I have seen multiple threads on this subject for every other phone but none for the Nexus. Ever since i updated to CM 7.0.2 my gps hasnt worked properly. It locks in on my position and others in latitude very quickly, but if i try to use navigation it stays stuck on searching for gps. When i attempted to use the app gps status to check out the problem, it keeps loading and never finds any satellites. I posted in a g2 thread and the response i got back was this:
"You need to find out what partition on your phone the radio/gps cache is stored. Wipe it. That is the same type of idea of what we are doing here. Hopefully that helps get ya going in the right direction. I would also recommend trying to back it up first if you can. I'm also sure some dev with the know how could write a very easy script for you so that you can't mess it up. But it would obviously have to be someone familiar with the nexus setup. Good luck!"
can anybody help???
I wish I could ban people for this.
WARNING - DO *NOT* POST QUESTIONS IN THIS FORUM - only tips/info/etc.
dont kill me man my bad. really need the help tho. ill try this question in the correct forum as well.
Hoping someone can fix this hickup and help our community since Google wanted to turn off the servers.
If your q is not setup and you attempt to set it up you can no longer through the app the servers appear to have been shut down. Not good for some of us who have several of these balls around that use them.
Seems Google doesn't want the q casting anymore.
I will donate to someone that can solve this issue if the apk can be modified to use just for the settings
nevermind i got it and I am doing a write up for others.
If you really pulled it off, thank you big time! I need this!
Still need to figure this out. Please share the solution!

Thanks Joe! And a question.
First off, I want to thank Joe for all his hard work! Ever since I upgraded from the S3 to the S4 I have been missing CM for their lack of bloatware more than anything else. Found this just over a week ago, installed it and haven't looked back at TouchWiz ever since!!! Everything works great but I have a small issue I am hoping someone can help me with, I have tried using GravityBox and a separate Xposed module to have a different picture on the lock screen but all I ever get is a black background. If anyone has any ideas I would love to hear them. Thanks again Joe for all your hard work and I am sad to hear you will be moving on. Was hoping to see some of that Lollipop goodness but I understand that hobbies can only take so much of your time. Good luck with your S5 work!

Which rom are you using right now? I heard there's an issue with GB while on the gpe version. You might have to do a nandroid backup and try out pure nexus as others users reported GB working with no issue for them. And sometimes after applied a tweak, you must restart your phone to take affect.

How to Pure Nexus on SGH-1337M
Hello,
I have the SGH-I337M with bootloader I337MUMUAMDJ and with TWRP recovery, I'd like to install this Pure Nexus but I don't know what to chose when it comes to the modules.
Has anyone installed this or can anyone provide me some advice?
Thanks,
OMG I am LOVING the Pure Nexus rom on my S4!!!!! I just want to say that this was my first Android experience and was going to be my last until I stumbled upon xdadevelopers and this ROM a few days ago. I originally switched from an iPhone (which was hard enough) but when I got my brand new S4 I couldn't believe how slow and laggy it was, thanks to ATT apps and touchwiz, my phone with all these great specs could barely keep up with MMS messages and was lagging just scrolling thru my contact list!!??! :/
So anyways, I was ready to move back to the Apple side of the world before I decided to give this ROM a try and after installing the Pure Nexus rom all i can say is... WOW!!! I think i'm finally falling in love with this device 1.5 years later. This is exactly how the S4 should be stock from all carriers!! Pure, clean, fast and functional!! very impressed! Awesome work Joe!!

I believe I was in the wrong forums, I found GOOGLE EDITION 4.4.4 by Danvdh, Kryten2k35 & Ktoonsez and I believe it is meant for SGH-I337M so I'll give it a try.
Also, I did have one question, is there any work around yet for being able to connect this to a PC via USB and being able to transfer files? Again, I'm on ATT NC1 using the Pure Nexus Rom.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

No. Look into airdroid or the app in the OP. There will be no work around unless our bootloader gets unlocked, from what I understand it's a kernel problem and there's no real way to fix it without flashing a kernel

Airdroid is really good, thanks Rhymey!
I couldn't get Multi Mount SD-card lite to work though, even after checking off MTP fix... like it shows up in my file explorer as a drive but everytime I click it, it says "please insert disk"... not sure why?

