I having the same issue as well, on latest purify 1.2.2 kernel, but on temasek v11 rom. I waited for about 6mins to get a lockon. I have already configured the gps.cfg file using FasterGPS to my region.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] rjrjzozo:
You can try also SUHIDE from Chainfire.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] mon@diac:
Try Kernel Adiutor-Mod..
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] mon@diac:
I had said that but I repeat here... Gps fixed and updated in next version.. Switched to Aosp comp. and solves locking issues...
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] DisturbedOrange:
Will the next version be compatible with verizon perhaps? :D :D
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Sleestax:
Mon@diac,

Any chance for a 4.7 build that does not have root baked in? (Same for kernel 1.2.3?).
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] lambgx02:
I'm running Temasek's CM13 and I was curious if Purify had the same LocationServices bug.

If anyone has GPS Status & Toolbox installed and set to display its status bar indicator when the GPS hardware is present, can you launch Google Maps and see if its icon (not the location teardrop, but the GPS Status & Toolbox satellite) appears? Or, does it only appear once you try to navigate somewhere?

If you try to share a location from, say, Whatsapp, does the little satellite icon appear?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] mon@diac:
I'm sorry. Earlier I saw your pm but I forgot to reply it.. What's the problem with Verizon?

Built-in root access?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] third_degreee:
I was using Temasek's CM13 up until yesterday when I installed Purify and the latest PurifyK 1.2.2 and the GPS using Google Maps now works, no more "GPS signal lost".

It was driving me crazy on Temasek and the GPS going and coming back so thought I'd take the plunge and go Purify to get back the SatNav navigation whilst driving.

Another advantage with Purify is the battery life is far better than using Temasek, 30-40% longer.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Sleestax:
When I go into dev options, it shows root baked in.

http://i.imgur.com/tw4MQuT.png

OK, never mind, it's baked into CM13. It's turned off by default, but some apps detect it anyway. I guess I'm stuck with a wonky Xposed work around for Good for Enterprise, unless that new chain fire hidesu works.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] DisturbedOrange:
I made the changes to the updater script to install the rom on my SM-N900V but I am having problems with connecting to VZW properly. I am getting data and can go to websites but under the mobile data icon in the status bar I am showing "No Service". I have tried using the apns-conf.xml from another rom and edited the build.prop but had no success.

I would like to use this ROM for my verizon phone but not being able to make calls or texts is a deal breaker
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] dlclassic:
Anyone else having issues with Wifi passwords not being remembered?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] mon@diac:
Ok built-in root.. If there is a general consensus in the thread, I can remove it.

Hmm.. Ok Let's see what I can do...
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Sleestax:
Please ignore my request. Root is, apparently, baked into CM13 and disabled by default as part of privacy guard. I guess Good for Enterprise figured out how to find it anyway (or maybe just checks if it's on CM).
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] sebastjanp:
I'm ok with non rooted ROM and flashing SuperSU if one needs it. And the possibility to total unroot with supersu option.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] DisturbedOrange:
I would be very interested in learning how you did it as well if you're able to port it to Verizon =D

Edit: grammar
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] NImesh Basu:
Yes I'm facing the same problem
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] svbarbosa:
+1 to remove root.

You can always flash supersu if you want root. I always do it anyway.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] cryostasis25:
Update baseband should fix this issue.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] svbarbosa:
Thanks. Worked like a charm!

Do I have to turn off "VDD Restriction"? I did to be safe but I am curious if it would work with Intelli Thermal.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Hobbygamer27:
Well but gps only on gmaps does still not work on my device. Got the version of 8/22 installed.

Do you already know when the new version is coming?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Sleestax:
I agree, but I have no idea how hard it would be for mon@diac to remove root. Temasek had it removed and you could flash it separately if you wanted it. However, the Temasek ROM has it's own issues at the moment (battery drain and GPS fix for many users). Maybe when Trader creates the next build, from newer CM sources, it will resolve those issues.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] svbarbosa:
AFAIK it is a compile flag. All he has to do is to change one line.

