Hi, Is there any settings, that tell me how old is AGPS satellite data?
Is there any program, that allow me to download AGPS satellite data? Or is this anywhere in settings ?
I have very slow GPS fix, so AGPS data might fix this.
Regards, Ales
Go into the market and search for GPS Status & Toolbox.
Good program.
Thanks, I will try. Regards, ALes
Does GPS Status actually download a file called xtra.bin?
I activated it, then searched on my phone and sd card for the file, but I can't find it ...

Hi
I have just received my orbit and have installed Copilot 6 from the memory card provided and have updated the gps data but when i start co pilot i can go into the menu but i am unable to select any of the options. If i do nothing happens. I have activate dthe software but nothing happens. I am presuming that i need to configure copilot to use the bulit in gps?? Some one please help. I have also tried hard reset on the device and then installing the software but still cant access any items on the menu. Any help will be appreciated.
Regards

I experienced every since I soft reset the phone, it will take very long time to catch the satellite signal for the first time. I am using Garmin mobile xt.
I come across this from some where and installed this on SD card.
It actually accelerate the signal detection for the first time, takes less than 2 minute.

Please delete thread this if you find the information I share is violated to the copy right issues, as I cannot see any software details in it, thus I don't know if this is a freeware.
I will try this, does it come up on startup everytime? how much memory does it consume?
BTW - I didn't try it, but there is AGPS functionality in device which speed it up as well

A very small software that u don't need to install, just run it from SD card.
I guess so the data will retain after every soft reset. Caused I experienced it get faster signal every first Garmin activation.
Maybe anyone had tried can give feedback.
Can someone put the file here for download? I can't download from that site...
when I try to use the Enhanced GPS prgram, I enable 'XTRA' but it always comes up with 'Unable to access network, please try again'. I have my data set up correctly and no other data issues. Anyone have any ideas?

Try to go to clear data for Google Services Framework, and then rebbot your phone.
i deleted the Data for Google Services Framework and reboot my phone -> still have the problem :crying:
Do you use some app for a-gps or you just have modded gps configuration file?
Here is the original gps.conf file, try to push it to system/etc folder using some root explorer.
i will try your file now.
i use only this apps which using gps (agps ?)
gmaps
navigon select
gpsstatus (http://www.androidpit.de/de/android/market/apps/app/com.eclipsim.gpstoolbox.pro/GPS-Status-key)
g+
htc weather widget
and a short test of smart navi (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ilm.sandwich&hl=de)
EDIT:
i have replace the gps.conf with yours and restart the phone -> problem is still their
i tried to clear the data from Google Services Framework too -> problem is still their
and i tried to delete all data/cache from weather (all weather apps/services i found) -> problem is still their
gpsstatus downloaded new agps data and wait for 7/7 satellites -> no location is set -> problem is still their
First check if the file I gave you have right permissions (have to be the same as all other files in folder). If that doesn't work my recommendatio is to make a backup of your data and do a fresh clean install of your rom.
Sent from my HTC Desire using Flashes and Thunders
I checked the rights/permissions all files have rw-r--r-- and so the gps.conf too.
ok reflash the rom is the last way (i think), when nobody else have an idea i will do that.
Thats a way to test an ics rom too before i reflash my actual rom
just an idea: could it help to reflash the radio rom?

That happends when you wanna try ICS roms... :banghead:

I dont have test an ics rom before, but when i need to flash this rom again, so i can just flash an other rom before because of full wipe
I have already this problem.
No App gets an Location-Information.
Which Service or File is needed by them?
I will replace them by myself (overwrite)
It looks ugly on lockscreen and homescreen (current location, instead of the weather information an location name)
Any Developer who knows an answer??
I push the issue again.
Can anyone list what is required for location via wireless?
It had in the meantime work times, because of problems I had to import a backup which of 22 Sept. 2012 was.
I would be glad to get an assistance
Hi guys, trying to retrace my steps after having one too many last night. I know there's wifi and cell location cache files on the phone but unfortunately i didn't have data enabled during all of the night but my GPS was. This means the cell location cache isnt complete and it didn't seem to log to google location history either. My question is if there is a GPS cache file saved somewhere that i can query like the cache.cell file? Thanks!
In last hour my phone has decided it doesn't know where it is.
Weather and maps don't find my current location. I didn't alter any settings and all are set up so my location can be found.
Other devices in the house detect location OK.
Any suggestions ?
Cheers
So this just happened suddenly; or is there anything that changed on the phone to possibly cause it?
You say "other devices in the house". Does this mean you are actually indoors when trying to get location? While the device can often get a GPS lock indoors (depending on the type of construction and other factors) its easiest outside, with a clear view of the sky.
Also, check what is selected in Location settings; or even try each of them to see if there is any change in the condition. "High accuracy" will (obviously) give you the fastest lock. On the other hand, "Battery saving" is WiFi only, and should give you a (rough) location even if a GPS lock is not possible, unless your WiFi network for some reason is not associated with a location. In contrast, if the mode is "Device only" (which is GPS only) and you can't get a GPS lock, its normal that the phone won't come up with a location.

Wipe all in TWRP including internal storage(backup your data/music/ etc first), flash rom via sideload or via usb otg or ext card. That's how i fixed my location not showing.

Did something similar. Used an ruu to go stock then back to custom, worked but don't know what problem was.
