Google Map/GPS Broken

My GPS doesn't lock anymore. I think it may be something with the phone itself because I've tried more than four different ROMS and it searches for GPS/location on all of them.
I am using the latest Pacman AOKP ROM as my daily driver. I tried another GPS app (telnav) and I got an instant lock. I also tried the GPS fix app but that didn't help.
Does any one know what might have gone wrong or have suggestions on how to fix it. Thanks

I had the same weird problem you have. I got it working and it's been fine ever since.
Heres wat I did.
Went to settings > Application manager > ALL > Maps
Cleared Cache
Cleared Data
Uninstalled Updates
Then Unninstalled Maps
Rebooted and installed Maps from the market.
Enabled the GPS
Started navigation and it worked just like it should.
Good Luck!

Does anyone know why this is happening to some people? I didn't do anything different than I normally do when flashing, but for whatever reason my GPS stopped working.

Were you coming back from a 4.2 Rom, that's the only thing I can think of that I did differently

Actually I was in AOKP and then I flashed the latest version of Frosty, but my GPS was working after that. Then I flashed a few different Kernels to see which one worked better. I flashed Ktoonsez first, then Deviant, and finally I settled on Xone Kernel. It was then that I realized my GPS didn't work. So I'm not sure what messed it up.

Thank you. I was about to give up fixing my gps.
I tried other jb builds (custom and stock).
I tried other stock ics builds.
I tried those gps "fixes" on the appstore.
..nothing.
Finally tried the FIRST ics build (T999UVALEM)..worked!

I have the same issues that you... since install the v10 and my S3 is also slow .. I like the version v10 .. but i had to return to v9.1

Haven't tried any version other than 10, but will give it a shot. Now that I think about it my s3 is kinda slow. Thanks for the idea!

Have you read thru the rom thread? If its a rom issue others surely will have reported it.
Otherwise it may have more to do with the flashing method you may have used than with the rom itself.

Whatever issues given in this thread should have been cleared if op or anyone having these issues goes through development section thread and flashes rom correctly as per instructions these issues wouldn't have come

Just love how ignorant supposed techies point blame instead or correcting the issue. Dont be ignorant.
I wasnt aware of an existing post on this or I wouldnt have asked for help.
I did ask for help and not complaints.
Other than that this is by far not my first time loading roms, I think after the 20th or 30th time I would say I know what im doing. So again save your ignorance for yourself.

Md5 check the download . Try again with a full wipe? I. I'm v10 and have no issues. Usually a clean install will resolve most problems. Good luck.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

Only a few problems here!
I've been using Wicked since ICS days with very few problems. Had an issue with Bluetooth that was resolved by wiping and reflashing the ROM back on ICS.
Since switching to Jelly Bean, about the only issue I've had is S Beam and/or Wi-Fi Direct connection/file sharing. In the two cases I've had, a dirty flash has fixed the problem.
Other than that, the ROM has been great for me!
Good Luck!

LMT Stopped working
I have been using Wicked Rom v_9.1 for about three months with NO problems. All of a sudden LMT service stopped working. The pops up. Unfortunately LMT has stopped working. So I see that V10 is out so I Flasj V10 the proper way thinking that would take care of the problem. NOPE same thing happened. Any ideals?

How in GOD'S name do I do that? I was under the impression that when I flashed a new rom that would have cleared out everything.

Its an option during flash. Or boot recovery and factory reset.

Are you restoring data or any backups?
Have you searched in or asked in the rom thread to see if its a common or known issue?
I think someone else had a similar problem. (Isnt lmt related to some app called pie?) If so uninstall and reinstall the app.
Otherwise, try clearing data for lmt and force stop. Then reboot and see if it still acts up.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium

I'm personally glad you started this thread. Because of my low post count, I can't post in that forum.
I've only been using this rom for a couple days and I love it. The only problem I've had was that I can't seem to get the Awsome Beats to do anything. Changing the settings doesn't seem to make any noticeable difference in sound quality. I know it's not a big deal but I think it would be a cool thing to have since I use my phone to listen to music almost as much as I use it to communicate.
I'll admit that I didn't read through the 1000+ pages but I did do a search of the thread and didn't come up with anything.
Oh, I'm using the stock Samsung music player, Songbird and Pandora to listen to music.
Stock kernal as well.

[Q] Updated but touch screen off

Note 8 not rooted updated fine but now my touch screen is off (have to touch links below where they are) and Chrome cuts off the top of the screen. It was "suppose" to make it more stable...

Sounds like your image is offset in some way. What have you tried to resolve it so far? Reboot? Wipe cache?

Rebooted, of course. Wiped cache. But that's about all you can do. I thought there was a calibration process in Settings but, if there is, it eludes me. I can't even get the S-pen to calibrate. I suppose I could do a factory reset and start from scratch but its not worth the aggravation.

OK, that's more than just me with this problem. How about it, smart folks? Any ideas? Best I got was do a factory reset and hope for the best. Really don't want to have to re-setup my toy again.

I too hope for someone more clever than me to figure out a workaround. Until then, Firefox for Android looks and performs wonderfully on this tablet - in portrait or otherwise. Check it out!

Actually, I haven't been able to recreate this problem since I posted this. I'm wondering if it was caused by the cover I used to use which had a very strong magnet. I'm now using the Samsung light cover.
If I see it again I will post it, but so far so good, knock on wood.

I have a nonmagnetic cover so that's out. Too bad for me! Still with me.

Got another update Monday - not sure what it did but it was there - and it seemed to fix the issue for awhile. Now it's back the way it was. Oh well.

Gave up and went to Opera. Fixed all the problems so the issue was Chrome not working right.

Haven't touched CM10.1 nightly ROMs for a while. But the LED Notification stopped working, stayed on an older version of CM10.1 nightly.
Gonna try that when I get home. Also PA made it to this device. Also the Jedi mind trick Roms. So many options. Wow head's spinning.
Leaning towards CM10.1 though.

No signal, can't play video
I was using CM10.0. Updated CM10.1 with corresponding gapp.
-Can't register on cellular network anymore. Can't set AWS frequency in the factory testing mode.
-All of my Video apps start legging, play videos for a little while and quit after about a minute, say video format not supported. Even though the video is mp4 format and it was playing it before quitting.
How should fix it? Flash kernel? Which kernel should I use?

I tried to resist flashing this ROM but had to give in to temptation. Said to myself no more flashing when I got into boot issues with JMTJB6. Odin flashed stock and left it unrooted! Was happy...but then temptation. Happy I did it, rock solid, butter smooth, doesn't seem to have any lag.

Thanks that did the trick. I was going mad at why the LED notifications stopped working.
Also still on the non-touch recovery, 5.0.26 the one that needs the Darkmod scripts to wipe cache and do full installs.
Also had to turn sensor on/off before it actually worked. Read that from another post from someone that helped me.
Thanks again dude.

No custom kernel. Flashed it days ago...reboot occurred today...Yes I did wait the 10 minutes after initial flash.

Just flashed 4.3 on my note 2 and everything is working fine if a bit slow.
