[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] showbizz:
I have the exactly same problem :(

I have a SM-G900F 16gig, non branded

I have for a long time used KitKat 4.4.2 (using Resurrection remix rom)

It worked perfectly with gps and all kinds of stuff...

Few days ago.. i tryed to update to lollipop using KIES, it wont allowed me.

Instead i downloaded the stock NEE - image and flashed with Odin 3.09

it was a perfect flash..

But my GPS is not catching any signals longer.

I have tryed several gps stats/settings from google play..

No resolution yet.

to day, i downloaded stock 4.4.2 (nordic NEE)

i flashed perfectly, but still no GPS

All files is downloaded from sammobile..

But there is something strange going on.

When i install stock rom 4.4.2 / 5.0 etc, and log into my google account, it ask me to download from backup

called SM-G900T (i dont have a device with that name)

As other asks about - Could a PIT file was a soulution ??
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lingowistico:
Have you checked and double checked that you allow google apps / services to use location?

Also this thing has happened to me when I had an S2 Skyrocket and like the other guy sometimes it worked and then I changed rom and it'd stop working and then I flash another rom and it's working...
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] showbizz:
Yes, i have double checked all location Settings and so on..

Im quite sure, that it has something to do with the first stock rom i flashed with Odin..

Is there a way to compare gps.cfg with my phone and a working s5.

Where is that file located, using root Explorer?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lingowistico:
I have no idea mate.. Maybe someone else will help you
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] showbizz:
The strange thing is my phone worked perfectly with the 4.4.2 , then i flashed the 5.0 update (from UK - VIR)

Maybe this file have killed/disabled my gps somehow..

After that, i have tryed several files , both stock and custom rom... also in 4.4.2 and 5.x

Nothing of the these images is working with gps...

very strange...
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lingowistico:
Yes, I've had the exact same thing happening to me, where GPS wasn't working for no reason or it would work but it would take 15 minutes to make a position lock. I never found out what was causing it, it just started working again for some reason..

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] showbizz:
im not quite sure which of these 2 roms, that created the GPS - lock down:

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trifenix:
i think it's a partition problem too , because when i try the first time to flash the original h3g italy rom for 5.0 i get the partition error...

try to install some note4 ported rom i forgot its name gps will work after that
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] showbizz:
I just found a solution :)

I went back to a stock rom 5.x , because i ned to get into service mode via the dialer..

so i created this guide:

First you need to use a stock rom 5.x , flashed with odin wipe to factory settings from recovery

1. Then use your dialer and enter *#0011#

2. Press the 3 dots and choose back

3. Press the 3 dots and press key input Q

4. Press the 3 dots and press key input 0000

Wait for a few seconds and the screen options will change

5. Now choose HW test

6. Choose [7] NV rebuild ALL

7. press on System & Protocol, GPS, IMS wait about 30 secs and the reboot

GPS should work now.

My worked perfectly But it is recommend to use GPS Status APP to reset and download AGPS data

I hope you can use this… it’s a part of another guide, but its modificated for Lollipop

Hands down the best solution I have ever had, thank you thank you so much. mods should make this sticky thread.

I flashed stock firmware, different roms, everything and my phone has knox tripped so I couldn't go for warranty. Your advice saved me everyting. thank you man.

All of sudden stopped getting location set by GPS and I thought it was maps but it wasn't and I followed your instruction and all is woking now.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sargos76:
Guys quick and simple, works for me.

To fix the GPS you have to flash stock samsung rom with baseband. When in stock rom open Google maps and switch GPS on. Once your location is fixed. Flash your rom and the GPS works

Hey guy's

I have the same problem

I had a cyanogen rom and I wanted to test the Galaxy project

After flashing this rom, the GPS will not fix (zero satelites)

I then returned to my backup Cm12.1 and still no gps

I followed your procedure by the service mode

- Flash stock rom 5.0 G900FXXU1BOJ1

- Go to dialer

- Enter *#0011#

- Press the 3 dots and choose back

- Press the 3 dots and press key input Q

- Press the 3 dots and press key input 0000

But nothing happens, I still have the main page of the service mode (waiting 5 minutes)

I tested the same manipulation on a Galaxy S4 (KitKat) and the new options appear

Could you help me please (no garanty Knox 0x1) :angel:

Edit :

After flashing a 4.4 ROM (	G900FXXU1ANJ1) the service mode work corectly and i have have fixed the GPS and it works

Thank you for your guide
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wingchundub:
Having same issue on my newly bought S5 900f, trying teh dial method above and nothing happens after "Press the 3 dots and press key input 0000"

Can you confirm if i flash 4.4.2 stock as it is currently on stock 5.0 BTU.

Once gps works, Can i then flash stock 5.0 in again and it will work? or is this simply a lollipop issue on all actual S5 models?

This is first S edition of sammy phones i've had this issue with as regard gps.

I always use fastergps and always hit sats within seconds.

