Unstable display - LineageOS Questions & Answers

Apologies if I'm not asking this in the correct way or correct place.
I'm running the lineage 18.0 build dated 22/10 on a Samsung Galaxy S5 mobile phone.
Last month I installed Here WeGo maps app so I could use it as a Sat Nav and it initially worked OK when I trialled it. However when I tried to use it in earnest, I found that parts of the display are unstable and garbled. I have tried reinstalling it twice, but the problem remains. All the other apps on my phone work perfectly.
Has anyone any idea whether this is a fault in my phone, the Lineage OS or the Here WeGo App and if it is fixable?

Locations & Navigation not working

Anyone else still having problems with locations?
Facebook doesn't work properly (can't check in, no places found), weather doesn't (says 'Isle of Man') and neither does the navigation (says 'Navigation to your destination is not avaliable')
GPS works and syncs fine (now I did the spring trick), the stand alone locations app (latitude, locations & maps) work perfectly fine.
I've re-flashed, reinstalled, cleared cache, data. Even started from scratch and it's all the same.
Search brings up little or no results in with this problem and more importently no solutions for me specifically.
I've also found some pages on google that say the navigation (car panel premium) was merged into the google navigation. This is around the same time all mine packed up.
I'm using the most recent arhd with recommended radio. The phone is just not what it was this time last year, all social networking and locations/nav worked fine.
I'm sure there are more people with the same problem?
I think it's my network/location but a samsung phone with android works fine with nav and check in with same apn settings.
I used a program that let me force change my location and check in and navigation worked instantly.
Still doesn't explain why I can use latittude and the maps perfectly but then when I click navigate it says not avaliable.
Is there a way I can check what's going on or whats blocking this?
Hi,
I get exactly the same problem in the Isle of Man (although running a Galaxy Samsung Nexus).
I also have a friend with another android phone who also can't get navigation here either.
I think it only stopped working for us in December.
Hi Michael
Another Isle of Man user here. Haven't been able to use Navigation recently. I a can go to Maps and get directions to a destination. As soon as I switch to Navigation I get a message saying:
No routes found - Navigation to your destination is not possible.
Hadn't thought too much of it. I tend to mess around with various distros (currently running GalnetMUI 2.2.1) and it's not uncommon for something to be broken from one build to the next.
Nice (in a way) to know it's just me. The question remains .. who can fix it?

It's not ROM related.
I've flashed various back-ups including stock and friends phones are the same using stock and custom.
Could it be Google?

Hey guys another iom user. But I'm on sure just noticed this problem today. Anybody found a solution?
Nope, no solutions! Still looking
Something has been blocked.
I'll update if i find any work around.
I went on holiday and everything worked fine in England and Spain. It's just here.

[Q] GPS not working. I tried EVERYTHING!!!

Hello! I know this is a common thread, but i'm desperate!
My GPS is not locking at all, i left the phone for 10 to 20 minutes and i got nothing...
I'm using the CM10.1 MoDaCo ROM, but i tried so many ROMS, fixed configuration files, walkthroughs, etc, but none of them seem to work.
I'll list all the methods that i try so far.
1) Flash a fixed configuration file
2) Change the ROM: i tried with the stock 4.2.2, CM10, CM10.1 Nightlies, CM10.1 Experimental, MoDaCo CM10.1
3) Flash different radios. I live in Chile, so i tried UGLL1 and UGKL1
4) Clear data of Google Services Framework, restart, etc
5) Used FasterGPS to set my location in the right area
6) Used GPS Status to improve AGPS
7) Change the build.prop file
I tried every method and the combination of them, but nothing has worked for me so far....
The GPS is very important for me because i use it to track my rides with Strava, and since the GPS is not working, i cannot start the application...
I really need help...
I use a Galaxy Nexus Maguro without Wallet and live in Chile. I cannot tell exactly when the GPS started to fail, but at least in the stock 4.1.2 it was working perfect, so i guess it started failing when i updated to CM10 and then to CM10.1.....
Ok try this if you haven't.
In settings turn off all location. Reboot
Make sure location reporting is still off.
Clear data on Maps force stop maps
Reboot
Clear data on maps and force stop again
Enable location
Get gps lock with maps or easy gps.
Might not work but I have had your same problem and this fixed it .... good luck

Hi!
Thanks for your answer, but unfortunately i've already tried this method with no succeed. I tried again but it didn't work...
Thanks anyway, i'm going to try to roll back to stock 4.1 (because the GPS was working with that version)
and if it really works i'm going to upgrade to 4.2 to see if i can find the error...
If someone else can give me a solution i'll appreciate it!

