Bad english

Hello,

I didn't want to post this thread I just want to preview it for me.

My CM7-ROM isn't finished yet, I'm compiling...

But my AOSP (Android 2.3.7) ROM is more finshed than the CM7.

I'm very very sorry about my mistake.

MrBrubble

PS: I need some help for the AOSP ROM, maybe safariking or a other developer who has this device

can help me. Just pm me. Thanks! :highfive: ;)

Impressive thread, you have done pretty deep experimenting, currently gps is working great, but during my phone's GB, ICS era it would take a lot of time to lock, personally my solution was [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION] GPS Patch which was pretty rad it worked great for me.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GNUDroid:
a small update: rebooted sometimes and excluded the angry gps app. it also overwrites your custom gps.conf.

for now, it seems that either the modem, and/or the gpsboost app and/or the lib-patching and/or the gps.conf is responsible for the huge improve.

so `angry gps` is out this game.

I also find myself waiting 10 minutes for a fix. Most of the time I need to be in an open space to get any fixes at all.

Together with the closed source hml driver, I find this to be the only things that stop me from using this magnificent smartphone at full potential. I hope at least this issue gets fixed.

Good work so far. Thank you!

Hello. Is it possible to enable static navigation, because is it necesery for turistics navigation, or geocaching. Ofcourse that the device is Samsung Galaxy S2.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roxetak:
Yes, it could be true. When you use clasical car navigation. Samsung havn´t problem to find satelites. But I talking about gps navigation when you move speed under 5 km per hour. When you run or walk. You try find geocaches and so on. And you move only a few meters, step by step. GPS signal jumping, for example you are in a place, final destination and your device are still showing, that you have 20 or more meters to the end. This device you can´t use for turistic, geocaching. I am lazy root it. I am not sure that this problem rooting and installing Sirf Star IV Control application help, especially in ICS.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roxetak:
I find some solution. There is a problem only when you start car navigation. Like is Sygic, Igo etc. This sw disable static navigation. After that when you start geocaching, or turistic navi, gps signal jumping. When you start only geocaching, or turistic navi. Everything work correctly. It looks like applications changing some configuration file.

Some doubts

Hi there!

I live in Brazil (South America), and my gps.conf file is like this:

NTP_SERVER=north-america.pool.ntp.org

XTRA_SERVER_1=h t t p: // xtra1. gpsonextra. net/xtra. bin (spaces cause I´m new in the forum)

XTRA_SERVER_2=h t t p: // xtra2. gpsonextra. net/xtra. bin

XTRA_SERVER_3=h t t p: // xtra3. gpsonextra. net/xtra. bin

SUPL_HOST=supl.google.com

SUPL_PORT=7276

I believe I should chance the NTP_SERVER to =south-america. pool. ntp. org right?

My XTRA_SERVERs are different from yours also. Should I change them and leave as yours?

The other lines I don´t have in my file: should I write them as they are in yours too or there are some other differences between German (de?) and Brazil?

Thank you very much for the post and your help!

OK, I fixed the M's, tried many different modems, gps.conf, sirfgps.conf and gps.exynos4.so... and still nothing. It's so weird - I had just one satelite yesterday.

I'm on CM10.3 stable... is there a problem with that ROM? Is there any other files? aggh!

Would be great if someone with a working setup and Cyanogenmod could post their settings. Just setup a ssh server with sshdroid and:

cat /system/etc/gps.conf && cat /system/etc/sirfgps.conf && md5sum /system/lib/hw/gps.exynos4.so

Hardware fix - did not believe it but it works!

Hi All,

My syndromes were:

- GPS get signal lock after an hours or not at all,

- Loosing signal without any reason, just like that

- Totally unstable an unpredictable GPS behavior, one day working fine then not working for a weeeeeks

First I have tried any software solution:

- root my phone,

- gone through tones of GPS fix apps and ROMS, also tried solution provide on that thread

I my case it WAS BIG waste of time before that phone was returned to Samsung support couple of time what seem to make GPS even worse :/

The sad part is that every time they send it back to me in their report card I could see that GPS module is fine and running ok - unfortunately they were right (yep right) because GPS module itself was/is/ and for sure will be in a grate shape for many years from now.

Fix time from the first GPS problem occurrence YEAR and a HALF - why so long - because it was my warranty period which I still had. If I would know how easy it was (in my case) to fix it I wouldn't have wait even one day since that fatal date.

GET TO THE BOTTOM:

- first step - get yourself familiar how to disassemble your precious SGS2 there is a bunch of movies on youtube which will teach you how to do it.

