GPS Aids - Need feedbacks

Hello there!
I'm getting reports about "GPS Aids" not working with Vibrants. Some users with Galaxy S phones and GPS drivers from Vibrant got the same problem.
The app it's on the market. So the first test will be install it and tell me if it is working or not.
Regards...
Original post at > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=955395

Went onto market, searched for and downloaded the app.
It wouldn't download the GPS aids... it kept saying "connection detected" then it was unable to downlaod the data.
When I enabled the root option (brute force) it finally worked.
Testing GPS now, will update/edit with results.
Maybe you should try the Themes and apps section, not trying to be a mod Just saying it might help get you more testers.

Okey.. I have a user in the spanish forum with a Vibrant. And the native mode it's working fine for him. Will ask for ROM version. Thankyou Bignjuicyjc
@Bignjuicyjc are you using a different GPS driver from stock? Like the captivate driver?

Hello I tested it out the other day. currently am on trigger v2.1 (froyo). Installed it, popped it on with default settings and tried out gps test app. Normally I eventually see 11 sats in my area Minneapolis,MN USA. With aids I saw 3 and never locked on.
So went into the setting of gps aids and deleted gps data and forced it this time around. Same deal: takes 3x as long to find any satalites, finds 1/4 the amount of sats and never locks on. In google maps/navigation my locations was off by almost 2 miles. Rebooted and deleted gps data and tried gps test again. Same results.
Had to delete data, uninstall the app and restart my phone before I could lock onto anything again. Some people in the vibrant community say this has helped them alot. And then theres people like me where it made it worse. Hope that helps.

Install/Uninstall don't change nothing. I think that it is something related to the GPS driver using in ROM. Do you know if your ROM is using a captivate driver? Or other different from stock?

I too am using Trigger... but V2.5 which if I'm not mistaken uses Masters GPS fix.
But then again, I also used Samsung GPS restore app from the market AFTER i had flashed Trigger.
It seems since using Gps Aids the GPS is "seeing" more birds but not locking on to any.
Will continue to test.

does this work on Samsung Galaxy 3 GT-I5800?
Does this GPS Aids works for my Samsung Galaxy 3 GT-I5800 mobile phone?
This phone is Android 2.1.
This phone's GPS currently does not function well. It is very slow and take forever to get any GPS reading, is any.
If I to apply your GPS Aids to my phone and it is not the correct patch for this phone, is there anyway I can go back to the original firmware?
Thank you.

I loaded it last week on my Vibrant, it works.......... No Big Great difference since I have Masters GPS fix previously installed, but it does work and the locks are about 10 sec faster

Tried it and installed and downloaded properly on first try. Didn't see much difference at first, but when I went to visit friends in the middle of nowhere, I got locks when my gf's captivate couldn't. It didn't show up in the market for her captivate, but I sent the apk by email, installed it and it also got the gps to lock in. So here's two votes for it working.

Flash it thru Clockwork Recovery

I've had mixed results. It works for some customer roms and not others. It is confirmed working on Bionix and Auxura, but I didn't have good results with Trigger for some reason. Thanks for the app. I'm locking on 6/13 satellites indoors and 11/13 outdoors.

Feedback: Last week. I installed GPS Aids on my Vibrant and it downloaded the file and appeared to work quite well. But, 2 days ago, I developed a problem with something not related, and had to do a factory reset. Since the reset, I can not download the file. I keep getting a messaging saying it can't download Xtra and to try again later.

What do you mean?

After Flashing to Overcome 1.2.1....GPS is not working correctly.

Ever since I flashed to Overcome 1.2.1 the GPS has been VERY wonky and just plain WRONG. Maps says that I am in the next TOWN which is a good ways away.
GPS Locks are extremely few as well and takes forever to lock on to.
Can anyone else confirm this and or help?

Bumping this up.

When you flashed, did you wipe your cache? With a new rom it always takes a while to reaquire your location. I use the app HereIAm2 from the market to get that first position lock after a rom flash.

Yes I did wipe the caches. Will try that app out if it is free.
Thanks.
EDIT: Noticed that the compass seems to be very inaccurate as well. Weird.

Oh well, that's the least of my probs;-/
i have installed OC 1.2.1 and at one point the whole tab became very sluggish....and all sort of issues appeared such as slow browsing.......then the tab would simply freeze! Reboot did not help at all....
I have since installed OC 1.2.3 with the new kernel and it went ok-ish. But today after rebooting i have all sort of errors (broken messaging service, when i click on the wifi tab to switch on, it says 'error'.etc).
I wonder if others have this sort of probs. I cannot understand how it can work fine for a few hours and then.....kkkkkkkk.
I have the UK tab version with firmware JK5; Also cannot figure it out why it does not show 'overcome v1.2.3 on the build number...it still shows v1.2.1, kernel overcome 97.
I'll have to reflash the lot now.......how annoying.

I am sorry that you are having problems. However hijacking threads is frowned upon here.....
Welcome to the XDA Forums otherwise.

