[Q] My GPS Problem. - Motorola Triumph

I tried all the fixes posed on Xda, sdx and every other site but i get the same problem when i put my GPS on, it things im in the middle of the ocean right under Africa. Kinda funny and when i go back to stock it don't pick a signal up at all i tried it in other locations and nothing. is anyone else having this problem? I read that it works for other people but nothing I tried other roms and I still don't get a gps fix on anything.

one of the best GPS locks I had is in Sharp Rom. You can find it on AF.
GPS locks in seconds, which proves that GPS problem in Triumph is not hardware related.
If you have CWM you should try it. Don't forget to turn on "use AGPS.." in the setting and you will be surprised.

Yeah this is something I want to try and fix in CM7 will see if I can't get it to work properly!

I'm using g60 cm7 and its stable, but can take up to 2 mins. When I use app gps status it downloads the satellite map and can sometimes speed up my lock. :good:

What I do is at night I'll kick on navigator and "use wireless assist thingy" and it will run forever while I sleep and it's plugged in. I was using FakeGPS for a while and that will mess things up.

Have you tried the GPS 2.0 libraries update for gingerbread ROMs?Now I know that some people say it didn't work but others say it did.I use it on my MT and it works great.If you have tried it with no luck then maybe its the GPS radio in the phone isn't worth a darn.I've read where it was said the poor GPS was a hardware issue and not software.

The fact that GPS is fully working in the Sharp Rom proved that GPS is not hardware issue.

Thanks for trying out the Sharp ROM. There are hardware issues with the GPS but it is also software related. With the Sharp ROM, the GPS, without AGPS, still works better than on any of the Triumph ROMs, IMHO, but the cherry on top is the AGPS. It is ridiculous how fast you get a lock.

Have you tried faster GPS from the market? Most roms and stock use crappy custom GPS servers that take way too long to lock. Faster GPS easily let's you set the server to the official ones closest to your region. I now get first fix times around 1 min then locks on under 10 secs any other time.

tomtom7 and htc touch pro gps fix

Hi Guys.
Just wondering if anyone has been able to solve the problem of tomtom7 taking like 5-10mins to find a valid gps singal when installed on the htc touch pro using the internal a-gps.
Sorry if this has been covered. I've tried doing searches and there is a lot of discussion but can't seem to find a thread that actually lists a working solution.
Can anyone help?????
so that is a no?
i thought this was a common problem with a lot of people?
any solutions?
gps fix
for me upgrading to 6.5 rom did the trick
Are you referring to the leaked windows mobile 6.5 rom beta??
I use Tomtom 7 and have no problem at all getting a GPS lock. With the original radio it took around 40 seconds, now with radio 1.12.25.19 it locks in around 10-15 seconds.
But I had to uninstall Google Maps for it to work.
I also use TomTom 7 but I dont use aGPS. It use to take time earlier when I had AT&T stock ROM. After I flashed with Energy ROM 2.0 Win Mo 6.1, the satellite locks pretty fast. However it is still not 10-15 seconds.
This might be as I have kept the radio same.
Do you all guys use aGPS?
I have aGPS disabled, because the GPS doesn't work properly if I enable it. Maybe Brazil has poor aGPS support, so I'm glad the GPS itself is pretty good.
Well im using my htc touch pro on the optus network in australia.
Checking device info shows my radio as: 1.02.25.19
Im guessing this is an old version.
I dont really wanna change anything thats going to void my warranty and the whole purpose of getting this device was so i could put tomtom on it and i didn't have to carry a gps receiver with me, i wanted to use the interneal gps.
Is there any software tweaks out there or is it purely down to dodgy internal gps/ dodgy htc rom
juzz18,.. check the HTC homepages.
there's an offical fix for the GPS fix issue that should blow your warranty
juzz18,.. check the HTC homepages.
What I meant is...
there's an official fix for the GPS fix issue that should NOT blow your warranty
hey that wasn't there the last time i checked!
They've just released it by the looks of the date.
I'll try it out and let you know.
Thanks Heaps!!

I had this radio before, and a few weeks ago I decided do flash a new one (1.12.25.19). I was a little afraid because I had never done that.
Well, now GPS locks 2-3 times faster, finds more satellites, and sometimes locks even indoors, like inside my house.

Ahhh ok. Well the one you flashed to is that an official radio release and if i was to flash to it would it void warranty on the device??
I fought with the tomtom software for a while and eventually gave up. Found a thread discussing amAzeGPS and installed it to the storage card. Works pretty well. Locks on really quickly. Might give it a try.
Anyone with Energy ROM 2.0 tried this?

