I'm inclined to think the same (ROM issue). On the stock (or at least Sense) ROMs I can get a lock within a few seconds. Is this your first time trying to use the GPS on this ROM? Maybe try to re-flash with full wipe (data, cache and Dalvik) or try a different AOSP ROM.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] uvuriel03:
Yeah, it is. I just finally got it rooted this weekend, so this morning was like my first full daily run with it. I'll probably just try a different ROM until then. Cyanogenmod isn't on the M8 yet, last I checked... I'll have to look into some alternative ROMs.

So much for being Google search suave. -__-

Thank you very much for your help. =)
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] uvuriel03:
I figured out why I didn't see CM11 for the M8--I was using their installation app and the M8 is not supported on it. You have to download the files from their actual website. =P

So, I just realized that this isn't even under the right thread as my phone is on Sprint, not AT&T. :silly: (Can I call upon a moderator to move this to the correct thread, perhaps?)

Hopefully you don't mind trying to help me out anyway. I flashed CM11 onto my phone... and got the same exact problem. I'm learning quite a lot quite fast on how to not brick my phone... =P
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
I'll report the thread to the mods to move to the proper device subforum.

Did you install the AICP and CM11 versions specific to the Sprint version? Or did those ROMs indicate that the Sprint version was supported? Reason being, the CDMA (Verizon and Sprint) versions of the M8 are actually different hardware from the other (GSM) versions. Flashing a ROM meant for the GSM versions can even

brick your phone

. Or at least be the cause of your GPS issues.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Sloth:
I would suggest you RUU and start fresh...you may have borked the partitions if AICP is not made for Sprint.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] uvuriel03:
CM11 was confirmed OK for Sprint, but I actually couldn't find anything definitive about AICP.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] uvuriel03:
Heheh, borked. Yeah you're probably right... But I'm not familiar with "RUU". Can you clarify what that is?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Magnum_Enforcer:
Click the second link in my sig and scroll down to the RUU section.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] uvuriel03:
Awesome, thanks for the direction. I shall do that and take it from there.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
Saw this mentioned by another user: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=55738371&postcount=12331

Seems that Verizon GPS files are needed to make that version's GPS work on ARHD. So maybe a similar issue exists for Sprint on the ROMs you tried?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] uvuriel03:
Entirely possible--I'll have to look into this tonight, since I can't do much about it at work. =)

Just so you know, Waze updated the other day ans ever since I get that same message "So no GPS reception" quite often on my daily 1.5 hour trips. Im on a Sense ROM 4.4.3
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] butterforce:
You are not alone and I don't think this is related to your ROM.

I had an M8 that I bought in May after the launch. LOVE it! Two weeks ago I belly-flopped it onto the street and cracked the screen. HTC replaced it for $19 (which is an awesome program by the way) and I opted to have them send me a replacement device as opposed to them fixing my screen and sending my original phone back. (It took longer honestly, so I chose replacement).

Got the like-new device and same GPS problems. I am S-OFF so I RUU'd the latest 4.4.3 build and back to 4.4.2 same problems as OP. In my jedi google skills I've come to the conclusion that a lot of the new M8 simply have shoddy internal build problems and internal hardware issues are likely the cause of the problem and not software, firmware, roms, stock, recovery, blah, I've done it all. It must be a hardware problem.

Granted reports are rampant on all carriers of this issue, many mistakenly blaming it on buggy 4.4.3 or 4.4.4 issues, and I say baloney! Hardware, shoddy internal construction.

P.S. HTC agreed to send me yet another replacement for free. Which only confirms my position above as they basically agreed to send me new phone the moment I described my problem. That's HTC by the way, not my carrier support, they were useless.

Please consider sticky this, I feel like many M8 owners internationally are tearing their hair out and expending huge amounts of psychological stress seeking a software solution that will never be successful...
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] uvuriel03:
Ooooookay! Wow, sorry for the way-longer-than-tonight response. Life got in the way and whatnot.

I set my phone back to stock, and lo and behold, my GPS works again.

Currently working on hunting down the stock GPS files to see if those might fix the issue.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] AcSilver:
So after a year and half with this phone, I thought about installing a better ROM.

I experience with these kind of things from the time I had the galaxy 1 and I changed tons of ROMs on that.

But the xperia seems a bit different with ROM changing.