The app is free.
How many roms have you flashed? Maybe it's time to do a factory reset, then flash the full version of the rom/kernal.

Well it did the trick and put me in the correct spot but the compass is still completely wonky.
Oh and this is the first ROM I have flashed. Overcome 1.2.1.

There are apps in the market for that. You want to calibrate the compass, so look for a gps utility. Sorry I don't have one to recommend to you.

Not a problem. I appreciate your advice and welcome any others as well.

One thought about the compass - do you have your tab in a case with a magnetic clip?
Mine works fine out of the leather case, but not when it is in the case.
Just a thought.

No I don't.
To test the GPS to see if there was any interference I put my iPhone 4 into compass mode in maps and did the same with the Tab using the Maps program.
The iPhone 4 was spot on....however the Tab was wrong yet again.
So that means there is no interference.
I am stumped here....and the recalibrate apps did not work either.

Just thought I would try a catch-up.
Since my last comment I moved from Rotos JMIv2 to Overcome 1.2.3 and my GPS also stopped. After 24 hours however, I have got it going through a the use of GPS Status (free from the market) and the LbsTestMode which you can access either through a dialler code or through SGS Toolbox, also free from the market.
To cut the story short, I went from just finding about 3 satelites (with no connectoins), to finding and connecting 10 satelites.
I must say that I am very happy with the current ROM and with the GPS Status program.
Hope this helps if you are still having problems.

I believe that if you dont have wifi or 3g on the tab GPS will not work..

Yes - I've always had the wifi going, but found that unless I had a phone (modem flash) and inserted a sim card, I could never get GPS to do anything.

GPS is not even locked while iphone did that within 3 sec

Dear users ,
as i told , i have a big problem with the GPS it take LOOOOOONG time to fix
i did google the problem thy advice to tried *#*#1472365#*#* and *#*#3214789650#*#* but nothing happens when i type the numbers
is it software or hardware ! and what is the fix

The answer is all over the forums. But some more information about your device would be helpfull. Ill assume that you are running a stock ROM. Many people have had great success fixing the GPS by flashing to XXKG6 firmware. That worked for me. Give it a go.

sometimes i can get a lock in 30 seconds and sometimes it take 5 mins and that`s with a clear sky, and i have tried must of the gps test apps with downloaded assistance data.

What version firmware version are you running? Do you have a custom ROM installed? Rooted? I to had the exact same issue with my phone. I was running the stock Bell ROM from Canada. Firmware was MUGKG2 standard on Bell/Virgin Phone. I rooted my phone with CF roots available for KG2 and had used all the GPS data tools that I could find. Then I flashed my phone with Cognition ROM which is using XXKG6 and BOOM GPS working. I found all this on this very forum. I will search and and post it for those who cant find it.
Eahaih

1- Rooted.

In order to get the most help possible instead of saying not work, why don't you say what you tried to do, what happened when you tried, and then say it didn't work. That way you can get the most help as possible.

Update your firmware to a newer version.

I did install :
GPS Status app and the Faster Fix app.
point Faster Fix app to Asia.
restart the phone
open the "GPS Status" and open google maps !
still the locator blinking for more than 30 min !
Thank you

Try updating your firmware. As i stated I tried everything as well. It wasnt until I updated the firmware did I get consistant GPS connections.

Mine locks within 5 secs without any firmware change, a Galaxy S II right out of the box. Maybe you're in a place without much satellites or you're indoors? Or maybe there's a malfunction with your network an A-GPS.

Hi I had the same problem - GPS could see plenty of satellites but would not get a "fix".
I then rebooted the phone and then within a few sec it could get a fix even indoor.
So try to reboot.

Use faster fix to set your pool server, then use gps aids, clear agps in settings, then go outside with good signal, request update agps in settings, go back to main screen and wait for good fix, may take a minute or 2, after that you should subsequently get a fix in about 15 seconds

i'm trying to use GPS Aids but it said "The GPS Data Folder is not visible to "GPS Aids"
what should i do ?

What firmware are you using?
Your phone must be properly rooted (ie. having Superuser and Busybox installed). Any rooted kernel will do the trick.
Then, being on GPS AIDS main screen, press the menu button on your SGS and select "Setup".
Thanks Slap, this is very helpful especially for JWx firmwares that do not include angryGPS anymore.

Try the fix for GB: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1750226

Hi,
My GPS is also not working. I did a very wide search about that isse and tried most of the things. But no luck. In previous stock roms, my GPS was working fine. But after switching to ICS, I couldn't get a fix. The interesting thing is when I tried to downgrade to GB, I still couldn't get a GPS fix. I'm totally confused about the problem.
Does anyone have any solution or idea?

