Google location services :s

Hi guys,
My Google location services show my location a few meters away from my router (20m at least)
I have tried going to another location with another router. Same thing happens. It shows the same distance which I face on mine.
I tried resetting router, turning on/off Google location services, changing ROMs.
It used to be correct when I was on gingerbread. I don't know if ICS has caused it or something else.
Anyone facing this issue?

Mine randomly turns itself off. It's done so about 3-4 times in about as many days. For instance, I went to bed last night, with it on (I always leave it on, in fact) and this morning it was in the off position. Not just "not connected" but completely switched off. Anyone elses' phone do this?

Disable the preinstalled "AT&T Smart Wi-fi" app. I don't know if it's supposed to, but it turns off your wifi while the phone screen is off and the phone is idle. I disabled the app in Settings > Applications > All > Uninstall Updated > Disable and have not had the problem since.

I seem to be having this issue with my 5GHz network but not my 2.4GHz network. AT&T Smart Wifi is already gone.

CM10 GPS & Battery

Is there any time frame when we can expect a fix on these two items?
These two fixed would make CM10 satisfactory for me.

try flashing dec 07 nightly see if that helps with the battery.
when i flashed cm10 i had the same problem with gps. go to settings - location access- and make sure its on, gps satellites and wifi/mobile network are checked . GPS source should be "use internal GPS". after that stay in settings and go to accounts- google-location settings- "let Google apps access your location" set to on. i hope this helps

CM10 12/5 >> gps gives big range for location, never locks
CM10 doesn't show gps icon, right..?

Battery is user dependent. We all use our phones differently. Battery might be good for me but poor for you.

Is there a way to fix it without flashing stock rom?._.

first u need to see if ur getting any kind of lock. open navigation app and search for a place. if its stuck on "searching for gps" ur not getting a lock.
try this:
go to settings - location access- and make sure its on, gps satellites and wifi/mobile network are checked . GPS source should be "use internal GPS". after that stay in settings and go to accounts- google-location settings- "let Google apps access your location" set to on. i hope this helps

you could try the steps in the sticky of this thread. if that doesnt work then resort to stock and get it fixed. it's a relatively quick process with mobile odin and everroot.

Any solutions to GPS freezing in GA10?

Mainly happens with Facebook (have locations disabled but still turns on the GPS and tries to get a lock)
Randomly the GPS will try to get a lock (or even get one) and stay on, even after the application that was using it is closed... Have tried using terminal to stop the location service and doesn't do anything...
Anyone found a workaround for this (besides the normal rebooting)... It started to eat the battery like crazy when it does this

I have this same problem. My solution was to stop using the Facebook app as it is the only one that causes me the problem.

I've had the same problem with the Facebook app, I suggest turning the GPS off from the pull down bar before entering the app all together

[Q] My widgets are becoming unresponsive

I have my phone setup something like this using zooper widgets:
https://i.imgur.com/3zKGS5K.png
Each icon is actually just an image with a link to open the app in the widget.
It has worked fine without problems for like, I dunno, 2 years i've had my phone and been using it like this?
But sometime in the past 3-4 months, the widgets have just started becoming unresponsive. I press an icon to launch an app and nothing happens.
I've tried re-creating every single app-link on each widget, I try restarting nova launcher, tweaking the nova launcher widget settings, nothing sems to work.
I can only restart my phone and then there's a 50/50 chance that they will work again as if nothing was wrong to begin with. But then an hour later, after doing nothing on my phone, they might just suddenly stop working again.
I'm at a loss to explain this, can anyone help? I just can't figure out why this is happening at all.

Nope.
And I made sure app-ops were default (disabled) for everything so it wasn't affecting zooper or anything, but no dice there either.
