Hi guys.
I have a orange hox, and I have recently encountered a issue with my GPS on my phone.
All was running nice and smooth until about 3 days ago. When I had my GPS on after about 20 mins it showed that it coildnt find GPS. I started up the app again and its was the same, but with navigation from google it would do that, but if I reset the prog it would work.
Any suggestions?

You could always...
...move somewhere else?
Try turning off and back on your device, that worked for me with this issue.
Do you go directly to navigation or through the car app? Not sure if this makes a difference?
I'm sure it will be fixed with a software update and some Modders have already developed a fix I think but I'm waiting for an official fix

do you have line of sight? how many sats are seen when you use something like gps status?
i have to say my agps is a bit flakey even when clearing agps and updating in gps test app.
The actual normal GPS though is rock solid. 16 in view 11 used.
got working updated to the latest lee rom amd worked thanks guys

my GS3 was working flawlessly for more than a month, and i use it as GPS everyday, to and from work. I use waze.
anyway i dont know what went wrong, today when i was driving, it started disconnecting every couple of minutes, in waze, in google maps...
i have GPS monitor app installed which shows in notification bar how satellites its connected to, so i could see it going to zero and back to 13-15 which is usually the case...
i have not installed any new app which should affect GPS, the only thing i installed and then uninstalled was "Apartment guide" app.
is anybody else having this issue? what can i do apart from reflash OS? by the way i am on wanamlite ROM.
thank you.
Never had this problem before. I would use faster gps app to resolve your problem. It sounds like the app is crashing because of incompatibility

kitkit201, thanks for your reply, but i am having this issue even with google maps, i dont think its incompatibility...and the app itself is not crashing, but only GPS disconnects...and then reconnects...

ok i have found out an app that was causing these GPS issues..it was an app named GPS Monitor (https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wMiwiZXUuaWxseXJpdW0udG9vbHMuZ3BzbW9uaXRvciJd)
i uninstalled it and everything worked fine...please note this if anyone else is using this app, it can cause issues...
ive been noticing this as well. i use a speedometer apps and it tells me how much sats im locked onto...ill randomly watch it turn red and slowly lose sat by sat till im not even connected. i dont have that app you mentioned installed.......???
Hi guys.
Recently changed to CM9 on my HD. Everything working perfect except for navigation. If I input a destination it'll find it and start working perfectly. After about 5mins it will lose the gps signal and never find it. Happens no matter where I am. Any ideas???

I just recently got the S III and updated to 4.1.1. Some strange reason whenever I open up maps app 85% of the time my GPS activates, but some of the time it will not come on. So I restart my phone and open up the maps and my GPS works right away. Has anyone seen this? Seems software related since it works most of the time without needing the reboot. Thanks for any help.

Hi everyone. Im a new note 3 user, been with the phone for a week already and loving it! The only problem is that the gps is very unstable and doesn't lock, when it lock it stays lock for no more than 5 min and the gps sign start blinking for 10 min and locks again, and then it disconnect again. Is there any workaround to fix this? What you guys think I should do? Thanks!

I use GPS Status. which is a app on the play store. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eclipsim.gpsstatus2&hl=en
You can set it to run whenever gps is used. does a better job then just having google maps use the gps. Other wise I have no problems with my note 3
FasterGPS works great for me..as well as FasterFix. Both in Play store
