LG Optimus G Pro - F240L

I have a problem with the wifi of the F240L (Korean version) works unstable (speed connect unstable, up/down too slow, reconnect too much) . Current solutions do not have to fix, are looking forward to helping to fix it. Thanks
So what are going to do to fix it? If you're asking how to fix it, this should be in Q and A.

i had the same problem .. if your phone is not rooted yet.. the update from software update should fix it ..as it did in my case…
the problem arises from the korean u - wifi and u - mobile components when surfing from a non korean router
The device is new. Im sure a ota will fix this. That or custom roms.

GPS program called "Automapa" - problem

This is my first post so hello to everyone.
First of all, i apologize for my bad english.
For about a month I`m a user of LG E975. Telephone is brilliant, but I have one issue.
I use very often GPS navigation, and I am used to use program called "Automapa".
This is a polish program. On my earlier device HTC HD 2 everything works fine, but
on LG E975 GPS Signal is very unstable. One time it is, but after a few second it`s vanished, and
the situation repeats. This is not dependent on the weather.
Other aplications, like tomtom, naviexpert, or google maps works fine.
Could anyone tell me what is the problem? Is the GPS reciver on LG so weak?
I would like to enclose the trial version, but I can`t do it without 10 posts,
so if anyone would like to help I can send the trail version by PM, or mail.
If anyone can test it, or solve the problem I`ll be grateful
Try gpsfix from market.
Maybe the app can't properly use the hardware.

I have tried Fasterfix and GPS Status&Toolbox from market.
Situation has not change.
I think that problem is deeper inside.

Did you root your phone. ....and what else you did kernel. ....rom ..recovery .....etc
You need to know that HTC devices use real aGPS assisted lock and top notch internal hardware. .

I have rooted phone, but still oryginal firmwere.
If there is a chance to improve gps working on other rooms I can try to change it.
I didn`t do it because everything else works fine for me on stock rom.
Is there a custom rom for LG E975 that works like a stock?
Im tired of changing roms on HTC HD2, I have changed about 30 roms on HD2.
I have bought LG to have some spare time
But if there is no other option I will do it

[Q] GPS stopped working!

please help. on my LG Optimus G e975 stopped working GPS. I initially thought that this due to custom firmware. but when I got back to the official firmware and it does not work ( I also edited gps.conf under my region, also tried various programs to find satellites-nothing helped. satellites no catches at all! maybe someone encountered this problem and can help will be very happy! Sorry for bad english (
Same problem on F180K, Tried different Stock roms and gps.conf, no effect.
I'm 3rd.....same problems...no gps lock.Although in copilot live i get "GPS signal is found, determine the location" message,it get's stuck like this for ever.I tried anything i could think of,nothing worked. I guess i'll just send it to warranty.

Hmm... Interesting. Just out of the blue? What exact model is your phone? Looks like we already have reports on E975 and F180. I have strange things happening with my F180's GPS sometimes, like reported lock on a single satellite (physically impossible), but generally it works well (and I hope it keeps working)...

What application are you using to check your GPS? I don't know if mine is working, on Maps, it detects where I am. And I also can locate it through Device Location Manager. Please clarify if what I am saying is related to this query. Thanks.

There are some good apps that show you the detailed status of your GPS system, including the number of sats, A-GPS data availability, exact coordinates, positioning error, time to fix, etc. The one shown on the screenshot in [email protected]'s post is GPS Status & Toolbox, I use it all the time. Another good one is AndroiTS GPS Test. Yet another is GPS Essentials. Just search on Play Store...

BTW, just out of curiocity... Since nothing seems to work, as you said, how long is "forever"? I mean, what is the longest time you left the phone waiting for a fix? Theoretically, a cold start of a GPS receiver can take up to 12-15 min (if I recall correctly) to the first fix, or even longer for some receivers that do a wide PRN search on cold start. So, I wonder what happens after leaving the phone's GPS waiting for about 20 min or so? I would think if it doesn't get a fix after that long, you can conclude it's most probably a receiver's problem. Just thinking out loud here...
Installed the GPS test apps, AndroiTS GPS Test and it is really taking too long determining my GPS Status.
I let it outside,for more than 30 minutes. My gf's arc made the cold lock in less than 1 minute. When i first got the phone,it made the cold lock in about 10 seconds. I was amazed. It was the fastest lock ever. I'll try the apps you mentioned. About google maps,it is irrelevant,because it's using data. I tried gps fix and gps status pro. Nothing worked. Again,on arc s it fixed in less than a minute. I'm starting to think it's hardware.

I am also now worrying if it's with the hardware. Does that mean that most OG units have damaged/problematic GPS sensor? Is it software or really hardware related? I was at first confident that mine is working, since Maps can detect my location.

Technically, in that time it should get a lock even if it really was a true cold start (no A-GPS data, no almanac, no ephemeris)... Did something happen around the time you lost the GPS? New ROM flash, possible physical damage, anything? I am not an expert in this by any means, just trying to apply some logic and common sense -- I am pretty sure you went through all that yourself... GPS on phones is weird sometimes. I had a couple of phones (Samsung i8000 and LG P990) that totally lost GPS lock with some particular ROMs, but went back to normal after flashing another ROM. I also had to reboot my SGS2 several times to get GPS locking again. And all the apps I know that are made to improve the time to fix are only changing GPS configs to set the NTP server and the Xtra server for A-GPS data, that's pretty much it...
I know ,and one of the best app is gps fix.
About the issue, don't know when it appeared. I even try to do a hard reset from hidden menu,nothing worked. all gps tests from the same hidden menu are negative. No phisical problems(never dropped the phone, it's well protected). I think monday i'll send it to warranty. If i'm lucky enough, i might get a G2 instead,because my carrier won't sell G no more . It happened in the past, i have friend who got their galaxy s2 replaced with the S3 . I think this is possible, because i payed the same amount of money for the G in march,at the same monthly fee(320 euros). So, wish me luck .

[Q] LG Optimus G Pro (F240L) - Wi-Fi problem

Hi guys,
yesterday I received my LG Optimus G Pro, which I have ordered at AliExpress.
The happiness soon was replaced by dissapointment. The Wi-Fi is not working at all.
Firstly with Android 4.1 it connected to my home WiFi and I had internet access for about a minute. Then the phone crashed and rebooted. After updating to stock KitKat the behaviuor was slightly different: The WiFi buttons switches on and off during conncetion. So no access to my home WiFi at all.
I recorded a (bad quality) video of it. Just search on Google/YouTube for
"LG Optimus G Pro (F240L) - Wi-Fi problem"
Is it a hardware issue? Or is there anything I can do about it?
Hard reset (Power+Volume down) doesn't work either.
It's the Korean F240L version, by the way. Maybe some of the provider crapware interferes?
Quite a shame, because the rest of the phone is amazing. Really enjoy it. But no working Wi-Fi is a no-go.
Thanks for your support!
Rene

GPS fix Optimus G Pro

I need to know if any one has a fix on how to make the GPS on the optimus g pro work. I can't seem to get it towork. I have use many of the GPS test apps to fix the problem however they can seem to find a gps signal or if they do they can lock in to it.
I tried many cell phones of LG but I am facing GPS signal problem in all mobiles. Samsung, Motorola is best for GPS using. If any have solution for LG Mobiles so please share with us.
This solution worked for me:
