Lately i have been having major probems with my gps. On google maps it literally struggles to find the lock and sometimes it doesnt it all.on Vz navigator it seems to find me no problem. It worked fine before. I am just wondering if i am the only one having this issue.
Are you running a custom rom? Stock rooted?
my GPS doesn't work very well when I'm indoors

I;m on invisiblek's v2 cm10 8/11 build right now and I'm having trouble locking on to my GPS. I keep getting a searching for GPS in my notifications.
UPDATE:
Use FasterFix (From the Play Store) in order to fix the GPS. For some reason my build of JB didn't have the GPS Locking. Launch FasterFix and set your region and then turn on GPS and relaunch the navigation, it should pinpoint you immediately!

Alright I have a lot of sattelites around me:

But I can never get a lock past 800 meter accuracy at my house. Not that I would need it but it makes me wonder. Even if I go in my backyard, nothing.
If you go to settings > location & security, is Use Wireless Networks enabled? If not then enable it.

Yes i know, but I'm just basing this off of the GPS. I get locks if I use my wifi. But my gps is really shotty and I'm not sure how if 5 sattelites are visible why I'm getting 800m accuracy. Im wondering if somethings wrong cause i get bad gps in general.

I have gotten this error on Zeus, Caty, Jetpack, and Galaxian. And not just once! It has happened while doing a variety of tasks, and sometimes just shuts down and goes to this screen when idle. Amy ideas?

....and I am not trying to single out any ROM, or claim they are bad. Just very curious as to what this is! I never seen it before. I am currently back to Sensation 1.1, which this has never occurred on.
I don't know anything about it, but use google to find your answer

Been there, all I find is others with the same issue, but no answers as to what causes it. Strange

That could be it. Although, it's never occurred on other ROMs. I've been using the same kernel/modem combo (whatever's the latest modem) for quite a while. It's just a strange occurrence.
Some stated it being some apps. Others say gps. And one said overheating. I hope someone can give us some insight on what it can be.

I've been reading articles about a recent major update to Google Maps, but so far nothing appears to have changed on my phone (or tablet, for that matter) and the Play Store tells me I've got the latest.
Anyone know what gives with this? Does anyone have the new version?

Good for a laugh first thing this morning lol
Thanks. Didn't realize they maintained different "versions" of the app targeted to specific O/Ss and devices. Hey -- my app runs on anything from 2.3 up!

The lastest update really does suck !
I was on the free way, but it showed my position on the street next to the free way. It had never happened before the update. So I don't recommend people to update. And my GPS signal is pretty good (16/25 sat.), so there is nothing wrong with my gps, but the app itself.
Agreed, if you can keep from updating, definitely hold out. Mine wouldn't keep up with my position in navigator and it was telling me to turn in directions which weren't even possible. They've introduced some major bugs with this update. I reverted back to an older version and I'm good to go now.

Hey every one. Im currently using beanstalk 4.2.2 just so you know. Ever since i got the phone i notice that every once in a while i cant turn the wifi on or it just stops working. Im not able to pull the wifi tab to the right to turn it on and it grays out like in the pic.

Even if i restart the phone it wont be working. This problem has occurred on the stock software and on beanstalk. A random thing i noticed is if the phone gets bumped, like if u set it down or accidentally hit it, the wifi will just randomly start working again. This doesnt work every time. Anyone have any ideas on what might be going on? Is this a hardware issue?
Thanks!

do you have the correct radio installed?
Im not sure. I didnt consider that because the wifi works most of the time. It just randomly does this

It is a ATT phone but I unlocked it via unlocker.net. I am current living out of the country but my service provider is Lime. The baseband number is I727UCMC1
I unlocked it before i decided i was going to root it.
Google Play Services is killing my data plan. I did some research on the forums and I am assuming this is because I just installed CM and my nexus is trying to download the new 4.4.3 update. What should I do to make it stop? I Read that for some people checking the restrict background data box works but it doesnt for others. Also read about an app called DisableServices but also came across mixed results.
Can anybody help me?

I though this was fixed in their latest builds? Which build are you on?
I thought so too. But apparently is trying to download. I was on 4.4.2 and then installed cyanogenmod 11

Install this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cn.wq.disableservice
Go to System apps, google services and then disable "SystemUpdateService". This should fix it afaik,
Seems like the issue where the phone keeps downloading 4.4.3 over and over.
