HELP! No GPS at all in CM11!

Somebody help! I am not kidding, this CM11 is tits on a stick, man! Awesome! Everything works, this is great, I did install Apex Pro Launcher, did not know you could make more desktops with Google Launcher, but nothing to customize?

Anyway, I just tried Maps in CM11 and turned on GPS. Nothing! A blue dot within blocks of where I am and it does not move at all when I drive! This Launcher gives you a stupid pointed oval indicator for GPS, the old one was a dot that blinked until lock. I have no idea if locked or what, but it does not work at all. I cannot have this, I depend on it. I am following your instructions now, just booted to SS, wiped dalvik and cache, will download GPS Status & Toolbox and see If I can get a lock.

OMG somebody please help. This is like ALL my Christmas presents turning into coal overnight. I am like sobbing. I need Help!:crying:

Hey, what do you do with this GPS Toolbox? It is just a big compass like thing with dots and a ton of numbers. How do I know if I got a lock or how many satellites? Okay, down to 20% battery, not good, been playing with it all day. I will get in the car and drive around to see if it locks on me or not. Oh this is a nightmare!

UPDATE:

...phew! Okay, that seemed to work. I wiped dalvik and cache, then rebooted, opened the GPS Toolkit, have NO idea of what to do with it, opened Maps and it showed accurately where I live. Went for a drive and the blue dot accurately followed me around the streets. GPS working now. Hope it stays that way.

This new Google Map stinks though. It shows a rather zoomed out view of your car. I like it zoomed in a little more so I can see small street names, etc., and if you pinch out to zoom out, the car just drives off the edge of the map. Touch the dot to follow car again and zoomed way out again. Is there no way to set zoom on map while using it? The old one had + and - icons to set the zoom level you like. This one really does not give a dam what I like. Cannot even save locations to contacts. Anybody know how to use this GPS Toolkit? My battery is almost gone but I have been playing all day. Did set jbx kernel to allow battery saving but some xframework makes you enable it, I did. But battery is not good so far. I guess I have to use Screen On to stop it from blanking out while using maps.

Oh. Happy New Year Everybody!

My experience has been that Wi-Fi advanced settings needs scanning always on. Even when no Wi-Fi is in range my GPS locks instantly. If I turn that setting off it shows me miles from my real location.

This has reversed in the past few nightlies. I do not have a clue why but that is the only thing that works for me.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] tydiamond11:
It seams u got it figured out by your self that is the best way to do it. Lol that is how all the great people of the world did things lol. About that gps app. I use it because it is more accurate on the compass part. It also is more accurate at showing you tour location than say maps if you want your coordinates.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Meneldur:
Here's the problem again.

Wiped all phone as suggested here. Installed CM11 with clean phone. Works nicely but phone hang is still present. Occurs randomly, I don't know how to reproduce it but the modem simply dies. Entering airplane mode and then exiting makes the hollow signal icon disappear. The only way out: reboot.

Using nightly 1229. This issue was present on CM10.2 and earlier CM11 nightlies.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] hakarune:
I had the same problem on my xt912 and gave instructions for fixing in my guide. Should be the same for xt910. It used to happen in 10.1 & 10.2 nightlies for me and again in this one. Each new version required the same fixes. I honestly don't know why, but after I fixed it once it didn't come back

---------- Post added at 03:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:58 AM ----------

For GPS toolbox the key things to look at are the satellite ratio (satellite locks/satellites found) & the error measurement (can turn to metric). (I have better results in the car though, life 15/18 or better)

GPS lock usually only takes 4s to 7s when I open GPS toolbox to test. You can also rest and download better GPS inf settings with the app via "tools."

As for GPS settings, see pics:

And my maps Navigation has a good zoom level for the default, can see Street names and upcoming streets easily...Same view when I'm driving too.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bl8demast3r:
For some reason whenever something is writing to the External SD card (For example Google Play Music with Xposed mods) it will unmount. Does anyone know the reason to this? Sometimes, I will also get External SD card errors in the notifications area and it wants me to reformat, after I restart it mounts again.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Meneldur:
Thanks, hakarune. I did what you said in your guide (boot to stock, wipe caches, go back to cm).