Adding tiles to drop down menu?
Greetings all,
Is there a way to add more tiles to the menu? Where the Brightness, Settings, Wifi, Network, Battery Life, Airplane Mode, Bluetooth and Location settings are? I'd like to have to customize this a bit if possible.
Thanks!

You need to install Xposed Installer and GravityBox KK Modules.

Wifi difficulties on Google Play Edition ROMs for I337UCUFNI1
Hello, I followed the instructions for the SafeStrap installation of various Google Play Edition ROMs on my Samsung Galaxy S4, NI1 found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=53758259#post53758259
I successfully booted into working installations for all of them (Pure Nexus Edition, Google Edition for SafeStrap v1.1, & S4 Google Edition for SafeStrap. The phone could receive 4G LTE, but could not turn on Wifi. It became stuck on "Turning Wifi on..." & never progressed elsewhere. I performed all manner & combinations of hot reboots & full reboots, with no luck.
I also tried flashing different ATT modules.zip from NB1 & NC1, none of which changed anything.
In http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-att/development/rom-google-edition-s4-t2837239/post55466895#post55466895
I also saw that in addition to hot/soft reboots, trying go enter/exit airplane mode may also get wifi back up again. This too failed. I'm utterly confused how hot reboots & this airplane mode fix worked for so many others.
Anyone else had luck with fixing wifi?
Requesting advice/help. I just flashed this rom and have experienced two data drops already within 30 minutes of me using the rom. What should I do to fix this?
also...just tried to install chrome from the play store. When I open chrome my phone immediately vibrates 3 times very quickly, and says "unfortunately chrome has stopped". Ive tried clearing cache/data and uninstalling, neither worked. Did I forget to do something when I flashed this rom? other weird stuff has been happening like I rebooted my phone one time and the wifi wouldn't even turn on and I had to reboot again to get it working.
Every time you cold boot, you need to do a hot reboot to get wifi working.

Alright so recently out of the blues whenever I go on Google Maps or browse the internet on the S4. It turns off by itself, I try it again and it does it again. Not sure exactly why but I'm looking for an explanation of some sort, or if some one else is facing the same issue. It would be kindly appreciated if any one could enlighten me to as what I should do to solve such an issue.
Thanks for taking the time
does this only happen with certain apps or will it shut down by doing anything within the phone?

Try rooting, installing Xposed, installing Wanam, enabling it in Xposed, reboot, and look for the option about SystemServer Crash and try enabling it.

You should provide more details like firmware version, the physical state of your phone at least, before asking such questions. The issue can be of software or hardware nature but you didn't provided any useful information ...
Out of curiosity, just turn off GPS and try to reproduce the issue. If you don't want to root and use the tools to trace the logs, the process of elimination is the only way to narrow the issue down.
Fixed the issue.
Hey guys, thanks for taking the time to reply, it seems I have found what caused this issue. It was actually my battery, one of the gold plates within it needed to be properly cleaned, in which I did and everything went back to normal. I thought maybe perhaps it had something to do with the custom ROM itself.
Thanks for taking the time guys, really means a lot XDA community has always been amazing!

Great ROM!
Beautiful ROM man, I'll be following the development. I'll test out a couple of fixes I found from beta testing my ancient Optimus S.
I posted directly to the blog, but I like following on the forums better
Quickest install I've ever seen.
No problems on NOOP. No lag that I notice.
One question, for the masses or developer. Any thoughts on how to root this sucker? I did the "sustain root" on CWM, I switched the root access on the settings to ADB and app.
Can't figure out how to get root though. Thrown various APKs at it, everyone gets a blocked install (third party apps is enabled too).
Easy root? and minimal Gapps working
Greetings all,
I tested this app package, it's much smaller than the primary app package. Store is working, no errors thrown up. Yet, I've been running for about 30 minutes now, and installed root checker, again, no errors. 5.0 is tested.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/gapps-google-apps-minimal-edition-t2943330
Just don't like all the goole news, games, and music crap that comes with a full GAPPS package.
Comes from working on the LG Optimus project.
Also, am I going crazy, or did I just switch a toggle and get root access?
Seriously? No ADB, no chinese programming? Just handed me root access like it was nothing?
Friggin awesome.
Camera Fix
I got the camera to work better.
I had to use
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.sourceforge.opencamera&hl=en
In case this blog block the link, it’s Open Camera by Mark in the play store.
I have working video and pic on the rear camera, and the “selfie” front camera works for picture only. In video mode, It duplicates/tiles video. That’s the only thing.
Other than that, very few problems. Pretty zippy in terms of speed. Course I came from the LG Optimus S, so anything is zippy to me. Noop works good.
Annoying though that it seems to only save nandroid backups to some mysterious "secure" folder. I've looked for it, can't find it. Maybe it's just ROM Manager being a jerk though.
Why haven't you updated the ROM since April 24?
You are alive? Yay!
Very excited for the next build to go up, can't wait! Welcome back!

