I have been looking for a fix for international Roms So I can run them on my Note II from Verizon
Several Roms out there for the Note II but not a lot of them unless they are Verizon Versions on the Software Some of the VZW Apps Don't work properly This should Fix the GPS Issue you might ran into.
It does two things, moves the VZW lib files over for GPS and it also should fix the volume levels in some apps that are low...

any fix for group messaging on international roms?
Thanks for posting this thread. I'm sure it will benefit many who suffer. I haven't had any GPS issues on any rom I flashed. Is it possible Samsung used GPS chips from different vendors?
Running cleanrom 4.9 and it doesn't look like this fix worked for me, thanks for trying though!

Have you tried getting a gps lock on another ROM, done a nandroid, re flashed desired ROM? Usually this fixes it. Or if you toggle between LTE/CDMA and Global under the Wireless & Networks this too sometimes helps.

If it Doesn't I Flash Beans then use root uninstaller to back up the maps apk and stick it on your EXTSDCARD and go to recovery and wipe everything flash International Rom and the go to ES File Explorer and hit the menu button and go to tools/root explorer/Mount R/W and mount all RW NOT RO then go into the ES Explorer and go to Local and EXTSDCARD Then restore the Gmaps and it will ask to overwrite and say yes to all. Then reboot the Phone. When the Note II reboots then go to the Google Store and pick up GPS test its free and you can reset the AGPS and Update the AGPS Signals GO out side and get your Signal. If this doesn't work Try to Flash the Scotts GPS test Patch and should help. FYI I have had issues with the Global Mode popping up a lot and I went into the settings/more settings/Mobile Networks/Network Mode and change to LTE/CDMA and then if you get Updating Sim Card info a lot at the bottom of the Screen Set it back to Global and should fix but you will still get the Switch to Global mode Message More I am still stuck how to fix that issue.

Think this fix will work on the minitabinternational ROM? I believe its base is still the same am I wrong. Mini tab is the only ROM I've ever had that GPS doesn't lock.
This did not work on JediX14... Still no gps signal, I've tried all the workarounds
I can confirm this didn't work on Sungsonic rom. I wiped everything, flashed rom, kernel, modem, vzw patch, gps fix no service.
Edit: probably was due to the Rom being an n7100 rom

This should fix your issue with GPS not locking and GPS not acquiring satellite!
IT IS NOT THE CUSTOM ROM YOU LOADED ONTO YOUR ROOTED DEVICE LIKE MOST of you may think.
This is an issue with samsung and specifically samsung verizon products ie: S2 S3 Note, Note 2 etc...
And mods governing these forums please sticky this thread and maybe post a link at the end page of all those other question threads regarding GPS's not locking or requesting GPS help

update maps from android market if your phone auto updates after you reboot that's ok, my note 2 auto updated maps and my gps worked fine
That's it your GPS should be working now
I did this after fighting for days with my gps...allot of people are using wifi location and thinking they are getting a lock...I used this after getting 0/0 satellites and now getting 13/21...very accurate...I tried this in my house...did not work...only outside(I know its in the instructions)...thanks

The issue with GPS is within the rom. Differedt Devs use differet things to make sure that all things work. Please read your rom forum to make sure you do not have issues. GPS is a problem with "some" roms until the devs include the needed libs. There is no simple fix as of yet.
I have no idea what y'all are talking about. What problem with gps? and what rom are you all using?

While that was true when the phone came out by now the devs have blaced those libs in and are testing different ones because it will fix 95% of the peoples GPS but there are still the fringe 5% that it doesnt get fixed. It isnt just a ROM problem, devs in the S3 forums theorized that there was still data left over from your previous rom and that was causing the issue but there is no consensus on what exactly is causing the problem. I believe it is the previous ROM leaving things behind because on the S3 and this phone if GPS doesnt work from the start a quick flash back to a TW ROM, activating GPS, getting a lock, and loading your nandroid or reflashing your rom will have it fixed. The same thing happened with the NFC on the S3 and the fix was the same, so it seems the TW ROMS are leaving behind bits and pieces.
This is easier than the flashing a different rom process and it works for a lot of people, including myself, so it most definitely works, it just may not work for everyone. Then again nothing on any phone works perfectly for every single person.

There is people having problems with getting the gps to ping in. After flashing a rom. Well here is a fix for everyone having problems. .
Steps to take
1.Reboot into recovery
2.Backup everything up
3.Reboot into recovery
4.WIPE CACHE & DALVIK CACHE
5. FACTORY RESET
6. WIPE DATA
7. WIPE THE INTERNAL SD CARD
8.Flash your favorite rom
9. Reboot system
10. Once you have your phone up and running. Go outside and run your gps.
Or you can just use file manager. And delete the Android file in internal sd card. Restart your phone. Then follow step 10. All should work. .
Sent from my SCH-I605 using Xparent BlueTapatalk 2
Yeah, I don't know. Also, kind of redundant - as factory reset covers everything but wiping internal sdcard.
I can get GPS to run on each and every ROM I run and I've never followed these steps. Download GPS Status from market first. Turn on wifi and GPS - then open Maps. Then open GPS Status. It will say 'Maps updated to latest version'. Type in an address and start navigation. Place in window sill until it locks. Once it locks once - you're good.
Everytime.

