Hi good people of xda.
I'm hoping someone out there can help me as I'm at the end of my tether.
I recently noticed that my GPS wasn't working whilst running Goldfinger v8.
So I tried all the usual fixes (tightening screws, faster fix, topNTP, changing csc) and nothing works. I flashed back to a stock unrooted 4.4.2 firmware for my location UK (BTU) via odin and that didn't work. I am currently running Goldeneye v49.2 as the last time i remember my gps working was on a much earlier version of that rom (v20 something) but it isn't available to download anymore so i thought i'd try the latest but to no avail.
Unlike others that seemed to report no satellites in view, my phone sees them but will not get a fix .
I have also never used a 4.4.4 rom as I know that can cause gps problems when reverting back to 4.4.2.

Here is my current setup from phone info
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Same problem here..help
I'm starting to think my gps is broken. If I put my phone in flight mode and open gps test it sees satellites but they are clustered in one direction
If I disable flight mode as soon as my phone connects to wifi I get a normal looking image.
I have tried so many stock firmwares, modems and cscs I've lost count. I've tried 4.4.2, 4.4.4 tw roms & 5.0.1 aosp and nothing is allowing me to get a gps lock. I haven't dropped my phone (much) and had what I'd call a heavy impact to have damaged the internal gps receiver/aerial so I'm really at a loss now. Looks like I'll be buying a new phone sooner than I thought

I have the same issue... Maybe it's just a false report, like with Bluetooth before ( it was saying that bluetooth take like 7% of battery and was keeping the device awake while in fact it was not)
I'm on stock kitkat 4.4.2 20D EUR open with cloudyfa kernel (I have a custom recovery and KnockCode doesn't work with KK stock kernel)

You turned off locations, but what about Google Now?

Download wakelock detector from the play store. You will have to root your phone for the app to work properly.
Let it run for a day then post the results of the app on here and I can tell you what's causing this issue.
Hello, since a week my connection is very bad.
I think it's after formatting to f2fs.
Now I'm using ext4 and a TouchWiz Rom but the connection is still bad. I think after changing to TouchWiz it was good for one day.
I'm Facebook and instagram the pictures loading after an hour and it takes very long to download an app from playstore.
It does take very long to show the pictures in play store. But after wating till the download starts, it downloads at normal speed. Don't know why [emoji15]
Wrong section. Post in QnA please. Btw you seriously waited an hour for FB picture to show?!?
Didn't know that I was in the wrong section. I want sure that my phone started the thread because of the internet problems.
I didint wait so long but it feels like that.
Here an example

It does take very long. Before it was not so slow. Only my device is so slow.
My tablet get an good connection.
Any solution ?
I flashed TouchWiz because I thought its an problem with aosp
Sorry i forgot a few information.
Note 3 9005 LTE
Android 5.0
Newest Bootloader
Router settings ok
Only with my note 3
Maybe since I formatted to f2fs
Now i got ext4 but its still the same
Try FXR wifi fix and rescue from playstore. See if it works.

use *#0011# and wifi closed - open.
Tried both but the issue still exist
So the bootloader is from lollipop?

I think so.
After lollipop touchwiz released I flashed bootloader and the rest.
But the issue is since a week.
I got flashed lollipop touchwiz since its released
Edit:
I think it´s fixed now
I think it was my router ..........
Happy for you anyway

I had purchased an I9502 through olx.in, last week.
Second hand.
Due to rare users, there is no dedicated thread on XDA for my device
Now, many questions arises.
I had updated to official lollipop (5.0.1), by SAMMOBILE's official ROM. After upgrading, my second SIM cant connect to network. So I revert back it to KK (4.4.2). Still the problem persists !!!!! . I couldn't use it as a dual sim phone Is PDA and CSC version is important while flashing? or we could install any PDA/CSC rom version on samsung phones? I don't know the original ROM so, I had downloaded all firmwares available at sammobile and tested. only 2 of them managed to register my SIM(first) on network. Is it a hardware issue? or by a wrong ROM ? anyway now my mobile admitted at hospital and specialized doctors have been studying his disease
Is there anyone using dual SIM without any errors?
The PDA and CSC are vital to ensure you get the right regional variant for your device. The only exception is if the phone is unlocked for use on another carrier, in which case you can use a ROM from any region. Where you have the dual SIM version however, you only have one region available to you, but with multiple Android versions. The firmware here is the latest for your device. Do a factory reset before flashing through Odin.
I am totally disappointed.
My technician said that it had lost IMEI !

What will I do?
Is there anyway to recover its IMEI?
I had followed all guidelines available through search.
But, I couldn't...
Please help me on this....
Flash just the modem through Odin. You can extract it from the firmware download. Sometimes the modem needs to be flashed twice before everything functions correctly.
Other than that, I'm not aware of anything else software-wise that can be done. You'll need to take the phone to Samsung themselves and have them look at it.

Hi,
A little history, my wife phone screen broke and got replaced by a (Class A) 3rd party screen in a cellphone repair shop.
A couple of days after the fix, she got a notification on the J7 system upgrade, I did advice her to wait a couple weeks before applying the upgrade since there might some problem that might come up (aside from firt time seeing a system upgrade from Samsung phone).
She got impatient (more likely annoyed to the constant system notification) and applied the upgrade resulting to the screen being unresponsive to touches(no touch syndrome).
She went back to the shop that replace the broken screen and they say that they could fix it. (which the did)
Now as it stands her phone already has a custom rom, attached the system info. Not sure if what the shop claims about the real reason behind the no touch issue is the 3rd party screen, that an original screen is needed in order to have it (j7 pro) working on oreo.
Though the did fix the no touch issue, but the overall user experience has been not ideal. Noticeable problem are random restart, cant't remember wifi passwrd after restart and non working Bluetooth. (there might be more).
I have some experience in rooting and installing custom rom on my phones before (Nexus 5X, Xiaomi Redmi Not4x and Nextbit Robin), but somehow I am putoff rooting Samsung phone because of ODIN. But since her phone has already TWRP installed, I think I can manage here (already install Magisk on her phone).
Can anyone here recommend a nougat based custom rom which is stable and have little to no issue (like the ones mentioned above).
thanks in advance.
