Hello all, I just had a question. I've installed the manila2.5.20121324.1 on my tp2 cdma ( verizon) My location weather worked for a few days, then got stuck on one location i was in. I thought it was a glitch, i never updated, so I reinstalled the rom and my location weather never works, the other weird thing is that if i add a city, i can get the weather for that. Any ideas? I have my phone set up the way i like it... i'm hoping that this problem can be fixed short of loading another rom. any help would be appreciated.

I originally posted this in the thread for Dutty's 4/29 release, but I've since had it happen in other cooked WM6.1 ROMs so I figured it should be moved out to it's own thread.
When I try to start up Garmin (installs fine), I get the splash screen and then it completely quits before anything else shows up. A few other XDA members have mentioned that they don't have problems and pointed towards checking the software that I have installed. So I did a hard reset, installed Garmin first, and then tested it after every piece of software that I installed.
It worked fine everytime so I thought it maybe just needed to be installed first to workaround any other conflicts. I happily started setting everything else up thinking that I was good to go. After I ran KaiserTweak, Schap's Advanced Config, and changed some stuff in the standard settings options, I tested Garmin again. This time, back to the original problem.
The only setting that I can think of that should matter is aGPS, but that doesn't seem to make a difference and the program quits before it even makes any indication that it's ready to touch the GPS receiver.
I'm going to keep messing with settings and stuff to see what I can find, but I figured I'd document it here for anyone else as well as see if anyone has any ideas on what settings it could be.
This is really driving me nuts.

I am sending files right now.
Awesome. Thanks so much.
I'll try it out when I get home from work tonight and post back here.
Garmin Mobile XT version 4.20.50 is out
For those with Garmin Mobile XT, you can download the update from the Garmin website at
http://www8.garmin.com/support/download_details.jsp?id=3389.
It does not have the voice, help or basemap files, so this will not help you if you are trying to warez the software. You must already be an owner.
This version works great with WM 6.1, as I travel frequently and it has not had a problem with any of the 6.1 ROMs I have tried.
Good luck!

