach pics one is with HyperDrive RLS15 ROM (Android 4.3) showing full GPS signals, the other is with SHOstock -i v7.0 ROM, no GPS signals at all...
There will be a screenshot of the "About Device" as well ... notice I am on the MLD baseband, since I have the MK2 locked bootloader...
What should I do, folks? Flash a different modem, module? WHICH exactly, is there any fix for the GPS signal on the 4.4.2 ROMs, because without it, being on 4.4.2 is useless... rather go back to Android 4.3 ...
Im sure lots of you guys on the i337 AT&T, rooted, SS'd, with the locked MK2 bootloader have figured out a solution to get a good GPS fix (signal) on the 4.4.2 ROMs ... somebody please send me a flashable zip solution, for us who have this issue.
BTW, I live in the heart of Budapest, Hungary, and not on some remote island, so I MUST HAVE tons of GPS signals coming in and floating around me, that "Location" is NOT the issue here ...as you could very well see from the screenshot where I do get lots of GPS signals when I am on Android 4.3....
THX in advance for any of you folks out there, who can provide us with a viable solution for this tiny, but MAJOR GPS issue on the 4.4.2 ROMs.
I await your kind replies.
\\// Peace out

I've had the same problem since I first upgraded to KitKat a few months back. I've tried every solution known to no avail. It's frustrating since turn by turn nav has always been a feature I've used a lot.
If anyone has any new ideas please let us know..

So you have the same issue... Turn-by turn NAV is awesome...only if we would get a fix on GPS on our Galaxy S4 i337 ...
FOr how long did you have 4.4.2 on ur phone?
I upgraded to 4.4.2 about 6 months ago. First installed 4.4.3 about 2 months ago and have been running 4.4.4 for a week now. I've installed just about every ROM available for the S4 and did all those fixes and installed GPS apps

4.4.4 ROMs? Can you give me some examples, links to these? I would love to check them out. SO, do you have a working GPS fix in your phone, or no?
lemme know

There are a few ROMs that have been updated to 4.4.4
Up until today I was running which just released an update to that version: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2767026
Anyone else have any ideas for this GPS issue??
My GPS never locks on any Rom since 4.3 except for Hyperdrive 4.3/4.4.2.
What is so special in Hyperdrive? I copied Hyperdrive's GPS.conf and it didn't help.
Maybe Hyperdrives dev can tell us which GPS files he has in his ROM to put in our roms?

THX for the links, I will stay on the best ROM there is: SHOstock's SHOstock-i v7.0 i337 XXUGNF1 4.4.2 ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2468860)
It needed a couple reboots, and GPS works flawlesly ...so turn-by-turn navigation works, be that Google Maps, Sygic, OSMand, etc. ...
FOr those of you that it doesn't work, try flashing an earlier modem ( MK2, or MDL) from RockRatts forum (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2496517)
If this helped you, hit THANKS, folks...not a big deal, ya know? Much appreciated
I'll attach some pix as proof that there is a very good GPS fix/signal
For those having gps problems give this app a try

It's always worked to get my gps going again when broken from flashing roms
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
That's problem iv been having for a while to I flashed roms, kernels, module's, Odin back to stock and apps for gps nothing works. The only thing that's working for me is rls 18 rom.
Okay seriously why is there no GPS, I am not on a locked boot loader. And I have no GPS why is there no fix and nothing posted about this. If you ask me this phone is a piece of **** since 4.4
this worked for me thanks
Hi my S4 is unable to find fix I think it worked on all stock. I have that feeling that I have to change the modem but I am not sure to which one, I have knox 0x1, (void) android 4.4.4, baseband i9505xxuhoa7, bhp 3.0 rom, I tried many roms and aps like gps toolbox without solution, I dont think its a hw problem. any tips ?
thanks
