Hi guys, I wonder if anyone could help me with this problem.
The phone I'm using right now is Samsung Galaxy SII (GT-I9100G). Android 4.2.2. Using Avatar ROM 2.14b.
Ever since I rooted and did a custom ROM to my phone, the GPS seems not working well. For example, when I use Sygic Navigator, under Hardware settings where you can see the GPS satellites, it doesn't show any. And there is no GPS signal at all. Weird. Is it because the issues of the ROM I'm using? Because I've changed from using ParanoidAndroid 2 to Avatar ROM just because I wanna see if there is any fix on the GPS issue. Sadly, no.
One more problem I had is the calibration issue. I started noticing this problem when I'm playing Doodle Jump. When I started the game, it doesn't jumping straight up, instead it jumped to the left, always to the left. I don't know if both problems are related to each other.
So, anyone got any idea how to fix these problems?
EDIT: The term I should be using for the 'calibration' is the gyroscope. It seems like Avatar ROM has removed this option the settings.
EDIT 2: GPS Status app always showing Looking for GPS location... even after I reset and redownload the A-GPS Xtra Data.
Theres a gps fix on rootbox thread somewhere. Im sure it can be used on all 4.2.2 roms. Have a look there mate.
Also gps fix on playsore may solve it. Have a look test them and report bk to what works to help others. :thumbup:

Okay I *finally* got it worked. I just have to reset the factory settings.
So, for those who have the same problem, I'd suggest you to sync all the data, backup your apps and do some recheck on your files if something have missed out. Then only you can do the factory reset, this will rest everything in your phone including your installed apps. It will reverted back to the default settings.
You can also do the factory reset in the recovery mode.
After reset, you can download GPS Status app to test your GPS locking.
I can now
Good day,
I been having this problem for a while now (no idea when it began because it appears randomly)
It has been happening more often lately though.
- Galaxy s4 i9505
- rooted
- 4.2.2
I would activate wifi or it would even be on still but i cannot use "most" of the internet.
I will say which things do work.
-searching on google play
-receiving mail
-browser (very slow)
-9gag (text only)
So updating and most of the apps dont work but some text based stuff appears slow.
Rebooting my galaxy S4 fixes this problem but it is ofcoarse very annoying to always have to reboot.
I have tried several "wifi fixers" from google play but none of them fix the problem.
Does anyone know what the problem might be and how to solve it?
Thank you very much
Any Ideas?? Again GPSD sucking up my battery, Just did a Factory Reset and nothing. Same problem on my I-9300
Did you turned on gps / location?
I had this issue with my Note 2. Probably an application is causing the issue.

How did you do your reset? If you're willing to try it again, I suggest using Odin to bring it back to total stock which will leave nothing from any ROM on your device.
Update: I found this link that seems worth a read. It seems to be an application requesting fine location; it would most likely be something you installed at some point.

Yeap.. and disable samsungs remote control and uninstall google talk and google music
Installed XtreStoLite rom on my SM-G900H and deleted most of the apps but still the same. **** samsung!
Try settings GPS to power saving mode in settings. I've never had this problem on my phone. Besides even without your problem, having GPS to high accuracy is bad for the battery life.
If nothing works, enable USB Debugging in Developer Options and flash latest KK firmware available (I'm on it) with Odin.
Maybe you are enabling remote device
Today I switch on mobile data using the toggle in notification area and the turn off after some usage. Later on, I tried to turn on again and the toggle disappeared? How do I make it show up again? No software update was done.
EXTRA information : Phone is completely stock. Never rooted it.

Oh I just notice hot spot toggle missing as well. Good to know I'm not alone. Hope to see some solution soon.
yep on carhd custom rom and mine disappeared overnight too?? bizarre?
any fix available please?
thanks
I thought I was the only one
I was about to create a thread about this, especially on my devices it's not only the Mobile Data and Mobile Hotspot missing, but quite a few and it's really annoying, I was thinking that maybe after gaining root and changing the build prop settings for better multitasking caused this or maybe the mod I applied that removed the S-finder and Quick Connect buttons, did any of you guys make this modifications, check my attached screenshothot to see how worse mine is I was even thinking of going back to stock
Also I had a backup on Flashfire and when I restored it, everything was back to normal buy after some few minutes the issue is back again
Holy **** I thought I was going nuts !
Same problem here in Switzerland, Int. version. No update, nothing but during this night the toggle disapeared. I have no idea what's going on.
Same In France
grooted s6 edge not rooted
This is how it was before
I just restored the flashfire backup to see how it was before, check this
So you not rooted and facing the same issue?? If yes then it means that my assumptions we're wrong that it's probably because of the modifications I explained on my first post above

Not rooted, same issue sadly
ive got new button in place...Network restriction? but it cuts out everything data wise..like airplane mode- but you cannot put wifi on afterwards??
mines rooted but not changed anythting at all since rom install. its just removed by itself
Didn't have the time to look much into it but without any software update could it be related to Google Play Service ? I mean, I don't see how they could remotly remove it from us ?
Fix
Same thing here, no data toggle.
I fixed it through sqlite editor. I added MobileData and changed the number of active toggles.
Updated OP to mention I did not root
Wow. Seem like a lot of people having this issue. Interesting. All occur at once. How does this happen.
Should we wait or do a Factory Reset ?
This is a common issue since today. Something happened 6-7 hrs back causing this issue.
The big question is "what's the fix" ?
Since mine is an unlocked non-carrier International version, I am sure this is not a T-Mobile or Verizon issue.
Is there a way to contact someone in Samsung about this problem ?
Will a FACTORY RESET solve the issue ?
Any ideas ?
Has anyone tried a factory reset yet, I'm facing the same problem, some of my toggles are just gone. Not rooted, factory unlocked, so I have no idea what's going on.

Same here..it suddenly disappeared. Mine is on stock rom, not rooted. Latest software AOE3. Please advise how to recover the data toggle in the notification area/quick toggles.
This must be some time booming bugs!
Mine fully stock no root from Malaysia also missing few toggle today.
When I try to open Do Not Disturb in the notification settings, it just crashes. It also crashes in safe mode. I've wiped the cache, but no dice. Has anyone had this issue? I've only had this phone for 3 days, and this is about the 4th issue I've had with it. It's kinda ridiculous.
No issue for me, S21+ with march security patch.

I also got the problem after restoring my S21 from a backup of my pixel 4. You have to reset the settings app to fix it. Search for „reset settings“ in the settings app.

I ended up returning the S21 for an S21 Ultra, but I'll keep this in mind if it happens again.
