Ok maps it locks on, GPS status app shows sats but no fix on any of them even outside. Tried flashing the sgs3 GPS fix, the Google universal fix, and still nothing. I mean it says lock in status when I open maps, and has me in the general area, but no luck with nav. I've tried restoring backups, no dice, even with fixes. Never installed an aosp Rom. So Idk what happened this weekend worked on my way to the hotel for this trip, and I go today to set it for home and it wouldn't lock on and has nav stuck in that parking lot. Even after restores, or a full wipe and new Rom install, uninstall maps, everytime I reopen nav it's still I'm that lot and I'm not even in the same town.

Please call Verizon and report your issue. I just got off the phone with Tier 2 support today and they claimed to have zero reports of this problem. I told them that I had seen "many, many reports" of this problem on XDA.
But see what I don't get us I've never had this problem until this weekend. Same Rom non-stop so Idk

Unless you are on Verizon's paid navigation app that would be a Google problem and not a Verizon problem. Server may have been down. My Google navigation works.

no fix, but says fix is on or w/e it says by the time. then here's maps loading directions fine ... but here on the nav it still has me in that hotel parking lot lol. I've even let it sit for an hour without screen off no luck. It had to be some service/file somewhere not getting wiped or something Idk. Anyways I just got back from a few hour drive so I'll be checking on this in a few hours after a nap lol. Thanks for any help anyone can dig up.

Well that's weird, now all of a sudden it's getting a fix on some sats but my compass is reversed. And now with getting the fix the nav has reset itself. I don't get it, that hotel had to have a blocker or something ha ha

Same issue here I was testing out some new ROMs and thought it may have been a bad flash. I went back and restored 4 backups full wipes and cant get any of them to lock on including stock prior to OTA update recently.
Well it looks like it was magically fixed by Verizon. Atleast for me it did.
Fix that worked for me
I had this issue. I believe I caused it by mucking around trying to make my GPS fix faster. Symptom was simple - GPS knew where I was - just did not register any accuracy (in GPS Status) and thus would not lock. Always searching for GPS in Navigation even though it put my location as pretty much where I was. I had ClearnROM at the time but I don't think that caused it at all.
I tried Faster Fix. GPS Aides (free and paid) and a custom GPS.config file. Nothing worked. Thought for sure I was going to have to exchange the phone. so I set about doing what I would have to do.
Returned phone to bone stock via ODIN (VRALF2).
Rebooted into stock recovery and wiped/data for a clean internal SD card.
Flashed radio via ODIN (VRLF2).
Accepted VZW OTA update (30MB).
Rooted with Root Debug FS.
Put EZ-Unlock and EZ-Recovery apks on my sdcard and installed them.
Unlocked the Bootloader and booted to recovery 6.0.1 once just to verify it worked.
Whalla.
GPS locks and all it back to normal.
Your mileage may vary. I did (in the process of wipe/data for clean SD card- loose all my Titanium Backups but getting Navigation to work again was worth the hassle of rebuilding my apps from scratch.
I have no intention to put any effort into tweaking the GPS settings or file again now that it's working.

I tried a couple of roms but I had problems mainly with gps.
I don't need the fastest rom around, I don't need the best battery or the coolest apps /graphic
I need good wifi calls and a decent gps fix under 1 minute.
thanks for the advices
GPS lock in under a minute cant be guaranteed regardless of what ROM youre running. There are too many factors that go into the speed of GPS. All the ROMs in the dev section have working Wifi Calling and GPS so take your pick.
i've used most of the roms here other than weapon. i like phoenix blood. I had problems with MiUi due to wifi calling. It would work sometimes but not others. I guess it works for some people but not for others so its strange. I think phoenix blood is the best choice for me. it is very smooth and works very very well.

You are right, the first cause is that the g2x is the crappiest phone I ever had.
I sent back 3 phones to tmobile for various problems. After the 3rd they didn't gave me other phones, and told me that are NORMAL issues with the g2x, and I have to go to LG, not tmobile. I'm installing new roms only because of the problems. I usually use stock roms.

