Hey everyone,
after i updated my SGS 2 to ICS 4.0.3 and installed the FoxHound GreyFox V2 my phone gets no GPS signal anymore and i can´t turn GPS on or off, only if i reboot after i changed the settings.
Anyone else with such a problem or any solutions for it?
Does the GPS work in other applications, like in GPS Test?
Start posting in the correct thread and GPS will start working,ur GPS will even tell u were to post too
With GPS Test it works, but with Navigon for example it doesn´t work
I am not sure if this will help but its an app which helps you to find your location faster. It called FasterFix. Search it.
If this does not work then u can test other navigation apps...
Thanks GPS works now, but i still can´t turn it off or on without rebooting the phone
Flash stock rom and test if it fails then its the custom rom you are using .
jje
okay i will try

What kind of security is your wifi modem is having? is it wps smthng lk that? Did you tried with different wifi hotspots?
it doesnt have any security, i disable it
The thing is that it doesn even recognize that there is a wifi signal, it just turn off automatically before without detecting any wifi signal, i tried at work and the same thing happened
(sorry if i misspelled a lot of words jejeje)
try to flash another ROM and see if it works...
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA premium app
i restored the backup i made with cwm and everything works fine now (touch x-power rom), and if i reinstall check rom the wifi goes out again, it seems it deletes something that leaves me with no wifi mac adress (i searched in about the phone, turning on and of wifi and every time it said not available)
Bizarre...
im getting the same thing, did anyone find a solution?
had this same exact issue.. it is a hardware problem.. so changing rom, kernel or fw wont help you at all... only solution is going to samsung service center.. my problem was solved in 3 days..so many s2 users have this problem..

There are a lot of problems with KK5 and wifi. If you update Busybox it borks it completely. I can't connect to my 5Ghz home wifi but the 2.4 Ghz works fine. I also can't connect to some wifi that uses WEP. All works fine with previous builds. I have seen threads that suggest replacing the wpa_suplicant file from Android 2.3.5 fixes the problem.
Hi all and thank you for your advice in advance.
I have recently updated my Samsung Galaxy S2 to Resurrection Remix Pro 1.1 and have installed the latest Siyah Kernel 3.0.1.
I don't remember trying the GPS on the stock kernel so not sure if it worked before installing Siyah Kernel on RR1. GPS just can't get a lock.
I have tried fastfix and installing a zip which does the same thing to switch to the correct server (UK) however I just cant get a lock.
Please help, I have a trip coming up in the car and need the GPS for the Sat Nav.
Try the AGPS patch in my sig. Also, get GPS Status from Google Play. When you install it, make sure you're outside with a relatively clear view of the sky & that you have data switched on. Go into tools in GPS Status & "manage AGPS state". Then reset AGPS data, and download fresh data/ephemeris.
Then wait until you get a lock with a bunch of satellites (could take up to 10 mins the first time). Once you've done that, you should get a lock fairly quickly thereafter. If you find locking starts to slow down again, after days/weeks/months or whatever, reset data/redownload data again & give it that time to 'learn' where the satellites are again.

Thank you so much for the help. Got it working now. Used the push option as CWM wouldn't install the AGPS fix due to error code 0. Installed the google version 3.1 and used the GPS status app and got 5 of 6 satellites just holding my phone near a window (it's raining out atm so didn't want to take my phone outside!).
Thanks again.
Hi to all
I have strange problem with GPS. GPS can't lock
I tryed several roms: CM7 , CM9 and Liberated Aria 2.2.2 . all roms with wipe and data del
and in all romes the GPS not work
can be the problem with GPS chip ? i can somehow reflash GPS/radio ?
Have you tried using the GPS Status and Toolbox app? I had the same issue on Winsuk's CM10. In the app, press menu, select tools, reset a-gps data, and then tell it to download a-gps data. That fixed the issue for me anyway. YMMV.
Hi , thanks for replying
This didnt help.
GPS suddenly stop to lock on nightly build CM7.2 . i know that was problems with 7.2 and gps.
then i tried CM7.1 that i know that was no problems with GPS. and still , can't lock
i think that something happened to GPS chip. I don't know how to check it
from dmesg(attached) log , i can't find something suspicious
My Xperia Sola is installed with the latest Papago and when i clicked on gps status, it shows "Gps not working". I tried using GPS status apps and still no avail. Then i tried to use FasterGPS but when i've installed it, it says something like root binary could not be found and force me to exit although i'm perfectly aware that the phone was rooted. So this is where i would like to ask for your help guys. If possible i don't want to re-flash the rom because everything is working so fine except for the gps. So what exatly is wrong and how do i recognized it? Currently i'm using eXperience Innovation v1.1 rom. Thanks in advance

Could sby help me?
