I have used quite a few JB roms, my GPS works perfectly. It gets locked very quickly.

I have had some GPS problems after jellybean. Read about GPS status app and fast fix app. Installed both. Locks faster than ever.

GPS working perfectly fine on my stock 4.1.1 GSM model.

Just noticed this today. Stock GSM Nexus from the Play store. Worked fine on ICS, but after the OTA no GPS lock.

I am stock 4.1.1 no root and I lock to 5m in less than 10 seconds.

Hmmm. I have never had issues with my GPS but today for some reason I can't even get a lock outside. I see up to 11 satellites but they don't lock on. This just started happening.
I'm in Texas if that matters.

Same here, never had problems with GPS until today. So weird. I even wiped and reflashed stock ROM and it still doesn't lock

This is weird. I didn't just recently move to jelly bean either. Are you in Texas as well?

No, California. I got it to work again. Get faster fix and GPS test. Set faster fix to North America and use GPS test to clear agps

That worked. What's odd is that its still not locking on to as many satellites as usual

must be something wrong with the gps servers then...

On stock 4.1.1 currently and using maps or navigation my gps lock has been incredibly slow. It also doesn't locate my location very well any more. Was perfect on ICS.

Same here. Tried the fixes described above, no success.

I'm having problems with GPS on 4.1.1 as well. Worked perfectly on 4.1

Same here, and I've had the phone (on 4.1.1, unrooted) since Monday. It's always locked quickly before today. It only finally locked on a handful of satellites after more than a half hour of searching.
I'm in Minnesota; maybe it's a CDT thing?

I am having GPS issues today too, been working fine until today. I'm in chicago

GPS problem

I have tried dark side 4.04 and Jedi knight 2 and JMT v8... previously I used to use JMT and my GPS worked flawlessy with no problem. A little while ago I started using darkside 4.04 and GPS was working well as well. Then I installed Jedi knight and since then my GPS is never able to lock on. I have tried switching back to JMT and darkside... but the GPS doesn't lock on...I've tried using the aGPS patch as well but that didn't do anything.
If someone knows how to fix this, please help me out as GPS is a part of my daily life. Thanks a lot!

I had a similar problem with my GPS taking 5 mins to lock in, and i was using DarkSide 4.04.
So i moved to [ROM] Android Open Kang Project | September 13 | Jellybean Build 1 + Nightlies, and my GPS locks in really quick.
Not sure why, DarkSide was really good ROM but the GPS was a problem casue i use it a lot while driving.
but I am really happy with my phone now (Jellybean Build 1 + Nightlies), hope this helps you.

I flashed aokp ...but the GPS problem is still there. I know my GPS works because when I go to Google maps, my initial location is correct but then it moves to somewhere else...is there a way I can delete all my GPS related files...so it starts fresh. I really need this thing fixed...any help is appreciated. Thanks
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app

There a app in the play store called faster fix. Open the app and Change your server to North American pool and apply. That usually works for me because sometimes it'll be set to Asia or not even set to anything. Hope this helps.

That's weird... I always hear about that problem but I've never experienced it. Try AOKP 9/13 with lg3 radio. That's what I'm running and gps is perfect. Also try uninstalling and reinstalling Google maps. Also use internal gps for location... This is all I've done just posting what worked for me. Let me know what happens.

Holy eff... you just solved my problem. All I did was I just left GPS satellites checked in "location services" and it locked on right away to my location and everything is good now! Thanks a lot friend.

Looks great, running Jedi-X V1. Also like the slimmer tab.

I agree 100% on the slimmer tab.

Been running it on Jedi X3 with no problems so far.....and check out the Xposed Installer in the international forums too. Got call recording working with no hassles.....

Cool I was about to ask...

Which rom to use? Jedi issues...

I am currently running jedi rom x10. I was on x11 but was having this weird issue so I reverted back. The issue is still here. When I'm home I always use wifi. If I'm home connected to wifi for awhile and I go out it doesn't allow 3g or HSPA to connect. I have to reboot the phone for it to work again. I'm guessing this is a rom issue? I haven't tried a different rom yet... anyone have suggestions?