For me on Energy ROM 2.0, Google Maps gets a fix in under 10 seconds, and Chartcross GPS Test gets a fix just as quickly. From what I can tell, attempting to get a cold fix with TomTom does NOT work, at ALL. However if I start up GPS Test THEN TomTom, it fixes quickly.
Thanks for the reply. Yes I do start Chartcross GPS test first and then TomTom
It take 20-25 seconds sometimes more to get the lock. It is much better than last time when I was on AT&T stock ROM
So I guess there is no use of this patch yet for me

[Think-Tank] Fixing our GPS?

I have been having issues with getting my GPS to work. I have tried installing the latest Radios and changing roms, wiping and rebooting...all kinds of things and when I try to use the navigate feature in the maps application, it says 'searching for gps...' forever. Any suggestions? What can we do? I know I am not the only one with this issue...
It works but its just been flaky since I went to Eclair/Froyo roms.
Never had any of these issues with the early donut stuff. So I consider it related to that.
No real need for a "think tank" on this subject - the G1 GPS has worked great since the Donut update and last couple radio updates. The problem is more than likely due to using a ROM that was never intended to be used on our G1s.

so are you saying that by using a ROM that was never intended to be used on our G1's that my gps is now broken? Or under that ROM it is unusable ?... Also, is your GPS turn by turn navigation working fine? Mine has not been working for a while now, and I have searched and asked alot and have not been able to fix it with any of the suggestions, so I was hoping by starting this thread we could get a solution or some solutions going...
What phone u got n which Tom are u currently using
Never mind white g1 on super e that's strange man I just used it female BK to silver spring. MD I'm on. Cy rc2 are updated to 440??
I am using cyanogrn 6.0 rc2 and my gps works perfectly.
Sent from my HTC Dream using XDA App
mine works pretty decent....
I suggest to anyone trying to diagnose GPS issues, don't bother for the next couple days...
http://science.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=10/08/02/2028228
Mine was working perfectly on CM5.0.8 but in the past few days it's been locating me several hundred miles from my true position, without any software changes. I think we're just in for a period of noisy signal...
actually i can confirm having similar issues... it seems like the antenna is disconnected or sth... the gps chip seems to be found, no errors on that unlike on a diff. G1 i checked that had it disconnected, which gave me problems there already. also it finds satellites but only up to 3 which is not enough for location correlation... so i guess our problem is a hardware thing... unfortunately
i admit, since moving to eclair and froyo my gps has been very temperamental. It is so undependable, if i leave the house in a hurry i am screwed. I have to leave the gps on for a while to get a lock then i can leave the house.
Mines working perfect. However, if you find yourself constantly needing the use of navigation, then I suggest you go buy an actual GPS. Yes, your phone can DO IT, but it's not the main function of your phone. You shouldn't rely on your phone for an extra function. I usually only result to phone navigation when I need to get somewhere quick and right then and have absolutely no idea where its at or how to even get close to it. I've maybe used it 4 times. Every time I use it, it works perfectly for me.
As lbcoder said, many things can block or interfere with your GPS signal. Have any of you tested somewhere very spacious and open with no buildings or anything? You may be surprised at how much a difference outside can make. Mine generally does ok inside, but works much better outside. This is true for generally everywhere for me.

I do not live near any tall buildings at all (the closest tall building is at least a mile or a 1/2 a mile away.
Is the antennae in place (exposed, like a small shinny screw just left of the sim card)? It’s fathomable the antennae slipped ajar or even fell out, especially if you’ve tinkered at all with it’ guts.

No, it is not exposed. I was thinking the same thing, but the guts have never been messed with.
I was trying to revert it back to stock the other day to see if that would change it, but I could not even find the right donut file to download.
I have the latest radio, I dont know about the SPL though (I will check when im done writing this...) and the ROM that I am currently using is Super F test 2, but I have had this issue with every other ROM...
Maybe there is a ROM or ROM/ Radio/ SPL combination that someone could suggest? (I dont know if that will even work for me though, but thanks in advance)
Like I said before, I found my gps to work much better on Donut. Try Super D 1.9.3 or enoms official donut. I never had issues with those.

Like I said, get a GPS system. You shouldn't depend on your phone for something like this. You should only depend on your phone to make phone calls.
You can try Donut. If you want to unroot here:
http://tinyurl.com/yenhdpx
Extract that, place on root of sdcard, and boot holding camera. It will detect it and ask you the press send. If you press send, you will start reverting to stock 1.0. Cupcake must be updated through a new recovery.

ok yeah that is what I was talking about, but...you know say in maps, when you get directions then tap on 'navigate' and then it opens 'google navigation' ...that is where I have the GPS problem...it will locate me fine but wont give me turn by turn directions as a true pure GPS device would, it just says "searching for GPS..." forever...even if I leave it over night.

[Q] Did v2.2 fix your GPS?