What are some basic things I need to know, and where can I find the stock ROM (just in case)?

If this isn't the correct to forum for this post, please notify me.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Targunitoth:
ROM changing ist not very different from Samsung...

If your bootloader is unlocked and your CWM is working, then you can install all Roms as ZIP like on the Galaxy

Always make an Backup with CWM to be save and get back in case of errors, thereforce i didn't need a the stock ROM

Just have a look here on the last pages

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] AcSilver:
thanks! But what I meant is that with my sgs I didn't need to open the bootloader and install CWM since it was already there.

How do I unlock the bootloader and install CWM, should I root it first?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Targunitoth:
Just have a closer look to the link mentioned above.

I postet there a link to a Guide, how to flash a custom rom (including unlocking Bootloader)

and Mirhawk gave aditional tipps

Have you bought your sgs secondhand?

Because you have to install CWM one time on your sgs, too.

And it is a similar effort to flash sgs with odin then unlocking your bootloader on the xperia S
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] AcSilver:

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Milton_Mitnick:
Install ROM's in Xperia S is not difficult.​

You must have Rooted your phone and Install CWM (like the comment above)

I was like you when I decided flash ROMs.

I recommend you see if your bootloader is open or not (when you verificate it, you will see in the screen of your phone BOOTLOADER UNLOCK, and then YES or NO. bootloader is easy to open when you have YES, but when it's in not is a bit complicated)

To put the BOOTLOADER UNLOCK in YES,

first:

you have to have your phone free (your phone have to be available to use with others companies) in my case, for example, i dont have my phone free, but to liberate it with my company, give mea code and after that I introduce it and set free the phone. (after that you will allow to open BOOTLOADER)

Here in XDA have 2 types of ROMS, to LOCK and UNLOCK bootloader, I am using TrinityVengance RaptorXL by f(x)THaxxorX, before that I used, LeopardX 5.0 by savergigio

To flash ROMs you use ClockWorldMOd, its very easy, if you need more help tell me

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Xris Toro:
Got my HTC TyTN(Hermes-Titan) in China and was using it with great satisfaction for a couple of months. With great satisfaction when landed in Germany, I could still automatically get all my emails and cals without making any adjustment using GPRS and UMTS. Once landed in Spain with strong disapointment and then :mad: I have not been able to connect anymore in any of the networks available. Aparently :confused: I could not swith from the UMTS2100 to GSM1900(which is used in Spain). The HTC Technical support team there proposed to change the mother board :eek: ... may some one know an other way to solve the problem? May an update of ROM work?

Help, Help with China Mobile GPRS settings/Setup

Hi,

I have the Hermes (Softbank Hermes 200 bought in HK with latest QTek South Africa ROM on it - for WWE usage) but I can't seem to figure how to connect to local GPRS to use internet or get email, etc.

It's driving me nuts! :confused: I've tried many combos And I'm pretty computer literate too.

Evidently I have all the information I need, maybe, but I can't seem to get the settings right. I've scoured the web and read a couple of moderately useful (but not 100% applicable) posts on outlining the process but I still can't make it happen.

Is there anyone who has successfully set up their Hermes with the China Mobile GPRS settings? Please pass on your knowledge to me.

For background, I have a local Shanghai SIM chip with GPRS function enabled by the central China Mobile authorities, whoever they may be. I'm on a pay-as-you-go service.

The settings (as sent to me from China mobile) are supposed to be:

APN: cmwap

IP: 010.000.000.172

Port: 9201

Domain(?): http://wap.monternet.com

They said no PW or user needed, but some sites list "WAP" for both.

I understand there are also dial-up options but I've had no success either.

The closest I've come is to make the network appear to connect (a timer counts connection time) but when I try to pull up a webpage it doesn't load and says the connect was lost.

I also don't know which PAP/CHAP setting to use and my phone does not have a convenient "Network Wizard" app.

Thanks in advance for your kindness. And thank you to the moderators for this great site. I've learned a wealth of information about my phone and even upgraded the ROM.

Hi after viewing this thread on enable additional RF bands on Qcom baseband modems. I believe it can be done on the D850 maybe other variants. http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s5/general/how-to-add-rf-lte-frequency-bands-to-t2886059 Infact someone had done it on the LG G2 although the link is down from a japanese site, wanted to take a look.

