Hi,
most of my GPS Fix issues seems to be resolved by replacing the lineageos time settings by the app clocksync.
It will be verified soon during a trip.
Best regards,

no worries. this is not another "my gps doesn't work thread". it's a question thread.
My gps finally started working with Auxura 2.1 and JL1 radio.
My question is why. what causes all the GPS problem? why when I change to another rom (Nero, for example) the GPS stops working. if it's working for me - it means that the problem is 100% software and not hardware. so what exactly causes it and why fixing it is so complicated and take so much effort and time (for example the lousy gps restore application from samsung)
thanks
OK, so Im having issues with the stock version of Honeycomb. Always losing GPS lock.
I was thinking what if I got one of these

Wonder if that would solve the issue
I've followed the GPS fix guide by djelloul on the elephone forum, which in short does rebuild the internal GPS chip data with a new geographical reference point. That seemed to have worked for a while. But only temporarily. Again the GPS in the P9000 has become useless!
On a 300 mile journey, 70% of the time Google Maps in a state of "searching for GPS"
Any suggestions to get a more permanent fix?
ROM: 20170112
This has been a kinda ongoing thing with the P9000, my GPS has always kinda been temperamental. I've tried many fixes both from here and the Elephone forum, different ROMs, I havent tried to opening the phone up fix but have tried the software fixes (btw if you haven't tried the Elephone Forum fix by djelloul see this: http://bbs.elephone.hk/thread-11201-1-1.html#.WKoUuvmLSUk )
I have used the GPS Status & Toolbox, used the MTK Toolbox to reset compass & applied the available fixes, but although they work initially.. its tends to be a temporary fix only. I have always had the GPS Status & Toolbox installed since I bought my p9000 back in April 2016, as it did seem to improve it slightly. although I still used to get "searching for GPS" just as you get and it was a constant irritation.
As I use GPS daily in my work, I was at the point (as much as I love my P9000 so much) buying a OnePlus3T
I must add that I did change to the 7 Nougat Beta very recently and have no idea why, but now for the first time my GPS works great (and without GPS ToolBox) so I'm kinda waiting for release of the stable nougat and fingers crossed it remains working as it is now on my Beta, failing that I guess I may have to move to the OnePlus
wait until 7.0 maybe they fix GPS
SEE POST #4 FOR MY FIX
Got Phone a few days ago and have been trying a few ROMs. Across the board with all ROMs I seem to have GPS issue. I use GPS Status and Toolbox to see when my GPS has found enough satellites to acquire my location...then I can run Google Maps/Navigation.
Is there a fix for this? I'll take any information I can get.
Thanks

Try it.
I wrote permissions to rw-r--r--
Didn't work
Tried dailing *#*#46360000#*#* and then just disable/re-emable background resource control option.
I tried that with reboots between every step?
No luck?. The GPS works just once then not again. On every ROM I've tried.
Edit: flashed MODEM 419D. Will test. 1st test good a couple miles away, but first run always is good after a flash. Will update if this modem fixes problem for good.
Edit ² - FIXED (so I thought) Flashing modem fixed GPS (& BT headset) issue. Multiple Reboots and tests confirmed.
Modem(s) found here: (under developer)

Edit ³ - by 4:30pm GPS stopped working. Re-Flashed modem and still no GPS lock again.
First, Thanks to Faith27, as that was a close solution to my problem. Changing my GPS.conf file was a good solution to my issue. However, GPS locking can be narrowed down to your physical location. My GPS locking is pretty quick now. I changed my GPS.conf file according to THIS article with preconfigured GPS.conf downloadable files and I am finally happy with my Le Max 2 as GPS is a necessity.
Nice, I 'll try on mine. Mine doesn't found any location at all, just maybe the wifi on the streets. But I'm too sad to give up.
Hello world,
I have the A52 5G in Belgium. Have all the updates installed, seems that my GPS is not fixing anymore so Waze and Maps can't work.
I downloaded an app to test the GPS, but the same problem appear, an issue with gps fixing.
Does anyone have already experienced that issue?
Thanks
What you mean by "fixing"?
Send some screen shots or screen recording.
No fix means it has not received enough satellites or a good enough reception to get a fix and establish location
