GPS lock

---

Hey, munjeni.

Is there a known issue with very slow GPS lock (I'm located in southeastern Pennsylvania in US)? I've read through the entire thread and saw a couple of posts very early on in the development of this ROM regarding GPS, but nothing too much since then.

When I start up Google Maps, Google Navigation, Endomondo, or just about any other application that uses GPS for determining location, it seems like the first lock takes 3-5 minutes. Once I have the initial lock in one app, it locks on almost instantly when I start another app.

What is odd is that I downloaded "GPS Status & Toolbox" by EclipSim to test GPS functionality and when I start the app, it locks onto 6-10 satellites within about 2-3 seconds. So, it seems that the GPS itself is working fine, but other apps are having a hard time locking on.

Any thoughts or ideas? Thanks in advance.

P.S. - Everything else in this ROM just rocks, by the way!

I have the same experience. It has to have something to do with the A-GPS data because GPS Status & Toolbox downloads this automatically, giving you the fast locks with that application alone. That is why I don't use that app as an indicator of initial lock time.

This worked great. it clearly says the hboot has been upgraded. Turned the phone off and booted into recovery and got a phone with a red triangle and an exclamation point...so...am i going to have to go through the steps to reroot my aria...or is this a problem with S-on? Let me know where to go from here.

That red exclamation mark is the stock recovery. You need to now flash CWM recovery.

You need to install CWM again, like themacman1000 said. But you need to run Revolutionary first. The full process is this:

1) Use Revolutionary. This will give you S-OFF.
2) Install CWM by downloading Android Flasher and this version of CWM (this is the latest version available now). Run Android Flasher and flash the img file to your phone as a recovery.
3) You're done, but still have an unrooted ROM because this process does not modify your stock ROM. Go into recovery to flash the ROM of your choice.