I was really hoping it would, but after installing Cognition v2.2 BETA5.5. my GPS is no better. I really miss this feature.
If others are having this fix theirs than I need to see about getting new hardware. If not, then ... I don't know.... Start shopping for another (not a Samsung) phone?

2.2 helped my GPS immensely though it was already decent before hand.
and not to be a PITA but the really shouldn't be in the dev forum, shoulda posted it in the Q&A one.
This belongs in general.
That aside, froyo is better than stock but not fixed.

Google maps still can't get a fix very well, but its a software issue, my tracks shows that my gps has near perfect accuracy, sensor assist in settings does not work, it only makes the run on arrow, and driving through the woods worse.
Once you get a good fix in google maps you should then get fixes faster but the initial fix may take a while. Getting a fix with other software first seems to help, but may be coincidental.
Before you go trading in the phone make sure you do a clean install, master clear in odin one click, then odin flash jf6, then upgrade, either with odin or via clockwork mod recovery.

Didn't really fix it for me. It takes a long time to get a fix and once I get it, it would lose the fix within a few seconds.
I'm not using a window mount so the GPS signal has to go through the roof of my car. That may or may not affect it.
Didn't fix it at all for me. Very frustrating.
-Can't get a lock while moving
-Can't get a lock inside
-When I do get a lock it will lose it If I start moving
-Accuracy is waaay off.
2.2 broke my GPS It pretty much worked fine before I updated... now I cant even get a lock!!!
Mine will lock fine if I'm not moving but will not work once I'm moving, so still no navigation. I've heard it works for some so I wonder if there are just alot of hardware issues or what
My advice to you guys is to learn how to tweak lbstestmode settings. You can make your gps a lot better or a lot worse with these settings. Read up on the best settings and apply them to your phone.

I gave up on my gps ... I am now "hoping" that the official release fixes it for everyone
update, i previously reported that it had more or less fixed my gps, that was with beta 4. beta 5.5 cant seem to get a fix, bad install im guessing. any number of things could be responsible. and no lbs test mode settings do not fix the gps. i almost wonder if it has something to do with titanium backup which i did not use before. its all purely speculation though.
Using Cognition Froyo 2.2 b5, GPS works almost 100% out of all the apps, google (Nav mostly)is the one with issues but very few now. It just looses me sometimes, usually when going under 20 mph but it does find me again in seconds.
I don't have a dash mount yet (due to questionable GPS) so it sits on the seat next to me in a truck, not the best. My trick is to run GPS test for a minute before I use Nav, seems to work every time. I lock on 7-10 sats in 6 or 7 seconds and they stay locked which never happened before, A lot of the time I'll be locked on 9 to 10 while moving with gps test reporting my speed within 1 mile an hour. I've also noticed that I get very few mistakes from Nav if I turn on the satellite layer, don't know why but works solidly for me when I do that.
This phone couldn't do a thing with gps before I flashed Cog's froyo and I had flashed a lot of different fixes, files, and roms almost bricking the phone a few times but nothing worked like the cognition froyo. I haven't used the jupiter v 006 files neither, no need with the gps working well.
GPS
I'm hoping that there was some parallel development going on and Samsung hasn't included a GPS fix in the leaked Froyo ROM. The GPS is pretty bad now - it's taking forever to obtain a fix again.
With 2.2, mine works fine. It takes a full minute to get a lock that status solid while in motion, but it gets a usable lock in twenty seconds. It's not as good as an iphone, but it's usable. In eclair, it's useless. Most of the time I can't get a lock at all, even if I let it try for a half hour. It will see 8 satellites and not lock a single one. In short, 2.2 has fixed my gps.
Mine has yet to have the GPS functioning well enough to use it.
No
........... 10 chars.
No, not at all.
My old ancient TMO G1 running Edge on ATT had lock on GPS 100% of the time. It was dead accurate and GPS was always on point. Can't say the same about my Captivate.
I'm on my second Captivate. I exchanged my first one thinking it was a hardware issue but alas I've given up. I flashed my phone with a couple different versions of ROMS (but not before trying the OTA Official fix before flashing any customs or rooting) it updated successfully but the GPS was still hella slow.
I'm not sure what's going on but these workarounds and everything absolutely do not work for me at all.
The only time the GPS works is when I turn Wi-Fi on, which defeats the purpose of having a wireless device in my opinion since you won't ALWAYS be around a Wi-Fi network (especially on a highway connected between the middle of nowhere) ...
I drove 450 miles with the GPS on my Captivate using Google Nav. It was pretty darn accurate. Only lost me 3 times the entire trip and by that I mean it went off onto the sideroads that ran parallel with the highway and then immediately came back. I'd have to say that 2.2 definitely fixed my GPS without a doubt.
I recently was having the crazy compass issue where it jumps back and forth. But my gps had always worked well as long as I wasn't moving to fast... I know I know. But cog 5.5 fixed my compass and improved my gps as well. Note I said improved not fixed, lol.