We'll see.

Meneldur @ XT910
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Oh you are "Da MAn"! Oh, I get it, look for error and fix/sat. Cool.

Hey man, where are you getting this "Advanced WiFi Menu"? I have looked all over the place and I don't have anything like that in my settings. ...never mind. I found it under wifi 3 dot menu.

Location, yeah I have that on.

The Navigation screen gives excellent zooming and directions. But sometimes I just turn on Maps to see where I am, where I am going, and like a closer zoom to find little streets that often do not show names on far zoom level. So in just plain maps, no way to watch the car move on the street at a higher zoom level? You can pinch it out for a closer zoom, but then map no longer tracks the car. Just have to live with it? Look at picture, this is what I am talking about. You don't ever drive around while looking at just the map? I do that a lot and the old Google Maps did allow a custom zoom with + - spots on screen to tap. You could also save your location such as a store to your contacts. All that stuff is gone now. This new Maps blows. There is even a newer one with lots of numbers below the map, but it would never accept the url to address when you tap address in contacts menu. Maybe this one is different, haven't tried yet. Okay, I will try it. Yeah, the wavy looking dark blue "Google Maps" choice cannot accept a URL to an address so I don't see what good it is unless you want to type in the address all the time. :p

​

Dude, my battery life bites. I know there are speed setttings and a LOT of things you can adjust in the JBX kernel I installed. While flashing it, I ran into this Aroma setup menu. It was nice. I choose memory, net speed, and battery life. But how do you change that stuff? I got something called Trickster in my app drawer, and on Google Play Store it shows many screens of adjustments you can make. But my Trickster is a single page, nothing to configure, and is basically useless unless you want to see what the kernel has been up to. There are no multiple screens. So I tried to install it from play store anyway, said incompatible with current version, remove version and reinstall. I tried update. Downloaded and failed install, incompatible version. I made a backup with Titanium, uninstalled it, tried to install it from play store, the good one, again, incompatible. WTF, this jbx kernel is supposed to be cool but if you cannot adjust it, what good is it? Ohhh, downloading from play store says it is not signed correctly. Maybe I could download the apk somewhere and install it anyway? This version blows, it don't do nothing!

Version installed: JBX-Kernel-2.0-Hybrid-4.4_2013-12-09.zip

Oh I found the menus in Trickster, never mind. Little grey bars top left. If you got tips for a Droid Razr Maxx I'd love to here them. Sorry to ***** about nothing. You are a good dude, thank you!

Do I have to flash a different version? Is that possible? Do you have a URL for it? This bites man. And the rest of it is SO freaking cool! Thank you and Happy New Year!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] vanwho:
I have had the same problem. I also tried this fix. I have a question though. Hopefully not a dumb question. Will I need to do this every time I flash a new nightly? Or will it be fixed as long as I'm on CM11?

Every time I reboot, I have to switch my Mobile Network from Global to CDMA+LETE/EVDO. Anybody have a clue how to make it stick through a reboot?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] tydiamond11:
That is the newest one sorry! lol dtrail has not made a new build yet. on trickster there is a button in the left hand corner just push that and you will get like 4 things in the menu that is where you change that stuff.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] vanwho:
I have the same issue. Usually it would hold the setting after a couple reboots, but not on this build.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] krestian:
Don't! (quite yet). Get your system stable first. ART is a new JIT compiler, just implemented with KK, that *might* introduce some performance improvement but has also been reported to fail for many, many apps, even in "official" (as in, Nexus official) KK builds.

So this is the last thing you want to mess with, once everything else is working, and on a per-app basis. Remember old-day HWA settings, for JB? pretty much same thing. Good luck!

The only issue I have is 3g, my house goes in and out of 4g depending on what room I'm in.

