GPS Apps

Hi! Please correct if my understanding is not correct. Using default GPS apps in my phone, I know I can update my current location if I'm connected to a wireless network or using a data plan. I would just like to ask if our phone can update our current GPS location without a wireless network / data plan and just by activating the "My Location" option?
Thanks!

Umm.. I can't seem to get a lock on my gps. Can you help me troubleshoot to what seem to be the problem?

GPS works under certain circumstances

Hi guys. I'm sure this has been asked over and over, but I didn't find something that would be helpful in my case. The problem is simple. GPS won't fix on to my location without a data connection. I have saved a map offline (in Google Maps), and whenever I'm travelling and want to see my location, I turn the GPS on (mobile data and wi-fi is off) and press the location button in Google Maps. In a couple of seconds, I get the message "Your location could not be determined".
Turning on mobile data helps, it locks in about 15-20 seconds. But switching from Google Maps to some other app and back causes it to forget the lock and it has to search for my location again. Once again, it takes around 20 seconds.
On Wi-Fi (and no mobile data turned on), although it shows 'Searching for GPS' in the notification bar and the GPS icon shows that it isn't locked, it estimates my location correctly.
I've tried running GPS Status, downloaded AGPS data using the app, still no use (I expected this to work, since i guess the problem is about obtaining AGPS data, that is why it locks quickly when either mobile data or wifi is on). I don't get a lock while running GPS Status, nor do I see any satellites in the app, regardless of whether Wi-Fi or mobile data is on or off.
In short, I just want to be able to use GPS in Google Maps without anything else- without Mobile Data, without Wi-Fi
Hope that's clear. Thanks in advance

What baseband are you running? You might wanna try FH05.
I also have this problem,use u-center which will get a GPS lock then open maps,you should get a GPS lock within seconds,not sure if the baseband version will make a difference.

[Q] Location Settings from network

Hello, i am using the Sprint LG G3 and have an issue with my location services.
Setting are set to High Accuracy:Network,Wifi and gps.
However, in some areas my location is off by 10miles or more.
I used the Sprint Zone diagnostics tool and it shows my network location accurate to within 95000 ft and GPS accurate to within 65ft.
Changing network from LTE to CDMA did not help, but changing location settings to Device sensors only (GPS) fixes it (however i cannot use Google Now with only GPS enabled.)
It seems my phone is only using the network location even though GPS is more accurate, shouldnt the phone use the most accurate reading if it is set to use all 3 types of location settings?
This occurs in the stock weather app, Google+, Google Maps etc...
Any advice?
I can say I have similar issue instead of GPS not working the location service through 4G service seems not working since v10l firmware, for 3G seems working intermittently, even now I am using v20a it is still acting like on v10n

GPS signal lost when mobile data is enabled

HTC ONE M8
Custom ROM android 9 lineage OS
I have recently noticed problems with the GPS on my device. Google Maps and Waze many times the GPS signal drops and can not determine the location.
In my test I could find that the GPS problem happens when the Mobile Data are active. Just disabling mobile data and GPS back to work with good accuracy and even on rainy days.
I researched on the Internet and can not find a solution to the problem. Already restored the network connections and even restored the factory settings.
Please help me... What is the problem ?
