In my experience, it may take 3-10 minutes before the GPS acquires the first satelite, after having flashed to a new ROM.
Cheers!

Use visual GPS software
Hi dude,
Take a look here,
www.visualgps.net/VisualGPS
download the soft and test your GPS on your mobile, let it configure automatically.
Then lunch your GPS software, like tomtom or else, if needed, try to downgrade your radio to 1.46.30.11.
If needed try all radio till u get the gps fix with visualGps.
Make me know if works dude.
thanks i will try it and give some result tommorow
I think you just need to try it at a different location. Sometimes the response of the phone is dependent on the location.
For example, I work on one of the top floors of one of the tallest buildings in the part of town where I work, and have a clear view to the sky in all directions (absolutely no obstructions). Yet, I can leave my phone in the window for over an hour and never get a satellite fix. I can even open the window and stick the phone out the window and still get no fix. However, as soon as I leave work, and get to a different location (even with buildings towering over me) I get a fix. On the flip side, at home, I sit down away from the window, the window has thick curtains, and there is another house right outside my window creating an obstruction and yet I have no problem getting a fix.
My suggestion...go to another location when possible, soft reset the phone, and restart the application that uses gps. If you are driving, even better (it's more likely that you will reach an area where the position of your phone with regard to the satellite is good and you will get a fix).
This has worked for me irrespective of the radio rom (and I have flashed 1.38, 1.41, 1.46, and 1.50 radio versions to my phone and have always gotten a satellite fix).
Thanks for your help guys...
but still no luck...i'd tried all day long but still no satelite seeing on my trinity.
so anyone can give me link for radio??i only have 1.41...,146....and 1.50....
try install GPs test cab

i think your problem is your radio version try the radio version that i mention yesterday
yeah, it should be radio related, or your GPS chip is having a random hardware error unrelated to your ROM flashing. its pretty unlikely that the problem was the ROM (although i guess anything is possible..)
Recently, my GPS will work, and then i'll turn it off.. when i want to turn it back on it sometimes can't locate the GPS on any com port... most times i need to soft reset to get it working again.. not sure what that's about.
if you saw one satellite for 30 seconds, then there's hope for you make sure you're outside with clear view of the sky.. and definitely try a different radio ROM.. beyond that, i'm not sure if there's anything you can do

update radio to 1.50 (http://trinityguides.info/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=38&Itemid=66) over sspl (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1132634&postcount=1)

Updated RIL (06.08.11)

I have made some updates to the RIL which is the driver for the radio in the phone and would like some people to test it and let me know if they have any issues with signal (as in no service at all from their provider when they did before the update) and also data problems. Apply the update like any other update, from the android installer menu.
EDIT 6.8.11::
Hello again, done some more updates on the RIL for you all. Seems to sync with the modem app a little better for those that just can't let go. Still don't think it's necessary though. Anyway, a few more minor improvements I believe, give it a go.
Hi Scoot thanks for sharing new kernel and updates for us..
I didn't check ext4 or ext2 compatibility because I always do nand installation, but about RIL update I do have signal issue.
After fresh install, my device gets no services at all but after turn on and of ariplane mode and a very long wait, finally the signal reception is fine. Oh, I guess there is also a problem with data connection because sometimes even with 3G or gprs icon appears in status bar, I get no data traffic in or out when I tried to open market or browser. But when it happened, I do airplane mode again and sometimes it fix the problem
I've tried in both your CM 7 and 6.1.2 with Radio1.65.21.18
Hi Scoot, is a HaRET bootable version possible?

Hello Leona, i appreciate the donation i received a while ago, little things like that make working on this even more rewarding and worth the challenge You can obviously test the RIL with haret and I have attached a zImage to the first post which you can put in your haret folder
The zImage is untested because i don't use haret so let me know if there are any problems.
Thanks Scoot and no problem.
The Kernal seems to boot fine.
I'm having the usual fun of trying to get into the install menu, so have not been able to apply the update yet, will let you know.
Thanks Scoot, seems to work fine - I don't get any signal problems with the your new kernel and RIL. Data is working correctly too. (using your CM6.1.2 build with radio 1.65.21.18)
What kind of changes have you made to the RIL?

There are a couple of snags with the RIL, in terms of call performance it is much better, but with data after turning it off and turning on again it fails to get a correct IP, but going into the modem app and turning off then waiting for it to turn on and reassign an IP works so I need to look into that. THe RIL has changed massively, lots of bug fixes and extra stuff added in. Signal strength is now reporting correctly rather then just having either no bars, 2 or 4. In theory calls should come in a little faster too but we'll see. There is still work to be done, mainly to data though, i'd like to get it working like a native android phone being run from the ppp service rather then a script which deals with it all at the minute. This should then do away with the modem app so it can be fully controlled by the OS.
Hi have managed to apply the update now, and can confirm that all works well, yes I noticed that the data connection failed at first, but switching between the two o2 options seemed to fix it.