Anyone has WiFi tethering issues?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] seandop:
For those of us with the XT912: MMS works fine with the 11/22 build. LTE and WiFi work fine, as well. 2g/3g still do not work (with or without JBX 1.5). The APNs are stored correctly; the root issue concerning why 3g will not connect still remains.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] JakeDHS07:
My biggest gripe is that APN are grayed out in mobile networks due to a missing permission. Cannot restore stock apns either it fails also due to the missing permission.

It's a way to fully enable GSM on XT912 (i'm not from the US). http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2394689
[Motorola Droid RAZR] RiggsDaRuler:
Yup.... It doesn't hold signal....
[Motorola Droid RAZR] shubham412302:
Art is android runtime.

It is ahead of time compiler and not jit.

I will compiler apps while installing so that apps will execute faster and it is in beta. You can expect art as default in future versions of android.

It will replace dalvik vm.

Installing apps will take time though.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] halifage:
Where do i activate/deactivate ART?

Wanna give it a try:)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] uan:
Downgrade to ss 3.11. Still having problem. Looks like i have to wait .zip file compatible with ss 3.65.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] shubham412302:
Enable developer options by tapping on build number in about phone and then in developer options select art in runtime setting and then reboot.

You will notice battery life improvements and also a small performance improvements.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] elspinat:
I'm on SS3.65. Install went smoothly.

Everything works very well, except for black pixels on screen rotation and the screenshot issue.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] JakeDHS07:
For me pixel tearing during rotation is gone on 11-22 build. I don't understand the screenshot issue since storage is now mounted but it says its in use. Strange. Hopefully official doesn't have that problem.

About Art, well, I used a slight performance realized, however got bugs in some apps like titanium backup for example.

About telephony signal, I am here in Brazil and solved to just erasing the system/app/CellBroadcastReceiver.apk.

It seems to usually keep, after a few nightlies I had to do it again; have had to do it 3 times now since 12.18 update.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] unwired:
The filesystem is corrupt, either because your SD card is dying or your phone crashed during fs writes. Remove SD card (or switch PC connection mode to "Mass storage"), mount it to your computer and do a filesystem check/repair. If this doesn't help backup your data as soon as possible and get a new card.

Still not getting notifications from Facebook Messenger.. Am I alone? Suggestions?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bl8demast3r:
I just bought this SD Card a few months ago though, I figured it was a problem with cyanogenmod so I never returned it. I also bought it on amazon and didn't want to go through the trouble of contacting the seller. I once lost all my data that was on it but i'm not sure if it was my fault that it got wiped. I've done an error check before and it didn't report any errors but it didn't fix anything.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Meneldur:
I bought a SanDisk class 10 microSD for my Asus tablet last year. It lasted one month before corrupting almost 40%. Still in RMA process...

It's not rare to see new cards blow up.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] tydiamond11:
For battery saving just let the jbx kernel settle in and just by doing only you get better battery life you could also change the CPU fru to 1000 from 1200 mhz also I like the row or the vr as the Io it is very fast the default cpu run time is the best ket somthing lol
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Majkus_:
The only Gapps that worked for me was Dhacker's gapps-kk-20131206-no_set_metadata.zip . Newer gives me an air raid of FC immediately after boot. I haven't tried any more as this works for me.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bl8demast3r:
I bought the same type... SanDisk Ultra 32 GB microSDHC Class 10 UHS-1 and it looks like i'm going to have to flush another $20 down the toilet. :(
[Motorola Droid RAZR] LumberjackZac:
Bought it too. it's been great. My old card stopped working while trying to boot android 2.3.5 on an htc touchpro. I was having to format multiple partitions in ext3/4 to install roms and somewhere along the lines the MBR on the SDcard corrupted. You could have a hardware problem but my sdcard was basically useless when this happened. Anyways, Hashcode recommended the HPtool for hard drive problems and it totally fixed it.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] tydiamond11:
That should also make it where you can use a 64gb card on the razr just by formating it to fat32 instead of exfat
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dfryer1193:
For anyone looking to use the external SD card consistently

After playing around some, I found a way to use the external SD card consistently. It swaps the internal and external SD cards.

All it takes is a quick build.prop edit.