And since people that need the no-root rom have to look somewhere else if root is built-in, it makes more sense to disable it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Pehpe:
Does xposed work on this rom?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Sleestax:
Yes, I'm using it out of necessity for Good for Enterprise. You need the sdk23 framework.

---------- Post added at 07:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:23 PM ----------

Oh, in that case I renew my request to have a non-root build. :laugh:
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] mon@diac:
If you need performance or you're a gamer, disabled it and enable Intellithermal. Underclock a small amount until to not have lag and to not over heat the phone. VDD restriction limits Cpu voltage. For Core control and Core throttling, Do not enable both of them.. Onyl use Core control..

in a few days..
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] svbarbosa:
Just to be sure.

If I turn on IntelliThermal both "Core Control" and "VDD Restriction" must be off, right?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] mon@diac:
Core Control is keeping cores offline﻿. If you enable, others must be disabled.. 2 or three enabled will limit cpu cores and frequency so will cool down but bad impacts Cpu's work and laggy behaviour ... With intelli-thermal, shut them off completely ;)
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] lambgx02:
Interesting. Would you happen to have GPS Status and Toolbox installed? I'm really curious if Maps itself now causes the hardware gps to power up.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Pnut9005:
Hello

First of all thank you mon@diac for your hard work!

I want to share a bug-solution i found.

In the past there was a problem on sound glitch-cracking on some users. It returned to me on version 4.6, solution:i erased audio fx from root/system/priv-app and reboot. The sound glitch dissapeared!.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] newintage:
+1 too. CM Root is problematic. SuperSU is riding fine.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ibosilj:
​

I have tried with device only mode and the problem with gps lock in gmaps still persists. I still have to start gps locker first to get lock in maps.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] svbarbosa:
I have been experimenting with gps.conf and have a modified one.

In my case gps locks in 1-3 seconds and gps accuracy is 3-6 meters (10-20 feet)

Please give it a try and post results.

The attached zip is not to be flashed. You have to unzip and copy gps.conf to /etc. Give it rw-r-r permissions to be safe.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] SEB1109:
Is the gps.conf file for a specific area? (North America, Europe, South America...) I mean is it configured for your country or is it universal and anyone can use it anywhere as is?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] rewalax:
well,I vote for built-in root,cuz this is a "purify" cm13, no need to change too much, and it works well with the built-in root.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] svbarbosa:
NTP server is configured for North America (north-america.pool.ntp.org), as in Purify gps.conf.

I live in Rio de Janeiro and did some tests with closer NTP servers. Since I did not feel any change I left the original setting.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] lucky9uy:
Am i doing something wrong? the wifi seems to disconnect itself every so often
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] cryostasis25:
Yo may want to update your baseband
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Tech geek:
[MENTION=2694538]mon@diac[/MENTION] is this compatible with sprint variant?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] mon@diac:
I'm not sure because I have made a separate build (to native work) for Sprint a few months ago but that was not enough interest for me.. Build was OK but only for a few users, I can't make a regular build for Sprint. Built in support in Purify? I'm not sure I want that.. New issues, additional support and at the other side, no time..
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Santa-Claus_16:
mon@diac, I did everything according to your instructions, but I still get a bootloop during the installation 4.6

Maybe it's because I have a Hong Kong 16GB (TGY)?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] mon@diac:
16 Gb? This is a big problem... You can not install 32 Gb firmware (N9005 firmware) on your device .... Also from another country... You'll get various errors (invalid ext4, write error, etc...).. You can use lollipop bootloader on your device and you can search it ( 16 GB and 32 Gb flashable bootloader via Odin ) on google.. If you find it, just flash it via Odin and try again.. I have no experience with your device but This only an idea..
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Santa-Claus_16:
It does not help, no matter what modem or bootloader. Wash it all depends on the kernel. 4.6 to 1.1 kernel works, no booloop, but the firmware does not work properly, slows down and buggy. Maybe you could look at what has changed in the kernel now I can not run 4.6.

P.S. I can put any firmware from the 32 GB device if repackage it in a zip for recovery, it works.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ngsngn:
Thanks for your gps.cfg file. Unfortunately, still encounter the same issue as well.

Nonetheless, appreciate you sharing as mon@diac mentioned he has fixed it in the next version.