[Q] GPS accuracy? bug?

Hi all!
Is it a rom (actually running IC 4.2.3) or a Sensation issue about my GPS?
It doesn't seem very accurate, at least having an eratic behaviour...Screenshot below shows my last run on Runkeeper, I can assure i wasn't drunk...!!
What's wrong?
Its linked to you running slowely I have the same problen with Map my run, on the Sensation, Desire S and HTC HD2 on droid 2.2 froyo
As you only move a small distance between updates the phone is looking to provide a new location
Try slowing down the updates
I didn't have the problem on my ex-iPhone...
How do I slow the updates? I can't see any option like that...
I've started having a similar problem. It's saying I've ran twice as far as I know I have. Didnt have the issue before, just started.
I've installed a new rom and firmware and still doing it.
Any answers?
Anyone else getting this or found a fix?

try this method
(believe me even though its of different device ..its used to be mentioned in ARHD ..FAQ thread ..and i myself used this ..to fix my gps on sensation )
btw i used method 2 ..as method 1 failed for me
and method2 screws up your splash screen ..but can be easily changed...
fastboot flash splash1 splash.img
Also it is very important to get a proper fix before you start moving, GPS fixes are harder to get when an object is moving. Turn on your app a minute before you start an activiy. I for example, also use the 20 second countdown of Endomondo, it gives me some time to put away my phone before I start my work out, but also gives me 20 seconds to stand still .
The fixes look a little beyond my capabilities to be honest.
It's just so frustrating that the Sensation has these problems. I've installed Faster Fix and GPS status. Will try again tomorrow.
Cheers!
Sorry, I guess you misunderstood. With "A proper fix" I meant "a proper GPS location fix" which means your GPS device knows where it is. To get this "fix" your GPS device must know its distance from the GPS satellites. To be certain about this position it is easier for your device if you stand still for a small period of time.

I totally understood, I was referring to the comment above yours. Sorry!
Sorry for the mix up then, good luck!
I'm having this SAME problem. It seems not as bad using the 11.69A radio but still on occasion has issues. It is really frustrating because i've used runkeeper for years with issue on g1, g2 and sensation, it's something with the new radios or ROMs doing it it seems like but I don't know enough about GPS radios and whatnot to know for sure.

GPS Troubles on Nexus S 4G

I have tried running a few different ICS roms and had very bad luck with the GPS working. Is there something I should be doing prior to flashing a a new rom or after flashing that would help get the gps to work?
I have tried GPS Status, GPS Test and GPS Fix but nothing seems to work.
I have read tons of posts and nothing seems consistent in gettting the gps to work.
I have used AOSP 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 and vhgomez roms.

this will be moved into a different forum. dont post questions in development...but to answer your question, if you use those gps apps you sometimes gotta wait a while for it to pick up gps, u cant just hit clear agps data, redownload agps data and boom gps works. sometimes u gotta wait a little for it to find a signal. I've never in my whole history of owning an android phone have had gps issues that i couldnt fix by using those programs. and i've run the aosp oICS rom and had perfect gps.
If your GPS is not working at all, and you've tried everything. Try un-rooting your phone, go back to stock rom, see if that gets GPS to work. Then try to root again. I read on a Google forum that this guy did not have GPS working at all. He though he had a bad GPS chip or something. He un-rooted to return phone to Sprint and for some odd reason the GPS started working again. My GPS does not work also. It did prior to rooting. Im wating for the official OTA to un-root then root in hopes of getting it to work. I dont use GPS much so its not a issue for me at the moment. Good luck.
GPS seemed to be off for all the ROMs I was using, mostly in apps outside of the Maps app. I went back to 2.3.7 stock since I figure ICS OTA should be arriving soon.
Good to know I'm not the only one. I love ics too much to go back. But at least its a known issue. Anyone have any idea why?

Try the QBANIN GPSFix app if you haven't already, otherwise try using your GPS in different areas.
For the longest time I would rage because I had no GPS (or so I thought) when I attempted to use google maps or anything. Tried all the GPS fixes with zips and various apps, unrooted, same thing.
A month later I was on a trip out of state, opened up google maps and got a lock instantly! When I got back home checked gps again, still wouldn't lock.
Turns out for whatever stupid a** reason... about a 1/2 mile radius around my house GPS will not work but as soon as I get out of that area, its almost instant haha. Hopefully you have the same issue as I did

On another thread a user indicated he shut all the location services off, then used GPStest or Status to clear the GPSA and then request a GPSA download. They he went back and turned all the location services back on. Sounds strange but it got my GPS working.
