Haven't used it in a while and discovered it doesn't work !! It used to when I was on beta 2, but now all I get is a black screen and then it kicks back to the home screen. Does this on Bat2f and weekly 3. Does not matter whether GPS is on before I launch it or not. Might try to unistall and re-install it, but was hoping there was something easier.
I am running Bat2f and it works fine for me.
Can't figure out what happened to it. I thought it was working on bat2f before. Now that I think of it, I think it was working. The only thing I did was flashing a new radio to try and solve a slow wifi connect issue. Think I may have solved one problem and created another. I bet if I was really ambitious I could do a factory reset and solve the problem. Damned it ...
I've never had it work for CM7, but that was back when I had mytouch 4g. I'm surprised it was ever working on their roms.
Try turning off the gps before you start sygic. Mine will hang up trying to initiate the gps if it is already on.

Did that. Was used to doing that on previous versions off sygic. No luck. If i ever figure it out, I'll post what i found.

Hey guys...
Went away this weekend.. But before I did I managed to get Oncourse 8 running on my phone.
Its a full fledged GPS program. And it worked like a charm on the way up....
However once I got there.. things got screwy.
Now whenever I try to get the GPS receiver to work... the phone either crashes and restarts... or the gps fails to connect.
This happens both in OC8... and Google Maps.
Any thoughts?
Thanks.
Oh.. and a potentially related side note: The phone seems to lockup when its being charged.
Somethings going on...
Phone: Touch Pro (CDMA)
Carrier: Telus (canada)
Rom: Mighty Rom 6

I also use OCN8 and it works like a dream. I use NFSFan's Rom and have no problems with it, I have traveled 4 hours with it running one way and then back and it ran great, the only thing is sometimes if I get a call while running it closes, but all I have to do is restart.
what radio are you running and have you tried re flashing the rom to see if it works?
just update the friggin QuickGPS, U BE GOOD...some glitch somewhere
I just reflashed. Works fine now. thanks guys.
Is anyone else's totally sucking?? It always says either H, or 3G, but no data goes through. The "upload" arrow will light up, but not the "download" one... I also think it's killing my battery since it's constantly searching for a signal for checking e-mail and stuff? Just wondering if anyone else is having this problem or it's my phone? I'm outside of Chicago....
Same here. Someone I work with has the sgs4g and suffers the same problem.

Same problem down here in dallas tx i only really started noticing this with kb5 modem, i recently switched back to the KA6 modem. The problem is persistent but no where near as bad as it was on KB5
Having same issue here... went to Tmobile and they told me this is not a common problem. But the forums are littered with people having the same problem... found 1 rom that kinda manages it well. Axora

hmmm weird. I didn't really have a problem until a few days ago, but I'm glad to know it's not just me
I think I figured out when the data drops. The phone will lag to the point of inoperability, then the phone for some reason has trouble reconnecting to the tower. the only thing I have found to fix this is a factory data reset. I have been lucky enough to reboot in airplane mode sometimes which helped once or twice. Or to reload a rom. I just dont know how to fix it? I had my phone warranty replaced due to this issue and it still remains on new phone. I am somwhat pissed myself

Happens to me randomly specially when searching in Map app. Phone starts lagging and I have to reboot. After reboot it shows No entry like sign in status bar. Nothing works, I tried rebooting, reinstalling same rom, new rom, new modem. What works is take out battery and reinsert it. Thought I got a bad phone, but now it seems others have this issue too?
Im just south of chicago and I usually have to download my apps 2 or 3 times to actually get them installed. I noticed that after you choose to download and it spits you back out in to the menu. Reclick the app you just installed if there isno statusbar you are not trully downloading it.

I've been having problems with keeping gchat logged in. Constantly drops out and says either I'm not online or the other person is not online. My wife has the same problem with her vibrant.
In addition my GPS has been extra sucky lately, went from being able to lock 8 inside to usually not locking at all. Nothing I've tried has fixed it, but then randomly it'll work just fine. I can't reliably reproduce the problem.