I've never had gps problems ever till I flashed novella rom. I haven't had a gps lock on it yet, but I haven't needed it and I really like this rom, but I'll try your idea first because the first one will take a while.

I read somewhere in the Novella thread that if you flash another rom that has working gps, run the GPS Fix app, once it fixes gps, back up that app and restore the rom with broken gps. Then restore GPS Fix app, run it.
I just did this and it worked.

A few months back I had working GPS on ParanoidAndroid. I let my brother use this phone for a while, and now I'm back. He used a flash of CleanROM while he had it.
As soon as I got this phone back, I flashed to the newest CM nightly. Everything seemed to work fine until I noticed a problem with GPS yesterday.
I'm trying to troubleshoot the problem today. I've flashed VRALJB (after wiping system/data/internal sd) and have done nothing but log in to the App Store and download GPS Test. I usually have no problem getting a fix at my desk indoors, but I've walked outside with this thing too. I see 28 satellites in view, but it's stuck at 0 in use. No matter what I do, it says "In Use 0". This is driving me bonkers.
Edit: Going to try sitting it on the windowsill with nav running. Will report back.
Edit2: Nothing is working. On an old version of beans, only because I know it used to work. Currently 19 in view, 0 in use. Going to give up until I go for a drive or something.

I think it's really just getting the lock then immediately flashing new ROM. That worked on s3, razr, lg spectrum and my note. One if the spec devs figured out why it worked, but I can't recall anymore. It was some command it called when working that the bad ROM wasn't and for some reason when it was active it would last through a flash.

Usually deleting and resetting the gps files through the app "gps status" (found in the playstore) works for me within 20-60 seconds, but in my worst case scenario(so far) I did have to reflash scott's verizon patch[newest radios] and THEN run the app, but other than that I think ive been pretty lucky. Never had to reflash any rom to regain gps lock...
I flash ALOT... and also yes.

Yes, definitely. More than one time. I'm on the newest radios if that makes any difference. Starting to wonder if the gps hardware has gone bad.
When I'm wiping, I'm flashing to a rooted/deodexed VRALJB. Can't get a lock on that or on CM.

Format your internal sd card from your computer. If you know how to. Then pull battery and then restart your phone. Then try to ping the gps. Backup your pics or anything else you dont want to lose. You wont brink your phone by doing this.. its just wiping all the bull crap that built up..

This is what I do:
1) Reboot recovery
2) Wipe cache, dalvik, data
3) Delete everything in /sdcard/
4) Install VRALJB
5) Reboot system
6) Skip setup wizard and go straight to Maps... nothing
7) Sign in to Play store and download GPS Status... nothing
8) Update AGPS data... nothing
9) Toggling off/on Verizon location service.... nothing either way
Back when I used to be able to get a fix with this phone, I would have vertical bars underneath where it says "In View" and "In Use". I'd see them bouncing up and down even before I truly had a fix. I get absolutely nothing now. No movement at all. Indoors, outdoors... I took it for a walk with me today and got nothing. :crying:
Edit: Screw it. I was hoping I wouldn't have to, but I'm going to Odin and re-jailbreak. Will report back.
Edit2: I ran Odin, jailbroke and restored a backup. No difference. Maybe I shouldn't have restored the backup. Sigh...
So even a stock rom won't give you a gps lock? What about before you unlocked/rooted again? Have you tried to go completely back to stock, then a gps lock? If that doesn't work. Give Verizon a call for a replacement.

Yeah... I just Odin'd again and decided to test before I jailbroke/rooted/anything. No GPS at all on stock VRALJB. Looks like I'll be doing an insurance replacement here in the near future. Don't know what else I can do.
I had to go back to stock, but it worked. I got a GPS. Then I rooted and stopped there. Five minutes later I busted the screen, so I will report with my new phone tomorrow.

Did what I do be overkill?......yep. But I got GPS lock back. (also flashed Faux kernal and kept lock)

If you're willing to try something switch to global mode reboot and try gps again. You may need to use an app like pimp my rom. You'll most likely lose data. This works on moon rom, obviously this makes the rom unusable for anything phone related until you switch back to lte which losses gps. If anyone is willing to try this let me know if it worked for you. I'm trying to figure out why some of us are affected with this weird issue.

