Anyone else having problems with GPS? Im kinda POed - T-Mobile LG G2x

another phone that doesnt have working GPS first it was the nexus now this
when I use Google Nav it says searching for GPS. when I use Copilot it says GPS not found
what the hell man. Google Maps doesnt give me an accurate reading of my location not even 500 meters
i have GPS and wireless turned on. can anyone test this for me if not im taking this phone back for another one

no gps issues here
my gps locks within 30 sec within 3 to 10 meters
so im not sure why urs isnt working
try a lock outside then it locks within 15 seconds at least for me it does

i tried GPS status still no lock even when outside. ugh

thats what im saying evenwith all that applied i still dont get a lock on nothing
and this phone has no problems, no backlight issues nadda....

Mine locks real quick, could be you have a bad unit.

did you clear the agps data from within gps status? and then redownload agps data?

did that and then it locked which in turn made my Nav work.

My G2X has the best GPS I have ever seen or had on a a phone. It locks in less than 5 seconds and is always accurate within 10 feet.

The G2X has a better GPS chip than the Nexus. In fact it has one of the best, if not the best. By the way, my Nexus never got under 20 feet of accuracy and neither did my Wives or my Co-Worker. If your Nexus is more accurate, I would like to see it.

Mine locks in Maps of GPS Status BUT Navigation just continues to say "searching for gps"

I'm having major issues with my gps. Sometimes it takes up to 20 minutes before it can find my location unless I'm on wifi. Today I tested the locatio side by sidecl with my nexus one. nexus found it within 10 seconds. After 10 minutes I gave up on the test because the g2x still had not found my location. Should I exchange it or is there something I can do to correct the problem?

I"m having the same issue. Mine doesn't lock in and says searching for gps. When i go to the browser, it has web2go as the homepage. I wonder if tmobile changed my internet plan or soemthing. I might have to exchange for a new unit.

Mine already locked in as soon as GPS test is opened.

LOL, No, they didn't change your plan. Just change your homepage back to what you want it in the settings.
If you are having problems with GPS then you may have gotten a lemon. Most of us are experiencing accurate GPS that locks within a couple seconds as you can see from the GPS test screenshot I took.

I had N1 and GPS was kind of slow. But i've had no problems locking GPS with G2x so far...

you'll find your N1 locks far faster with WildMonk's kernel.

i don't expect it to work great indoors. but other phones i've had did work indoors. google navigation just sits there "searching for gps" while i'm indoors. if i'm outside, it's great. while inside though, if i track my phone using lookout, it finds it in about 10 seconds or so. so i'm thinking this is a software issue,not the gps itself. just my 2 cents.

Have I been throttled?

My data download has sucked since last Thursday/Friday. It takes 5+ minutes to download an app from the market(some <1mb) and I get "Download Paused" 5-10x per market download. Also, my speed test results are strange. I checked my data usage on Friday and I was only at 4600mb, yet my download was still horrible.
Current speeds:

Average speeds in the past:
My billing cycle ends today. I guess I will find out tomorrow if my data resumes. I have been over 5gb a few times in the past, but never had an issue. Maybe I am not being throttled, I have tried all the fixes I have found for the Market issue. I formatted my memory card, delete .android_secure, have tried 3 different ROMs, same issue. If anybody has any suggestions, I would love to get out of the sub-dialup speed range!
No they are having network issues again. LTE for me is slower than yours lol.. If they throttled you to 5kps, they would be on the receiving end of a class action.
It still says I have 3g, I would only assume that 1x is faster than this. My buddy has a Thunderbolt and his works fine, but he is about 20 miles from me so he may be on a different tower?
Try rebooting your phone. Could always be something simple. Its possible that you are on a different tower thats having an issue. My 3G is great right now, but my LTE is slower than dialup. Think its their end not yours or your account.
Have you by any chance flashed the latest radio? I noticed that once I flashed the latest radio leak, my upload and download speeds dropped significantly. I flashed back to the old (stock) radio and my speeds have gone back to normal.
Reading through some threads, there seems to be others that have had the same issue, while others have had success with the leaked radio.

What's the status? Been having this issue ever since the network went down about 10 days ago. 3g hella slow.
I am still having issues. I took it into my Verizon store today which was a waste. The Vzw guy just called their tech support and he said that he did some stuff "behind the scenes" and that the new radio update should fix the issue.
I installed the radio update in the Thunderbolt Radio thread and I am still having issues. This is rediculous Verizon! It has been over a week! Makes my phone not worth using anything that uses data

