4.0.4 GPS issues

Has anyone else experienced issues with the GPS having a hard time locating after the update? It used to work flawlessly on 402 but now it's pretty much worthless.

GPS has been normal for me since update. Just checked with the GPS test app and it located just fine.

GPS fine here. And there.

GPS works fine for me here. I'm on stock 4.0.4 yakju rooted. I think GPS initialization is even faster than 4.0.3 (EBMod)

Fine for me too. Faster locking actually. Are you using a custom rom, kernel?

No, completely stock and not rooted. Maybe it's just my imagination, just seems like before the update it worked great and now it can't find me. Even did my update ota.

I too have found myself with the location problem... Maps Google+ Facebook location based features do not work. I have however noticed that when you switch down to 2G it locates fine. I dont know if its data stored in that partition thats causing it maybe, if any devs can chime in and the help would be greatly appreciated.

Just an update after troubleshooting I stopped by a T-Mobile store and had my sim card replaced and that did it for me. Once its replaced make sure you cycle off and on a few times.

Interesting, I'll have to try the new sim card thing. Thanks for the heads up.

I believe if you update to the latest ported 3 minit settings it will give you an option to reclaim that area'left by brightness slider.

Oh wow that's strange. When I rebooted it was normal again. You're right it was brightness slider but something caused it to crash since I do run it.

This has been happening randomly if you leave the slider active, a bug that hasn't been addressed as it hasn't been reported. I thought it was just me messing around too much lol.

Need Help / Advice

Ok, i flashed my phone to the newest distro of ProjectX the other night, but it just kills my battery in absolutely no time what so ever. When it goes into sleep mode it requires me to remove my case, cover and battery. Than plug it into my charger and wait about 15 minutes to power it on. I cannot have my phone doing that. It must turn on at anytime for me. Other than the battery being absolutely horrible with this mod and the sleep thing i love it. Loud volume is a huge plus.......
Went back to Revolt rom and i have absolutely 0 data and volume is super low. I like Revolt as its 4.3.X but the volume is way too low and cant get any data when not on wifi, again i cannot have this i must have my data. So i tried using some app for XplosionAudio or something, but it made absolutely no difference in the phones loudness via apps like AlarmClock Extreme, messaging, ringtones etc. I really prefer to stick with Revolt simply for the 4.3.X Android, but i need help.
Any ideas on what to do to fix my data problems? Have tried installing APN Backup and Restore along with Titanium but cant get anything to work with that either.
I guess you can say im a noob when it comes to this though ive been fiddling with it for awhile, i just read instructions step-by-step before tinkering with stuff.
btw i have sprint for service.

What baseband version are you running? Also, 4.3.x ROMS are hit and miss for some people.

You need to have an ICS modem for AOSP ROMs (like FL24)

Im using FL24 on it currently.
With ProjectX i had AWESOME reception and was even getting 4g lte in some areas, on Revolt i barely get to see 3g lte kick in.

Im using FL24 on it currently.
first off....its not LTE...its wimaxx. it just shows LTE..which I think is cool,but this device doesn't get LTE.
second...use a jb modem on jb touchwiz based roms..
as for the battery life and sleep issue...check the md5 to insure u have a good download. I've been running this Rom and its variants for quite sometime with great battery life.
make sure also that no apps are causing wake locks...
but it sounds like to me that u might have a bad download.
hit me back with some more info and we will get ya straightened out...

Has anyone noticed lag after the 4.4.2 update?

Wife has been complaining that her keyboard hasn't been responsive, that its not picking up her swypes. I tried it out and I noticed that its just laggy all around. Opening/closing apps, swiping through screens. Everything is just so slow. Has anyone else noticed this?

I've been running smooth like buttah since the update. But, I flashed the update tar so my system was wiped clean. Also have done the usual tweaks (freezing/Uninstaller crap, turning off unneeded notifications, etc)

Try flashing a custom rom. It just makes things so much better

Any suggestions for which ROM?
I've always run rooted stock on my S3 but the 4.4.2 update (installed via cnexus method) is doing weird things. Sometimes it's fast. Sometimes it crashes. Usually while I'm trying to take an important call.
My criteria: stability, speed, and assurance of periodic updates, in that order. No nightlies on that device, just something that works well. It's my work phone and I want to make it last for a year.
Thanks,
BJ

I would solve the problem under stock first, otherwise you may still have the problem no matter what ROM you use. Try Odining the stock ND8 tar again? Make sure the MD5 hash matches what you downloaded for it.
Maybe it's an app you have installed? Try just adding downloaded apps one or a few at a time.
I've successfully run stock rooted ND8, Wicked X v6+, and now on Singularity.

Anyone else get the AT&T update?

My phone just got a notification that it was downloading a software update from AT&T. It then asked me to restart and now it's 50% done updating.
Just wondering what the update does? Anyone know?

Got the notification, haven't done it

Same here. Have no idea what it is. I'm coming up empty on Google too.

Yup, installed earlier, only thing I have noticed is the stagefright fix.

178 apps were "optimized" on restart. Can't see or feel anything different.

Apps are always optimized after an update.

The apps that are impacted by the update are. 178's a pretty low number but the update was only 80(ish)MB. Going from 4.X to 5.X my Note 12 optimized 600+ apps on restart. Services are considered apps too. Right after I rebooted Play Services updated itself too. To 8.1.15.

It's an app, here is what you would have seen before the update

Got mine too. Updated and poked around the settings and features to see if Samsung added anything that they removed from the Note 4. Nothing so far.
I also checked to see if the aggressive task killing stopped. I'm getting a consistent 6 apps staying loaded after some tests, previously it was four or five depending on whats open. Anyone else notice this?

I just updated and Googled idk.

There's a thread in the general section. Looks like the update fixed the wireless charging issue many of us were having as well as improving performance a bit.