Hi Guys, try to flash with different ROMs and see if the GPS works on other ROMs or not. Make sure the NTP server is having correct URL for your region. It is required for your phone to download LTO file, the same to XTRA server url.
For my case last time, it wont works on any ROMs I tried at all. And then I found out it is the GPS Antenna contact problem. I have fixed it by soldering trick (which voided my warranty that I am not really care after about 2 years of usage).
You can try to verify it by taking off the back cover, then use your finger to press on the upper part of the GPS antenna at the back of the phone. (the location is next to your speaker for I9000). IF it detects satellite when you pressing it, probably it is the hardware contact issue. Some of the owners fix that by putting a thick tape at the pressure point so that when they put back the back cover, it will give a pressure to make sure the antenna contact properly to the board pin.
Try search in xda regarding about the GPS hardware fix.
WARNING : Try it on your own risk. It is just my suggestion and you have rights not to try it. Good luck. :good:

First of all, thanks for your reply. I tried varios ROMs, none of them solved my GPS issue. But I'm pretty sure that I used GPS previously. There were no problems at the beginning. So I don't think that there is a hardware related problem. I noticed that problem after installing ICS (maybe it was before ICS, but I didn't notice it before).
Just to be sure, I also chekeched the GPS antenna (I found a guide about that). And it seems OK.
So I'm back to square one...
Note: It detects GPS satellites, but says that none of these satellites are in use. I also posted a screenshot in my previous reply.

GPS doesn't work on Kitkat

So I installed a few different stock Kitkat roms on my note 3 (Australian version). At some stage I realised that the gps wasnt working by not getting a singal. I've gone and done many fresh installs with odin of different stock roms and still can't get it to work.
I've used gps status and after fixing a-gps data it will sometimes show many satellites on the horizon but with a very weak signals. If it does finally get a signal after a reboot it won't work again.
I've manually replaced the gps config file and it doesn't help. Also when I use an AOSP rom the gps works perfectly, locks fast and accuracy good.
Any ideas/suggestions on how to get the gps working again will be appreciated!

Not sure to be honest but I have two Notes here with different antennas (our whatever it is that sits on top of the GPS chip), running different Roms but they both seem to get into a state where they suddenly lose the signal, from 10 Satellites or so down to none, then reset GPS and eventually get it going again......could take quite some time or require reboots.
I find that X-Note (non stock kernel!) is much better but did not completely eliminate the issue.
I've rooted one of the phones so I can't return that for warranty and knowing Samsung Australia they would do nothing to help me anyway.
I'm pretty sure that ALL Notes have the issue but it seems to be random and only triggered after some time off operation.....so if you're not running GPS all the time you may not notice.

Someone has posted a gps fix zip. Which is supposed to work. I was afraid I might break something so didn't try it. I installed bob cat rom hoping that would fix it. but it didn't. Mine is international lte. So it isn't supposed to have the gps problem. Knox has tripped over so I am out of warranty. As the aosp rom works go back to that. Or just go from rom to rom till you have what you want which has gps working. I think x rom has working gps but not sure yet. Will know once installed. And i will find that gpsfix zip and install that.

Thanks, wouldn't happen to have a list of n9005 4.4.2 roms with gps fix installed would you? I think thousands of people would happily void their warranty to get it. That is the only reason I installed another rom and voided mine.
But it didn't fix the gps neither do the gps status etcetera.

Sorry but I don't. I think ALL 4.4.2 have that bug, at least all the ones I looked at. I don't know whether this is an Australian thing but it's very strange.
When it gets 'confused' the map that usually shows the satellites in view (or that should be in view) has ALL of them in one spot at the top end of the circle. A clear AGPS data usually fixes this but it sure looks like a software bug. I assume Samsung will eventually fix this. It ONLY happens certain times of the day. yesterday it did not happen before 14:30 but when it did, it did so on both Note 3 I have access to.

For me in australia with lte version it is a case of never getting enough satelites to get a fix and losing soon after. While my i9305 and my wife's n7100 both work fine all the time. So I cannot see it as just an at and t or verizon usa problem. My phone is with optus who updated the firmware as soon as I turned it on. But as I wrote no go so tried sweet, x, omega, bobcat stuck with bobcat 8 more success with gps on 8 than 9. Hopefully 10 will be more like 8. Perhaps 4.4.3 has a fix..
cheers

Curious, there seems to be a multitude of Australians with this issue..
You're going to have trouble aquiring a GPS lock these few days everywhere though. There has been a CME on 04/06/2014 (international dating) that hit Earth at 07/06/2014 and sparked a G2 geomagnetic storm. It plays havoc on all radiosignals, including GPS. It'll be bothersome for another week or two, most likely.

April Flashed UK (BTU) GPS Lock timing same as Poland.:crying:
May Flashed U.A.E version again GPS LOCK WITHIN 4 to 5 Seconds without any Help of Internet.:good:
I am from U.A.E my question is GPS has anything to do with region? I mean GPS software is inside CSC or ROM or Kernel????

Try entering root folder and open up etc>gps.conf using text editor and change LPP_PROFILE to 3 instead of 0.

sama with me. i alteady try many rom include stock ne4 firmware. cannot lock the gps signal. felling sad.
