GPS not detected... SOLVED!
Dear bauner,
Firstly, thank u so much for ur effort and devotion towards the N7000 development. Ur work has revived my old sluggish N7000 and now snappy and feels like a brand new phone.
However, there was one thing that I couldn't figure out.. the GPS. It has not worked since the day I flashed the new rom. I tried to clean format, wiped all the cache and dalvik, installed the CM13 but GPS wasn't working. Reformatted then tried CM12, same thing. Then I start from scratch and decided to stay with CM13 despite having no GPS.
Then, I read the 'Speed Up Satellite Fix for GPS' thread and gave it a try. Unfortunately, the GPS still doesn't work. I almost gave up, but last night I googled and read this particular thread.. it was regarding a few files from the /data/gps folder that needed to be deleted. So, I deleted all the files in that folder. Rebooted, run the GPS Status and Toolbox app, selected the 'manage A-GPS > reset' followed by 'manage A-GPS > download', and guess what..... MY GPS FINALLY WORKED!!!!! Immediately, it tracked a few satellites and fixed within a few seconds!
Just wanted to share incase anyone had similar situation after flashing. Hope it helps.
