Anyone is using Sygic Aura Navigation App on infuse? For me the Sygic Aura GPS seems to connect only with Wifi On. If i dont have any data available GPS never connects. On my iPhone it used to work flawless even without any data plan. Anyone else facing such issues?
Weird. I just installed it. I am using infused 2.2.3, entropy's kernel, and modem k13. I locked fine and its working flawlessly. Maybe reboot or do the angry GPS fix?

Are you connected to WiFi? For me google maps works fine and GPS connects instantly but if my Wifi is off Sygic GPS just doesnt lock... shows "Your position is inaccurate for car mode". I am on S7 ROM..

Hi I'm running CM7 w/ dream kernel and my GPS isn't locking on at all. Also, my wifi keeps displaying "disabled" and refuses to connect. Does anyone who has had similar problems know any fixes?
For GPS, backup up your CM7 then load any sense based ROM. Get a very solid GPS lock (Use GPS status from the market so you can be sure) then restore your CM7 build. Thats the only way I got my GPS to work.

I was having a similar problem before I went back to Das BAMF 1.7.
There are threads about AOSP kernels that have Wifi issues which required a code fix. I suggest flashing a different kernel which has a Wifi fix in the changelog.
(Un)Fortunately GPS problems are not unique to the Thunderbolt. I had similar issues on my Motorola Droid with the AGPS data. Whenever I have GPS problems on any ROM, I run the application "GPS Status & Toolbox" by "EclipSim". It is capable of forcing an AGPS update. After getting the updated data Force Stop and restart the application having a GPS synchronization problem. If AGPS data was the issue then the application should sync quickly.
I tried both of those but they didnt work. The thing is wifi worked fine for about 3 days and started malfunctioning this morning. GPS didn't work from the start.
GPS won't lock on on my backup either

Go to your sense based rom. Download gps status from the market. Open gps status, hit menu then go to toolbox. Clear gps data and then redownload agps data. Get gps lock. Go back to CM7.

Did you install the kernel with ROM Manager or Kernel Manager? If you did, your wifi module is probably hosed. Install through CWR. Use the Sense/CM7 rom changing trick to get GPS lock.
Dreamkernel has the Wifi/MMS/Settings fix.
Fixed everything! Thanks guys. This is an amazing community.
Hey,
Even though my GPS connects instantly and I can see position on MAPS, but when I start Navigation, it just says "searching for gps" and it stays like that for 10mins and then starts on its own.
Why does it take so long?
It is not a network issue but phone issue, as I have tried my sim card in another android phone and that connects instantly.
Someone know how to fix this issue?
I am on CM7.1
Thanks.

I tried that it did not help.
Note that I connect to GPS instantly by using GPS Test app, but when I start the Navigation app it just says searching for GPS for 10mins until it starts.......
But on the other phone the navigation starts instantly on same network.......
This is weird. On both CM7's (Selfkang and hyper) my wifi only works once per boot. Works great that once, but if i turn it off it wont come back on.
Happens on bricked and faux kernels.
Gps apps recognize that gps is powered on because they dont say things like "gps off". But they dont get sat data and the gps icon doesnt go on in the status bar.
Is this a known bug with cm7 builds or is something just goofy?
Im on 3.12 firmware

im thinking about getting an unlocked tmobile phone, i have AT&T if i use a sidekick 4g on edge will gps work fine?
GPS works even without an internet connection.
i just tried it my atrix GPS wont work without any internet connection same with mom's iphone 3gs and my brother's S2 (had wifi and internet off)
It's impossible, "you're doing it wrong"
The GPS antenna will work fine without internet. The applications that utilize the GPS function probably wont like maps which requires internet to download the directions. Any app that has all the necessary information installed on the phone to utilize the GPS like apps that record workout data for exercise: speed, altitude, direction, coordinates should work fine. Any other apps as long as your are connected to wifi should work fine too. Edge and GPS on my phone the galaxy s2 work fine and I have used it many times that way for navigation just took forever to load satellite maps.
ohhhh ok thanks webD and Syrusoo i know what i did wrong i turned off the satellite too, thanks again for the help, also thanks your meters lol
My GPS was not fast to sync no matter what I did.. In 4.1.2 TW.
I tightened the screws, tweaked the config, etc.. But Waze and other GPS apps would eventually lock and everything would be fine.. Just had to be patient..
I upgraded to Old&Slow 4.3, which is great; but my GPS now never gets a lock.
All the options are set in settings -> Iocations.. But Waze doesn't even detect the GPS anymore..
And GPS Status (from play store) also never got a lock after an hour of changing ntp servers and rebooting..
Also Phone Info Tool no longer works in 4.3 so I am now stuck with 4G, as I can no longer force 3G..
I would be open to suggestions on either problem..
Thanks in advance.

I use GPS test and have reset the AGPS once to resolve a GPS issue that occurred for me once before. Have you done this through any app? Usually tightening the screws has helped folks or you could go the Odin route.
Today.. The GPS is infallible..
I can not explain why..
It is faster than it has ever been..