Flash stock, just to make sure it isn't hardware related.

I already tried, but with Android 4.2.2 and it didn't work.
Before i flashed the 4.2.2 i was using stock 4.1 without problems, so i believe, and hope, that this is a software issue in the 4.2.2 update...
I'm going to try it now and i let you know.

My GPS got worse after upgrading to 4.2.2. Lock takes much longer and finds less satellites
- wore out your welcome
More info
Well, i returned to Stock Android 4.1.2 using Fastboot, but the GPS didn't work either... So i updated via OTA to 4.2.2 and the GPS didn't worked again...
But i noticed that the Nexus S belonging to my sister, wich uses CyanogenMod 10, is not working either!
So i have a doubt now: Is it possible that CyanogenMod could have ruined our GPSs? If i erased everything via fastboot, is it possible that some remains of CyanogenMod could still be breaking my GPS? Or are our GPSs, strangely, broken at the same time?!
Please Help!!!

If you've flashed the Google factory image, you have an active sim card with data connection, and gps does not work, then you have a hardware problem.

Out of my realm of expertise, but I imagine the sirf chipset is not user serviceable. Your best bet would be Samsung factory service. I'm sorry.
Well, after giving up on trying to solve my GPS problem, it fixed itself.... i know that sounds weird, but the only thing that i did was update the CM10.1 to the latest RC2 and the problem was fixed, at least partially. Now it can find some satellites and it takes like 100 seconds.
The Gnex GPS isn't the best one, so it behaves a little weird some times, but at least is fixed now...
I really don't know what could be the problem, because i tried with almost any Rom, officials and no-officials...
Finally, the CM10.1 RC2 fixed my problem, hope this could help someone else.
Enable wifi & mobile network location in settings
Should be some code in 4.2.2 that prevents you from getting AGPS data if you disable the said option.

The problem is fixed now, but i tried everything, from rolling back to 4.1 official to 4.2.2 official, CM9, CM10, CM10.1, AOKP, etc. So i really don't know what could be the problem. I also tried the solution that you told me, but that didn't work either.
Right now, with CM10.1 RC2 my GPS is working great and i'm able to use Strava again.
I've been having the same issue. I'm running a Stock Verizon Galaxy Nexus, on my third one now. I have tried everything from apps, to resets, to disconnecting the gps, and nothing seems to work. It just seems to take forever to get a GPS lock, sometimes I just have to reset it. Not sure the issue, and I can't seem to find anyone with answers either. IDK if anyone found anything??

Cold start gps can take up to 20 minutes outdoors with a clear view of the sky if you don't have current agps data. Thereafter, you should have quick starts for a day or two.
Is your data working properly? Do you have sync settings turned off?

My data is working just fine, I actually have great 4g where I'm at, and all my sync is turned on. I've never had GPS problems with any of my other phones. I had an EVO 3D, and it worked great, cold starts would take seconds to find GPS.

And you have certified that all the gps settings/permissions are turned on? Even in the Google settings app?
Since you are stock, it might be helpful for diagnosis to preform a factory reset.
Edit - I see on another thread that you have already performed a factory reset. Next step would be to flash the factory image and see if that helps.

Thanks, I'll have to look up and see how to do that without root and boot loader unlocked, this is my third Galaxy Nexus from Verizon, they keep replacing it and I keep having the same issue
And yes all setting have been turned on, kind of driving me nuts
I'm sorry for you. it must be very frustrating.
As far as flashing an official factory image, I think you can do it unlocked if you have adb set up. Or use a toolkit, unlock, flash factory, relock (or not, why not keep it unlocked?)

[Q] GPS Problems when using HSPA

Sorry if this has been posted before. I know there could be several GPS related threads around here but I have tried searching and haven't found one.
Since a week ago my Galaxy Nexus has been exhibiting some very weird behavior. GPS stops working once I get a data connection over HSPA. And by that, I mean GPS Status and Toolbox will begin saying GPS is disabled once I get a data connection. This doesn't seem to be a problem when I use WiFi (via pocket wifi or tethered to another phone) or when just using EDGE. Pretty inconvenient when using several GPS/map related apps like Google Maps and Ingress. But when using EDGE, WiFi, or airplane mode, I did notice that once I get a lock, it gets lost in a few seconds and searching for satellites lock again even if 4-8 satellites are detected.
I have tried reflashing the ROM (CM11 M9) and doing a factory reset. I've even tried reflashing radio firmware from the latest Android 4.3 factory image from last year, but still did not help. Same problem. I will try flashing Android 4.3 again this weekend to see if that helps, but am thinking it would not help as well.
Could it also be a hardware problem? Like a loose antenna or antenna cable inside?
Man, I have exactly the same problem here in my galaxy s2 AND my moto g DTV. This problem make me crazy. Im from Brasil and seems that only me have this problem. Can u solve the problem?

