Fixed GPS lock

Running 10/09/2013 and so far so good.

On 10/04/2013 I had GPS lock issues, before installing 10/09 I flashed to stock and got a GPS lock. Everything seems to be locking quickly now.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Syprus21:
Running 10/09, everything looks great, gps locks. One issue I am having though is WiFi tether. When I try to turn it on, all it says is "error" and doesn't do anything.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
Never use it but much thanks for letting me know, have you tried any 3rd party tether apps? Curious if it's just the settings for it or the actual feature itself..
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Syprus21:
I'll give 3rd party ones a shot and report back. Thanks for everything you do spleef!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] asdf002:
I have same problem
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Apollos_eyes:
Everything is running super snappy for me with clean install of 1009 & nh kernel. However, this afternoon lost 3g and 4g connectivity. Phone is still showing prl and sprint network so I'm not sure it's an efs error. Mobile network state says "disconnected". Any ideas/suggestions?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] iamterence:
Turn on airplane mode then turn it off. Or, reboot. You should be fine
[Sprint LG Optimus G] prowlingfox:
Yeah apparently data only worked for me on the first boot -___- and GPS didn't lock for me at all. But I didn't get a lock on stock before flashing.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Apollos_eyes:
Thanks for the quick suggestion! I used that method for prior builds and it worked fine. Not for the 1009 build for some reason??

I think in going to revert back to a prior version to see if it is the ROM or I just borked my efs flashing. I'll report back.

---------- Post added at 05:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:27 PM ----------

I see new apns were added to the 1004 and 1009 builds. I wonder if this has anything to do with the data issues. I flashed from the 0930 build. I had zero GPS issues and did not perform the stock lock trick.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Dmaxx67:
No issues yet with mine dirty flashed over
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
seems like a few are saying that ...if you end up losing data for whatever reason ...dirty flash rom again and they have had success...so far as gps if you dont go get the lock prior it wont lock....now if you have lock prior to flashing should be np at all gps will be blazing fast...but if your gps is already borked you gotta get it fixed on stock first then the new gps will do its thing ...im really not sure whats cauusing all these data issues we all thought was an apn thing...well we got the newest apns...they are built through and through in the rom...but it still rears its head....granted remarkably i have not had it but one time and it went away fast for me.....but that was a few weeks ago...sure wish i /or someone could figure it out it is mind racking
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Dmaxx67:
Does everyone with data issues able to fox days by going back to stock?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Apollos_eyes:
Yep, did another clean flash of 1009 and data is working fine. The one thing I did today is toggle the signal button in the toggles notification bar. I wonder if it's not allowing the phone to toggle back to data once selected? I'll try and recreate it.

Thanks for your work on this. Loving this ROM. Just noticed fiops is available on nh kernel. Nice!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamaicamike:
Hey bro can you test WiFi tether for me it won't work after the great updates that's the website lol idk man works on stocks and later builds of the ROM weird thanks bro http://code.google.com/p/wifi-tether-treve-mod/downloads/detail?name=wifi_tether_v3_3-pre2.apk

---------- Post added at 02:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:27 PM ----------

Lol o yea what's the settings that work for you thanks again
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamesadalpiaz:
Really? I requested that in his kernel thread a couple of days ago. I flashed over nh's 9/29 kernel after flashing newest Carbon so I hadn't noticed the addition. Cool stuff. :)

All AOSP/CM based rom's have USB/WiFi Tethering built into the rom itself and from what I can see it works no problem on Spleef's Carbon.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
Lol... Yeah built from nh sources before he had released it on its own..... always a good thing to boot into the ROM see what's new then change... Never know what I'll slip in there
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dengar100:
Kernel Crash

