[Q] Sygic Navigation on stock 5.0.2 - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there!
This is a question especially to all Sygic users. Since ive got my m8 (which happened just a few days ago), i updated it to 5.0.2. The device is rooted and im using xposed framework.
Do you have problems with Sygic on your device? Mine is crashing all the time, sometimes i cant even download a map or start the app. Ive tried 15.0.9, 15.1.14 and 15.1.15, every version has the same problem. Im in contact with their support, but nothing helpful until now.
Ive read something about Sense 6 related crashes in a few threads, but some say it has already been fix...but not for me at least...
Thanks!

Hi, I got the same problems with Sygic and my HTC M8s,- but I have an additional problem, my GPS is usually frozen after 30 up to 60 minutes! Is there anybody, who has the same problems?

Unable to get NDrive to work properly on FroYo

Hey everyone,
I've been a lurker for a little while now but I finally decided to ask you guys for some help regarding NDrive on my HTC Desire after trying all I could think of to fix the issue.
Going straight to the topic: I've had problems with NDrive since I updated to 2.2 (either Sense or plain FroYo). What happens is that when I run NDrive 9 on my desire it quickly finds the satellites with very good signal and displays speed, altitude, coords, etc but it fails to get a fix, always says "Status: No Fix!". The strange thing is, all of the times I started up NDrive it was able to get "Status: Fix 3D" twice and it worked flawlessly until I exited the app and started it up again. Also, any other application that uses the GPS works, photo GeoTagging, Compass, and even google maps navigation. (I would use Google Nav but I don't have a 3G plan)
Here's what I tried... Going back to rooted 2.1 (worked instantly), different 2.2 roms, format and install rom and immediately install ndrive right after flashing and updating Radio.
I'm also asking this to know if it's just me or anyone else has this issue. I've tried looking around the web for something related but no avail.
Also, if it matters, the roms I tried was LeeDrOiD, OpenDesire, DeFroST (which I currently use), and one or two more that I cannot remember...
Baseband: 32.48.00.32U_5.11.05.14
Current ROM: DeFroST 5.7
HBoot: 0.80
Thanks.
Cheers.

[Q] GPS repair on CM7 - Any good repair shops?

Hey you guys
I need some help with my HTC Desire.
A while ago my GPS stopped working. It won't get a fix no matter what I try, in any app (maps, GPS test etc).
I've since rooted it and now using CyanogenMod 7. It's still not working. I assume it's a hardware malfunction. The GPS hasn't worked since my screen was replaced a few months ago by HTC.
My question is:
1. Is there anything left for me to try??
2. Does anyone know any repair places that will
a: fix my rooted phone with my CM7 ROM?
b: do it pretty quickly in a few days tops?
I would love to know if I can fix it. Many thanks to everyone that's read my post.

Send it to HTC to get it repaired. Just remember to use an RUU
Download an app called GPS status and toolbox.
Reset the GPS and download the data (using that app).
I found it helped mine.
I have a slightly different issue.
Helped with the locking though.
Im running cm7 rc1 and Im having problems with GPS not working.
Sent from my HTC Desire CDMA using XDA App

Problems with google maps, he remains paralyzed searching gps..

like the thread title says i have this problem.. my google maps is always "searching for gps" in the Navigation function
few threads ago i was posted a problem with GPS STATUS or GPS TEST...
They were not finding any satellite...
later with the help of @superstick1 & @blbean i was fixed it... now these apk finds even 7 satellites!!!!(often LOL)
but Navigation continues without work.... some suggestion?
i was tested:
1-reinstall the apk. (not fixed my problem)
2-erase data caché OF THE APP only (not solved my problem)
3-fix gps sat. with gps status(not solved)but 5 satellites found...
4-use FASTERFIX.apk and then restart my machine (not solved)
EDIT: ufff! i´m desperate more tries:
5-flashed another recommened rom from coredroid thread: 12.28g.60.140f_26.05.05.27_M3 (orange uk)but its weird because i´m living in spain (orange es) (NOT SOLVED MY TROUBLE)
6-flashed another kernel: from leedroid 2.2.9 to my current BUZZ 1.3.8.3 1.2 GHZ MAX(NOT SOLVED)

Hi SERGI.3210
We meet again. Lol. I notice from my own experience that if we often reboot our phone, the GPS state will be restarted. And hence it will take some time for the GPS to work again.
For example, I have once flashed LeeDrOid' v2.2.2 in the past few months(first time), and I got a fix very quickly. It will be within 5-15 seconds? At most it will take is 30 seconds. However, after I reboot for whatever reason(I forgot, but I am not flashing anything else), and the GPS takes more time to get a fix again. The situation got worsen when I am in the car to get a fix. Took about 5-10 minutes??
But after some time, tolerating such slow fix(I know, its annoying) it suddenly get back to normal again. Which means I can get a fix very fast again.
Many has recommended the use of GPS Status app to clear A-GPS data and then download them back again. It works for them it seems, but in some to a large extent, it did not really work for me.
Maybe you can try Ulysee Gizmos app from the market? It has the capability to download A-GPS data as well. Recently I try using it and it seems to fix my problem once again. When was it? Last two days ago. Lol. Now it still work fine. Hopefully this continues.
I am still use GPS Status to get A-GPS data. Which means I am using both of them at the same time. Probably both apps does fires out some solutions? Haha. Me not sure but you can try.
Cheers mate. =)

