Any idea as to how to fix GPS ?

Is there ANY ETA on when something that important will be fixed in Cyanogenmod ?

I have tried to search in this thread for solutions but search is broken and all I get is:

"An error occurred while performing a Searchlight query:

connection to 10.0.100.17:9312 failed (errno=111, msg=Connection refused)

If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator."
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stephendt0:
Rule #1. Do not ask for ETAs.

Rule #2. Post a Logcat or be ignored.

Yes, search is broken right now. It's annoying, but you'll have to be patient.

FYI GPS works fine on my i9505 and i9507 on the latest ROM. Make sure you are using a recent (Android 5.0.x) baseband and do a clean flash (including a full wipe of system) and then try a GPS test app on "High accuracy" outside somewhere.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Redzo:
Did a clean fresh install including full wipe before just as recommended in first post in this thread. Tried high accuracy still no luck.

Is there any info on how do I get recent baseband ? I don't need hand holding just point me in right direction thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stephendt0:
Use Sammobile.com to find the latest 5.0.x ROM for your variant and carrier. Then either use Google to find the i9505 Modem thread, and download the appropriate modem, or if it's not available there, download the stock ROM and extract the modem.bin file for your device. Once you have your modem, flash it via Odin as "phone". If it doesn't seem to flash, uncheck the auto-reboot option, pull the battery and flash it again. I have the XXUHOE1 modem on my i9505 and that works well for me.

Saying that, if none of that works, do a flash of the stock ROM and see what you get there.

If you still can't get GPS, it's most likely a physical defect in your GPS antenna.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Redzo:
Will try your advice. Thanks for taking time to help. Can add that I have rooted stock rom image and GPS works flawlessly there. Current baseband is XXUHOD7.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Kippy51:
I'am on XXOHOL2 and get a gps fix indoors in 3 seconds. My rom at the moment is SlimSaber 5.1.1
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Redzo:
Do you know from which stock rom that baseband comes from ? Or do you have any idea where I could find it ?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Kippy51:
Sorry, it has to be XXUHOJ2 of course; problems typing on a small screen and typing too fast .... :o

All my modems and bootloaders come from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2192025 There are even newer ones than this one, J4, K1. But I've read that it doesn't matter much which one you have.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Redzo:
Thanks a lot but I have flashed I9505XXUGNG2 and now it works like a charm :good:

Once again thanks to you and stephendt0 for taking time. :good:

EDIT: Without even knowing I did download working baseband from that page you provided link to.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Kippy51:
Just glad you got it sorted!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stephendt0:
Wait, have you tried ROM Toolbox and updating AGPS Data? You may need to be patient. It took one of my S4s around a minute to lock on, but once it did it once it locked on consistently from then on.

Flashed build 20151130 to my bf's i9505, no issues to report yet. Bluetooth, audio playback, music player, proximity sensor, all is working great on my end (so far). Only question I would like to ask is how to get Xposed working. I know it's not supported here, but I figure someone has most likely gotten it running on their device. I'm following a method on XDA that says it doesn't require messing with jar files, and some people seemed to have success, but no luck on my end. I installed the Xposed apk version 3.0, then attempted to flash the zip, but came up with an error that says:

E: Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard/Download/xposed-sdk21-arm-20150430-arter97.zip'

and

Wrong SDK version: 22, expected 21-21

Please download the correct package for your platform/ROM!

I asked for help on their post, but it seems like no one is getting answers there anymore. :/ If anyone here has gotten it running, I'd really appreciate if you would share the method you used to do so! I'm more adventurous on my own devices, but this phone is my boyfriend's and I don't think he'd appreciate me messing it up. ?

Have been on SlimSaber 5.1.1 since november or so (when updates stopped of Optimized) and wanted to install 1701 update. Using TWRP, installation went without problems; installed OpenGapps Pico of 1701. Also 'successfull'. But the phone won't boot at all! Just kept rebooting into recovery. Wiped everything again (factory reset AND wiped cache, dalvic, data and system). So only internal and external storage and preload not wiped. Install again 'successfull', but again just rebooting into recovery. No errors, no red warnings or anything. So reïnstalled my nandroid of SlimSaber. Anyone any clue or same issue?? Don't have logs because it won't boot.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] side:
Hello.! :)

Check those clues:

1-what device do u use ? 9505?