Either cm10.1 or Myrom.

Hi Thanks for your suggestion. .. trying to stay touch wiz. ..

WOW myrom is awesome! Thanks so much for recommending it. Its super smooth and now issues on 5.1! :good:

Next time try fixing permissions before assuming the rom is the problem

I tried that as well..... Wiped and re flashed with same issue... Installed Myron and no issues...
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app

I was running the Jedi ROM x10 & x11 (switched to Jedi CM) and never had these issues.... I can assure you that it is user error and not the ROMs fault.
Are you using cwm or twrp?
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium

I am gonna have to say it probably was a bad download. Even if u did a reflash it probably was not with a fresh download. I have had similar issues and it took a while to get the download right. I always shut off my antivirus in case it wanna get dumb a block a file it thinks it bad. I have been on the rom u are using now and left cause if u try and ask a simple question u sometimes get flamed. It was just a bad experience with a few idiots over their.

In case it helps you, this Samsung Galaxy Note 2 ROMs list is regularly updated.
It's usually updated daily, but I'm preoccupied with immigration and work stuff at the moment. As soon as things settle down, the daily updates will resume.

used Tweaked....best rom i have ever used
solid rom, with all the features of stock phone plus a ton of additional features such as skip tracks with volume and changing the colors of toggles and text, clock etc, asop lockscreen and more
with aroma you can install what you want or remove what you want, ++++
no reboots or freeze and excellent battery

Tweaked is my favorite TW ROM. Very stable and tons of options.

Tweaked is the only rom ive used with my note2. All I did with my previous devices was flash flash flash. does anyone have any reasons to switch from tweaked? thanks

None. I'm running an AOSP ROM right now, Vanilla RootBox. For TW, Tweaked is my favorite right now. It's not missing anything at all. That being said, I love me some AOSP!!

+1 for tweaked. I tried all roms but tweaked is the only perfect one :good:

Jedi Master 10 is the best ROM i have used so far.
i have issues with the phone SOMETIMES freezing when i open certain programs. the Quadrant Benchmark Test. It will happen with the CPU Manager. I let it handle the problem like a PC... I wait. The issue seems to have resolved itself after a while. also, some widgets are cut off. like my alarm clock doesn't fully show.
I am currently getting a consistent benchmark score of 7800. the FPS on the test is even at 58 most of the time, sometimes flickering to 59.its the smoothest i've seen this phone run the test
in all honesty. I would run the PAC-man ROM all day, but they seemed to have completely disabled all S-Pen functions (which is half my note 2 use). and i dislike the Android Keyboard. I prefer the Samsung keyboard with the numbers at the top like a laptop. I also do not like the quickness of changing from screen to screen its a snappy ROM with almost no flaws that I can detect
I also like CleanROM, but it has some things about it that turn me away from it. The auto correct function when texting is a bit sloppy. the S-Pen functions and writing don't seem to be as good. the speed of the phone is around 5000 on the benchmark.
if you don't use the S-Pen functions, and don't mind the Android Keyboard, try PAC-man.

No lock with gps..

I have never had this much trouble with my S3 to get the gps to work. Its always within 1200m range and never at 10m like I'm use to. What can I do to get this problem fixed. I live in Canada.

Are you using Google maps?? If so clear the cache/data then restart the app should help. Was having that issue b4, and that fixed the problem..

tried it - same thing.

Well,
It's a drastic method, but it seems the galaxy series of phones is plagued with left overs in the hidden file structure.
We root and can see it, but if the devices are stock, that data sits and churns forever, causing what I believe to be, many of the device issues we can't explain.
I suggest a factory data reset, as this will reset "ALL" of the device sensors, and the data contained within the applications that use them.
It is a bit problematic to set up the device again, but if you backup any important info like e-mail etc. and do the wipe, it is pretty quick to set up again.
At least this method will tell you the condition of the sensors within the device.....g