Running 10/09, I was having some issues so I did a fresh flash last night. Everything seems to be running okay except I just had a kernel crash out of no where. Not sure what happened there.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
Mpdecision turned on? That's (IMO) number one crasher
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamaicamike:
Doesn't work dude it always worked the same way and its built in? Lol how do I do that
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamesadalpiaz:
System Settings > Under "Wireless & Networks" click "More..." > Tethering & Portable Hotspot > Toggle "Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot" and configure it with "Set up Wi-Fi Hotspot". ;)

Yeah I was having battery drain issues with his latest compiled kernel in his thread so I reflashed his 9/29 to be safe. I'll go ahead and re-dirty flash newest Carbon to get the new kernel. :)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] asdf002:
WiFi ap problems too shows"error" when I enable
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Sputnikk23:
Found the exact cause of my earlier wake lock/battery drain/deep sleep problem.

App called automatic call recorder
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dengar100:
Thanks. I turned mpdecision off last night and had another kernel crash today. Maybe because I used trickstermod to toggle mpdecision?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
Not sure I only use trickster but I don't play with many of the settings .. not really sure what's causing your crashes
[Sprint LG Optimus G] ERAUguy:
I've also been having mysterious battery drain issues with the latest carbon. Apparently the phone does go into deep sleep most of the time, but there's something that keeps chipping away at the battery. Mp FD decision is off, turned eco mode on to try and help save power.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Agimax:
My battery life seems pretty good with current nightly. I only have an issue with bluetooth skipping a lot. Changing governors helps some but still does it.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Dmaxx67:
I'll confirm latest build and no WiFi hotspot.

Battery life is great and ROM is running awesome
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamaicamike:
Something carbon now idk but not acting as its usual battery loving tethering self
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
Maybe is all the extra stuff am doing linaro custom kernel custom device and common repos... I'll try next week and build vanilla see if it changes anything
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dengar100:
I'm having the same issue.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] prowlingfox:
So you can get GPS to work by getting a lock on stock before flashing....but as for data.....I had data on the initial boot, then connected to wifi, then turned off wifi and rebooted, no data. won't connect. >_<
[Sprint LG Optimus G] SlimMan:
Try toggling airplane mode on and then back off, if that doesn't fix it you may need to recover your EFS.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Apollos_eyes:
I had the same issue a couple of days back. Spleef suggested a dirty flash of the ROM will fix data. I did a clean install and now data is working. I think it's a product of the ROM. I also remember an earlier post indicating loss of data after rebooting. I don't believe it is an efs issue if simply reflashing the ROM is fixing it. To verify, you can check "about phone" to see if you have a valid prl, service state, ect. If those aren't available it's truly an efs bork :(
[Sprint LG Optimus G] latrotoxin1986:
Alright, taking the dive back into AOSP, see if I can resolve these data issues. [MENTION=1880287]spleef[/MENTION], just to verify, if I want to use _epic's camera mod, I have to flash that myself correct? You don't add those on your end?

Edit: Hmmmm. So I flashed TWRP 2.6.3, made a backup of stock, then flashed Carbon and Gapps, got it all setup but I need to sync my calendar from stock...my stock backup has disappeared. What to do, what to do...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
Yeah it's not in there... Was looking at cm and three days ago they changed their apns again will be building with them next updates hopefully it works
[Sprint LG Optimus G] latrotoxin1986:
K, thanks. Check out my Edit:, I posted it after you replied. I haven't had this happen before...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] SlimMan:
mnt/shell/emulated/0/twrp doesn't have your backup?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] ERAUguy:
Urgh, phone did the "shut down while in pocket and drop 20% battery" thing again on the latest build. I think I'll reflash or something.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jjairal:
Could it be that you still have swipe to wake enabled?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] ERAUguy:
Yes! I noticed that feature when I first flashed, but I couldn't find where to access the controls for it.

