How to restore GPS to its defaults? - Samsung Captivate Glide

Hello,
is there any way to restore GPS settings, well I think all the files, which are connected with GPS will need to be restored = ).
regards

Simply reflash your current rom with wipes. That should be enough.
Or, you can take the needed files from the ROM, and replace them on their places with root explorer, setting the correct ownership.

The second option seems to be interesting, do You mean that I can extract somehow files from, for example, PAC MAN firmware?

Every custom firmware - is a simple .zip file, that can be opened with winrar for example. So u can open it, get to the right path, where the file is, and take it anywhere.

ok, so far I found 3 files:
- gps.conf
- sirfgps.conf
- gps.tegra.so
Can I swap the last file which is basically a lib?

I dont think you have to, there are no settings stored inside, so the files must be identical.
Only needed if u corrupted it in any way, I think.
I can say nothing about danger of swapping libs anyway.

hey, I've noticed [ I know - speedy ] that you are from Moscow, don't You have any problems with GPS? I have very poor singal 5/6 sattelites.

Well, indoors its bad (1 sat and no lock), but outdoors im quite satisfied with 7-9 sats and normal lock speed.
Most problems were on previous versions of CM - I had 1-2 sats outdoors, and at least 10 minutes to lock the first time.
But now, on the last CM version, i think its quite ok, have lock in ~1 minute without data/wifi, and a qute fast lock with internet availible.
I compare with moto milestone 1, which had an awesome GPS signal even indoors, and had lock in seconds without internet.

just copy to SD and add your Startup.txt (according to your device).
I added "acpuclock.oc_freq_khz=691200 acpuclock.force_turbo=1" to the startup.txt - you can try and see the result.

Stay away from this
I wouldnt install this
Dev never puts instructions, never supports his rom. Doent even put a link on here to download it.
Then when you get it installed, it doent work.
I would stay away from this. Dont support Devs that do these things
bad links
I know this is an old thread but is there any way I could get this rom on a mirror link that is working, the main link on the tread just keeps sending me to livid download manager, the same as the blogspot posts do. I don't want a new download manager I just want the rom.

Tested it on CM9 and it worked..but without the voice recognition which is a normal bug still..but you can search manually and works well on our phone
Works but without voice recognition. Which is a huge advantage but not vital.

yup, this one worked, link in the first post should be updated.
but its showing example cards, but when I try to search sth, the page is blank, and when I touch it it goes to normal search results. seems like its very buggy atm, or for my country not all of the feautures are available.
but, good to see this.

Any luck with that yet? I am in a similar situation. I flashed CM10 but miss the stock alarm clock. I am currently using Alarm Clock Xtreme from the play market which is the closest I have found so far.
Trying...
I am new to this so I have been trying to teach myself as I go. This is what I have done so far:
1) I managed to get the .apk and .odex from stock.
2) Copied them to the system/media folder
3) Matched the permissions on them both in ES File explorer.
4) Moved them to system/app
4) Restart device
This is still not working and will not install. I feel like I am either missing a crucial step (most likely) or it is not compatible.

If it's a Samsung touchwiz app it won't work for aosp roms, without some modification to the app itself, it's not compatible.
I recently disabled this service on my stock JB device. I took a look at the OS logcat file and was concerned seeing approx 100 errors every few seconds. Attached is a sample, which repeated along with lots of other mystery errors. Anyone know what it means? There were no signs of trouble using the phone, but seemed excessive. I had tried the widget once a few weeks ago, then removed it. No alarms were set. Am I over reacting? What does it mean?
Sorry for the html tags. Also attached link to full log file if anyone has any insight into this or the other errors constantly thrown. Is this normal?
Thanks!

This looks like it requires some hardcore reprogramming which unfortunately is beyond my capabilities at the moment. I am self teaching myself this stuff as I go and have minimal programming experience right now. Coming from TW to an ASOP rom can be tricky from what I have been reading.

Welcome to Sony. Reboot your comp and if it still doesn't show up then god knows.
Have you got latest version of flashtool installed?
Not near my pc, but am sure theres the option to browse for the ftf file in flashtool? Just make sure source folder is pointed to the firmware folder your ftf is in and flash.

updatetable via updater app?
Is it true as stated in the official website that this ROM a-GPS is only optimized for Spain? Does anyone here can confirm that the Mi 8 GPS works without any issue outside of Spain region? Thanks
Nice rom but show non english word when unlock mi in setup but this rom better than EU rom.
unfortunately this rom also has the bug where GPS stops working after a while,the same as all other aftermarket miui roms I tried. developers are actively working on it, I hope they figure it out soon.
im not sure ob out optimisation for Spain, but as far as I understand it only means GPS might connect slightly slower in other regions.
