Getting GPS to work - Galaxy Ace S5830 General

Well, I don't know, but I was on Grif_07's CM7.1 and the GPS did not work, it said "temporarily unavailable". Right now I am on CM7.2 Infinity ROM, any fix? (The tweak thread in development does not work). I've tried the older maps, no luck.

I Use Grifs CM.7.1 with the update fix. GPS works fine. Google maps doesn't though( FC all the time ). Navigation works great. I downloaded another maps program (and you can always use Gmaps online which works ok). Dont quote me on this but I have been told Gmaps is a no go on CM7 based roms but probably not the case! (Just can confirm not on grifs cm7.1)

What would happen if I flashed the cm7.1 OC kernel on infinity ROM which has the 7.2 kernel?

try to install again the rom, and try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1284506

I switched to gingerreal and used the GPS fix, it works.

Google Maps: Compass Mode - related to all 2.2 ROMs

I've encountered a problem with Compass Mode in Google Maps.
Talking about this: http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1082071
It works pretty well with stock 2.1 ROM, but doesn't work with any 2.2 ROM (tried Floyo, miniCM, Elelinux & others).
Does it work for anybody or is it a general problem?
Could any dev explains why it's so?
Thx in advance. Regards.
I'm using 2.3.3 and don't have any problems at all.

[Q] No Google maps in ICS?

I've installed Rebelrom 3.0 and now 3.1 but in both versions I can't find google maps anywhere. No maps show up in the play store either.
I did install the Gapps file so what am I missing?
Strange it doesn't look like maps is included with that rom, simply download another lpq based rom that has maps in it, like foxhound, and copy it to the /system/app dir.
Or try the Android market .
jje
I can hardly find anything on the market. With a direct link it keeps telling me the device in not compatible.
It's a shame because besides the missing apps the ROM is great.
Is there another ICS rom available that has none of the Samsung-look menus and compatible with Siyah kernels?
I've installed the HyDrOG3N-ICS rom and newest Gapps, works great so far. Play store works fine as well so except for the camera option I'm happy

Ics remix v9.7

Hi everyone i recently flashed this rom Ics remix v9.7. I ve installed everything by the book but am having problems installing apks with the market and even downloading anything from the stock browser.. I have read extensively about fixing market problems but none of the solutions seems to work. Pls can anyone assist .
Have you flashed the stock LPQ Kernel?, remember that you also need to flash that one in order to have a fully functional Market.
PS Resurrection ICS 1.0 (next version) is due in some time, so maybe you could wait a little bit and use a fully functional version...

[Q] market crashes after flashes cm9 nightlies (every time!!)

has anybody else have the problem of market crashing after flashing the nightlies? the only solution i have found so far is to flash an earlier version of gapps (newer version will not work). some apps also tend to "disappear" when paired with a broken market, but will reappear and work completely fine after reflashing gapps.
is there any work around to this issue without flashing all of gapps?
thanks for the help in advance
This isn't the place to report bugs or discuss that ROM.

cyanogenmod (gps doesnt work)

hi, i tried the 2015-10-03 nightly of cm and the gps doesnt work.
(i also tried booting into stock rom and getting a gps lock. then installing cm without wiping cache. but still no joy)
i also tried with slimkat rom and gps also doesnt work.
is there a way to use gps on an alternate rom or did samsung do something defensive to the gps module so that it only activates with touchwiz ?
thanks,
I installed both cynagenmod cm12 official nightly and Temaseks unofficial nightly and both picked up GPS
