[Q] GPS Broken - Motorola Droid RAZR

Hi All,
My Phone can't seem to locate ANY satellites in either my Stock ROM or Custom ROM (I use SS)..
I've tried the standard update AGPS fix and still got nothing.
I always thought it was my custom ROMs that just had buggy GPS but seeming as the stock doesn't either, I'm not sure what the issue is.
Any suggestions on how to fix this issue are appreciated!

A couple of months back somebody with the same device as you had the exact same issue. I suggested to RSDlite and GPS issue was solved. I know they had a difficult time figuring out how to re root but it was done with a little research. This was the only solution. I hope this is helpful for you!!

Excellent, I'm glad there seems to be a solution! It's a bit of a pain in the ass though

It is a great idea to do this from time to time. You never know what gets left behind when you are flashing custom stuff

Google Maps wont rotate?

Like it says. I have looked all through my settings and found nothing to resolve it. The issue is when I am moving my map will not make the direction I am travelling point up. It used to do this when I was running GB. But since getting onto ICS it wont do it. Any suggestions or questions to help would be fine. Thank you for your help in advance.

The compass is broke in ICS for the fascinate, until it is fixed this issue will exist.
Well that sucks. Its better than 2.3 so I will have to deal with it. Hopefully them super smart folks at AOKP will fix it before to long.

I drive for a living and that is one of the reasons I flashed ICS on my fassy.
Google navigation always crashed and froze on 2.3 for me.
Now I'm back to Froyo until the voice dialer is fixed in ICS. Can't hear the damn thing plus there is no confirmation .
My voice dial works fine. What ICS are you running? Also have you tried a different kernel?
The map rotation finally works. It took going to AOKP Build 34 and IcyGlitch V14-B6 for it to finally go. Thank goodness.

[Q] Razr No Connection

Ok I have tried everything I can think of so I am coming to you guys for help. My razr maxx keeps power cycling. It is not rooted and it is on ICS. It has a red little circle where the signal bars are. I have turned on and off airplane mode. I have done probably 4 hard wipes both manually and by going to through the settings of the phone. I don't know what is wrong with it or what I can do to fix it. I wanted to know if flashing the ICS update on there manually would help fix this? Any help would be very appreciated.
Thanks
If worse comes to worse you can manually install the .214 leak (if on cdma) go to droidrzr.com click forums find development and there's a upgrade guide and I believe u can downgrade to .211 if wanted.

I'm having the same problem, started last night (I started a thread about it last night). I haven't been able to fix it yet.

Help with MIUI

what up everybody? I figured I'd come here to seek out some help for this huge problem I have...
Over in the Droid razr forums, we have an "MIUI port" and to be honest...its crap. Data drops and only way to fix is with a reflash, no 3g on newer versions of it, lag in the older versions with 3g, auto brightness problems, pretty sure there's some themeing issues also...
Anyways, the dev for the rom claims he's hard at work but the last time he updated the rom was in June. So I was wondering if anyone could share with me some info on how to fix some of these problems. I wanna take this on myself since obviously nobody else is. Biggest problem is getting 3g...3g worked on the older version but you would have to go into the phone info app and toggle the radio then change network type every time u restart the phone... so I want to get atleast 3g on the smooth running version on the rom. I have no clue where to start, that's why I'm here..
So to anyone that can help, me and the Droid razr community thanks you.

unable to get gps to lock

Update: nevermind, i just flashed back to the rooted stock rom amd gps is working correctly..i guess i'm done with custom roms..they don't work as well as stock =).
Hey guys, I am currently running the black star xi rom. I'm having trouble getting my gps to lock. I have used the tools available in the system setting to install the att gps config and stock gps config, but both of those don't lock the gps when i running navigation. So, im unable to get voice navigation going. I would have posted this on the black star xi thread...but i don't meet the 10 posts requirement to post there.

Haven't had any issues with really anything but the new camera not showing on SOA build 3. I was on Padawan v8 which was a really stable and nice and fast rom. No GPS issues ever and do not seem to have any on this new rom I just installed yesterday. Hopefully the official JB will be out soon we'll see.
For some reason none of the AOSP or AOKP ROMs (which sadly is a majority of them) work very well for the Note GPS. The only ROMs I have found with good GPS support for the NOTE have been either Stock ROMs or custom ROMs which were derived from a Stock ROM.

Good to know. Which is why I guess Padawan v8 was so stable for me. Thanks for that info.

Honestly it kills me too. I LOVE the new features on ROMs like JellyBeer and other CyanogenMod types, but I'm a nerd and use GPS everyday, and it keeps pushing me back to the other ROMs for the GPS performance.

I understand that. Probably fixing to switch back to Padawan v8 if I cannot get the new camera options to work properly in SOA build 3.
Well idk if i should ask here or put a new thread sorry im such a noob! But i have the same problem but with ebery singls rom at this point! Even stock. Ive tried flashing radios, gps test apps to remove agps data, and almost every fix i could find but none work! I even flash from rom to rom the weurd thing is its just navigationaps can locate me easily as well as any app needing my location. Help? Please and thank you.

Maybe start by reposting your issue so others can understand it. If I understand what you wrote, you have the same problem but your navigation apps locate you easily. And that doesn't make sense. Are you trying your GPS outside??
Srry i type fast n misspelle loll (idk how to spell misspelle) okay so wat i meant was that the only app that just keeps sayin "searchin for gps" is the navigation app. The maps app pinpoints my location easily as dies fb n any other app requesting my location. Ive tried every fix i could find on the web and nothing has worked for me! Ive seen fixes with flashing a stock gb radio it didnt work. The gps test app fix didnt work. Ive flashed countless roms from gb to jb n still same issue. N yes im outside ive even been on the roof! (seriously ive been up there am terrified of heiqhts n was stuck for hours didnt think it throuqh lol) thnx for any help.

[Q] Losing Bluetooth Across ROMs

I've been having this issue since I first flashed a LiquidSmooth ROM a couple months back, but as I've installed official CM10.1 and AOKP roms, the issue has persisted across them. Currently I have Avatar 2.13b on slot 1, AOSP r6 on slot 2 and LiquidSmooth 2.4 in slot 3 and the problem exists on all 3. Bluetooth will work fine on an initial flash, but a some point later on, it disables itself, and the only way to get it back is to wipe dalvik and reboot. Is this simply an instability of the kexec kernel, or something more. I've seen a few posts related to this, but not enough that it seems like a common issue. Any one else having this problem or any thoughts on why its happening to my RAZR MAXX xt912? Wiping dalvik isn't a huge inconvenience, as I typically only use BT to and from work, but after a long day in the office, not being able to connect my headphones can just add to my frustrations. Any thoughts or help is greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!
Did you ever make any progress on this problem? I'm having a similar, tho not identical, BT problem . . . posted it, hoping to get some idea how to approach it. Thanks
Sorry, no luck yet. Happened today while sitting idle at my desk, no reboot, not even being used. If I run into a solution on another site, I'll update this post

Too bad. I was hoping to piggyback, or at least get some insight.
I like to think I'm not an idiot, but short of changing hardware I can't think of anything new to even try.
