Phone stock no root, bootloader still lock
Happened to me too. You can use GPS Test app to clear and update the agps. After that it locks. Or I've tried not even bothering with it and it got fixed by itself.

Guys some of you have a lot of expertise after read a lot here can't found the solution for my gps not locking...The phone is rooted.. And CWM installed.
My android version is 4.1.1 kernel 3.031-215287...Any help is more that welcome.
Most of the issue is related with the GPS when open maps start blinking or navigation...

Silly question but is the GPS turned on? Mine gets a lock in about 3 - 5 seconds. It also locks in my apt, my old infuse would never lock in my apt.
I'm running cleanrom 3.5, and with gps on I sometimes have to reboot to get a fix, even after using something like gps test to update the agps records. But after a reboot, fixes are nearly instantaneous.

I would love to help you, but help yourself first: ask a better question

Thanks, gps is on there is a way to reload the files that manage the GPS ? I use couple applications like gps status and gps test but they can't lock the satelites...The gps sign is blinking.

I have similar problems on stock, unrooted Bell ROM. Occasionally when I open an app which uses the GPS it won't lock and the GPS icon won't appear on the left of the notification area (flashing or solid). I always leave GPS on all the time. Restarting the phone always solves the problem.

Thanks already remove the battery, turn off the battery and issue continue....
I'm having pretty much the same problem. Most of the time GPS just doesn't work. Weird thing is that it used to be fine. Sometimes a restart will get it working: sometimes it won't and it doesn't stay working for long if it does.
Right now I'm in Raleigh, NC, which is pretty much the center of the state and the weather widget thinks I'm out by the Tennessee border.
I'm used to having to clear that widget's data to make it forget a location and learn a new one if I'm travelling, but now that doesn't work.
Maps doesn't work well because it's using tower data to figure out a very rough location.
I have not tried using one of the GPS fix downloads yet because, quite frankly, the permissions they want pretty much freak me out. Take pictures? Make calls? What's up with that?
Anyone have any experience successfully resolving this problem?
I cant get a GPS lock with google maps unless I reboot my phone, I am on 4.1.2 official ROM ( non rooted ) GPS test shows an accuracy of 10-13feet with several sattelite locks, has anyone experienced the same problem?
Anyone? could this be a hardware defect?
I'm having the same thing. My GPS used to work perfectly until a couple weeks ago, and now I have to reboot otherwise it will not lock.
It says location set by GPS, but it isn't actually set, it's so weird, it's like it gives up looking. Anybody know how to fix this?

I've found this to be Google maps. Mapquest and waze can use the GPS just fine and lock on in seconds.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
Hi using CM10 latest version of Lior with HELLBOY latest kernel when using iGO (Navigation program or any other navigation program) GPS is unable to lock and try acquire lock forever (with no success). any information on this issue, is it known issue for that Kernel or ROM.
I had the same problem with a rom, don't remember which one. Are you using the toggles? If yes, go to settings and disable it from there
GPS Problem
The issue is that i cannot navigate since the GPS never locks but no problem to disable it from Toggles or menu.
Oh I misunderstood. You can try maxwen's cm10 and see if it works
Hello,
can you use GPS after a reboot and activated over the Systemmenu?
If yes, then let gps always turned on, or switch it on before you use a 3rd-party app. And let the 3rd-party app don`t turn off GPS, then the GPS driver chrashes again and you must reboot!
Its not a oneV problem, it affects most cm10 Roms on any devices.
Will test that in about an hour and report back,
Thank you for your answer
GPS Lock not acquired
After reboot if GPS is on it will acquire lock after restarted.
does this issue has any solution since CM10 is far better then the original ROM ?.
The only solution, let GPS always "on". If it is not in use by an app, it still consumes no power.

Anyone?
Dowload a program like GPS test from the play store and see if you can tell more about the problem. Any sats showing at all? Etc.
Certainly it is not a normal problem, normally it locks in seconds.
Wellllll i downloaded this app "GPS status" and i think it fixed my GPS nice !!! :good:
mine has the same problem with GPS. The issue occurs randomly. I have tried using some GPS test apps and they showed some satellites over my location but my ZL didn't get any signal from them, that's why ZL couldn't lock my location
Other times I tried again and it worked like nothing had happened. This issue happened before the 4.2 update, so I guess the update doesn't solve any thing regarding GPS issue
My ZL work a bit better when im outside my house. and when i get inside the accuracy really sucks........

yeah, we all know that it works best outside rather than inside. However, my ZL has problem with GPS even when I stand outside.
Today I ran the GPS test app while driving from work to home, it didn't lock my location, even once. It was frustrating for me
Well I also have GPS locking issues... It simply refuses to lock on to sats.. I used GPS status but it didn't solved the problem either. It shows abt 20 sats but the accuracy sucks Sky high...
But i got a solution... If I restart the phone then it locks real quick...
Hit thanks if I helped u
yehh I normally use Waze when driving... but on this ZL it seems not to lock my location :S........ is this hardware or software since many are having this issue :/
marks feresu
I have tried reboot, re-install the firmware but it just doesn't work for me.
I sent it to Sony once and when i got back, I was so happy that it worked instantly but it only lasted in few days and the issue occurs again till now.
I'm not sure if it is a problem of hardware or software either
Ever since the transition from kk to lp, I've been struck on my GPS never locking on properly. Even tho the rom says it works, it hasn't for me. What have any of my other brothers and sisters with a note 2 done to fix this problem?
People read this and can't seem to respond. Hmmmm
Great community
Same problem here... GPS dead even after going back to 4.4. Did you fix this?

same thing here, GPS won't lock, I even unrooted and went back to stock and it's still not working for me after installing custom roms.

It actually fixed itself for me. I have no idea how this happened but after ca. 2 weeks without GPS it started working.
It's not working reliably, though: I used to be able to get a fix every time i turned on my Note, now sometimes I don't get fix for hours. On other times, the fix happens immediately.
For me, i find a this way helps, not sure why it suddenly become like that :
- reboot phone
- after rebooted, turn off location first
-run "gps test" app with location off
-turn on location and let gps test do is thing to get 3d fix
-once you can get 3d fix on location, exit the apps and you can start using Google map, Waze or any by other gps apps
-as long as you dun turn off location after this, the GPS lock should work
-repeat step 1 if gps lock is not working again
Hope this helps, it's not a permanent fix... hope someone can come up with a permanent one.