I use tomtom just on gps alone and would to continue doing so on this S5.

Best wishes

Ok NOW WORKING PERFECTLY

here is what i did.

My S5 is BTU and had official stock rooted and gps simply would not lock at all.

Tried the dial code menu info and nothing, no other menu pop's up.

So i downloaded the FRANCE 4.4.2 as someone posted in thread as a link, installed it.

Rooted phone on the 4.4.2

Then went to the dial screen and followed tutorial, other menu appeared after the "0000".

Continued with tutorial and rebooted phone after 30 seconds.

I hate google maps as need's data or wifi i.e. to be spied on, so installed my trusty tomtom which only relies on GPS only.

(I did not install fastergps from google this time)

Started tomtom, clicked on GPS and whilst indoors, BAM a signal appeared within 5 seconds of turning on gps :)

I have been testing for 30 minutes along with bluetooth on at same time as i use bluetooth headphones whilst out biking.

Working perfectly.

So........this is where i thought nooooooooooooooo, Time to install official v5 stock back on phone.

Installed along with root and recovery, (I DID NOT DO A WIPE/FACTORY RESET AFTER ROM INSTALL)

GPS working perfectly on latest official firmware, WELL CHUFFED

Many thanks to uploader for this as it DOES work.

Best wishes
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riccardo03:
For me doesn't work :(

How did you install version 5.0?? And which?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wingchundub:
Learn how to install official firmware via ODIN.

You need to get official firmware for your model and country which in my case BTU for 900f in UK using google, once downloaded, install using odin.

Then learn to root and install cwm custom recovery also, then you can use custom roms.

I can say i have not had one issue with gps since my last post.

I am now running the Pheonix rom on mine now also

When I wanted to use it to take a picture, I used the shortcut button which is volume button down, I realize it didn't do anything so I tried double taping the screen to open.

I couldn't get to lock screen. I tried pressing the power button, nothing happens.

I have no clue what just happened.

I tried taking off the battery and let it rest awhile and I tried to put it back and power it on again.

Nothing.

Just blank screen.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hyperbo:
Hi,

I want to install Cyanogenmod on my Nexus S. To do this my bootloader needs to be unlocked which wipes the phone. Before I do that, I want to make a backup. For some apps I need root to do a proper backup and there's my problem. I followed half a dozen guides, but they either A) wipe the phone or B) somehow don't work for me. So now I hope you can help me.

My Phone: Nexus S (crespo, I9023XXKI1) with stock Android (4.1.2), no root (obviously)

What I've tried so far:

- Downloaded android-sdk (platform tools and usb drivers)

- Installed USB drivers

- "adb backup -f ... -apk ..." works fine for some apps, but for others the backup is incomplete

- "fastboot devices" works and lists my device

- "fastboot flash recovery ..." doesn't work (says it needs an unlocked bootloader)

- "fastboot oem unlock" will wipe the phone

What can I do to get root and make a proper backup before wiping my phone?

Heres a log of my last try:

Backing up contacts, pictures and other personal data can be done without root using just a simple file manager or mounting your device to your computer, but app data is another story, you are 99% guaranteed to lose it, minus apps like launchers that will make a backup file on the SD card.. I have searched myself for a good resolution, but there hasn't been one yet..
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hyperbo:
That's what I feared. Even Helium (formerly Carbon) from the ClockworkMod Team doesn't work. When I try to backup any apps it just says: "An error occured while perfoming your app backup. A log of the error has been sent to ClockworkMod. Click Backup to attempt to backup the remaining apps." However, the backup of (only) SMS works fine with Helium.

Is there anything else I could try?

dont worry bro

here are instructions on how to unlock your Google Nexus S with fast boot and the standard recovery mode.

1.Turn off the phone completely.

2.Now hold down the volume up and power button.

3.You should have now entered Standard Recovery Mode.

4.Connect your phone to your PC/Mac via USB

5.Open command prompt (CMD on Windows) or Terminal (For Mac OSX)

6.Enter ¡®fastboot devices¡¯ without quotes to check whether your phone is connected via USB

7.Type ¡®adb reboot bootloader¡¯

8.Type ¡®fastboot oem unlock¡¯

9.Use volume keys to select ¡®yes, unlock bootloader¡¯

10.Use power button to select option

11.Your new bootloader is unlocked.

NOTE: This unlock performs a factory reset on your Android phone.

You can backup all your data using Go backup app or some other 3rd party app.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hyperbo:
Thanks for your reply. I've already tried what you sugested (see my first post). Step 8 is the problem because it wipes the phone (as you have written). To solve this you suggested the app Go Backup. In the german version of the play store it says that in order to backup your application data, it needs root. This sends me back to square one :(

Nevertheless I've tried the app. It displays a warning when it starts, that my phone is unrooted. After the backup process it says that it could only backup the app, but not the data, which doesn't help me when doing a factory reset.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raakib Zargar:
