Hi! I just flashed the MIUI ROM on my Note 3 SM-N9005.
Everything was working well except the GPS. Any application that needed my location was not able to get it. Maps, foursquare and other apps did not work. It also was not able to get my location through wifi. Please help! Thanks!
Here are the orgininal ROM information for my Note 3 if it matters:
Product Code: SMA
PDA: N9005XXUEND6
CSC: N9005OLBEND1
MODEM: N9005XXUENC2
Also if it matters on the same day I flashed Cyanogenmod (didn't like it). Then X Note S5 Port (almost good, but didn't like it). Then flashed MIUI. Does that make a difference?
OK I found out the problem. It's the GAPPS I installed. Can anyone provide me the correct Google Apps (Recovery Flashable) so I can access the Play Store while not breaking my GPS? I've tried so many GAPPS... all broke my GPS. I found out because when I tried loacting with the weather app before GAPPS were installed, it worked. When the GAPPS came in, the GPS broke. Please help! Thanks!
I've also tried installing through the MIUI Market's Google Installer. When all the apps were done updating, GPS still broke. Please help! Thanks!
Gapps
You don't have to flash Google apps, you just need to install from their miui market. Just search Google. It's first result

A few weeks ago I ran a few ICS ROMS (Some were ports Paranoid, and others were not: Dark Unicorn)
I found that the ported ROMS had some issues with microphone volume, and that others did not.
I ended up downgrading to a more stable GB, but I was wondering if anyone could confirm an ICS Rom that has the microphone issue resolved on the myTouch 4g, Wifi calling.
I'm assuming that GAPPS must be installed on all ICS Roms as well in order to get Gmail, Google Maps, etc.
Do I have this right?
In your opinion which is best for the features I listed: no mic issue, Wifi Calling, and Google Apps support.
Thanks!
Some ROMs include gapps, so read the OP or let the ROM boot and check.
As far as the mic issue goes, there seem to be a small number of users who commonly run into this even when it's supposed to be fixed. You could try flashing the low mic fix. Find any of 0.0's numerous posts and click on the link to his dev-host in his signature (in browser). He has the flashable zip there.
Yes
Yes , you are correct , that you need Gapps to get Gmail , Play Store , Maps and Navigation , etc. Make sure that they are made for your Andriod Version.
Hi,
I'm still using CM 10.2, how can I update google play to 4.6.16? Do I have to reflash new gapps (coudnt find a new package)?. I saw some apks on androidpolice but is it safe to install it? I wouldn't bother the whole process but since yesterday I've been facing battery drain caused by google services. It happens every time google releases something new.

Had the same issue. Installed CM12.1 but went back to 5.0.1 GPE: No GPS anymore.
Fixed it by flashing Stock Firmware with Odin, installed TWRP again and flashed my GPE rom again.
I tryed stock with Odin already.
Not helped
Love this ROM. Always stable, NO WIPE
have a few questions, glad if someone can assist
- After installing V 3.0 for my note 4, 5.1.1 and flashing xposed framework, i cannot seem to get connected to GPS / navigation via google maps. always shows no connection?
- Any idea, how can we have the S6 / Note 5 apps (gallery / my files / calculator / internet explorer) after flashing Wanamlite 3.0? Really love the S6 apps
thanks
GPS is working for me on Wanam's 5.1.1
I installed the S6 calculator from this thread

HI everyone, I've note 3 N9005, I have tried many ROMs recently including RR rom and the teamesk CM12 ROM... I've 2 problems with both of them (on both of my Note 3 devices):
1. Unreliable internet access for apps: I don't know why this happens but I notice it especially with Facebook, I try to refresh and it takes forever without refreshing, or it gives back the cached feed, however, when I open facebook.com using chrome I can see everything, this is really annoying...
2. GPS doesn't fix, it knows where I'm, but it doesn't fix for navigation, even after using FasterGPS!
If there's another stable lightweight ROM that has none of these problems, just name it
Any help would be appreciated...
Try a rooted stock ROM with bloatware removed.

I use the stock ROM (Android v5.0) with TWRP recovery, SuperSU and the newest version of Arter97's kernel. Everything works.

Samsung based roms are less likely to have GPS/ Internet problems .
I Never ever had a GPS or Internet problem .