2-fully wiped ?if no try fully wipe everything and install only the rom..let it boot and if boot successfully try install gapps

3-please keep in mind that,while booting ,device MUST NOT be connected to any kind of charge (usb to pc ,or charger)

4-by fully wipe ,please wipe internal too

Give us some feedback :)

what about whatsapp audio messages?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ako673de:
Yeah, sounds strange indeed, but I double-checked that the BT issues are completely gone with bootloader+modem UHOJ2 and completely exist with UHOE1! But don't ask me why...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Kippy51:
Thanx for your reply! Yes, 9505 International. Like I said, not internal, sd-card and preload. Not connected to pc or charger. Without gapps it won't boot either. I think my TWRP version is 2.8.7.1; could that be a problem also?

I'll try again later on and report back.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] FernBch:
One other thing to check would be to verify the md5 of the download.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] ako673de:
Unresponsive lock screen

I just found out about another bug:

Once in a while when trying to unlock the device it didn't respond to any touchscreen actions. Once in another (more rare) while the screen even stayed black. In both situations only a "forced Off" was able to bring the device back to life.

Took me more than 2 months to narrow it down to the root cause because it really just happened once in a while.

It's a conjunction of 3 effects that cause this bug:

1) Incoming notification

2) only from certain apps (affected apps are (e.g.) Skype and FritzAppFon, not affected are (e.g.) Gmail and WhatsApp)

3) only if the option "Inactivity display" (under "display & LED" settings) is set!

You can anticipate the faulty behavior if you watch what happens to the display when a notification comes in and the display is off: It will go on, after 5s off, after 1s on, after 5s off, after 20s on, after 5s off, after 10s on, after 5s off, and then will stay off forever. That for sure is not exactly what this option is supposed to do. You would rather expect "on, and then after 5s off forever", wouldn't you?

The solution is simple: Just clear that option. I just thought it would be a nice feature, but the LEDs, if configured correctly, should be good enough for the purpose.

Hope that helps somebody out there...

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] LimitsX:
So far this rom looks great! I have one question, can I install ViPER4Android and remove AudioFX?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] FernBch:
Make a nandroid first then install V4A. I would freeze audiofx with something like TiBu instead of removing it. That way if it causes problems you can easily restore it.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Kippy51:
Forgot to mention that! I always check md5, even of gapps. [MENTION=5968293]side[/MENTION]: I installed TWRP-2.8.7.2-F2FS, wiped everything again, including internal and preload. ROM and Pico gapps installed successfull. Rebooted system, S4 logo comes on, christmas lights, and then the lights stop, still on logo and the blue letters top left comes on aswell (first only the red and orange) and it reboots into recovery again. :crying:

Sorry, reinstalled my nandroid again, because I need my phone.

If you have any ideas, I'll try again. Otherwise I wait for the next build...

I was wondering if anyone else running the Samsung S4 is having this issue: it has no reason as to when or why it does this....all of a sudden my SIM card is removed, must restart. This has happened, usually once to two times a DAY since around US Thanksgiving...I thought it might be a faulty battery, so I put my stock battery back in(was using a 7500mhz zerolemon) but it has not helped any.

As well, with this new rom, when I restarted my phone...I got stuck in the bootloop..so restored back to 11/30 rom.

Really wondering if anyone else is having the SIM card issue...talked with another dude, and he said he WAS...

I'm using a Galaxy S4 SGH-I337m (Canadian version on Telus Network)

I do a complete wipe and what not. How do I resolve this?

Did you wipe only cache, davlik, and data or did you wipe internal storage too?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] LimitsX:
So I was using TWRP 2.8.7.2-Antersone

i did it in the following order:

1.) factory wipe

2.) wipe dalvik, cache, internal storage, system

3.) Format data

I do the above steps 3 times then flash it.

:\
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] HeadSwitch:
I was getting that too but only after I converted data and cache to F2FS. Although I didn't wipe internal storage. Reflashed and no problems so far.

I always use F2FS and i still keep getting the same error. I went to stock TW 5.0.1 rom; flashed it 4x. Then wiped using TWRP non-f2fs variant. Same issue.

What version of TWRP? Have you tried flashing a different version?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] killermenpl:
The version with f2fs. I haven't updated it in a few months, so it is probably outdated. I tried using TWRP manager, but it says that there was an error during flashing. I have not tried with Odin as I don't want to risk it if there are other ways.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Kippy51:
If you're on a f2fs version it's not outdated, but maybe you haven't the latest one. But it should work! Want a newer one? Download the zip, put it on tour SD card and flash through recovery. It will override your old one.

I'am on 2.8.7.2-f2fs and it works great.
