I've flashed this ROM (MildWild-CM 3.3) and GPS is not functioning anymore. I cannot get a lock.
GPS Test tells me that zero satellites are in view. I've tried to apply this patch:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1466516 with the Google Specific and Google Specific Alternate packages but it doesn't seem to work. Flushed the AGPS data multiple times to no avail. Have rebooted multiple times already. It concerns an unbranded Desire.
Further information:
HBOOT: 6.93.1002
Radio: 5.11.05.27
Anyone got an idea?
try upgrade to latest radio
Thanks for your reply. I flashed the radio and it didn't appear to work yesterday, but a few mins ago I was able to get a fix in about 10 secs.
Thanks again!

I started out with a Vodafone AU
Firmware 1.85.861.3 CL331649
Radio 12.28.h.60.140fU_26.06.02.27_M
Then I flashed CM7 - didn't take not of the radio version but location stopped being found on google maps etc.
so flashed Virtuous 1.0.2 which uses radio 12.28b.60.140eP_26.03.02.26_M
still no location found.....
I tried flashing radio 12.28h.60.140fP+26.06.02.27_M and leaving Virtuous 1.0.2 on, still nothing...
Don't have a backup of my original vodaphone stock firmware but I guess I could flash a 1.34 stock or something... I'm on my ~5th flash today though and I'm running out of patience. is there something I'm missing that stops the location function working?

I ended up putting CM7 back on (which uses 12.28.h.60.140fU_26.06.02.27_M by the way, didn't know that until the 2nd time I flashed it) and it works fine now, I guess wiping the phone enough times got rid of the EFS data?
Anyone got any other advice?
what controls the GPS, is it the radio or kernal?
i have tried
3 or 4 radios and matched RIL's (now running the lastest radio and RIL)
am now on my 4th differnet ROM (now running leedroid v3.01)
i have tried Fasterfix and gps status app's
my phone is not in a case
nothing seems to make it better sometimes i get a fix within seconds other times it takes 10mins or longer if at all, before my last OTA update upto 1.8x my gps was great no problems

Radio controls software (the software -> hardware partnership), Kernel the hardware.

Is this the same for all apps (Maps, GPS Status, My tracks etc.) or just Maps?
FYI: I had a brief fling with LeeDroid and the GPS was perfect.

its basically for anything that uses GPS
runkeeper
navigation
gps status
location
ect......
just tried reflashing the radio latests + the latests RIL + leemod kernal, used fasterfix then reset the AGPS data via gps status got a fix within 5seconds will see how that goes not hopefull as its nearly always the same great to start with and then it takes ages again, even if i reset the agps data
Are you confirming that the RIL flash is actually being completed (by checking using terminal)
Code:
getprop "gsm.version.ril-impl"
??
Radio_12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2_test
RIL_12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2
just put that in terminal and got
HTC-RIL 2.2.0131HM (mar 18 2011, 00:40:15)

Hi
After a while I havent figured out the exact sequence of events.
Data no longer connects.
Wi fi continues to work.
I usually have to go into airplane mode to correct this.
This use to happen from memory on the Stock ROM (its been a while since I have run that).
When I was running OpenDesire it didnt happen (i.e. it worked fine).
CM7 worked fine.
Before putting Oxygen 2.1.6 on I did upgrade the radio to:
5.17.05.23
but then started having the problems so downgraded radio back to:
5.11.05.27
This is the recommended radio...
Any ideas?
Have you tried to reflash rom?:

Hey guys,
Don't shoot me, I've already done the research and still can't seem to find an answer. Regardless of ROM I can't get GPS to find any satellite's, fresh root, SR4.2, Synergy RC2, CM7 nightly, MIUI, Virtuous. I unrooted to see if it was a possible hardware issue, which it isn't as an unrooted phone gives me fast locks onto whatever sat is near. GPS Status shows nothing in the sky even after a A-GPS reset and download, although I know there's always at least 3 that are visible. I've tried clearing cache for any gps based app, tried running fresh rom installs instead of backups all with no luck. Any ideas guys?
Currently I'm running:
ROM - SR 4.2
Baseband - 2.15.00.07.28
Kernel - Stock Kernel from SR4.2 (2.6.32.17-g9a2fc16 htc-kernel[email protected] #1
PRL - 52341
HW Version - 0002
CWM - 3.0.0.7
HBoot - 0.92.0000
Radio - 2.15.00.07.28
Looks like I'm stuck going back to stock unrooted until I can get this fixed.
I'm having the exact same problem. Tried multiple roms and doing A-GPS resets. I'm not sure what else to try, anyone have any other ideas? May have to unroot for now so I can use GPS while traveling.

If you are in NY or other new 4g area it may be related to a problem others are having with AGPS upate VZW pushed. No ROM seems to work.
yep, it was an issue with New York. We drove to Boston on Sunday, I tried clearing my A-GPS in western Massachusetts and suddenly got a lock on GPS! Google maps then worked perfectly all the way to Boston.
Well there is no way I'm giving up root or custom roms, Google or Verizon need a better solution than that.
I actually fixed mine and never left NY, I dropped to stock then went back to SR 4.3 and haven't had a problem since, and I've flashed 3.0 roms and SR 4.3 multiple times with no problem. So if you're still having a problem unroot then reroot. It should fix it.
Hi,
I wanted to use my old HTC One V as a bike computer and remote for my Panasonic camera, but the GPS wont work anymore! All GPS apps/tools show the GPS as enabled, but they cant find any satellites, not even after hours of searching. I tried the following steps to resolve the problem to no avail:
- Went back to stock, relocked the phone, uninstalled the old TWRP recovery, installed two different RUUs, but the problem persisted, everything else works
- Went back to fully modded, installed four different ROMs, newest TWRP recovery, unlocked the phone, etc., still no GPS
- I tried the Ignorance v5 ROM, stock RUU, and CM11, 12 and 13 (everytime I used the correct kernel/boot.img)
- The phone didn't have a SIM-card, so I tried my working SIM, but still no GPS
- GPS was working when the phone was stock and also the Ignorance v5 ROM. After I lent it to a friend, I made a factory reset and wanted to try newer ROMs, thats when the GPS stopped working.
Now my questions are:
- Is there a way to view debug information on the phone, if there is an error? Like more infos, then the standard GPS apps give me.
- Should I check the installed radio and does an RUU overwrite the radio? Does the radio even interface with the GPS hardware?
- Maybe someone has a ROM-Backup with working GPS that I can try to put on my device?
- Is there a way to test the GPS antenna? WLAN, bluetooth and GSM works normal.
I will upload a screenshot of the fastboot screen ASAP.
Kind Regards