I'm having the same problem with my Galaxy Nexus.
I also thought it was the hardware and so i open the phone to check cables and antennas and everything was ok.
Now knowing that the hardware is ok what can be?
In my case the fix was to flash a later nightly build of cm11, and was fixed on cm11-m10. No other changes made. I think it may have something to do with gpsd, something got broken as it affected other devices as well.

I'll tell you the mistake I did:
I flashed one with toro (verizon) on my galaxy nexus GSM variant and after that the problem occurred.
I had to correct by doing the flash of a GPS fix for toro
(VZW_JDQ39_GPS + WIFI_DRIVERS). But as I said this is to toro and not GSM ...
Could you pass me the link of your fix? (I have not found)
Like I said, I just flashed the latest nightly build for cm11. I am currently using the latest nightly build of cm11 for maguro since I have the GSM version. You can get cm11 http://download.cyanogenmod.org. I did not anything else.

I understand but i have already installed (cm11) the latest and failed.
It could be something related to M10.
So I wanted exactly what you put. I found this:
cm-11-20140916-SNAPSHOT-M10-maguro.zip
was this?
I doubt m10 has anything specific that will fix your GPS issues it you can try. The latest snapshot and nightly build should have whatever it is that is on m10 since it is still working for me.
The other thing that I can think of that you may need to flash is the radio firmware from the last factory images of Android 4.3 stock for maguro. You may want to also try that, but that may or may not fix your GPS issue.

Can't uninstall any app

Hi,
I'm in possesion of a brand new Galaxy S4mini since about 3 weeks. The 2 first weeks everythin worked fine but then i observed that my phone is losing signal. I figured out that this happens when the phone try to switch to LTE signal. After that i have reset my phone to factory settings and configured the phone from the begining. I installed all the apps i always install and also had installed on my previous Galaxy S3 mini. LTE is working fine but i have another problem now.
I'm unable to remove any application. When i press on uninstall it is all the time "uninstalling" but nothing happens, the progres bar is just floating and floating. And cannot go back, the onlu option i have is go to HOME via the home button but the app is still installed. Throught Google Play i'm also unable to uninstall the app, same case, all the time the message "uninstalling". The applications have no Admin rights on the phone. I tried a factory reset many times and also wiped the phone. I also observed that my phone is rebooting sometimes by his own.
Edit: i am also unable to install any new app from the Play store. Same think like uninstalling. I click on Install and the progress bar is floating but nothing happens.
The phone is not rooted with stock Android 4.4.2
Have you any idea what can cause this issue and how to solve this? Could this be caused by an apllication installed on the device or could this be a software issue of Android?
If i have a valid warranty is this kind of issue clasifying for warrant?
Sorry for my english, i am from Poland.
Cheers
If you've tried wiping the phone and its still not uninstalling apps could be corrupt memory which is definitely covered by your warranty.
Some weird issues there. Also if it's rebooting by itself sounds like something is not right.
A 3 week old phone shouldn't do this. What Android version are you running?
Hi,
Thanks for your quick response. I have Android 4.4.2
Kernel 3.4.0-3173303
So yeah....i think i go on monday to an autorized Samsung service point and tell them whats happening and i hope this case will be clasified as warranty.
Maybe till then anyone else have other ideas what i can do i that case?
Thanks
All I can recommend is flashing the latest stock ROM for your device model and country code twice over using latest Odin. Maybe that will help. Else I think you've done everything you can. Your not using some weird app that could be messing with things?
Stand your ground with Samsung as every company I've had problems with has tried to blame me when clearly the device was faulty. But I always got what I wanted just stay strong and don't give up.
Best of luck.
Thx buddy, i have given the S4 mini a last chance. I switched back to my old S3 mini and wiped the S4mini on more time. I haven't installed any app so i will observe what happened. If nothing then i know that the issue is caused by an app. I will install my apps one by one, day by day and look whats happen.
Thank you, i will answer to this post hence i know whats going on.
Cheers