EDIT: i tried to install another GPS NAVIGATOR (sygic) BUT THE PROBLEM PERSISTS... i´m really sure that the problem its that my device finds gps when he wants And if it is clouded less still
I am fine here thanks. Getting ready for work now.
In your case, the problem is nothing to do with the navigation software but your GPS cannot get a fix. It may due to hardware failure.
If the situation persist, probably you should consider sending your device to HTC for a check. But make sure you turn back your phone into normal state first. (i.e. unroot your phone)
i pretty much have the same problem ...
5+ mins to lock my position ..
RcMixHD 5.5 and a changed radio... i will just burn it..

good night buddy!!!!
i have soo good noticesx100000000000
THAKE THIS:
gps status:found 8 or 9 sat.
fixed in 62 segs.
google maps:working perfectly!
finding gps at the moment
15 meters position error max. (better than my htc hero)
THE MEDICINE:
1--Though I feel sorry very much I had that flahs another CUSTOM ROM
2--Then I´VE flashed the recommended radio and was foun 3 or 4 sat...
3--and the most important: flash the RIL for this radio in this moment i was found 8 or 9 sat.!!!
the only one thing that i don´t like (nothing nothing) is the custom rom:
RCmix 6.1.0.1 (ported from desire s)
i´m COREDROID LOVER and RCMIX seems too simple but i preffer the good performance before beauty things...
Nevertheless when it does a few kilometres and tested well the GPS I will try with Leedroid (froyo) to see if I obtain the same results
Good for you buddy!
Usually if you got a fix pretty quick, it will have errors ranging to 30-50 meters(that is from what I obverse based on my device that locks within 5-15, max 30 seconds). Then it will adjust overtime. Well, still better than doesn't get a fix at all.
Hmm.. RCMis HD6.1.0.1? The Evolutionary Sense ROM? I have not try that yet.. plan to try after my exam. Currently concentrating on my exam for this month. Also quite satisfied with my current flashed LeeDrOid v2.2.3 ROM now. Lol.
Probably will be trying Miui too. I would prefer staying with Sense ROM as there is unlikely to have Premium Navigation in Non-sense ROM. If I would to try other GPS apps, I will have to pay for it. Premium Navigation is free for life for me in Malaysia + Singapore. Also finding addresses with it is easier, unlike other GPS app.(i.e. cannot search address). Probably due to the names of addresses here. Here uses Malay names and not English.

Nope, I did not. the only thing i add on is the power widgets on my notification bar. Wanted to flash kalagas theme but decided that I will try flashing them next time in future. Once reboot later GPS cannot work again.

[Q] no gps with Cool Sensation on Desire

Hi everyone,
I installed this rom a few days ago and one thing for sure is that it kicks ass (except for battery life, thanx to sense 3) BUT, because there is always a "but", I have no GPS anymore.
I never had troubles before with different roms, last one was crystal kingdom, but I can't activate GPS from widget nor directly from the parameters. If I click the widget for instance it says it's ok almost immediately (always took few seconds when it did really activate the thing) but GPS is still down.
I tried many things, several radio, RIL, reboot without battery,sd and sim but no way...
I've found some "fixes" around the net but seems not to be for Desire so I prefer asking before trying some things I'm not sure.
Phone is HTC Desire with 8go class10 sd.
Thanx
It's most likely the rom. It's prob still in beta and buggy as hell.
ok i've found a way...I go to Leedroid ! lol
So it's a ROM trouble, I noticed that the /lib/hw under Coolsense is gps.htcleo.so. As everything is ok with Leedroid, I tried to get the gps.bravo.so from it and push it to replace the one from Coolsense but unsuccessfully because of read only file.
So I stuck with Leedroid, which is a lot less buggy than Coolsense.
I have tghe same problem. I upgrated to latest Leedroid also but no luck. GPS in not fixing. I tried gps test and it doesn't seem to find any satellites. I previously tried several roms and radios but none worked. Any help?

[Q] GPS making my cell phone restart???

Can someone please help me? My gps works but after 5 - 10 minutes my cell phone just restarts. I tried many different roms even CM7 but i dont get it why it restarts only when I use gps. No apps or anything big is running in the background. Any help will be helpful thanks in advance.
I've had the same issue, mostly when using MIUI, I've installed the new GPS driver (found in the CM7 thread) and haven't had problems since.