[Q] OTA 2.3.4 update(Nexus S 4g) Battery, and Signal Strength

Hey everyone, I am enjoying the nexus s 4g(traded in my Evo 4g) but I have noticed some issues started to pop up after the OTA update to 2.3.4.(Build GRJ22). Also I am not rooted yet(for fear i will not be able to receive the next update that may resolve the issue's listed below).
Note I have updated my Profile, and PRL(Next to flashing to another ROM to mitigate the issue's).
1) Battery Charging, after the update the battery will not charge past ~95 percent.
2) Battery Life when idle, before the update battery life was outstanding with moderate usage. Now the device's battery life drops to ~85 percent after being unplugged for 15-20 mins.
3)Signal Reception, yet again my phone will constantly switch between 1x, and 3g even though my SNR, and DB never hits above ~65DB-~70DB.
4)Data Rate/Bandwidth, I was pulling 3-4 megs down/ 1.5 - 2.0 megs up(I live in the Virginia Beach Area) over 3g, Now I get "**** for speeds"(.3 megs down/.25 megs up. Maybe it is reference to the issue listed above(AOSP ROMS in my opinion provide a more accurate display of mobile network connectivity).
To end it I hope I am not alone with these issues?
Maybe if possible someone has a solution?
The battery thing is a means to keep the battery in better shape its not a bug.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using XDA Premium App
You aren't alone, all of the issues you listed are being looked at by Sprint and Google right now, although like the above poster said, the battery thing is intentional. Hopefuly they figure out what is wrong soon =/
In the meantime, using wifi when possible should alleviate a lot of those issues, mainly battery life on standby.
Many of my battery and network connection issues got mutch better when I turned the wifi to never sleep.

If your constantly going between networks rider is your battery drain thought there. If it was better before then there is hope your problem can be fixed with another ota

The data issues you are having are due to 2.3.4 and they are known. google/samsung are supposedly working on it. But I doubt we will see a fix anytime soon if Samsung is fixing it!
Woa, woa, woa. Wait a second, are you saying that going back to 2.3.3 or whatever the previous version was will alleviate all the signal/radio/data problems? !?!!?
If so, will downgrading stop me from being able to upgrade in the future?

nope. depending on the version you are going back to you'll mostlikely get an insta notification that 2.3.4 is available for your device, you just got to ignore it until they either fix 2.3.4 or release 2.3.5.
2.3.4 is already out. If they release a new fix it will be 2.3.5.
And what the post above mine says about the updates.
I have also seen tat 2.3.3 also has some issues with 3g. But the post I read up could have been all lies
rentaric, you did not answer the question as to whether downgrading will address the signal issues...

OP:
When you "root" the NS4G, you're just unlocking the Bootloader, then installing SU/recovery....I do believe you can still receive OTA updates. The only time you can't is when you're running a custom ROM.

That's why you make a backup of untouched stock ROM.
Hey man, I returned the phone yesterday, and then bought a replacement(same model, but in order to avoid sprint's one exchange limit) With regards to the battery issue, it most likely is hardware related because the new phone running 2.3.4.(Build GRJ22), charges fully and does not have the so called "protect your battery feature". Also while i was at the Sprint Store, I compared the signal strength of my original Nexus S to an HTC Evo, HTC Evo Shift, and another Nexus S 4g. Oddly enough even in the store(which has signal booster's all over the place. All of the phones where around -76db. I am starting to think it is either a hardware issue or a ****ty baseband version. Most likely hardware. Kind of reminds me of the Samsung Captivate i had with AT&T and the ever so wonderful bug with Odin(Orange/Blue flashing screen of death that turned my investment into a paperweight. Also after running the *#*#4636#*#*, and displaying the Preferred Network Settings, I noticed on all 3 phones tested, all devices would switch from WCDMA, to Uknown, to the best of my understanding the default should be CDMA_Auto PRL. Very Strange, very strange indead......... Samsung needs to invest into quality control, before lawsuits start.
Damn! I am on wifi and charging the phone. I just woke up and picked up the phone and started using it. I've experienced that using the phone after an overnight charge, but not removing it from the charger, will make my battery go up to 98%. I just saw it hit 99 and was like I need to get a screen shot of this. By the time I downloaded and installed something it dropped back down to 98. I've never seen this phone hit 99 before today. If it does it again I am prepared to archive it.

My V21e Update

To anyone who cares or was questioning the update. My update is running very smooth, GPS updates super quick, battery life has improved and all my apps are working perfectly. I must be lucky.
First of all, previously to the update I was running CM7 RC-1 with morfics kernel which ran great first of all. But of course i wanted to update to an "official" if you want to call it that.
This is the guide I followed thanks to TGA_Gunmann for posting first.
http://theunlockr.com/2011/05/23/how-to-unroot-the-t-mobile-g2x/
I made sure all the steps went exactly as they were supposed to. And i followed them perfectly.
Now i have this.
My version of OS im running.

Battery
Battery life with my normal to moderate usage. It has been better than my experience with froyo.
Been using this all day as well. Widget and background (bg is a Live Wallpaper also)
If someone were to ask me if they should update, My answer would be yes. I have not had any problems yet. Just make sure you follow the instructions CAREFULLY! Maybe someone will find this at least a little useful.
People are complaining but I rather have the update than be stuck on 2.2. Only. Things worth noticing is the stock camera, but we have to wait 4 more months on the update.

