GPS Fails to Lock (SCH-I535)
First of all, thank you to SBreen for your hard work on this ROM!
I just updated to RLS16 (standard kernel) hoping that it would fix my GPS and google Maps issues, but no luck so far. Below are the methods I have tried in my attempt to fix the GPS:
1) Clean ROM install (four times) including formatting all user/system data, wiping Dalvik cache, etc.
2) Fix Permissions from Clockwork Recovery (countless times)
3) Clearing all app data for google applications, including deleting velvet.apk from system and re-installing through the play store (and using standalone .apks)
4) Tightening the screws on the back of my S3
5) Enabling all location service providers
6) Removing Hyperdrive and restoring to the original ROM (yuck!) restores GPS functionality, so I know it's not physically broken.
I love everything about this ROM with the sole exception of the lack of GPS functionality. Google Maps is currently unusable, and GPS Status will run for hours without acquiring a lock, even with the phone in a stationary position in high-reception areas.
Any help on this issue is greatly appreciated, thanks!