Open /system/build.prop

Look for the section referring to vold (what android uses instead of fstab)

Stock should look like

#Vold switchability uncomment second line to swap
ro.vold.switchablepair=/storage/sdcard0,/storage/sdcard1
#persist.sys.vold.switchexternal=1

...uncomment the last line, save, and reboot. So far, my external has come up every time.​
[Motorola Droid RAZR] SimpTheChimp:
Yeah, I just experienced the same thing (somewhat)... tried to make a call, got black screen and then phone hung.

I'm on the 01/01 release. Will try the 'boot to stock, clear caches, boot back to CM' and see if that works.

Can you not use the fastboot cable to root with the USB debugging?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Mr-Glass:
I dont think so - I think its sole purpose is what you used it for.. (could be wrong) this is from team blackhat... "It should be stressed that this is a technician's tool and not a normal USB cable. ﻿You should not use it with anything but a Motorola phone -- preferably one that someone else has already used with the cable. You cannot charge your phone with this cable (the phone ignores it from a charging standpoint). You cannot use this cable to ADB into your phone, mount your phone's SD card as a volume on the host computer, etc. Your phone came with a normal USB cable for all that -- use it."

That sounds pretty dangerous. But if you feel confident I don't see why not. in Mass storage mode it should be unmounted from your phone and have no effect on the eMMC or your Internal storage but I wouldn't take the chance. I have a Sdcard to miniSD adaptor and I would use that.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Yeah, me too, on this build: cm-11-20131231-NIGHTLY-spyder.zip

I had another issue, the GPS did not work at all, so naturally, I freaked. I mean like, this is my phone. Not like "an extra one laying around" or anything like that. But hakarune really helped me, a LOT with this. Not really big deals. It mostly amounted to booting to recovery, wipe dalvik and cache. Wipe ONLY these things and reboot and the phone settles down and acts normally again. I had to do this like twice. First thing it fixed was the mobile network/preferred network type going back to global. Then when GPS would not lock, at all, (I am driving around in the car and the blue dot is just sitting there, in my area but not following the car.) hakarune's guide told me to reboot to recovery, wipe dalvik and cache, reboot and acquire satellite lock. Read it, he shows the app to download and show GOS status. I didn't understand it at first but he posted a screencap with circles around the error and fix/sats. Shows how many satellites are available and how many you have locked on to. The error shows how many feet away you could be, improves when driving in good locations.

The dialer would black screen on me and a couple other weird things, not much, this is really a good build. Wiping the dalvik can cache a couple times cleared it up. My only guess is that as the system "settles in", it is building a cache of commonly used apps and settings to make the phone faster. But as apps update, things change, and this cached information becomes inaccurate, so it must be cleared and rebuilds itself. Mine is really working good right now. If I run into snags, I know to delete those to caches and let the system rebuild. Good luck and Happy New Year bra!

Try just 'Global'
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Yeah really? The CPU can do 1200Mhz? You do this in Trickster? I am not sure where, did not change much in Trickster but on the General Settings. Look at screencap and tell me if this is cool. CPU Governor was set at "lazy". That sounds kind of useless, I hear Performance kicks ass but might eat battery. So ondemandx (X?) sounds like a better choice. Throttle up when necessary, drop down when not needed, yeah? What do you think Caleb?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Yeah, that is the right setting for the XT912 Razr US. Mine would default to global and show 3G. Speed test showed DL @ 1Mbps, pure crap. Changing to your settings brought it back up to 34Mbps on Verizon. No more "G", just LTE & bars, but the speed test does not lie, dude. That is the right setting for this phone.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] tydiamond11:
I use ktroonservitve I like the power balance. I also use vr or row as my io and I always up the cpu to the high one I said before.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jeff_roey:
I had a different experience. I'm also running a Maxx on VZW and see LTE in all the expected spots regardless of whether I select CDMA+LTE/EVDO or Global. Only difference for me is I can't send MMS when CDMA+LTE/EVDO is selected. Only Global. Running the 12.29 nightly and JBX.
