Hi,
I've got some problems with the gps, it finds about 21 sattelites but doesn't connect to 1. I know MTK isn't that strong on GPS but anyone faced the same problem and what can we do to prevent it?

Hi, Schumi_wk

I'm facing similar problems
Sorry the phone is already sold. But i didn't get it working.

I have a couple of these and have a problem with GPS on both.
The problem is that the GPS will not find/lock on to any satellites - continually 'searching for location'.
Has anyone any experience of this issue on these clones, or better still, does anyone know any solutions to fix the problem.
Thanks.
Hi all. I have just received an iNew V8... seems to be a great phone. Only thing I'm having trouble with is getting a GPS lock. The phone supports AGPS but not EPO. Sits there forever with 0/12 satellites...
Anyone else with one of these like to share their GPS experience?

The iNew V8 I've played with does not have problems with its GPS. It locks rather quickly. Are you by chance trying to GPS lock while indoors?
I solved the problem. The GPS antenna seems to be the one at lower left when the phone back is off. There is a ribbon extension that passes through to the circuits underneath. I pressed down on that and made sure the ribbon was pushed well into the gap, assuming a connector beneath. Whatever I did cured the problem as it began working well and hasn't missed a beat since.

no use your cellular network for a faster fix
Moto Z has never had a "fantastic" wifi connectivity (with some issues with dhcp too, see my thread about it...), but anyway it worked... since some weeks ago!
Then, without any change in sw (I'm still on MM, rooted and with Xposed), it begins to be unable to connect to quite any 2.4 GHz wifi available (5 GHz connectivity seems to be unaffected) :crying:
It finds networks, then, if I ask to connect them (even on open and not encrypted and not mac filtered wifi networks) it will try to connect for a second, then it returns to "saved" state. After some trying it goes in "error connecting network" status.
Obviously ALL my other android devices connect fine in same conditions and even my Moto Z connected fine before the issue came out.
Only in isolated places with a SINGLE wifi SOMETIMES is able to connect... but I am talking of distances of 2-3 meters from router, not more....
I've already tried to "forget" all networks, to restore wifi defaults, to clear cache & dalvik and tried some "wifi repairing apps" too, with no results. On Lenovo forum I saw some had the same issue and even a factory reset didn'the solve for them.
I think even BT is having same issue, but I'm not sure... (I don't use it a lot....).
Any idea? Others with same issue?
@erfanoabdi no idea about this?
I also Have the same problem. and my request to Lenovo please solve this issue as soon as possible.

I begin to think that it's a hardware issue, since even bluetooth seems to be affected as well.
Weird is that networks are anyway detected and with regular dB levels too...
One user on Lenovo forum reported that this began for him when he had the memory of the phone full over 90% and for me it has about been the same bit I think this could be only a coincidence...

Hi, i had this problem too and I think its definitely a hardware issue. I think Lenovo just has some quality assurance issues in the production and you and i just had the luck of getting a defective unit.
I'm really happy that i still had warranty when that happened. The main board on mine was switched, so i guess its not even an wifi/bluetooth antenna issue.

But what channel are you on? From what I've gathered it's only retapac right now.
No more having this?
Mine (just before been destroyed by assistance center trying to change battery... ) had begun to not be able to connect (if not sometimes...) on 5 GHz networks too... it definitely seems an hardware issue...
i have the same problem, no wifi and bluetooth. Anybody tried flashing modem?
Losing connection happens mostly when connected to 5GHz, can't find a way to force connection to 2.4GHz.
hello guys, i got here a Blackview BV4900 with a probelm of wifi and bluetooth. I think the chipset is damaged but not sure, it says unavailable mac adress and ip for both wifi and bluetooth
Tried reseting wifi and nothing also i tried Factory rest and the same problem keep showing that Bluetooth does´t responding. is there any soultion or as i said in the first Chipset is gone. Hope ypu help and share and idea if you have (The phone is for work and probably everyday a diffrent human working with, cause there is more than 200 to scan some QR codes and i think someone droped it) thx in advanced
Maybe the antenna inside the phone detached from the fall. I don't know the construction of this phone. Just an idea. Does the GPS work in airplane mode?