GPS Antenna Bad Contact Fix

Maybe your Note is suffering from bad contact on the GPS antenna connection between the internal motherboard cover and the motherboard chassis. This internal cover is the one below the battery and holds all antennas.

I own 3 Notes 3 (yes, I do like this phone).

One of them was having a hard time to lock gps side by side with the other two phones locking in seconds.

I had read a few posts on the antenna bad contact and decided to give it a try. It solved the problem.

You must be very careful not to damage the phone. Watch the Youtube videos below before doing it. I strongly recommend you to watch both in full BEFORE starting.

- Fix Samsung Galaxy Note 3 GPS

- Galaxy Note 3 Disassembly Teardown & Assembly

The first is right to the point of fixing the antenna bad contact. It is enough for the more skilled.

The second is a longer video on disassembly and reassembly. It is worth watching.

Hope this will solve your problem.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ngsngn:
Thanks. I have no problem getting fix, just that is the lock-on that is happening very slowly which mon@diac mentioned it has been fixed.

Cheers!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] svbarbosa:
Well, I have no problem in getting the lock in seconds using the current version. Should also work for you.

Forgot to mention that updating A-GPS data could help the phone to lock faster.

Download GPS Test from Play Store to do it.

Run the app, tap on the three dots menu. Select "Clear AGPS", wait a few seconds and then select "Update AGPS".

Let me know how it goes. :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ngsngn:
Just to mention i'm using temasek v11 rom, but purify 1.2.2 kernel. Tried updating the AGPS, kinda help a bit, but i suspect tomorrow may be back to square one. Last time used to be able to lock-on with <10 fix, now seems like need more.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] OptimusOBrien:
I seem to be having this problem as well. I am on from I can see the most current baseband for my variant and my wifi seems to do this as well. Was good all night than I woke up this am and it was dropping and reconnecting every few seconds

I feel like Im doing something wrong or missing something. When my screen goes off the Wifi does to than reconnects. I have it set to stay on at all times but it turns off. Am I missing something

Reply ASAP

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] svbarbosa:
Unfortunately the answer is no.

Please, never ever reply an OP (Opening Post). It is a big mistake.

And please edit your post to remove the quoted OP.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] ldolezel:
I'm having a lot of trouble with mobile data. A typical scenario is that I'm using them, then they suddenly stop working and after I reconnect, there is an exclamation mark next to the mobile data icon.

Toggling the flight mode doesn't fix anything, only a full reboot. That always helps.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] wzhao14:
My can got a fix within seconds if I set my location preference to high accuracy too, but in a really wired way: the app shows fixed even if there is only one or two satellites visible(to get a gps fix, we need at least 4 satellites). Google map did show my location, but if I move, the location got updated really slow.

Then I changed the location preference to device only (GPS only), it took a long time to get a fix.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] BillGoss:
I also have the 16 GB TGY version and I've never ever had any issues flashing any Note 3 ROMs over the past 2.5 years. The 16 GB only affects the amount of available internal user space (/sdcard).

The only thing special about this phone is that it had a slightly different partition arrangement to that of other Note 3s so you be careful about flashing non-TGY stock ROMs.

Having said that, I had no problems flashing Purify 4.6 with kernel 1.2.2. I did a clean install: wiped data and system then flashed ROM, kernel, SuperSU, Gapps.

My baseband (modem) and bootloader are N9005ZSUGPG1.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] svbarbosa:
In my case gps is set to high accuracy but i only get a lock with at least 6 satellites in use. Just tried indoors and it took over a minute to get a 3D lock.

How long is long? In GPS Test app, if you press twice the small world map in the bottom, it will show the satellites in the sky. In the bottom right you will see the time it took for the first fix.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] wzhao14:
I don't know about your situation, but in my case, it took more than 10 min outdoor with GPS only. And the location is updated really slow; when I am driving, my gps location can easily lag half mile behind.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] svbarbosa:
Try the steps in my previous posts:

1) Use my custom gps.conf - post #2425.

2) Update your A-GPS Data - post #2440.

3) And as a last resort clean the GPS antenna contact - post #2438.