This is the second vibrant that I have had this problem on, So I want to say software, unless I got 2 phones with the same problem. The EDT gps fix makes my gps lovely when I have a data connection. I know that heathen has also made a flashable data fix which would at least stop from having to do a data reset, and reinstalling all apps. Unfortunately the data fix is rom specific and not a universal deal. Anybody with more experience know why many vibrants have this intermittent problem???
Since I unrooted I have had no data drops, but cannot fully unlock the potential of the device, has anyone heard if a way to maintain stable data thru root?
Thanks

I kinda think I got the same thing goin on here. The only time I really notice it is in the market and usually only when doing updates to apps. Can't really say that DLing new apps has an issue tho.
I highly recommend CM7 .....I try every new rom and always come back to it. Just a thought haha

Just tried it (cm7) and data dropped in 24 hrs. I give up, I'm going to switch to a verizon based phone. Ive never had a problem rooting my g1 or mytouch with data. If anyone knows a fix I would be very interested in understanding the problem.
Data worked for a month straight un-rooted !!!!
Thanks
Did you try out different modems at all?
Hi, I was running BAMF Sense 5.0 ROM and suddenly wifi stopped working. It just gets stuck at "Turning on Wifi".
I am S-Off and I've tried flashing another kernel but no luck.
Anyone know what's wrong?
Oddly enough this just happened to me earlier today. WiFi wouldn't connect to my home network, but could see all available networks in my area. I tried turning WiFi off and on again, bit would get stuck at "turning on" without actually turning on. My laptop was able to connect just fine.
The problem seemed to fix itself by rebooting my router. Hasn't happened since.

Hi, thanks for your reply.
That's not the problem for me. It literally just won't turn on no matter what I do. No restart works, resetting router, flashing kernel. It's really frustrating.

I've not been able to fix it. I since moved onto Lumia 1520, but still want to get my Droid working again. Was thinking maybe buying replacement parts and self-fixing. But looking online, HTC Ones look pretty cheap these days, so may just buy one of those instead. If I'm to repair it myself, I'm not entirely sure where the Wifi is.
Was thinking just buying this, but it is kinda pricey...

I installed official CM11 and everything is working great now.
I don't see mention of it very often so I have to assume it's just me, but I have a terrible time with the radio getting borked out of the blue when I run any of the CM10 based ROMs. It will work fine for a few days, but out of nowhere, one I day I will turn the phone on and the radio will be messed up again. For example, this morning I installed the latest CM10.2 stable release. All was working fine... data, phone, etc. I got the ROM setup with all my apps and decided to make a backup. After doing the backup in recovery and rebooting, the radio no longer worked. So obviously I did something in recovery to screw it up.
Does anyone have any clue as to what I could be doing to cause this to happen so often? I want to run a CM Rom, but having to reset the radio once or twice a week is getting tiresome.
Thanks. For now i'll just reset the radio again and go back to stock and hope someone has some suggestions.

There are some versions that lose connectivity/data connection but it's not a borked radio. Most of the time you can restore a working system by just turning off data for a minute and then turning it back on.
I am in the process of downloading the "stable" release from 2013-12-11, but my current nightly of 2013-12-10 hasn't had any hiccups.
I wish it was that simple for me. I can typically get data to work again when it goes out by doing what you said, but the ability to make phone calls never comes back unless I do the whole restore radio procedure. When I look at my phone info, it has my phone number listed as all zeros. It's a pain.
Thanks for responding...

Ahhh, the 000-000-0000 number. Seriously, pull the battery. Don't shutdown, just pull it out, reseat, and turn on.
BTW, I installed the stable version yesterday and haven't had any problems. Flawless install, all of my apps still work and I didn't lose any data.
If that is all I needed to do, then I feel like a complete dummy. I guess I will reload the stable version again tomorrow and see what happens. Thanks for the info.
EDIT: I've come to the conclusion that i'm just not going to be able to run a CM10 based ROM. I have tried everything I can think of and/or read about on these forums and no matter what, I lose my ability to make calls using any of the CM10 ROMs. I know it's me because everyone else seems to run them fine, but I can't. It's a real bummer because I hate the stock ROM. I just don't know what to try anymore. I tried setting all the network settings as described in the directions (although I can't find the options for RIUU\SIM and NV mode anywhere). I triple wiped everything before flashing, I tried all the different CM10 ROMs and nightlys, I tried flashing with and without the sim card installed, etc. and nothing works. I get the 4G network, but my MEID ad phone number keep coming up as all zeros. It's very frustrating because the only reason I bought the phone off Ebay was to be able to run a CM rom.
I only have one thing left to try and I don't even know if it's worth it. Verizon sent me 2 4G sim cards by mistake so I have a spare sim card. I'm thinking of activating it and swapping out the old one in the hopes that it's a sim card issue. Although the current sim card works fine with the stock ROM so I doubt that's the problem but I don't know what else to try. Boy switching around to different ROMs sure was a lot easier with my old Dinc and Dinc2.
Have you tried running the latest RUU then flashing recovery and restoring? That seemed to solve a random reboot issue I was having, although I've never had radio issues. I have dirtyracun s-off, so it was pretty quick and easy.