Thanks for the feedback Leona
Scoot are the changes made to Ril kernel specific?
I have a '25 branch kernel can I update my system with your patch?

The RIL isn't kernel specific, the kernel was just something else I had been working on so you can apply the RIL update regardless of kernel
Excellent,thanks Scoot.
It seems to be working fine except for data issues that you have mentioned before. Now it really shows the correct signal strenght, where I had zero bars before (which was kind of odd) now it shows one bar. Great update.
I update my RIL before 20 min and for now everything look fine.
I haven't tried the RIL yet, but the kernel works well. I had an issue where ramzswap was crashing the kernel whenever compcache did the insmod, but then realized that it was an old module, and that you provided zram.ko instead.
So, the question: does somebody have a compcache.sh that works with zram? Or, a zramconfig utility compiled for our target? I miss my compcache!
I'll try RIL soon.

To answer my own question, this edit of compcache.sh seems to work for me.
Also, I have your new RIL installed now, and it seems good. Cell-tower location seems to work, although I'm not sure because I haven't moved to a different tower yet. HSDPA data works, and I have one bar right now.
Kernel works fine except standard crash during sleep (can't wake up, qwerty backlight on) once a day. Boots normallly from Haret, no waiting.
RIL kills my data connection, works after turning airplane mode on/off.
Sent from my Not So Super Froyo using XDA App
Is the connection issue strictly for Haret users, or is NAND affected as well?
I've been running 2 phones, one with .25, the other with .32.9, both Liqid's and 1.70.19.9 radio.
Also, AT&T is doing upgrades to our area right now so I might not be a good candidate for testing, but I can give feedback as soon as I get it installed.

It is an issue for all users, the problem is in the 'kill connection' code in the ril. I'll be trying to fix it when i get a chance but for now it doesn't stop data from working, it just means that the radio or modem needs to be turned off and on either by toggling airplane mode or using the modem app included in most builds
Tried it with 7.0.2 RLS2 /system on nand /data on ext4. Took a long time to acquire t-mobile and even longer after in/out of airplane mode. Did get a data connection but had to go back to airplane mode after using wifi (wifi worked great). Had it on about 7 hours and received a couple of calls. It woke up for me to answer after 4 rings on the caller end. Then I had to make a call and it hung up immediately after dialing the number(tried several times and numbers). Other than no out calling it settled down and was very usable. May try 6.1.2 (RLS6) tomorrow pm. Thanks for the hard work
Hey does this kernel contains the optimizations for battery use done by Krazy? Cause with his kernel i get a lot of lag after a long sleep period!

[Q] GPS

Hi boys, i'm in problems again... i think u can help, or maybe try, if u want, u know.
Well, i don't remeber when, but suddenly gps stop works for me, or if it works, very very very inexact, for example, precision about 1000m... or maps says "ur location is unaivable", i'd try sense 3.5 roms, sense 3.0 roms, cm7 roms, o2 roms, now i'm with miui and still have the problem.
My phone drops accidentaly a few times, and before that, i'd try aGPS fix... but i don't know what's the problem... well, anyone have idea?
thanks!!!
PS: now with MIUI, maps says "ur loc is unaivable" and every app that uses location loop at "getting loc"... doesn't work.

i think i'm gonna explode my phone and take new one from my comp, stock the phone again seems really really heavy
I just flashed the alpharev hboot downgrader, and then the stock 2.2 PB99IMG.zip found here from some sticky. All from recovery and that's it. I read that you should use the stock 2.3 image, so that you wouldn't lose your warranty, but my phone was unbranded, so I guess it didn't matter.
So I opened the phone today and dis- and reconnected the GPS antenna cable (the cable on the left). Didn't do anything though.

GPS PROBLEM NO SATELLITE what so ever

hey guys
I recently purchased a used galaxy nexus and as soon as i got it i rooted it and headed to xda to see whats fresh.
After flashing and all that i tried to use GPS but sadly there was no satellite present so there could be no lock or anything
So I flashed another rom and still the same
So I went to stock image 4.2.2 still no satellite was found by my phone
I have look alot of places some say just turn off and turn on the location but that doesnt help either
Can you guys please help me
Right now I am running Rootool box the stable version with fancy kernal.
When i turn on gps... in the status bar it says searching for gps forever.... and the gps icon keeps on blinking.
Thank you
Have you changes Radio baseband?
If not then change it and maybe then GPS works!
GPS and radios have nothing to do with each other.
Does everything else work ok, like phone and data? Is the phone activated and have a good sim? Are you using the gps outside with a clear view of the sky? Have you waited up to 20 minutes for satellite acquisition?
If you answer yes to all the above, try downloading gps status app and use that to download new agps data. See if that works. If not, sounds like you may have a hardware issue.
