Hi all

I am running mahdi 0823 all else stock

Seem to be having issues with Google maps. Sometimes it locks on, but then loses GPS signal very often. Or it won't lock on at all.

I have tried other modems but it doesn't seem to help much.

Does anyone else have GPS related issues ?
And is there any known fix for it ?

Thanks in advance and have a great weekend

I was having GPS signal issues with the stock CM11s and Franco kernal. I switched to PA with Franco Kernal and now get good locks. Maybe it is a rom issue?

Try Faster GPS from the Play Store.

Try setting your network mode to 2G and see if it works that way

Can you please explain the reasoning behind this?

It works for me, don't know why, that's what I'm trying to find out.
Did it work for you?

I don't have any issues with my GPS, I was just wondering.

I am having a GPS issue with stock CM11 44s. It works after a restart, but will stop working after a day. If I use a GPS status app, I see that it doesn't see any satellites in view at all. It's like the radio is completely dead, but then after a restart, everything is fine.

Same thing happening here. Losses satellite connection after a while. If I restart my phone it works fine.

Anyone found a fix yet? Mine also losses GPS fix after a while which is unfortunate because I use it as a sports tracker and it's useless if it doesn't work like it should.

I've tried CM11, CM11S, CM12, CM12.1, oxygen OS, some other ROMs any many custom kernels without any result.

It sees satellites, it connects, but can't get fix somehow.
