GPS DEAD

---

I am on FlexReaper, changed my server to Austria via FastGPS, using WiFi, have a clear view to the sky for more than 25min....I have tried everything!
The saddest thing is that my A100 does not see even a single satellite! Is there a manual way to reinstall the GPSs driver or check if it is faulty?
Please help me, I am desperate!

You should have posted this in the FlexReaper thread it is one thread above. Or the general section.

Have you tried the GPS fix? I had to reinstall it manually after I did a reset. it's just an lto.dat file that goes into /data/gps IIRC. Also GPS status is an app that is included with Flexreaper it can be useful to see what is going on with your GPS reception.

This link has the info

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1636757

and has eww245 said if you are able to you should post this kind of stuff into the Flexreaper thread.

Sorry for the wrong place! Could you remove or move it?
As I have already installed RF1 and the patch is included then I have no luck with it as well. Could you please tell me how to manually do it? There is nothing clear in the theme you have posted and I am NO pro!
Thank you

I have downloaded first the patch but it said errr already patched? Then I have downloaded and copied the lto.dat file.
Still NOT even a single satelite!
Should I make resets,formats?

Did you reboot the device after putting the ito.dat file into /data/gps? Mine went from almost never getting a sync up when using Navigator app to always working(still takes a min or two when I first enable GPS) but then it works like a charm. In fact the battery on my old Nuvi w200 finally gave out on me so I'm using my tablet as navigator all the time now.( still need to find/make a good mount for it) and does GPS status show any satalites? Also GPS Status(the app) also has some features inside the menu that will reset some stuff that might help. GL wish I had more things to suggest. If non of this works I'm guessing you may have a harware issue with your GPS, but I don't have enough info to be sure of that.

Is "Use Internal GPS" selected under "Settings > Location services"? I don't know how, but last time I flashed a rom it wasn't selected, nothing was, so when I tried to use the GPS it would obviously fail.

Don't know how common that is, but sometimes stupid little things like that can give us the worst headaches.

Sure, What I did was look inside /data/gps on the tablet and I didnt see ito.dat. So I extracted the ito.dat out of the Flexreaper ROM .zip. You will find the file inside data/gps within the .zip file also. Take this file and copy it to /data/gps on the tablet. This can be done via root explorer, script manager etc, or via a terminal.
Assuming you extract the ito.zip from the .zip and place it into a micro sdcard and the root of the card, the following command would work to copy it via terminal emulator.

su
cp /mnt/external_sd/ito.dat /data/gps/ito.dat

It may or may not fix what ever issue you are having but it's worth a try and easy enough to do.

If you are on latest flex-A100-reaper , type in terminal.
Su (enter) gps-update( enter) and this will update your lto file for gps.
Normally it is done automaticly.
But all this information is in OP of flrexreaper.

Development?
