Hello people.
I have a problem on my GS4, everytime i want to use the GPS, it can't locate me at all, it says : "searching for GPS signal"
Everything is activated (GPS, Data, Wifi) as it should be.
When i boot my phone, it finds the signal, but it drops it like 5 minutes later and the only way to get it back is to reboot my phone.
Any idea how i can fix this ?
Thanks in advance :victory:

Well problem solved in two steps :
1st : i've tighten up all the screws as seen on this post (yes it was for the GS3 not the GS4 but it was worth a try)
2nd : i've used Faster Fix
And now it gets the signal stronger than ever :victory:
Thanks to both of you guys !

As i have been using only mobile data for days since my upgrade i find the message in the screenshot weird since i connected to WIFI. I tried searching to no avail.
What happens is when this message is displayed my WIFI disconnects.
Can anyone help me how to disable the message?
Btw, i'm using i9505 stock non-rooted 4.3
Cheers!

im sure its something to do with knox ask in that section
I have the exact same problem since upgrading to 4.3. Everytime it connects to wifi that silver shield icon with security information warning pops up, really annoying. I don't know how to fix this.

Same problem here.
I searched for this security warning and it seems to happen when toggling wifi on/off or the phone tries to connect to a open network when in standby.
Some reports say a factory reset can fix this issue, but I did that after I flashed 4.3 BTU and I still get the warning. Another possibility is to clear data and force close Knox notifications, but this won't last.
Maybe the only way to get rid of this for good is to root and remove all Knox crap.
Although, this leaves a question. Why is my phone trying to connect on itself to open networks ? I have turned off location service.
This is very shady business practice from both Samsung and Google. After all , I own this damn phone, I didn't payed 600 Euro for a spy tool on behalf of Google.
Guys, heard anything or any new update from Samsung about this issue? The warning message is really really annoying.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk
Wi-fi security error message
I am also getting the same security warning when toggling Wi-Fi on/off or when roaming. I am not using Knox, at least I haven't installed the main app as yet. Phone stock S4 gt-19505. I haven't done a factory reset since upgrading to 4.3 as some have reported that the problem still persisted.
Does anyone have a fix?

My problem is even worse. After receiving ths notifications, my wifi just died. It does not turn on anymore.
This is on behalf of a family member so I would really appreciate it guys if you could help.
Have a S4 snapdragon 600 variant and she bought it with everything working. I unlocked it for her using the region lock app and a bit of tweaking with which is best modem But after a few days (like 3 or 4 days after) on a custom ROM her signal started playing up, she only gets one bars or nothing at all wherever she goes. 2 bars on rare cases.
So I put her phone completely back to stock and still same problems. Tried a lot of modems too. Some make it worse some just the same.
Does anyone have a solution for this? Her warranty is voided due to Knox :/
Please help out guys!

You have the correct modem. The problem is that exactly. You flashed a lot of modems and maybe u ****ed ur phone forever. Try to:
1. Make a factory reset (Settings > Accounts > Back Up and Reset > Factory Data Reset > Reset Device > Delete All/Erase Everything)
2. Flash again same firmware BTU through ODIN (like in pic attached)

I was using Android L port. Everything was working fine. Yesterday I installed Panaroid 4.5. I was unable to sign in to my google account and error was Couldn't establish connection.
Then I opted for mobile data connection and sign in was successful.
Issue is Play Store is not working over WiFi. I have tried following things:
Reboot
Factory Reset
Editing Hosts
Deleting Hosts
Using hosts file from Android L Rom
What you guys suggest me? Need HELP!!
What device,i337 or i337m ate you on? And what firmware version are you on? L can cause issues where you might have to Odin the stock firmware and start over

Sorry, wrong forum. no Odin on n4. But there's no port of L on the n4, there's just the preview firmware and that's what threw me. You're probably going to have to flash 4.4.4 firmware in fastboot.

So you have connection issues with wifi? What about bluetooth? Does this work?
I either suggest to flash the latest radio or to reset your router. [emoji106] [emoji6]

It worked well for a while. But i am experiencing no neccention and a retry button in play store again..
Bluetooth works fine abd I also have reset my router.
What can be the issue?
Than I would suggest you to reset your router. Just power it off for some minutes and then power it on again

Sure! That would be great if you come up with some solution to this!
Here I am again and I am not sure if I brought the solution for your problem with me.
Truth be told the common solution for WiFi issues is either to flash the latest radio, do a factory reset or reset your router. In your case nothing of this works, so there arent many other options left. We must assume that there is something messed up with your WiFi module.
But try the following first:
- Check if your date and time is correct. Sometimes your device wont let access the internet, because the time/date isnt sync with the time/date on your router
- Did you do anything with your bandwith? There are 5 Ghz and 2.4 Ghz. You may change it to 'Auto' in your advanced WiFi settings.
- Also uncheck 'avoid poor connections' and turn off WiFi optimization
And to be sure: What exactly happens, when you try to connect to your WiFi? In the best case it says 'Connected', but there is also 'obtaining IP address'. Screenshots pls! And other devices can access internet through WiFi?
I hope something of this works and now I am really bumped. May someone else could help?
Hello everyone,
I was using my moto x play normally and I was surfing on the internet. Suddenly the device disconnected, I pick up my phone, disabled wifi, and re enable it, since that the device freezes and suddenly rebooted. Showed me a quick animation of moto bootanim and restarted.
When the phone booted up again, the moto shows me ''optimizing apps''. I have no idea what the problem is but it is no the fifth time that the moto did this problem. I have try everything like a hard reset and the provider had replace my battery, but with no results.
I have also filmed my problem if you want to see the video I can send you a link with the URL.
Please is there anyone who can help me.

Is your phone rooted or has unlocked bootloader?
Sent from my XT1562 using Tapatalk
What does rooted and bootloader mean? I have never download some illegal software on my phone.
They're asking if you've unlocked the bootloader by getting the unlock code from Motorola, and then enabling root access.
Have you done a full factory reset or reflashed the firmware using your computer? The former is in the Settings -> Backup and Restore menu. You'll be wiping the phone and resetting all the settings to their defaults, to see if there's an application is crashing your phone.

Take your device to warranty service. It's the best thing to do if your device is unlocked and running stock firmware.