Do you have system select as automatic or home only? I have that issue when automatic is selected.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk
I tried both automatic and home with same results. At some point i'll give it another try, but for now i'm going to stick with the Venom ROM because i'm getting tired of having to reset the radio. Some cold winter weekend day when i'm stuck in the house, i'll give it another shot.
first I've tried about 4-5 roms from stock tw to aosp style.
I get a gps lock but it's waaaaay off, floats around and doesn't give me my true location, maps, ingress etc none of them work properly.
my auto rotate doesn't work on any rom, beans/alliance dn3 gummy etc, it doesn't matter. if an app is landscape it tends to work and i can force an app to rotate aside from my camera app however nothing that should rotate when I turn my phone on its side seems to work. I. basically deal with it however is starting to get frustrating, I've tried everything I can think of and can't get it to work.
any ideas on what might fix this or is a warranty replacement the best course of action.
and lastly my presence sensor won't work, in calls the screen doesn't turn off I have to manually turn it off, I don't understand. it used to work great I could just place my hand in front of it on calls and it worked, not anymore.
I'm thinking I should just get a warranty replacement my quandary is that I've got my bootloader unlocked and I'd like to get another note 2 with an unlocked bootloader, however I know that's more always possible.

Chances for getting another Note 2 with it still on 4.1.2 is slim, but there is a chance.
Thats is weird that all of sudden this problem started occurring.. You did not drop your phone or do something that may have effected these things?
Have you tried to Odin a Stock Recovery and perform a Factory Reset? You might want to give that a go and see if it solves these issues.. Also when testing GPS, I have always resorted to an app called GPS Toolbox. It works great!

I have dropped it a few times however it lives in a TPU case, I've never dropped it from higher than about waist high. though it is possible
I'll try to Odin this weekend, can you point me to the most up to date rootable odin, I've done some searching I'm just not sure which is best.

Use the Stock Recovery image in the stickied Data Corruption thread in the General Section..
well I've tried a couple of different methods, guess something really is broken... I'm going to go back to bone stock and call VZW to get a replacement, damn this sucks... I'm not going to be able to flash the stuff I want.
whatever as long as everything else works.
flashed back to VRAMC3 called VZW went through 90 minutes of troubleshooting and updated all the way to Kit-Kat... still doesn't work.
and to top it all off, my vibrate just started going really strange.
I'll have a new phone tomorrow, hopefully ghetto root works.
May Not Be THE Solution, But Finally Worked For Me!
So, I've been experiencing GPS issues on R3Ds Port S5, SlimKat, Paranoid, DN3, and Dirty Unicorns... been trying all the solutions being posted in the threads before factory resetting and starting all over.
BTW I use GPS Toolbox to test my GPS connections and get 0/0 satelllites.
In a last ditch effort, I loaded AllianceRom and GPS connected (20/20 Satellites with GPS Toolbox)!! I was starting to suspect that it was hardware until AllianceRom. As great of a Rom as it is, I will likely not stay on it unless I cannot get any of the other Roms to connect GPS.
I'll let this Rom run for about 4-5 hours and then with a GPS fix, try and re-install Dirty Unicorns or R3Ds and report back.
I'm hoping this can be a solution for a least a few, if not all (wouldn't that be nice) of you experiencing the same issues as I was.
got a CLNR last week and everything works great.
sadly, no roms fixed the issue and now I'm on locked bootloader ND7.
on the bright side ghetto root worked and wanam xposed is at least a decent way to get what I want, manually editing my the files to increase volume etc is a pain, however it's better than nothing.
glad to hear alliance fixed your gps, hopefully it stays fixed.
