Hi all..
I have probem with MIUI, i flashed 2.1.20 on my defy and everything is nearly perfect but GPS is not working correctly. On official rom gps position would be detected in seconds indoor and outdoor. Now I cang get fast fix even out.
Any suggestion? I am in europe. I try changing ntp server but little help if any...
Try GpsFix from the market, anytime I've had trouble with GPS it's always worked for me.

got the same problem with doom custom kernel and different custom roms
It's very strange. To test it better download GPS test from Play Store. Try it with any ROM or Kernel. CM9, CM7, stock or MIUI.

thanks...i will try it at home.
i wounder that i could not find any improve for my gps.
at my "old" lg optimus speed, i could go in the "hidden menu" and change the gps server from the android , to the nokia server -> very fast gps fix.
is that possible at the xperia play.
but i see something strenge:
everytime, when i activate gos, it ask me, if i would connect to gps, it may coast some cash.
normaly this warning came 1 time, and it's it. but i saied over 40 times, "ok".
maybe anybody knows this bug?!
any solution?
still got GPS-Problems...
I got still problems with my GPS.
It will not navigate me.
When i go to any navigation system, it shows me, where i am (up to 100m from my real place).
But it wouldn't fix my place, where i am.
I tried a lot of rom's (also stock roms....with root and without...)diverent navigation systems....
Gps test shows me up to "0/3"Sattelites....don't know, what this means.
I think the gps modul works, because it can fix GPS (after some time) when i open the device(like i want to play) and put it in the window of my car (to the front..) but this is the only way, it works....
solutions? A friend of mine got also a xperia play and he get a fix in ~10 secounds....
plz help because i need GPS
Best regards
i have the same problem
here try flashing this in recovery its a gps fix that acquires signal from up to 12 satellites instead of just the bare minimum 4 or something like that. Ive been using and I get a location fix real fast and when I do a gps test I'm always using up to 9 never less than 7! Hope this can cure your problem. And if that does nothing for you try this: found it over in neo forum

Hey Everyone I have galaxy gio its not rooted and has a stock rom of version 2.3.6 .My Problem is that whenever I try to connect to gps it doesn't connect. Even if I am under clear sky it just cant connect........The rom is latest one from Samsung and I bought my gio in 2012 so I think hardware problems would have been solved.
Plzz help me
Anyone can help me ????
which rom you are using?

If its the Google gps you are referring to, then it is difficult to get it up and run, instead use another gps like Sygic which is great. with this app you don't need to use data, you only need to download the map of that country you want to and use it as an offline gps, just like a Garmin gps.

Actually Sygic was also not of great use. I also tried GPS test but my galaxy dose not catches Gps signals, It doesnt lock to any satellite...
What could be the problem with my phone???

I have no problem with Sygic, it connects quite fast to satellites... what ROM are you using?
I had a bit of problem with this.It took almost 3-4 mins to locate my location and was really slow.I didn't like the gps at all but now with htc explorer it's lightning fast.so probably it's a fault of gio...

GPS speed really differs between ROMs. Stock tends to connect pretty slowly. If you are willing to use custom roms, there are some who work significantly better. I'm using Enhanced236 and I love it. Tried to install CM9 RC1 but GPS won't work at all
GPS Status & Toolbox
Try this:
can't post the direct link so search on the google play markt for: GPS Status & Toolbox
This problem is still current on the Gio. I have several friends who got them new recently, shipped with Android 2.3.6. The problem is simply that the GPS, much of the time, cannot connect. Without a data connection it NEVER works (!!!) even out in the open. Gps status shows no satellites; Google maps cannot connect.
One of them rooted hers and is using some scripting hack which periodically erases gps configuration files - this fixes all problems. So the problem seems generally software bound, not hardware. Two years after this device has been released it still seems Samsug didn't care much about fixing it... pretty bad.
Because of the nature of aGPS I'd suggest "GPS Status & Toolbox" AND "GPS Aids" from Play Store. Should cut down cold fix time to a fairly reasonable 20-30s instead of MINUTES.
Hello,
first, sorry for my bad english.
I am using the app arliberator with my xperia ion, before i had an xperia p and the same problem.
The GPS signal stops every 3-4 seconds for 1-2 seconds and again and again and again.
I changed now from the xperia p to the ion but having the same prob.
I tried to change to cyanogenmod 11, but this is not compatible with the integrated xperia hdmi ports
In my iphone4 with the appradio 100 the gps works perfekt, but i dont like the iphone
A Member here called "=JSG=" wrote that it would work perfect with : Rogers Rom 4.0.4
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2135537
But i don`t if it works 100 with the gps.
but i cannot contact him because i need 10 posts first
I would be very grateful i someone could help me
best regards

Hello,
I've recently bought a new xperia arc. I've rooted it and after that i installed several roms (4.4.2 - 4.4.3). These roms had different kernels. On all roms wifi supposed to be working, but after a few minutes it doesn't work anymore. I have to restart wifi and after that it works for around 5 minutes. (5 minutes with screen on) Now I was heading to another home and over there, the wifi worked perfectly. So I suppose the problem is caused by our router (thompson TG789vn). The stock wifi from my phone worked perfectly.
This problem was on my xperia X8 too (rooted and android 4.2), but did'nt exist on my xperia J (stock kernel/rom). A friend of mine has the same problem at our home too with a Xperia Neo (stock kernel/rom). Soo it looks like a strange problem. Can someone help me? I tried everything (statici p, google search, other kernel etc.)
Sorry for bad english
