[Q] [Solved] SlimICS - No GPS - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
I am using SlimICS on my SGS2 and am quite content. One huge problem remains though: GPS does not work. No matter which application, the phone can't seem to find any Satellites. I see the little symbol in the upper left corner stating the phone is trying to figure out the position, but with no success. I tried another Kernel (latest Siyah b7) already, but that didn't change anything.
With Litening Rom v2.5 and the Siyah Kernel everything worked fine.
Does anybody has any suggestion as to where to look into to resolve this issue?
Thanks a lot already!

Wow, that was quick and it worked like a charm...
Thank you very much indeed!

[Q] Unnamed: Power Button Toggles Mute/Unmute

Hey y'all,
So I have Unnamed installed (currently v2.2.1), and have for a while. Every once and a while, hitting the power button (to wake up or sleep the phone, for example) will also toggle mute/unmute. Unfortunately, I am unable to replicate it consistently. It has persisted through upgrades of Unnamed. I have been using Unnamed since v1.0. Does anyone have any insight? I have searched for an answer but found nothing.
I have tried a few things on my own before posting:
Trying to make sure I'm not hitting another button
Full Wipe and reflash (With and without replacing data)
I have not tried:
Another ROM or back to stock to see if behavior continues
BTW: Long time user of the forum, first time posting. Great community, always helpful! As a fellow developer/techie (not Android) I really appreciate the hard work people put in here!
I hadn't heard of this issue. Perhaps it's a bad download? Or kernel related (if you've done anything with the kernel)?

Originally. I also messed with the voltages however after experiencing this issue reverted back during reflash.

Hi... I am facing the same problem with my Galaxy SII I9100
Is there any solution for this?
If you give more Information Such as your current ROM, Modem and APPS which you are using .. it will help to find out reason for the same.
It happened to me, I think its when the phone get disconnected from the network (not the wifi).
hey, my galaxy s2 keeps lighting up from idle as well. stock ics installed from the phone directly and using apex launcher. problem persists even in stock launcher. help
Yep having the same problem. It's very frustrating. Screen seems to wake up randomly

Try a different rom and see if the problem still persists. Thanks! :good:

[Q] Weird Screen issue on cm10 and older roms

hi
can anyone please help me?
i have had an atrix for almost a year now and have had no issues with it. recently i took a big step and decided to get the cm10 rom by th3bill onto my atrix!
all worked fine for a few weeks until about a week ago. i noticed that my lockscreen pattern wasnt entering as normal. the pattern would not connect to the dots i wanted it to. on the main screen if i tap on the central button to get to the menu for my apps it will automatically respond my touch to the right/left icon and take me onto my contacts/sms instead. also while typing certain letters e.g "t" will not be recognised and instead "r" will show up instead.
somehow i managed to remove my pattern lock but the other issues are still present.
i thought that it may be a bug with the rom so i decided to go back to cm7.2 which was running perfectly on the phone thinking that this may be the solution, but even that rom is now giving me the same problem :crying:
can someone please advise me as to what the problem is/what i should do?
thnx in advance
Ok so i also had/have this problem. You can find a temporary solution and info here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27595402&postcount=1
I replaced my digitizer and the dead zone changed position.So know that replacing the digitizer might help or might not help...
Good luck

[Q] Bad GPS signal, what can i do?

Hello there,
i realized just yesterday that i have a really bad GPS signal. Was annoying to navigate with the phone on the highway...
Things i have:
Samsung Galaxy S2 with custom ROM PACMAN 20.0.0 founf through XDA.
Things i did:

Did anyone face a similar problem? I post i here since i believe it's not ROM related. I had the same problems with several other ROMs.

[Q] Wifi won't turn on or connect - HELP

Hello!
Okie, here is a kind of weird problem i am confronted with. About a week ago, i suddenly noticed that my phone is not updating apps and when i checked my wifi, found it turned off. Since then i have tried my best to make it connect with wifi, but of no avail. when i press the wifi toggle, it looks as if its turning on, but it stays there, a dim green line.... Never finds any network and never connects. The IP adress says "Unavailable". What have i tried:-
1. Clean install of different roms including Omega v24, Latest Neat Rom, Kitkat versions, Old 2.3.6 GBs, ICS rom and few others.
2. Clean install of Official GB, ICS and JB firmwares via Odin.
3. Changed different compatible Kernels
4. All kind of wipes including Nuke wipe
5. Opened my cell to the screen level, brushed and cleared all hardware for dust, debris etc.
Now, you can see i have exhausted almost all options here. The cell works all fine, no other anomaly, just this wifi won't turn on. I am not convinced that it could be any hardware issue because my cell didnt fall off, accidented or mishandled since i have get it. in addition during my hardware inspection, i couldn't notice any breakage, leakage etc.
I humbly request my seniors to help me finding a nice solution. Thanks.
If alternative firmware hasn't helped (stock 4.0.3 had a horrible bug with similar behaviour), then it might well be a hardware fault: http://www.stampede-design.com/blog/2012/07/samsung-galaxy-s2-wifi-issue/#.UrbGbpBFCaw

Thanx for the response. I has checked the BAT500 thing on my mainboard during self-repair but it looked just fine, no acidic leakage there.
Try to install the latest version of Odin stock ROM. Then the kernel flasha Philz and choose a ROM to your liking
Thanx for input bro, but have tried that already. No luck.