GPS must lock in a few seconds. These steps should take you there.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] wzhao14:
Thanks for the suggestions, I tried the first two but still no luck. The wired behavior is gone but now it takes several minutes jut to get a fix. I am quite sure my gps hardware is fine because it was working when I was on stock or TW based ROMs.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] svbarbosa:
There are many posts that tell you to make a nandroid backup, clean flash a stock tw rom with Odin, boot and get a GPS fix. Once you are able to get the fix in a few seconds you restore the nandroid backup and GPS should remain ok.

Try this before the final step. It might solve the problem and save the risks of a "phone surgery".

EDIT: It would be best to use the latest firmware for your phone. Download it from sammobile. This way you will get the latest bootloader and modem as a bonus.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] wzhao14:
I did try it, but unfortunately did not work. Seems tome that google map cant reach gps data, i can get a gps only fix in gps tool but not inside google map. Thank you for taking time to hep me. I appreciate it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] svbarbosa:
If your problem is Google Maps sustaining the gps lock, this is what I believe will be fixed in the next build. [MENTION=2694538]mon@diac[/MENTION], please correct me if I'm wrong.

In the meantime there is an easy workaround. Download the app GPS Locker from Playstore and leave it running in the background while you are using Maps.

Or even better, dump Maps and start using Waze. ;)
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] wzhao14:
Thank you, HERE map does work even though it is really hard to dump google map, I 've been heavily relied on google map for years after all. I hope mon@diac will fix this issue in the next build; it will truly become a perfect ROM.

THi all

I installed this ROM a couple of days ago seems very good!!

The only real problem I have is I can't write to my External SD Card

I have tried changing permissions can't do

I've tried a bunch of SD Card fixers including the MM one

Should I backup my SD Card and re-format it?

Cheers

And sound is also abit crackly

Just reporting a niche "bug" (?) with this rom.

I couldn't for the life of me make my POS application work with my POS terminal (Point Of Sale, a little bluetooth app to accept payments with credit and debit cards).

I resetted so many times the data of the app, the pairing data on the terminal, I even did a data reset on bluetooth share, but it simply wouldn't connect.

General bluetooth functionality worked (I could send a file to my pc).

I restored the nandroid for temasek 10 and it started working again as if nothing happened.

Maybe something with the bluetooth is different?

Try to edit the lines of the NTP Server

# NTP_SERVER=time.gpsonextra.net
#Asia
# NTP_SERVER=asia.pool.ntp.org
#Europe
# NTP_SERVER=europe.pool.ntp.org
#North America
NTP_SERVER=north-america.pool.ntp.org

When you are outside of north-america do a "#" infront of north-america and delete the "#" infront of your region.

Maybe it would be better to take the NTP of your country. In my case for example "at.pool.ntp.org" for Austria.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] svbarbosa:
I have been doing a lot of experimentation and research with gps configuration.

One of my conclusions it that the NTP server is not so much important.

GPS firmware is highly dependent on a very precise time, but once it connects to satellites it gets time from them.

So the NTP server is only used to provide a start time. A closer server would theoretically provide a better starting point due to less internet latency, but that is not always the case.

One of the tests I did was to remove NTP server info completely. No NTP lines in gps.conf. And guess what. There was no perceptible difference in the time to lock, even after a reboot.

This is why I do not bother to change it. Also North America has 1000 active servers and South America only 40. :p

Sorry guys for being so OT, but I believe GPS is an interesting subject. :o

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Kkslider123:
I have the N900P (Sprint) Note 3. Going to Settings>Cellular Networks>Carrier Settings results in:

"Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped"

I always do a clean flash when upgrading to new versions of this ROM. Have been using it since 3.9 and I always get this error message. Does anyone else experience this? I am unable to use my cellular service because of the error. [MENTION=2694538]mon@diac[/MENTION]

EDIT: Following up to report that the "Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped" message also appears on the Temasek ROM, but at least the cell service works so I don't mind. I also flashed the stock firmware via Odin and can get cell service there as well. It seems like this ROM is the only one that can't access my cell service for some reason. Which is a shame because this is my favorite ROM!