OnePlus 3 Problems with Car Bluetooth connection

Hi all,
Since the last few firmware versions (OS 4.02 and above) I´ve been experiencing some issues exclusively with the Bluetooth connection of my car (Jaguar XE). I couldn’t fixed the problem even with the last firmware version rolled out via OTA (4.1.0).
In the last two months the connection of my Jaguar has not been stable at all. Most of the times I am able to pair my phone with the car, upload my contacts and so. However, once I start to transfer music of Spotify via Bluetooth, it keeps failing the "multimedia audio" and the connection is interrupted the whole time. I also lose the connection with the “phone audio”. I seems that my phone disables both connections intermittently. My guess is that Android Nougat is a "control freak" of permissions and this leads to issues with some car stero units.
In the previous versions of the firmware (4.01 and below) I didn´t experienced such problem. In the past I did have perfect connection to play spotify in my car with my same Oneplus Unit. I am very confident that there is nothing wrong with my car stereo unit since the Bluetooth still working fine with my wife´s phone. I haven´t upgraded my Jaguar´s firmware lately…so that shouldn´t be the source of my problem.
Despite of all this, the Bluetooth of my Oneplus unit works perfectly fine with any other Bluetooth devices . In fact I am able to enjoy full connection playing music with my External Speaker (UE BOOM 2) and my Xiaomi roidmi 2s –used in my other car that lacks of Bluetooth technology -.
I´ve tried everything. A couple of days ago I even performed a factory reset using the last version of firmware (4.1.0). Of Course I reset system settings, wiped cache and all data (music, pics…etc)…but still experiencing the same issue. I am desperate.
Any instruction will be very much appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
Kind regards,
So there was another thread on these boards, cant find it for right now... but in my experience the problems were only present on OOS rom's.
Perhaps not the best solution, but have you tried a CAF or Lineage OS based rom? All my problems went away after I made the switch
Good luck

Thank you Gomezie, I´ve read all the threads but I dont seem to find the solution.
I stick to stock os. Never changed my stock rom.
The funny thing is that OP stated in its last changelog that they have fixed bluetooth problems....
Kind regards,
Hi, my one plus 3 has the same problem. Done all the required resets and clearing of cache and it still would randomly connect and disconnect. Problem only surface after the recent 4.1.0 update.
My kids phone and wife's phone all have no issues.
My op3 connects with all other Bluetooth devices without any problems.
Mine is a f-pace .
Same problem in Mazda 6
Hi, I've been experiencing similar problem in Mazda 6 after software update. Everything was working perfect in previous versions. I my case problem is with using Spotify. Phone connects to the headunit, just after engine starts with no isuess, but the music won't start to play. Only way to start playback is to disconnect the phone manually and reconnect every single time. Re-pairing the phone with car doesn't help.
I sent an email to customer service a couple days ago. i haven't got any reply yet. I will let you know.
Regards.

I finally did receive a reply from OP customer service: The only solution they offer me is trying a downgrade to OS Oxygen version 3.2.8. This is the link suggested by the technical agent to do so:
http://downloads.oneplus.net/oneplus-3/oneplus_3_oxygenos_3.2.8/
I haven´t done it yet since I am not eager to this idea.
On the other hand, in the meantime, OP rolled out new OTA 4.1.1. I made the upgrade to the latest firmware version. It seemed to work at first. However right now I am having the same problems with bluetooth disconnecting the whole time.
Any other experiences?? Have anyone solved this issue with new OTA???
Kind regards,
Bluetooth and 4.1.1
It's worse now on 4.1.1. definitely not the car, Samsung works ok
Hi,
I've experienced the same problems starting on OpenBeta 12 and continuing through to OOS 4.1.1. I've posted in the Open Beta 12 thread on the Oneplus forums, and have been contaced by Oneplus regarding the issue. For the Open Beta I have provided log files for them, but due to work and private life getting in the way have not been able to do the same for OOS 4.1.0 or OOS 4.1.1. Also, I did not clean flash, but dirty flash - because I'm really lazy and stuff. It needs too much time, to be honest
Maybe if everyone who has the problem here contacts the guys at OP or the OP forums, respectively, providing logs etc. the problem can be solved faster.
I did some googling around and found a few articles that hinted in the direction of Android 7.1.1 being the culprit, which would mean that Google needs to fix it. In these articles, it said Nexus devices, and a fix coming up...don't know...
Best regards,
Chris
My phone audio always works fine but the media audio on both my nissan and ford sync system works randomly or not at all on both stock and Lineage based roms. My wife's iPhone 6s works perfectly every time on both cars. Fortunately for me it's not a big deal since both cars have usb inputs and I keep all my music on thumb drives...My old Galaxy S6 Edge works fine on both cars too so I am not sure why the OP3 is so spotty.

Ask your question in the proper place. This is a thread regarding bluetooth connectivity.