When looking at the FCC doc [IMG="FCC for D850/D852/D852G"]http://www.eyeonmobility.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/fcc_lg_d852.jpg[/IMG]

However it would help if someone had a dump of the D852G that has Band 4 WCDMA 1700 enabled. Just to compare the differences at the addresses in mentioned in the article. I have dump of NV, Rogers D852 and Bell D852. However I require one from Videotron, they don't sell it locally unfortunately, since I'm not in Quebec. I believe just dumping the QCN through QPST would be enough. QXDM also works just going to the address and taking a screen shots or copy paste the values. Although there are other methods mentioned in the article. However PM me or edit the file and blank out the IMEI if you are going to post publicly.

Unlock any SCL23 even @ 5.0

Hey guys, I've been following every unlocking threads for the SCL23 but no one seems to have the answer how to unlock ALL VERSIONS of SCL23.

I actually had mine for a year now and just decided to unlock it now, I have it on Andoid 5.0 which if you may know *#*# codes doesnt work anymore.

If you do some research, you also can't unlock SCL23 with Baseband ending with BNG3. Even if you're able to do the *#*#9090# code and followed the unlock procedure, it will not work!

Work around is:

1. Downgrade with ODIN to Android 4.X firmware version BNJ1 for SCL23.

2. Do the *#*#9090# Hack. Try *#*#0011# if you 9090 doesnt work.

3. Upgrade to latest firmware via ODIN

4. Profit

P.S.

I downloaded SCL23 Android 5.0 via SAMFIRM

and SCL23 BNJ1 from android firmware websites.

Hope this helps coz i tried going to different websites like vietnam ones! Most of the guides to unlock SCL23 are in Japanese so here's the source for one: http://mobilersidea.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-45.html

After you downgraded to 4.2.2, check your baseband. Make sure it's AND1 or BNG3.

While on 4.2, do the unlock method *#0011# or*#9090#.

When you succesfully unlocked it, upgrade your phone to the latest firmware available using ODIN. In AP, put the official firmware, and on CP, place the BNG3 extracted baseband then flash it.

Once done, check your baseband in About Phone and see if it's BNG3 and not the baseband for android 5 like the COE7 and the COI2 because it will lock the sim again.

Do you have the baseband for the bng3 or do you know how to extract it? I forgot where i downloaded it, but i can teach you how to extract the baseband if you have the AND1 or BNG3 firmwares.

PS- I have the official aukddi COI2 update. I tried the Nightly CM13 marshmallow, it was great and superb but SMS and Data isnt working. Fingerprint scanner and the side charger isnt working too, so i went back the the official and just disabled bloatwares.

Go to this link & download 4.4.2 then follow this tutorial.

Make sure to use key input from the options & use capital letters where needed. All being well you will have everything working again.

Make sure not to use any download manager for the download link. File gets about 100kbps so it'll take a few hours but you will get it.

I did the above then rooted the phone & flashed correct TWRP version to it then flashed 5.0 Lollipop SpaceX rom here. Everything working good & no loss of service on reset or reboot. :D

[Galaxy S 5 General] lameventanas:
That sounds great! What's the advantage on that kernel you are using? Is it risky to replace the kernel?

By the way, I have 2 Samsung S5, one is Korean (unlocked) the other one Japanese (locked to AU but unlocked thanks to this guide).

On the Korean one I put a wireless charging receiver and it's awesome, but the Japanese one doesn't have the same contacts. It does have contacts on the side, and although I could find a special cradle to charge it, I would prefer a wireless receiver for this one too. I always wanted to use small cables to connect those leads to the wireless receiver, but I thought it was too risky. Has anybody done that?

Anyway, I bought another another phone and don't need 2 spare phones plus cradle, so if anyone is in Japan and interested, contact me. The cradle in particular was hard to find, so it's もったいない.
[Galaxy S 5 General] mkgrage:
First, you can use whole bunch of klte ROMs. Surely folllowed by kernel for kltekdi.

Second performance itself would be better and you can use latest android version on old machine.

1 thing that after I've unlocked and install TWRP, I cant use NFC anymore. All the feature of device work well, except this NFC. I've heard from 1 thread (I forgot which one) that if I unlocked its bootloader NFC would be broken. Did you hear that thing?
