I have the MIUI Freshly Squeezed but I can't get a GPS lock. I can't even get it. I tried the way posted on xda that seemed to work for a lot of people but it didn't work for me. Any ideas???

This always works for me on CM7.1. I know MIUI is based on CM, so it's worth a try.

You "tried the way posted on xda that seemed to work for a lot of people but it didn't work for me"..thank you soooo much for the detailed description of what that method was haha. There are a good amount of fixes out there for GPS and you provided nothing as to what you have actually tried so i'll just assume you did nothing and start at zero.
1. try Crypted's AGPS fix in the dev thread. It works.
2. if you're using a case and it covers the space between the flash and camera, take it off and try to get a lock either before or after using crypted's AGPS fix
3. try the other guys method above me.
4. buy a map.
forgot to mention
5. Go outside with your phone.
but yea as mentioned we need to has more details from you. How you rooted, how you flashed your rom
also you didnt restore any settings from a previous rom did you?
i was a noob over the weekend and restored wifi passwords that werent compatible and broke my wifi radio. had to wipe and reflash lmao. just making sure u didnt restore anything relating to maps or gps

hello guys,
'
im in deep s***. so i have a samsung captivate. and one day I accidentally hit the "power save" setting instead of "conservative" setting. and after boot it slowed the whole phone down to unusable. but thankfully i manage to crawl in and change the setting back to conservative.
everything seems to be normal now, except GPS!
now it hardly sees more than one satellite, and if it does, it shows all of them on top of each other in the north, and NEVER gets a lock.
what do you guys think is wrong? and how can I fix this? (
thank you

No, it installs some files for gps to work better. No wipe.

Thanks for the reply but I am currently running Cog 2.1.6 with Atinm's v1.10 build. I havent reflashed my phone in quite some time but was wondering if this JM9 fix also works on my phone with the build I am running. I searched the forums and it says this is for Eclair JM9. How do I find out if this is JM9? My baseband version is I897UCJH7. I assume my phone is JH7 so this will not work, however, you also said that it works with stock rom which is JH7....so I am a wee bit confused here.
Thanks.

I load this to SD card, then boot into recovery or go thru ROM manager, and then what steps?
thanks a lot
tried this yesterday, but no luck. GPS same. worse, now my PC does not recognize my SD card!!!
The lockscreen whether its charging or not comes on by itself at random times and sometimes several times in a row. When its not charging, it obivously kills my battery. I thought it might be related to the rom im using, but i have tried several different roms and they all do the same thing. Another thing is my speakerphone will come on by itself when i answer a call. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
any ideas?

Sounds like something is set to turn the screen on. Do you have any custom messaging apps? What rom are you running? any mods? please provide as much info about your phone as you can to help find the issue

Right now i am running Android Revolution. When i first got the phone it had the Ingersoll Rom installed and i don't remember it doing it then, but since then i have tried, coredroid, rcmix3d, virtuous, honeysense, leedroid and they all do it. I have both "s" off. No i did have chompsms installed a while back, but have done several data wipes since then. No other mods. It is eating the hell out of my battery by doing this and i am starting to regret trading my iphone for it.

I would flash a sock rom and see if it does it. might be a phantom file that is not getting over written. If it doesnt do it then then reload the rom. are you restoring any system data or apps?

Trying the TPC stock optimized rom for the day, ill give details on it tonight.
Ahh, i give up. It keeps kicking car panel on. I am getting so frustrated with this. And no rom has fixed the speakerphone coming on automatically.

Sounds like you have a device issue, car panel should only come on when it is plugged into the car dock, might be a USB port issue

Sorry to hear ur issues. I can understand ur frustration but don't leave a general remark like this, cos what u r experiencing could be a stray issue due to some random app.
Anyways, coming to ur issue, try this once:
1. Format ur SD card
2. Copy the Android Revolution 5.1.10 (I am saying this ROM cos I've been using this since 5.1.7 and its been good all along)
3. Go to CWM console
4. Do the factory wipe option (data/cache wipe)
5. Go to advanced and wipe the dalvik cache
6. Flash the ROM
7. Reboot
Do NOT restore any apps or data using TiBu.
Let me know how it goes. (I am subscribing to this thread )
Edit:
1. I had the speaker phone turning on issue on a couple ROMs, but didn't face it in Ginger Beast and this ROM.
2. Reg. car panel, I heard this issue on here many times on different ROMs. U cud simply freeze the app or delete it altogether if u r not using it. And like Zel said, this could be cos the charger u r using has current coming through that's around the same range as that of car charger.