EDIT: After the random shut down, the battery seems to be holding up better. It's actually leveled off more instead of steadily decreasing. Huh??
[Sprint LG Optimus G] askmeonemore:
mpdecision

I turned mpdecision off and rebooted but it turned itself back on. Is there a way to make it remember to stay off?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] PartimusPrime:
You use the set on boot feature?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] askmeonemore:
Set on boot is set to "notification"
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamesadalpiaz:
Make sure you check the "Enable" box in that list (and then press the checkmark). "Notification" is just to notify you that TM enabled your settings, you don't have to have that option on but it helps to know if something went wrong or not.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] askmeonemore:
Worked perfectly. Thanks:)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] PartimusPrime:
^

What he said :D like this...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamaicamike:
Best ROM spleef just no WiFi tether but perfect just no tethering which I need :(
[Sprint LG Optimus G] latrotoxin1986:
[MENTION=1880287]spleef[/MENTION], I am loving this ROM man. Has some really neat features: swipe to wake, hold lock button for Torch, just some really cool settings...I officially have a new favorite ROM. Super smooth, everything I need works, and data is working no problem. I'm wondering if all I needed to do was use the LG Flash Tool to flash the ZVC bin to resolve my data issues; they are resolved and that's all I've done.

Keep up the great work man!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] NightMare870:
I clean flashed the latest build and turned wifi on to set everything up but after I turned wifi off I couldn't pick up 3g/4g at all, even after rebooting and toggling airplane mode still nothing. I tried the latest dirty unicorns build too and the exact same issue happened,. Is anyone else experiencing this or is this a known issue as of late?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] latrotoxin1986:
Known issue. It's been dubbed "The Plague", some people have it, some don't. Here's what I'd try because it worked for me. Download the file found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2443185. Run the LG Flash Tool to flash the ZVC bin. You'll have to re-root and unlock after you flash ZVC. Then, come back here, download ROM and give it a whirl! Again, after I flashed the ZVC bin, my data problems are gone.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jjairal:
Check neighborhoodhackers thread on his kernel. It will show how to shut if off.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] NightMare870:
Alright thanks, I will try but I did try using the LG flash tool a few weeks ago and it kept saying something about the model number was different than my phone or something like that, I will post back later with my results thanks

Update: I didnt try the LG Flash Tool yet but i just did a clean flash of latest carbon again and this time i didnt turn on Wifi and i've had 3g/4g the entire time so far. So Wifi is messing with the 3g/4g Connectivity somehow (Atleast for me).
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jjairal:
Not sure if it's just me but has anyone had a problem using the speaker phone on this or any other cm or aosp based ROMs. I get some high pitch feedback that seems to be louder to whoever I am speaking to.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] shaneg79:
Does anyone know why video calling doesn't work correctly with android 4.3??
[Sprint LG Optimus G] asdf002:
I lose data maybe once a week or so. First, i do the airplane toggle/reboot (never works). If that doesnt work i go into recovery and wipe cache and fix permissions (works half the time). If none of those fix it I restore an older backup that I know has data that was working (100% fix rate).

Hope this helps
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Sputnikk23:
voicemail toggle should be at the top of your list my friend... 100% fix rate for me.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Agimax:
I was looking through the Carbon Git and noticed lots of changes had been made to Carbon, and this one looked like it could take care of the issue some are having with the connectivity issue:

https://github.com/CarbonDev/android_vendor_carbon/commit/24d9e1fe2e10d5dec5f125546bfdbab4f6d0203a

CarbonDev/android_vendor_carbon

vendor/cm: fix Sprint MMS apn being set as default

Sprint CDMA MMS APN was being incorrectly set as default and hipri,

causing LTE connectivity issues because it was prioritized over the

other APN entries for LTE and EHRPD.

