Intermittent GPS since Rooting - Moto Z2 Play Questions & Answers

Not continually, but at least every couple days, I experience unstable / intermittent GPS, since rooting.
US, unlocked version, alternate TWRP, rooted with Magisk v14.0
Any ideas?
ETA, I don't know why, but I haven't experienced loss of GPS, lately.

[Q] No Service and Slow GPS

Before I begin I'd just like to say I've done a whole heap of searching both here at XDA and on google in general and I haven't found any answers for my issue.
I'm using a S-OFF'd GSM Desire running CM7.0.3 with CM7 HBOOT (not r2) and the latest radio (5.17.05.23). After I set everything up (Rooting, S-OFF, etc) it all worked fine with no issues at all for about 3-4 months. Within the last month something has changed, now it often has no service when left inactive and I can only restore service by turning aeroplane mode on and off or by restarting. Also the GPS is incredibly slow I suspect inaccurate by about 30-60m (I still need to double check the GPS inaccuracy though).
Does anyone have any ideas as to why these issues would pop up after 3-4 months with no changes and does anyone have any ideas how to fix them?
Thanks.

[Q] Losing Connectivity

Hi all, from what I've read this is a documented problem, but I haven't really found a satisfactory answer for it yet.
I live in a college town with various areas of bad receptions (such as buildings). When I lose connectivity in an area of bad reception, occasionally I will not regain reception once I move back into an area where I should. I then have to toggle Airplane mode to get reception again.
I also have a history of failing to receive texts from people sometimes, and it's starting to really annoy me.
I've flashed many roms, updated firmwares from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4, including bootloader, radio, and more, and it still happens. Has anyone else experienced this problem and managed to fix it, before I move to another phone as a last resort?

I have a similar problem as well. Radio drops out, need to restart my phone constantly. If I recycle the radio (turn airplane mode on/off), the phone locks up and reboots.
Having trouble finding ANY guidance on firmware for this issue :/
More info needs to be posted like current rom/firmware, past roms/flashes or processes used , custom or stock recovery. All this will help others help you.

Found this post, seems to be what I was looking for: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=59443804&postcount=158
For background, I'm running the latest Dirty Unicorns 5.0.2 release. Went to that from 5.0.2 GPE official. Device version is TMO M919.
What modem are you currently on?
You can flash the latest nk2 modem using Odin and try it out , if that doesn't work you can try NH7.

[Q] Stock LP Wifi connection

So I have a rather strange problem, and have found no help in other threads, so I'll start on here. I have the white G3 on T-mo (obviously) and have been trying to upgrade it to LP. I have tried both Autoprime's stock ROM as well as the stock ROM posted today extracted from the KDZ. Both were flashed through TWRP and have the exact same problem. Any time the wifi gets shut off for any reason, whether to send an MMS or because I leave the house, when it turns back on, it will not route to the internet. I can access anything on the local network, but somehow the route to the modem and the world at large is just gone, and will not come back with anything short of a reboot. I have also noticed that after a few hours of relative stability, the wifi will just randomly stop working. One other aside that may or may not be related, people have been complaining of text messages being sent 10 to 15 times when using the wifi calling since upgrading. Honestly, I'm pretty tech savvy and have followed all the flashing instructions, but am at a complete loss here. I am sure the problem is with my phone, since the identical symptoms have occurred with 2 ROMs now, both were clean flashes. Does anyone have any insight to this issue at all?
My girl has this same issue on her G3 but hers was updated through the OTA. Its running stock ROM, rooted & stock recovery and after updating to lollipop, she's having WiFi issues and battery issues and other stuff like freezing & stuff.

So, obviously there is no idea among the community regarding what is causing these wifi issues. However, T-Mo has pulled the 20b update for unannounced reasons, but stating that they seek to provide the best software experience. There are obviously multiple issues with the update, from battery to wifi calling, etc. I'm just going to assume that the wifi issues I am experiencing are part of the issues that got the update pulled. Short version: if you are wanting to use wifi calling and keep the phone as stock as possible, stay on KK for a while.

WIFI/Data Connection handoff issue

Hopefully I word this right so i can clearly describe my issue. About a week ago I had a glitch with a custom ROM (I am rooted and S-OFF). Before the glitch I had zero issues, data worked created, WIFI worked great, handoff between the two seemed flawless. This is where i am at now.
After taking an absurdly long time to actually be able to wipe and reload a ROM, the issue started. Run just WIFI, no problem, run just Mobile Data no problem, but once I connect to a WIFI ( have tried several WIFI connections and hotspots) this occurs. Approximately everry 5-10 minutes you can see the data connection momentarily drop then reconnect, giving me 3 notification sounds. Annoying to say the least. Doesn't affect the performance of the device but you can see how annoying that would be. I'm gone through all of the settings I can think of in Dev and in settings and can't figure out why it keeps doing this. I was originally told to try a radio but data is perfect if no WIFI present on the device so I would rather not flash and wipe if I can help it.. I know the simple fix would be to disable mobile data at home but that doesn't cut it I would like it to be on as it normally would be. AS a note I have tried full wipes and several ROMS they all present the same issue.
If anyone understands and can help, and you need a logcat I will gladly provide one.

Constant Wifi Disconnects - Will a Custom ROM Fix This?

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.