I had the same problem, tried every fix I could find, nothing worked. Finally unrooted back to stock and then got a GPS lock. Then rerooted and haven't had any issues on any rom thus far

Hi all I been wanting to use the Touchwiz Jedi 14 ROM for a while now. Only problem is no matter what I do I cannot get GPS to lock. When I open maps the GPS icon doesn't show up showing its searching. I have to open navigation to see its searching. I have downloaded this ROM 4 times, each time to try something new. Does anyone have any advice? I really want to run this ROM, but I gotta have GPS. Any help or direction is always appreciated.

That worked for you? I tried that once with no luck. I will give it another try though. I just loaded pacman and was about to set it up. Thanks for your input.

Yes It worked for me....I flashed stock rom and turned on gps, got a lock and went directly into recovery and flashed jedi, worked right away!! Hopefully it will work for you also

Also if that don't work. ...try the gps quick fix under jedi rom tricks
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda premium
I tried the quick fix before with no luck. Gonna give the lock and switch a go once more, maybe without a wipe. I really hope I can get a lock. GPS is very important to me. I love the way Jedi looks and runs. Just enough customization for my taste.

Any luck?! If that dont work I would maybe try jedi 13 and see if gps works, I installed it on acouple friends phones and gps worked on both right away. Just an option....

Jedi ROMS and GPS
I have flashed several Jedi ROMS over the last two years and I have always gone back to stock for the sole purpose of GPS. I have tried all the fixes and none of them have ever resolved the problem for me. I like many others LOVE the Jedi ROMS but require GPS to function as well as it does on stock ROM. When a GPS fix that is solid comes around, I will be right back on Jedi. I would love it if someone could find and honest clean resolution for this issue.

I feel you man. Definitely feel the same way. I have heard of several Verizon Jedi users getting there lock, but not me. I have tried everything I know to try at least 5 times each (literally). I am in the same boat as you, gotta have my GPS working. I am gonna keep trying with each new update though.

Hey everyone. I have attempted to build a working flex ROM for Verizon g2. Had a bootable ROM but had no working 4g data. Attempted to make ROM work with appropriate files to get data working but now it won't boot. Why. I don't know. I have asked for help from other builders for all the other variants with no response from them except for a very general point in the proverbial direction to no avail. @MicroMod777 of the awesome digital dream ROM in the Verizon forum has assisted me as well as @krazie1. @T.C.P and @Jeff Zaugg. So basically I am looking for someone to help resolve our issues. I would even be willing to come up with donations accordingly for time and knowledge to resolve these issues or even to just build a working ROM to share with the masses. Thank you all in advance for your time. ROM ON!!!!!

I don't even have my bootable base anymore. Forgot to make copy before I started modding it to get data working. Unfortunately I got work tomorrow. If I can get an uploaded bootable ROM then I can work on what isn't working. Sure wish there was a android kitchen for lg g2 to attempt doing this the way I would prefer. Plus this is effectively the first ROM in which I am doing this. Usually just editing and modding other Roms for myself. Hope I'm not biting of more than I can chew.

Its OK. Hopefully this thread gets some juices going on getting this ROM done.
If anyone has a booting ROM with either a data or phone issue please upload so we can collectively try to solve the issue.

Can anyone give me an idea of what has been tried thus far? I figured I would try to help since everyone was asked but me. Unless the reason nobody asked me is because you don't want my help. Lmao
I've got it booted on my phone and have data working, but phone is broke and contacts fc every once and a while

We started with a flex ROM and changed boot img libs/modules. Etc /permissions pertaining to Verizon also a build prop edited for it. Basically got a booting ROM with no data. Originally that was with tangjuns ROM. Then I tried starfighters and couldn't get it to boot. Now one of us is trying rayglobe. But we would defiantly love to have your help to get this off the ground. I asked in your thread about a Verizon version of aeon flux. Just trying to get some of these great Roms for our phones. You guys do great work and obviously help each other out. I am the new guy that chose this as my first project. Thanks for all you can do.

So then you also replaced the LGContacts.apk? Did it stop the random FC?
Till tomorrow. Got work. Good luck

Some of you said you were having trouble getting the flex Rom to boot.
These are the steps i've taken:
In Android Development there is a thread by Tangjun269.
On page 13 of thread is a rom called Flex_Rayglob.zip 952.3 mb
I downloaded this rom it's got Gapps baked in and has the ugly black around the icons removed witch I think looks better.
I use root explorer to extract rom then I replaced these items from any one (your choice) of the stock rooted 12b builds in the Verizon section:
Extracting each one from 12b and dropping into extracted flex rom.
Boot.ing
META-INF
etc/apns-conf.xml
Lib/modules
Now zip rom, boot into recovery back up and flash.

No go tried contacts and phone.
if we can get these two jars to framework and actually boot, it might work.
/framework/com.verizon.settings.jar"/>
/framework/com.verizon.phone.jar"/>
everytime i flash them, or push them, the phone wont boot :/
I think we might have more luck if we disabled signature checks. That might be causing issues of being able to switch the apks over. I don't remember if you disable this In android policy.jar or services.jar