- second step - you gonna need a really really small precise flat screwdriver. In the movie you can see how to remove back frame of your phone, under that frame you can see elastic pins (gold ones) which are connecting motherboard of you phone with the antennas which are build into the back frame . Keeping in mind that I am not real phone technician and I really wasn't that much interested what for those pins are. I assumed that one of them have to be for GPS antenna so I just slowly bend all of them slowly 90 degrees so that they where stood straight, to be sure that when I will close that back frame again, all of them will stick to it for good, and don't worry I can tell you that they are not so gentle as they look like, but any way remember that is is better to be careful the sorry:D

And thats it, this was when miracle have happened. I went outside turned on my phone and after a minute my phone was able to see 12 satellites, after another one signal was fixed and GPS was good to go.

I still use GPS Test or Android Test just to speed up things a little, but now instead of being frustrated about my phone all the time, I follow in love with it again. I even upgraded its battery to original samsung 2000mah with additional back cover what really is giving him some extra juice, so it could easily stand up for two days of regular use.

One more thing - if you noticed on you camera regular or irregular shady spots just buy a can of compressed air, unscrew your back frame again because you probably screwed it already and use it on you camera from every possible angle, believe me it will do the trick.

I hope it will help some of you,

Regards,

M.

Solved

It took me about a week of searching it find out how to fix the gps. Mine is now working so I thought I would share.

These are the things I did.

* Root your galaxy s2 (Google how to do it, there are lots of pages and videos. I had to try a few kernels before I found one that worked for me.)

* install "gps status" from play store.

* Turn off all screen locks - set to none.

* turn off phone

* turn on phone

* run gps status.

* turn lock screen back on.

This should now work. I also then downloaded "triangle away" it cost a few dollars from play store but worth it, and run the rest flash counter in "triangle away" now it looks like your phone has never been rooted and will still be under warranty.

Rooting the phone was the hardest part. One part you have to download a file strait to the phone so when you go in the special boot screen you have to go to install from sd card /downloads folder. I had to copy and past it to the download folder on the sd card cos it say the it has a internal sd card. So it's like it has 2 sd cards. So I made sure there was a copy in both.

Also I pretty sure the gps status compass is not pointing in the right direction. But my gps is now working.

Good luck.

I was having a weird issue on S2 with Neat Rom 6.3

Simple hardware GPS fix for SGS2 works!

Dear All

I had similar intermittent GPS problems with my SGS2 - My GPS would suddenly, without reason, lose all signal and after a while sync again. This got progressively worse until the GPS would not work at all.

After numerous attempts with software fixes, I found the post by keicamw. The fix worked perfectly.

In addition to bending the pins (can't remember if there were 4 or 6, but I had to look carefully to find them all), I cleaned them and the areas they made contact with, with an ear bud wetted with some contact cleaner. The GPS then worked for a few days and stopped again. I re-opened the phone and bent the pins a bit more. Since then, the GPS has been working perfectly for a month.

Thanks again!

WM
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] E:V:A:
I just want to confirm that the bending of the golden pins, fixes this issue!

If your GPS worked before and you didn't do any crazy firmware hacking, it should still work. The reason is that due to the age of these phones, the bending and oxidizing of those golden connector pins have removed its essential connection to the antennas which are embedded in the plastic casing. Thus fixing this, probably is also going to help with reception of Wifi and cellular networks as well.

The best video for seeing how to separate the plastic top and bottom is THIS ONE.

I charged my phone while stock JB ROM was activated, it charged to 50%, then switched to CM10.1 and the battery it showed was 6%! Most likely battery status was at that level when I last booted in CM. Today I observed the opposite scenario, charged the to 30% in CM and booted into stock ROM which showed 10% battery - this was the last battery status while I was in stock ROM. Anyone observed this type of issue? If yes, any solution? I am planning to charge it full in both ROM s and then lets see what happens :rolleyes:

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] zerofun21:
So I bought an AT&T HTC One outright. =)

I unlocked the bootloader.. and tried to flash the recovery several times with clockwork. I couldn't get it to take (maybe because the recovery's i found where not actually for AT&T ?? )... this scared me so I found the stock AT&T recovery on this forum.. flashed that to be safe.. then re-locked the phone.

My questions is this.. If i chicken out and stay away from rooting..will my phone function correctly with AT&T OTA updates.. and Is there a differences between unlocking the bootloader, and unlocking the phone in general (so that you can use a T-Mobile SIM). I dont want to exchange my phone.. but if that's what i need to do then i need to do it soon.

The phone seems to run perfectly.. i never loaded any custom Roms or anything. i should be all set right ? the only diff is the "relocked" note in the boot screen. is there any verification i can do to make sure im all set for OTA updates ?

Thanks for helping a noob out.