Thanks.I just installed update over my previous version 4.20.30 and I can confirm that works just fine.
Just installed the updated version and I"m still having the same exact problem.
Actually, now about 10 seconds after it quits, I get an error message that pops up saying "Data type misalignment at Program addess 0x03F94E04 in background thread NULL (Main InitInstance)"
Didn't get that before.
Im really desperate because I cant use the GPS device on my Jade for a month now! No application is able to use the GPS device on my phone.
If I try IGO as example it always says "no gps device found". I tryed HTC GPS tool and switched all ports on but no luck anyway...
If I try port 3 with baudrate 57600 it opens somehow but nothing happens. If I close it again it gives me an error message saying "WaitCommEvent failed.."
There is also a issue with QuickGPS, it cant uptade anymore. Everytime I click uptade it says immidiatly "error connecting, please try again later"
Im totally punshed and have no clue what to do anymore. And please avoid answers like "do hardware reset or send to warranty"
Thanks in advanche
is nobody able to help me?
Are you using stock or cooked rom? If cooked, it may be ur radio that is making ur GPS not work, so give us more info.
Also when did it stop working, had you just installed some software etc?
You will see many people say different configurations regarding baud rates etc, personally i recommend that you leave it configured to "let windows control".
If your quick gps is not updating, then a cold gps lock could take upto 10 mins. Go out side, get google maps on screen (remember to configure both external gps & google maps to "let windows.....") and ensure google maps is set to use gps. Then wait and wait to see if u get a gps lock or not.
Get back with more info on rom, software ok?
Cheers.
Thanks for the reply!
Im using the original stock rom for my Touch 3g (jade). I dont think I installed any (important) software before my GPS failed. My GPS is controlled by Windows and yes I already tryed setting them manually up without luck.
The 10min outside thing also didnt worked
Man thats wierd, you say that quick gps doesnt work either?
Have a look through your software additions and give me a list of magor ones.
Its unusual for gps to stop working in stock rom, you might have to face upto backing up any programs, contacts etc (not registry) and get ready for a hard reset.
If that doesnt work then you know its hard ware related.
But before all that, look further.
I already faced its a really strange problem :S
After dozens of failed tryings I finally made a Hard reset. I hate it to install everything again, configure everything again etc...
Now QuickGPS is able to do Uptades and my software is able to find the GPS device like IGO as example. But why do I still dont find any Satelites ?!?
This makes me such angry that I want to run against a wall
If youve done a hard reset and not played with any settings, then it looks like you have a faulty gps unit, as much as i hate to say it, id contact your supplier if its in warranty still. Sorry mate, but there is nothing else you can do but that.
Hello,
I have searched this forum and others. I may have missed the answer.. I see where others have reported similar problems with Sense Home page weather not working. But have not seen a solution to the issue.
I am running
Windows 6.5.5
Manila version 2.5.2
Radio 2.23
On VZW with mightyrom relased on 5/1/2010
I noticed that "my location" weather was not updating on another rom. I flashed to MightyRom and for a day my location did update. But stopped after that. If I add a near by city (columbia, sc) it does update fine. GPS on my phone works via garmin and google maps. If I enable WiFi "my location weather" updates fine. I have removed "forecast_cache", without any fix.
Does anyone have a suggestion? If I missed the solution please forgive.
Airave will ruined it for me; as soon as I leave the house or turn off the Airave all is well, but I doubt that applies to you. Sprint confirmed this for me last night.
did you double-check to make sure Location service is on, not just 911? there are separate Sense and WM settings, check/toggle them all, followed with a reboot.
try to update it frequently in 5-10 secs interval
apologies for the thread ressurection, but...
anybody ever find a solution to this?
"my location" weather doesn't work in my home area, but I've travelled out of the state, and it works fine everywhere else.
01/30/11 is the last time it updated in my home area.
GPS works fine, weather for manually entered locations works fine
Verizon says its HTC, HTC says its a local Verizon problem.
have done a hard reset, and even flashed a new rom, no changes
I put a post on the CM forums about this but got no response. Surely I am not the only person with this problem... If anyone running CM10.1 does or does not have this problem please post.... thanks..
Thread: http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/73944-networklocation-only-works-on-wifi/
I have no idea where to post this so I am just putting it out there in the general area, as it isn't device specific at all. I have been Googling this for a while too but I cant find much reference to anyone else having the same problem.
The problem is:
When WiFi is OFF ONLY Google Maps can get a location from NetworkLocation (basically, cell towers). Nothing else will get a location.
When WiFi is ON Google Maps AND all other apps (Weather Widgets, cLock Widget, etc) get network-based location.
Please note having traditional GPS switched on or off makes no difference, When GPS is on and fixed it works great, no issues at all with normal GPS, this is only related to Network Location Provider (NetworkLocation.apk).
Its annoying as it means I have to keep GPS enabled, and it has to fix every time I want to update my weather widgets, as I cant ask them to use network location as I never use Wifi! And the whole point of it is that it updates when im out and about, not at home on my hotspot.
I just want to know at this stage, does anyone else actually have this problem? Or is it a known bug that I just did not stumble on after hours on Google...? I would track it down but I got no idea where to start.
Observations:
LG Optimus 2X, CM7, This problem does not exist!
LG Optimus 2X CM10.1, This problem exists.
Sony Xperia Z CM10.1, This problem exists.
This is using the latest offical GAPPS package from goo.im.
Tried play store 4.1.6 & 4.1.10 and also previous versions. No difference.
I am trying to find out if: its a cm10.1 bug, a gapps (networklocation.apk) bug or a jellybean bug.

Hello,
I recently discovered that my battery life had become very poor, and so I checked the wakelocks and it turned out to be RilJ Dialer, leading to a mspi and radio interface wakelock whenever my signal become low or gone( I get poor reception in areas of my school). I learned that RilJ Dialer is used when apps are requesting network location through wifi only, and the most common culprit is Maps. I froze maps and the problem was gone, so I set out to fix maps. It turns out that the background location settings is stuck at manually set location when I try to set it to not report location, it will always change back when I leave the menu. Ive tried uninstalling and reinstalling, fixing permissions, and going online and changing all my map settings through there, and nothing has worked. Is this a bug with Maps? I currently have is froze, and toggle between frozen and unfrozen when I need it, because it takes way too much battery in low/no signal locations. Thank in advance.

I've recently started experiencing this problem as well. My guess is you haven't found a solution yet?

Hey Boojay,
Unfortunately, I was never able to find a solution. I was using Cyanogenmod 7.2, and just froze maps when not in use and unfroze it when I needed it. A few weeks after the problem arose, I had some time off, and so I decided it was time to upgrade my software, and so I flashed Cyanogenmod 10.2, did all the associated upgrades, set up maps, and the problem never came back, and maps is working perfectly as of now on 4.3.1. I'm not sure what Android version you are on, but when I had the problem I tried everything in the original post, but it still didn't work. I understand that your post quite old, so hopefully you have found a solution by now.

No worries and I didn't find a solution, but I'm using a rom now where battery life isn't an issue despite that little quirk.
It seems Google's goal is to use more resources and keep track of our whereabouts at the expense of battery. I'm not too thrilled with the direction they're taking with their apps and OS lately, but what can ya do?
