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

I don't know why I have recurring GPS issues..I just flashed 1.6, and my navigation is hanging on "Searching for GPS". It has my location, but won't lock onto a satellite. Any ideas?

I had the same issue with 1.5.3. What I did I roll back the software to where the gps worked. For me went to 1.5.0 and checked the gps and it worked. So from there flashed 1.5.3. and the gps started working. Try to find with what firmware it worked on. Then flash from there to 1.6.0.

Flashed 1.5.3 - no GPS.
Cleared Dalvik cache, factory reset, flashed 1.6 - still no GPS.

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..
take a look at these threads...

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.
i installed cyanogen 7.2( the newest ) on my galaxy 5 i5500
but i turn on the wifi, it will auto close(the wifi is on but there is no wifi icon on the status bar and cannot browsing internet anymore, it is needed to restart the wifi(close and open again)) after i locked(blackscreen) about 5min
it is a big problem when i downloading some apps from market (my line is slow about 40kb/s only) therefore i needed to wait it but it is auto close.....
hope u understand what i m saying, because my english is bad and i m from malaysia
If you have the problem only when you have installed the cyano rom, try to do a wipe data and a wipe cache and re-flash the phone with the cyano, remember to install also the latest hotfix for the version that you have.
I have the same problem with official I5503TTLPJP9 ROM (Telstra).
Need to switch WIFI off and on again every time I need Internet access. So annoying!
i have the same problem it is so annoyig
Same here
I'm getting the same WIFI problem here, except that if I'm downloading something, it won´t turn off. But if I lock the screen and leave it alone, WIFI won´t come back on until I turn it off and on again.
I'm using CyanogenMod 7.2.0-RC0 v1.9.
Any hints?
I have the problem that it just shuts down without any reason
as far as i know.
if you go on lockscreen for a while it shuts down too.
but try downloading "blade wifi fix" from the android market.
it might help. because it auto refreshes your wifi
when it shuts down with some reasons in particular.
first thing to try when you encountered those kind of issues is Wipe wipe wipe wipe..
only when you already did it you could try to ask forums for help..
The new WPA-Supplicant download could solve this?
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
I've flashed CM7-AA-RC2, caming from CyanomobileXperience... I never had any problem with GPS on my ACE but when I flashed CyanomobileXperience I fonund the first problem with it: no fix and, after some time, neither the icon appears. I flashed CM7-AA-RC2 in order to fix the problem, wiping everything before to install. Today I realize that the problem is still here, no fix, no icon, not any kin of message or FC. I just can find my location using wifi.
Any suggestion bout what happen to my GPS?
