My HTC Desire cannot detect any satellite for GPS, could this be a damage in the software or the hardware?...
I've change the rom version and radio but still doesn't make any difference. What are the chances that the hardware is dead?...
I've did Factory Reset for many times...
is it expensive the replace it?...roughly how much it cost?....
is there any GPS driver or some files that might be missing while I updated the rom myself??
I never tested the GPS function when it is newly bought. I tested it only after I updated the Android version from 2.1 to 2.2.
For your info, I've used Papago X5, GPS test, and many other apps to search for satellite but all fail, even after being outdoors for a long time....any help here?....HTC is gonna charge me a bomb for repairing it
Did u check ur gps outside in open sky??? bcos GPS doesnt work under roof!!
I've been outdoor with clear skys for a long time....still nothing... my fren's Galaxy S detects the satellite in just a few seconds....need help please..
Same problem here. Did you managed to solve the problem ?
same issue here, is it a hardware problem?
Try to turn on mobile data it's helped me find so much faster.
try a different ROM.. I remember google maps wasn't able to find me on MIUI, but when I switched to cyanogen it was fine.
Also you can download an app called Faster Fix from the market, it helps locate gps satellites
Sent from my CM7.1 Desire using XDA Premium App
I've tried different roms (Aurax, CM7, LeeDroid, ...), different Android version (2.2, 2.3) and different radios but it still doesn't work. I've also check "Faster fix", "GPS Status" applications, ... My first impression is a hardware issue but I'd like to be sure. Thanks to everyone for your answer.
Hello, I have a gps problem. I installed RunnyDroid 5. I have this radio:12.56.60.25U_26.10.04.03_M
can someone help me troubleshoot my gps problem. I can not get a gps fix at all...
Should I change the radio???
Try installing/configuring FasterFix first. My DHD took absolutely forever to lock on and some days not at all until I installed it.
If the problem persists then yeah I would suggest trying a newer radio.
My gps stops working every couple of weeks, I then use gps status & toolbox to clear and redownload A-GPS data. After that it works fine again.
GPS status & toolbox does help.
It can download latest almanac and ephemeris data to help fixing faster.
Or try using GPS in a good condition where there is no tall buildings or trees. Once you successfully locked GPS for one time, it would be MUCH FASTER to lock again even in worse condition.
Sometimes (when even gps-status isn't working) it helps to clear A-gps data, reboot, clear it again and then redownload A-gps data.
hi guys,
need your help on this before i get mad and throw my gnex out of the window.
im experiencing great problems with gps fix on any offline gps navigator like copilot or sygic. The gps fix is hard to get and even when it works its really wiggly m it goes on and off continuously and soetimes it puts me kms away from where i really am. Annoying.
Im on aokp build 36 / franco kernel and already tried the gps fix (i used faster gps) setting the server to europe/italy but no luck so far.
Does the agps activate automatically with gps? how do u turn on barometer?
is there anyone who can spare an advice on this? maybe updating radio?
thanks in advance!
Try using an app like gps status to download agps data before you go offline? I guessing you can't get a GPS fix because you have no data connection...
Help!!!

Others with the same problem and how to solve it?