Mine went fine as well but I un-rooted first via 1-click, then did a factory reset, and unmounted interanl SD and format before I attempted. BTW, my battery is about the same but have you been able to uncleck the 2G and have it stick? Mine keeps checking the 2G box.

I now notice it only seems to get stuck in the checked position if there is also active wifi connection, otherwise, if the phone is on 4G, the 2G box can be checked/unchecked and the selection sticks.
I agree if anyone wants to update they should, but the only down fall is losing the nice LG camera. That is the only reason I went back. I take a lot of photos of my son who is 2 years old and I need crystal clear pictures like you get with the LG Camera. I think if you want a stable gb rom, do the update. If you want the LG Camera like I do then do not do the update. Just my two cents.
I can agree. I noticed the camera was a little dark. But I can deal without it. I take meaningless pictures unlike you. Pictures of your son is a good reason to go black. I would probably also jump on board if I were to be using it for tthe same.reason

slow 4g during calls

Anyone else have issues with slow data speeds during phone calls? I came from the quickwiz from which was working fine. Im now using skyics uclc4. I've tried update 4, and 7. Tried the new base and update 8. Also tried switching to the uclc5 modem. Out of calls the speed is great but during a call according to speed test I get like 400kb down 20 up. I have followed the directions exactly with each wipe. Any ideas what could be causing this?
it has been known for quite some time that AT&T throttle during phone calls... I'm suspecting that Rogers does the same
I'm on AT&T. What gets me is it seems much worse after updating to the ics roms. Its to the point where simple websites do not even load and just time out most of the time.

Its known but keep this in mind stone other carriers don't have data at all during voice

There are no fixes for this as of yet? I use my phone daily while browsing and using other network apps. I hate the idea of having to go back to gingerbread to be able to load anything. It was never this bad before the ics update.

On my stock GB. I can sit and watch the phone for as long as I want and I have the little "lte" symbol below the 4G. If I then call my skyrocket from another phone, right before it rings, the "lte" goes away and then the phone rings. The "lte" stays off until almost a minute after my phone call ends. Does it every time for me.
If the "lte" isn't there, I get the old slow data speeds. Speedtest I did today 31000 up and 6000 down on "lte", 1300 up and 1100 down on a call. All within 5 minutes. Seems like "lte" is just turned off during phone calls.
Maybe they are not really throttling as just turning off LTE during a call. Of course maybe they do both.
I just did a test on the more recent ics leak and my phone falls back to utms when I'm on a call but my wifes gs2 (not skyrocket) get's h+ where I am. sad face.
Again lte is only data and doesn't support calling there is already a thread touching more on this
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
I could understand if it was for example, 1000 down / up. but 26? the fastest speeds ive gotten during a call is 600 down 45 up. and that was very brief. it hasnt always been this way. This is something that i use every day. 9 / 10 times i cant even load a webpage if on a call, it will time out. One thing i have noticed is it has been consistently slow. http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/845/screenshot2012041915404.png/
Updated to SkyICS UCLD2 base with update 8. Also updated to UCLD2 modem. still getting horrid speeds compared to gingerbread while on a call. managed to get 859 down 19 up. http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/72/screenshot2012042103232.png/

Yea, I figured I was gonna have to take it in but I was hoping there was some fix I could do myself.

Does your GPS connect while you are stationary? I had the issue on my note edge 915G where while driving I used to start navigation and rest it on the side seat or on my lap and within minutes it would say 'GPS signal lost'. While stationary it would lock easily.
Then I started keeping it in vertical position in the car door pocket and since then it remains connected and not once the GPS was lost. So it seems keeping it lying down is sort of blocking the GPS signal. Keeping it vertical solves this issue.
Dont know if this is the kind of problem you are facing. If it is then maybe you can give it a try.

Your best luck is taking it in. I've had my fair share of experience with devices with bad GPS. My Note 3 could never get a lock, and trust me, there's NOTHING that will fix it unless you're one of the extremely lucky few that's having issues because of software and a patch comes out. Most likely though, you're chip's just bad. Take it in, get it replaced and you'll be fine.
It didnt lock on. It would be within the general area of where i was. Also when trying navigation , the navigation arrow would just stay in one spotthwn after few minutes would jump to kinda where i wqs at. Took it to sprint and the girl working was trying the most dumb things to tey to gwt it to work. Like take out sd card, refresh phone, try different map and navigation app. I was like ....listen i done several tests and apps already....its the gps chip. Then the main guy came out and tried an app real quick and he agreed with me. So they ordered me a replacement and everything is working

Mine is wonky too. My Note 2 can lock on at home with like 9-10 satellites but this Edge will take forever and it constantly locks to random numbers and fluctuates up and down even outside. I'm blaming this one on the metal. I wonder if the S6 has this issue. My S3 and Note 2 had great gps.