Me too. It's going up later this morning.
Sweet, looking forward to notifications on my lockscreen. Going to have to swap out the font for the clock though, Roboto looks weird when thin.
Thanks for taking the time to build this for us.
I didn't build this. But be warned, Telephony, bluetooth, camera, and flashlight doesn't work.
Mostly nitpicking, but after about an hour of testing, here's what I found, on 12-20150424:
Telephony requires a two+ rings prior to the other phone ringing at all. May be a carrier issue.
The Location quick setting tile for the notification drawer disappears when accessing the tiles from the lockscreen, at least with a pattern lock. Unaffected are WiFi, mobile data, Bluetooth, tethering/hotspot, airplane mode, rotation control, flashlight, AudioFX, ADB over network, Compass, battery mode, color inversion, LTE
, LiveDisplay, NFC, screen timeout and profiles. (logcat for disappearing tile: pastebin.com backslash 4Ny6rR58)
Compass in said notification drawer does not function correctly, tilting devices does not equal change in heading. i437 hardware issue?
SMS is vulnerable to Stagefright, as expected of pre-August 2015 builds.
Settings > Storage: Overflow menu option 'USB computer connection' activity never starts if phone is not plugged into computer. IMO, should offer options even if not connected.
Cannot remove guest user under Settings > User without first being ON guest account.
Camera findings:
Rear camera 4.9 mp pictures do not preview correctly in camera app, appear as pure gray. Opening files with third-party app resulted in expected photo.
720p rear camera never saves video; must lower resolution to function. In addition, appears R and B channels get swapped in preview.
Beyond those, no complaints so far, and been using this for about two months now. Any bootloops are the result of an improper Xposed installation
(please don't stop making this, it's much fun to poke and prod D:)
WiFi radio not working
Hey guys, so I have a Samsung Galaxy Alpha that I rooted and flashed CM12.1 along with Gapps on to it and it worked fine. Then I flashed my aunt's Samsung Galaxy Light SGH-T399 with CM12.0 too (with Gapps) and again everything worked fine including WiFi except that she had no service from her provider but still could receive calls but neither call nor Message. So I flashed a new radio (SGH-T399N) which I found somewhere in the discussion page and everything worked! She now got service, meaning she could make calls and message too.
Now I flashed my uncle's Samsung Galaxy AT&T SGH-i437 along with Gapps and again, everything worked including Camera (Google Camera not stock). Except the WiFi. When the CyanogenMod set up screen loaded and asked for my preferred language I chose English as always but when the WiFi screen popped up, it simply said "WiFi turning on" but it didn't! For 10 minutes I sat there waiting for it to enable but no such luck. So I skipped ahead to the home screen and I noticed that Mobile Service worked 100% for the phone. So basically, is there a WiFi radio I must flash for the WiFi to turn on? Right now I just downgraded him to CM11 KK 4.4.4 with Nova Launcher and the WiFi is enabled. Thanks in advance!
tl;dr WiFi doesn't turn on SGH-i437, mobile service does. Any radio or something I need to flash?
Hey silents090,
I have a sgh-t399, any chance you could forward me the link for cm12 you got working on your relatives? cuz I flashed cm12 and had issues with mobile carrier, and regular sms texts....
thanks in advance

Out of curiosity, which version of the rom did you use? I used vanilla.
Secondly, does the rom work when you do not flash the radio?
Thirdly and lastly, you clear the cache, data, dalvik etc before flashing, right?