Well let's hope it will be in the next update
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
Yeah it will be it's simply a matter of me working more than being home right now.. Sorry guys... I'll be off Saturday night and Sunday so will roll out as many updates as possible
[Sprint LG Optimus G] asdf002:
Hmm I seem to get data drop same place every day, but today my routine of restoring efs/restoring old backup, fixing permissions didn't work. Had to go back to an old liquid smooth backup.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamaicamike:
Yo I got everything working good just a bit of tinkering lol took me a week though but I got tethering working diff set up lol but it works love slide to wake!!! Transparent shade sick lol
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamesadalpiaz:
Been getting wakelocks a lot in the latest build. Has to do with Audio_out2 and 3... Drains my battery in as little as 7hrs. Disabling UI sounds completely seems to help a bit.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamaicamike:
Yup drains pretty gangsta
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Dmaxx67:
i feel like latest carbon is being built as we speak...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Dmaxx67:
well i guess my gut feeling was wrong...was hoping to wake up to a fresh carbon build. Oh well im just messing with ya spleef. Im thinking about building a desktop to help hammer out some carbon builds nightly if you are interested.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
Is actually building right now so you weren't too far off... Had some hardware qcom display-caf errors I couldn't get past but found the fix not too long ago and it's still going so few hours new carbon

uploading it now...goo servers are down so cant upload it there but the others should work just fine
[Sprint LG Optimus G] latrotoxin1986:
I'm getting a lot of,"Unfortunately, appnamehere has stopped working" with the 10-20 update. I've done a few clean flashes, fixed permissions a couple times, still getting a lot of FC's. Seems like the xda app is my main culprit, not wanting to allow me to post, but others have closed on me as well. I had another bug where I was unable to get my screen to come back on during a call to my voicemail where I needed to enter a number for action. Had to just hold the power button to kill the phone and then reboot.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamaicamike:
Install a earlier version like from September that works for any carbon rom and dirty install the new one the battery life is insane and the only thing missing is the slide to power on but that's it its perfect and spleef thank
[Sprint LG Optimus G] latrotoxin1986:
Why would I dirty flash instead of clean install? Lol. I clean installed since this latest release has a different kernel. I feel it's always better to do clean installs though regardless.

The battery life is indeed amazing. My FC issues have been improving, haven't had one since this morning. We'll ride her out, see if the ROM just needed to settle in.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
Probably settle in but I'm on carbon as well no FCS restored app and data using titanium (no system stuff if course) only issues I had was 0 data at first I had to restore efs my phone number and meid were blank... Restored efs and is slamming... Lol... this build is straight cm sources except for the apns and GPS no linaro or nh kernel...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] NightMare870:
I've been on 10/20 with no fcs or issues at all, but i was on the release before 10/20 and my data would drop after about two days so I hope that doesn't happen again. This rom is awesome and I like the new boot animation a lot better than the previous one
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
That would be our main man partimus prime... Had him cook us up something for carbon
[Sprint LG Optimus G] latrotoxin1986:
Yeah, new boot animation is sharp.

Things are running pretty smooth now. I absolutely love this ROM. It has replaced Liquid as my favorite. The lock screen Active Display options are wonderful. I love the simplicity of this thing along with all the options I need.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] PabloCruzIII:
So no linaro for this carbon?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
Nope.. Some were having issues and I was curious to see what was going on so I built vanilla... Lol,
[Sprint LG Optimus G] PabloCruzIII:
How about on your 1020 PAC?

How about your 1020 PAC?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] asdf002:
Power widget disappear?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
Yes my PACs are with nh kernel and linaro since PAC nightlies are already vanilla no need for me to build them vanilla as well...
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Sputnikk23:
I have two log cat questions:

1) getting a lot of the deep redirect failure warnings - those are still safe to ignore i assume?

2) a new one - lots of "qdhwcomposer - WARNING - excessive delay reading vsync" errors. any ideas there?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Dmaxx67:
Are you running nh 10/21 kernel sputnik???
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Sputnikk23:
yeah. i got it with both 10/20 and now 10/21
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Dmaxx67:
Flash back is 10/17 kernel and see what you get
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Sputnikk23:
trying now

---------- Post added at 10:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:44 AM ----------

Same thing. If not more often.

