The GPS in my particular phone will ONLY work on Touchwiz 2.3.6, which gets a lock in seconds. On any other rom, be it Touchwiz ICS 4.04 or Pac-Man Jellybean... the GPS will not find even a single satellite in GPS Test. I can't really stick with Gingerbread since there are features that I need in Jellybean. I have tried nearly everything... from the EL29 tempboot to all those flashable GPS "fixes". So.. Help?

Read, search and read some more.
Then search and read some more.
This is a known issue.
I've personally have posted and written about it plenty of times over the past few months along with dozens of other people.
Search is your friend.

You should try Exit_Only's GPS tweak zip. It helped me out a lot.

I have already tried this, among a few other zips... Not working.

I have searched for almost a MONTH and still no solution. Guess my phone is just special.:p
