[Q] Cm9 location services - Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet

am having problems with my location services on Cm9. 04.. I have made it so it will use my wireless network. The it however is not working.. Is there a fix and is anyone else having this problem?

We aren't the only ones. No fix I know.
Bill

I thought it was a kernel problem until I tried Keithn's AOKP. I guess something just isn't working in that ROM. You can try Keithn's AOKP if you want working location services.

Thanks, I guess it will be working when the ICS kernal version comes out. I am usinf CM7 as daily for now.

Froyo WPA2-Enterprise Wifi Issues

Ever since upgrading to 2.2 I have lost the ability to connect to my schools WPA2-Enterprise network. I've searched and found that this was an issue introduced in 2.2 (I could connect fine on 2.1) and has been fixed in 2.3. I've tried all the solutions I've found online and zero have worked. These include using apps from the market such as Wifi Advanced Configuring and replacing the wpa_supplicant file in /system/bin/ with the version from 2.1
The werid thing is, after completely wiping and flashing a new rom, it will connect fine the first time but not after that so im thinking it has something to do with certificate/credential storage?
The network I'm trying to connect to is WPA2-Enterprise, authenticated via PEAP and MSCHAPV2
Can anyone point me in the right direction? What system files might affect this? Can I try replacing them from a 2.3 build?
Any ideas/input would be appreciated
Ummm.....I connect the same exact way with the same exact settings at my job and I haven't experinced any issues while running 2.2. Which rom are you using?

Its happend on all of the 2.2 roms I've tried, (AOSP, MIUI, CM6, TW).
I've had the same issue. The odd thing is that some days I actually get it to link up on the first try to the same router, but other days I do all the various steps that you can find while googling for answers and never get to successfully connect.
Almost makes going back to 2.1 seem worthwhile...
Flashed a new rom today and connected to the network fine first try like usual. Cycled wifi and it wont connect again.
Anyone know where it stores wifi credentials? I'm thinking if I can clear them each time I want to connect it should work...
I'm in the same boat...although, my thread is on the second page with no replies. I am also unable to connect to enterprise wifi on campus...drives me nuts. I've spent countless hours trying to figure this out. I had no problems with enterprise wifi on 2.1...I wonder which file I could flash from 2.1 to make it work, I'm sure someone knows.
Looks like your school now has an allow list on their wifi

Are you saying my school restricts Android 2.2 users from using thier wifi while allowing 2.1 users to use it? I'm not sure what you mean...
Im saying maybe they needed more bandwidth so they put a block/allow list on their wifi. Nothing to do with your froyo. Or android. Could be they are ALLOWING ONLY KNOWN IP ADDRESSES now..(Since you dont know what an allow list is) Happened to me at work. And i dont have 3g at work so it sucks.
Only other explanation is that you screwed up during flashing. I was giving you the benefit of the doubt. I mean.......my wifi works just fine and ive flashed every rom in the dev section...currently on ec01 and wifi wpa2/enterprise is flawlessly working.

I'm fairly certain its not either of these issues, considering after I flash a rom I can connect to my schools network fine the first time. Its the subsequent connections that are giving me issues.
Here's a link to the issue on googles open source android project.
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1386
It basically says that it was an issue not present in 2.1, introduced in 2.2 and fixed in 2.3. I'm wondering if anyone knows what system files might affect this (wifi driver, certificates, deeper kernel issues?) and if anyone can point me in the right direction so I can start trying to pull files from other builds and see if it fixes my issues. I'm a complete noob but willing to give it a shot.
Can anyone let me know if ED01 or the official froyo rom has a fix for this wifi problem..??

As I'm sure you know by now, none of the froyo updates fix the wifi problem. However, I can report flashing JT's CM7 build did fix the issue and it truly is an awesome rom if you can stand a few features missing.
As of now, there seems to be no fix for froyo builds

That is nothing short of a disappointment...until there is a fix, I'll just have to keep a close eye on my data usage.
I am having same sorts of problems on all wifi since upgrade to 2.2 froyo pushed out to me by VZ when I changed out a "bad" handset. VZ no help, referred me to Samsung; they have acknowledge problem but have no fix, or eta....

Touchpad problems

I am aware that the touchpad has wifi issues, but really at this point I am clueless.
Let me tell you, I was on CM9 with no mod's (e.g. rohan's) I had this app called WiFi fixer which "FIXED" from time to time. Me being curious about cornerstone I decided to try it, oh and WiFi wasn't really that buggy for me on this CM9.
I flashed the CM9 with cornerstone, and I got in a bootloop (ugh!) I forgot to do a backup (UGH!). Okay! Most stuff is in my download folder and I can use my phone's TB to get most of my app's back. I wiped all my stuff and reflashed, and here comes the problem. My WiFi never wants to turn on again. I tried rohan's mod, the new wifi driver (forgot it's name). With or without cornerstone. (latest CM9 nightly). I did found my router for a moment yesterday but it disappeared rather quickly when I manged to try to login to my google account.
In short, my WiFi is really buggy and doesn't want to turn on. Any advice someone?
BTW, WebOS works fine with WiFi

[Q] Wifi location working yet in CM9?

Can anyone tell me if the wifi location software is working in any of the CM9 roms? It's working for me in CM7 but not in CM9. i.e. Google maps, Four Square, etc know my location based on wifi only. Wondering if it is user error on my part. Thanks!
Strange, isn't it? I can'y get it to work either. Just running .04. I'm going to stay with CM7 and play with 9 internal.

GPS not working with CM9?

Hi,
Yesterday I flashed CM9 resurrection edition (before that I had a 2.3.5 stock ROM) and GAPPS.
Everything seems to work fine, apart from the GPS function...
In 2 times I tried, it took my SG2 about 15-20 minutes to lock on to a signal (and after that it was fine...), but in all the other times, it doesn't get a lock on.
I d/l GPS status and GPS Test and I get nothing.
I tried the AGPS patch from here, but nothing seems to work.
I looked all over the net for a solution, but didn't got to anything useful.
Can anyone help?
Try to flash a newer CM9 Nightly. Many improvements have been committed since last resurection release.

I read GPS fix installs tons of spam and push ads. I prefer avoid it.
Any other idea?
Flash latest nightly. The latest commit found below fixes your problem

GPS Issues on CM9 and CM10

GPS has not worked on my phone in any build of Cyanogenmod 9 or 10. I am currently using Paranoid Android based on CM10 right now. I do not have Google's location services enabled if it makes any difference. I know GPS is not listed as an issue with these ROMs. Does anyone know a solution? Thanks in advance!

Running Epinter's unofficial CM10 without problems now. However, a week or so ago I was having problems with GPS taking way too long to lock (2+ mins). I installed FasterGPS from the Play Store (requires root) and restarted my phone. This seemed to have solved my issue.
How long did you wait before concluding GPS wasn't working?

I rarely used the GPS on the Atrix and realized something was wrong after it not working for the 3rd time or so. I believe using a GPS information app fixed it by forcing a download of the A-GPS data. I moved on to another device but I believe that was a temporary fix. Even then, the GPS was rather inaccurate.
Confirmed that fastergps works wonders. Great app.

i've tried diff apps in store no luck.
