Telus note 3, using it in Toronto, same here suffering GPS blinking lock/unlock in split second, tried all fixes I can find from xda, even updating modem and baseband last night to PG1 still the same. I also think it must be something incompatible with MM Roms because it was fine with stock rom...

For my own experience, after changing the build model number to SM-A710F, the battery drain a lot faster. I checked on the CPU temperature were always above 57 degree, and all the cores runing quite crazy, at least for my phone. I have 9008w, the Canadian model. After switching back to SM-N920C...
