Hi
I have bought three sprint lg g2 ls980 and i am not able to get gps signal to lock on any of my phones.
I have unlocked them using the method mentioned here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2655133
2 of them are on stock 4.2 rom and 1 is on optimusg3.
This is what I get when I run the GPS test app
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So the GPS is able to detect the satellites but not able to lock on any.
Please help me out
If you want GPS you basically have two options: get a GPS unit or get a different phone. Due to hardware problems getting GPS to work on the G2 is next to impossible. My daughter and I have G2s and GPS doesn't work on either one. I sent mine back to LG for repair, they said they fixed the GPS antenna, and now I have even worse GPS reception than before I sent it to them. It's a problem with the antenna connections in the phone and the only thing you can do is keep getting it repaired until they get it right. There is no software fix.

Guys, I'm really frustrated right now. Since the update my phone has been like this:
I've already tried 3 basebands and none of them seemed to fix the problem. Any idea what the problem might be?
I have a strong signal where I am, so I don't believe it's the radio on the new firmware.
However, maybe try a reflash of the firmware or a factory reset?
Beyond that, maybe there was some sort of service glitch/outage with your actual provider?

I've been on the Cdma 4.0.4 leak for a few months. Here is what my signal looks like... GSM may looks different, but you can try to get a better picture using Real Signal.
Yes, it's my app, but I'm not trying to advertise, just trying to offer a useful tool. (=

hello everyone,
So i still had an htc touch pro 2 until a couple days ago and they upgraded me to an evo 4g through their replacement program. Anyway this phone is a refurb and I noticed something strange.
Here are my initial download speeds at home when I first got the phone.

Ok so then i did a power cycle and the speeds dropped the following
So my question is whether I have a bad radio, or if it is something that is wrong with every phone.
In order to fix the issue I have to update the prl then do a update profile twice. then go into the ##3282# and do the profile update from there so that it goes through the hands free activation.
I appreciate your help
Thank you
**I searched all around but it seems most people just experience the issue all the time and don't get it fixed until the device is replaced**
Anyone know where the location of the wifi antenna location is on the Glide?
Dropped my phone a while ago and the only damage seemed to be to wifi, now I have to stand 2ft away from the router to get -70db to -80db. I assume the antenna came loose but I've checked damn near every connector and have had no results.
I can inlcude some pictures of the insides if necessary.
Hopefully this might help -

I have the same issue. My phone works fine with new modem and Wicked 10 rom but my wife exact settings and no signal. However I am in best coverage tmobile area. Its just weird. Could it be an issue with antena receiver. I checed the solution with Sim card but same thing. Anyone knows further steps? Thanks

I had issues with the same thing. I just through mine in airplane mode for a couple minutes and then brought it back and it has worked fine since. Mine would just drop signal with no warning in places that are perfectly fine for me normally. Hope it helps. Cheers!
I have the T-mobile One M8, and I'm using it on MetroPCS. The phone worked great until I sent it to HTC to get the screen replaced. After receiving the replacement, the location cannot "fix", so apps like google maps or waze just sit at "waiting for location" indefinitely. I tried some different GPS testing apps and it seems like the phone is finding between 12-24 satellites but not connecting to them. (screenshot attached)
So far Ive:
Reset the phone
Toggled: GPS, airplane mode, wifi, mobile data, high/device only location modes.
I even sent it back to HTC and it came back with the same problem.
Android Version
5.0.1
HTC Sense Version
6.0
Software Number
4.20.531.4
Any ideas before I loose the phone for another two weeks returning it to HTC.
