A little over 3 months ago I moved from Kokomo, Indiana to a town in Kentucky. I have changed my phone number and have a local number. I am having an issue getting the weather widget to the right city no matter what rom I flash. It keeps wanting to switch back to my old location of Kokomo. The town I live in doesn't come up as one because well I live in a small farm town. It's getting pretty irritating. Anyone else experience this and how do I fix it?
Note: This seems to happen when I am on my home wifi. I am sitting here trying to duplicate it. On 3G it goes to the right city. On wifi it is defaulting to another city.
Thanks for the assistance.

I was on CM7 and could not get a GPS at all. Tried DW2.6 and could not get a lock either, even with the GPS patch and standing outside. I may have seen fixes for this issue a while ago but can't find them for the life of me

I've used navigation and GPS tester successfully before, it was only recently that it malfunctioned. I will check out the FasterFix tip
So the past couple days my mobile connection is being cut off, for around 30-45 seconds every 10ish minutes. It comes back on its own but it's getting kind of annoying.
Also, my mom and brother have gotten lte on their phones which made its appearance yesterday for the first time in my neighborhood, and I have yet to get it, we live in the same house. You think maybe these have something to do with each other? On jelly bean running BlackJelly rom

Sounds unrelated, but does your GPS currently work? I had the same issue with data and LTE the other day and my GPS didn't work. But I've since been able to fix my GPS and that also fixed my data dropage (can't test LTE).

I opened up maps and gps is working fine, so is Google now. Is it possible that it's just a simple sim card issue?

It could be. It's more likely an issue with your APN. There's a specific one you have to use for LTE to work (under the assumption you're on ATT).

Has any one got this issue with the gps not working or stoped yet
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium
Yes! My GPS periodically stops working, every 3-5 days, and the only way I have found to get it back is to reboot. I have googled the issue and turned up nothing. Running on stock ROM.

I have had this problem 2 or 3 times so far over the last couple weeks. Have had zero GPS problems for months. I am rooted and find that if I reset and redownload the A-GPS data it fixes it until it happens again.
Yeah mine does not work either

I tried clearing AGPS data with GPS Status, but didn't seem to help, only a reboot did the trick for me.
We'll see how long I make it this time after the reboot from the multi app update.

I haven't been able to get a gps lock since yesterday after using navigation on my phone. Any time I open an app that uses location services gps will kick in and will stay stuck on searching for location
Not sure if this is a widespread issue or something wrong with my phone

I guess the weather doesn't help things

I'll assume with all that went down there could be extra cell usage and cell towers not functioning. Cellphone GPS does use the cell towers for location.
