I've already try and test DU, but the GPS didn't work for me. Searching in some forums i've seen that other people has the same problem with DU from Davide.
There's any custom ROM without GPS problems? I need it for the car and is very annoying and frustrating not been able to use it.
I'm using cosmic and everything is working fine, including GPS.

Hi,
My GPS stopped working.
After much research and several tests, changing radio\RIL, stock rom.... could not get the GPS working.
Some time ago, after a long time just picking up one satellite, now does not get any.
Is there any tool or application to test the hardware?
Thanks.
rom do you use?
I noticed this with CM7.1.
The stock rom I tested was the latest 2.3.5 OTA.

Hi,
I tried this with the stock rom and did not work.
I tried with CM7.1 and still not show any satellite.
Sugestions?
Just for the record:
Radio - 27.14.04.28_M
Have the same issue
I like Cyanogen 7.1, but it seems that the gps doesn't work on DHD. Too bad, because it is a really good rom. I have radio 26.10.04.03_M. The same thing as described by others happen:
I turn on the gps, it start searching, and then it stops and the icon disappears even that the gps is still showed as being turned on
My case is different.
Worked for me several months without problems, and fast.
But stop working.
Someone?
I've tried modifying hardware (antenna), changing to stock rom, tried some different radios, editing gps.conf....
I do not know what else to do.
Anyone know some software to test the GPS hardware?
Have you tried changing the NTP servers?
Changing the NTP servers is part of the link spikey001 posted.
Have you tried flashing agps? I haven't got a thread to point you too but there is one in the DHD ROM section. There are about 6 different gps things you can flash, hopefully one of them will work.

You mention that your GPS used to work. Have you recently dropped your phone? It's possible that the GPS antenna contacts might not actually be making contact anymore (either through trauma or just plain old age)? If none of the SW fixes get your GPS working then perhaps you might actually have to do a HW mod?
See this thread for a HW fix: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1318892
Don't worry, it's not as scary as it looks!
Hi,
sounds like what mine did.
Tried software and even made the fysical contact better for the gps-module itself.
No luck.
The solution for me was to buy a new gps-module on ebay for 5-10 us$.
Worked like a charm.
Good luck!!
Thanks for all the help.

I've tried the agps reset/download and no luck.

The phone did not fall, just stopped working.
I've tried the HW fix but did not work, still no satellites.

I can not find the gps-module on Ebay, can you help me?
same issue after upgrading to...
same thing happened to me after upgrading to ICS rom and since am not using it that much, just ignored it and wait for the devs to fix it...now waiting for the wifi fix of blackout ICS
hi i have been flashing a lot of roms and kernels and now ive found out (at the point that i needed it) that my gps doesnt work.
No satellites, no nothing. I tried GPS test aps but they dont seem to work.
Does anyone know where the gps is located? Might it be broken because i dropped it?
Everything else is still working fine.

I've looked around the thread but haven't found a solution (haven't really seen the same problem either). I'm on cm10.1 nightlies and having issues with the GPS. When I have wifi enabled GPS works fast and accurately but when I'm just on data GPS doesn't seem to work at all: can't get location, searching for GPS indefinitely. Does anyone know of a solution, have a similar problem, etc? Thanks.
Hi,
I`m not allowed to comment on the dev thread so I`m doing it here...
I love slimroms and I`ve been using it since SlimBean is out there, thanks for everyone doing the hard work!
Since I updated to SlimKat, my GPS doesn`t work, no satellites reception at all. I tried to look for errors over adb and saw that the error is No XTRA servers available...
Just to confirm, I flushed few other CM roms and GPS is working perfectly in these, so the problem is in SlimKat only.
I saw few references in the dev thread but nobody said anything about possible solution.
Would be happy to go back to SlimKat once this problem solved.
Does anybody else have this problem? Any solution?
Thanks.
Any answers? Solution? Anyone?
Can anyone take a working GPS code from any of the other CM roms?
Still doesn't work on new build 2.4
see attached logs.
yeah, this is broken for me too. if i have data and wifi on i can still get a location fix though in the city, but not outside of the city.
GPS Location not working SGH T989 Slimkat
I am having the same issue on my T989, and am looking for a possible solution. I've enabled high accuracy and even enabled the wifi and what not. However, I still cannot get a location. I'm gonna have to switch to another ROM until the issue is resolved, but I don't really want to So if anyone from anywhere can help me fix this issue, It'd help out a lot...
i am having the same issue, can't patch agps too having status 0. it doesn't work when i try copying that files in /etc myself
GPS + Camera issue
Other than the GPS issue, what about camera? The camera does not work for me in Hangouts or Skype (SlimKat).
No camera and no GPS. Try carbon Rom 4.4.2 if you want those to work. Just as smooth.

Yeah there really is no point in these posts because even the developer has established that SlimKat has issues with T989 thus the reason there have been no further builds since 2/3. If people are still going to use it anyway then they accept the consequences of doing so. Not ripping anybody but these questions keep popping up all the time. Use another ROM if you want GPS & camera, there are no ifs, ands or buts about that.
My Robin was working just fine until a little over a week ago when these random but frequent wifi disconnects started happening. It seems to be a common issue with the phone. I'm not seeing any threads on here regarding the issue, however, so I'm wondering if a custom ROM will fix it. I've no experience with this sort of thing, so forgive me if it's a silly question.
I've never been on stock before, so I can't report on that. But as far as I can tell AOSPA is the only ROM I've had minor WIFI issues with. So assuming the stock rom has WIFI disconnection issues, yes a custom rom should fix it.

Im using HEBF Optimizer apk It seems to be helping me a little
Running my vpn apk helps too...
Thank you for the replies. I suppose I'll just have to try it and see.