Not sure if it's kernel or rom related, but I'm a dirty flash to the latest carbon.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] latrotoxin1986:
Just caught a bug. I am using and LOVING the lockscreen Active Display. BUT when it pops up to let me know there's a text, if I select to respond to text, it takes me into the messaging app and pulls up the keyboard but nothing I type shows up. The words appear in the selection box but never appear in the text line. Can anyone confirm this? It's not a deal breaker, just puts the damper on a really neat feature.

EDIT: This doesn't ALWAYS happen by the way. It's been the case though all day today.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] ketanb81:
any data issue on the latest build? also is anyone having issues connecting when roaming, I get no signal when the phone is roaming. Switch to stock ROM and I was able to get signal when phone was roaming. any clue.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] latrotoxin1986:
Data seems to be working flawlessly for me. I'm not in an area where I ever kick to roaming so I can't help you there.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Sputnikk23:
data flawless for me as well. handoffs are quick...

i know active display came from the whole magnetic cover S4 thing... whats the use on our phone then? something I'm missing about active display?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] latrotoxin1986:
Turn it on and try it out, it's really neat! Say for example you have your phone sitting face up on your desk at work and someone sends you a text message. The center of the screen will come on with a notification, then you can touch the screen to either acknowledge the notification or clear the notification in which case it kills the screen again. If you ignore the notification popup, it only stays on the screen for around 5 seconds before automatically shutting the screen off. Also, and this is my favorite, it uses the proximity sensor. If I get a notification while my phones in my pocket, just pull my phone out, screen automatically comes on and I see my notification and I don't have to do anything. If I ignore it and put it back in my pocket to deal with later, it'll pop up the next time I take it out of my pocket.

Here's how you set it up:

Settings -> Carbon Fibers -> Lockscreen -> scroll to Active Display tab and turn it on. What I have checked are "Notification Text" and "Pocket Mode" and then I've set a few apps to be excluded like the Weather Channel app since it has a persistent notification. Note that if you enable "All Notifications", it ignores your excluded apps and will display them anyways.

I really suggest you give this a shot, I think you'll like it man. It's worth a try at the very least :)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamesadalpiaz:
Lol, Active Display was modeled after Active Notifications on the Moto X. But it's a pretty cool way of getting notifications. Quick and easy. Sometimes a little finicky though.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamaicamike:
I'm not saying dirty install is the way to go but it has fixed issues for plenty people buddy
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Greatness83:
i had the roaming issue with the cm 10.2 rom so i wanted to try this 1 to see if its still a problem...i'll report back later
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dengar100:
Running 10/20 all seemed well (super fast, gps lock, great battery life) but I just lost data. I think it was because I enabled juice defender. I restored and all is well again.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jjairal:
still having the speakerphone issue. anyone else not able to use speakerphone due to person on the other end getting high pitch feedback loop.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] NightMare870:
How long did you run 10/20 before you lost data? Because I've been on 10/20 for about a day and all is good but when I was on the previous build I lost data after about the second day of running it and nothing would restore it besides a clean flash again
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Sputnikk23:

[Sprint LG Optimus G] saramon:
Download mode? and reflash recovery?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] latrotoxin1986:
I think we already have something along those lines. If you go into settings and scroll down to the bottom, there's the tab marked "App Privacy". You can modify app permissions using that. Or is PDroid different? I thought it was simply a permission manager.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Sputnikk23:
yeah wasn't quite enough.

for now, i solved my problem with XPrivacy for the XPosed framework... theres a way to *ahem*.. fake android id, gsf, imei, serial, etc to individual apps.. after they.. have.. um *cough*.. hammered you for um.. perhaps.. some memory hacking to obtain free coins in a certain game. new id works around the hammer.

spleef, sorry to hear about your loss. although.. if its turning on but prompting you - aren't you just one step away from wiping it and flashing new recovery? not like the bootloader is password protected. can you take a screenshot? any error prompts?