Is it possible the sdcard is bad? I am about to format and reinstall android revolution right now. Ill post the results.
OK, flashed Android Revolution. The speakerphone still comes on automatically. Will keep an eye on the screen to see what it does. I have not any installed any mod, or apps yet. Totally clean install.
OK, it didnt do it as often, but the screen still came on. I'm not 100% sure, but i think it came on as data was being used? i noticed the data arrows moving. Formatting and flashing coredroid now and testing.
1. Did u restore any apps?
2. Do u have any of ur apps on SD card?
nope and nope

This is strange... Hearing for the first time. Could u pls post this on the Android Revolution thread and see if anyone else faced this issue. As far as I can recall, I don't remember seeing any such thing on that thread.
Edit: You could try re-downloading the ROM zip. Sometimes zips can be corrupt too.
This time when u try, please backup ur data on SD card, and format it fresh, and load only the rom zip on it.
i had NFC working on stock rooted, then flashed cm10 and it still worked, i switched to jellywiz and wanted to go back to cm10 and reset google wallet just to make sure it was reset and now when i go into my nfc settings, it's grayed out, anyone have any ideas on what to do? i tried enabling nfc before flashing back to cm10 like another thread had suggested and it didn't work
Check this thread out. I posted a file that may help
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31673562
Also, someone said if you flash a touchwiz rom and enable nfc, then factory reset, you can then flash aosp and nfc will work.

edit: ok soooooo yeah idk wtf is going on, but i checked my devices on the google wallet website and it shows that my device has been disabled, i go into google wallet after using the hack to get it working (used the d2spr hack and not a modified apk hack) and it tells me that my keys aren't released.....i'm confused as wtf is going on haha
edit 2: ok so apparently the wallet hacks that i had been using didn't have the right libs in it for nfc, i used the 10/10 hack that came out today and it worked......fml why does this have to happen after i post my problem just hours prior? haha
thanks for offering your help though maniac, its much appreciated bro
Downloaded this ROM from the second link. Thought it was a bad download, as it would go through all the setup but it seems to install just fine, but when the phone reboots, the phone process immediately crashes, can't set any accounts (accounts crash), keyboard crashes, etc. Not sure what I'm hitting wrong, I've downloaded it again, wiped cache/reset, wiped dalvik, install just the rom first, set permissions, reboot into recovery, run again, install all software (launcher, factory apps, etc), but they still manage to crash (especially phone so I get no data unless connected to wifi).
Any advice? Thanks in advance
I believe thereis an issue with wifi calling, need to look into this, see if all works when not installing this, well try wiping, flashing rom only, then go back in aroma and flash anything but the removed from stock stuff. Hopefully this will be fixed soon

I absolutely LOVE this rom. I got over the .phone crashing as it doesnt effect me much it seems just crashes twice on start-up and thats it. I didnt download wifi calling and it still crashes for me. But this is seriously otherwise the best rom ive ever used. Many kudos.
Yeah. I'm having the same problem too. Basically, the phone won't work. Everything just crashes. I hope they make a fix really soon. I love this ROM.
I find it weird that GO is the SLOWEST out of any roms I've tried...and even though I don't like it, stock isn't as bad as I thought - just has bad bloat. GO has chrashed even more than stock has, but after I just did a clean stock, its faster and both previous experiences....

does anyone else have the issue with the modem? Can't seem to get it working again just get regular service no data.
The only problem I'm having is that I can't make the gps to work, I always go back
to stock and make the gps lock but I can't ... or maybe idk how to ? , I tried a few apps
from the playstore but nothing.
That's the only issue I'm having anyone?
I'm using Philz recovery and I wipe everything.

I forget where but in either the qa or main thread someone went into detail how they got it to work. I think pretty much you gotta flash to stock then pull up maps and have it route you somewhere, make sure it follows you on you trip and then you know you should have a good GPS lock. Afterwards wipe as usual and flash, GPS should then work. Probably something you have already done, but also make sure you have it set to high accuracy so it uses your GPS for location and not just cell towers.