Then I would suggest looking for a new phone not a new ROM.
I used to have tons of issues with getting a GPS lock, then when I was configuring my current ROM I discovered this little.setting marked as "GPS source", now I don't know of this is a stock option or something on the ROM, but ever since marking it as internal, I get instant locks, whereas before even with GPS fixes and GPS apps it was still a pain to get a lock. Can't comment on wifi calling, never use it.

I'm looking for a new one,
before I spend AGAIN a lot of money on a phone, I want to be sure I'll buy a model that actually works. For the moment I would like to have an usable g2x
Load up weapon 3.0 rc1. Take your time. Let it sit for 10 minutes. Reboot. Let it sit for 5 minutes. Reboot. Load New Clip and follow the same procedure and log in and enjoy. If you need details pm me.
I'm trying weapon and newclip. Doesn't work.
Before gps was hooking some satellites but didn't fix. Now doesn't even see satellites. I think I have to survive without gps and buy a real phone asap.
Never again LG, and I'd like also to switch carrier but unfortunately I need the wifi calling
Did you not get my pm? Also, I found weapon to be extremely unstable and New Clip to be more stable but still too unstable.

have a look at your gps.conf. make sure its using the proper ntp servers.
bonk I just installed the rom, cannot find the kernel.
i think I already checked the gps conf I ll do it again,
thanks

Try running weapon without the clip. For me it has the fastest GPS compared to the rest of the ROMS. It's not as fast as I would like, but I'll take the fastest I can get.
Recently I've noticed a lot of battery use when the phone is supposed to be asleep. (Rom -- old Vahalla Final). Battery life used to be okay. I ran cpu spy and better battery stats and found out the phone was not going into deep sleep mode at all. Where do I go from here?

under "kernel wakelocks" it says "ste-gps-interface" 93.6 % but I almost never use gps.
then "vbus_present" 19.9%
"synet"3.2%
"powermanagerservice" 1.8 %
"radio-interface" 1.5%
"max8998-charger"0.1%
and the rest are 0%.
so what is "ste-gps-interface"? There are some threads on it. The only time I switch on gps is for this speedometer-radar detector app that I haven't used in months.
partial wakelocks are negligible.
Under alarms I am getting 61 wakeups for Yahoo mail which makes sense as I'm on too many email lists. I've now frozen the Ymail application since I don't want email notifications on my phone anyway. the next highest is 21 wakeups for maps and I don't know why that is.
Sounds like your ROM/kernel's GPS handler is screwed up.
My suggestion would be another flash of your ROM without a wipe, reboot to system, unlock phone and accept any SU request popups, wait 10 minutes, and then if you had a custom kernel reboot to recovery, flash your kernel, reboot to system, wait another 10 minutes... and check Better Battery Stats to see if GPS is still going nuts. If so, you'll probably need to wipe system and just follow those steps again.

Unchecked everything in settings / location services and see if that makes a difference.
Do you have GPS turned on or off when your getting that wakelock? If it's off turn it on and leave it on.
Maps and GPS rings a bell. Something about maps reporting your location periodically comes out of the dusty portions of my memory. Might want to do an XDA and a Web search on that.
Yep...

Believe that I saw something about Maps still running even when it's frozen, so you actually have to uninstall it.

I'm forced to restart my phone everyday ,when I don't it becomes really laggy, the phone stutters when I scroll , when I swipe between the homescreen, when I switch between apps, I'm running stock kit Kat with Franco kernel r33, but I remember well the same used to happen when I had my nexus 4 and everything was stock I just had root .
Just closing all opened apps doesn't solve the problem .

Nope. Everything stock at the moment but I've also used Franco r33 and didn't have that problem then either. If you're just using the recent apps screen to close your apps that might not be enough since it'll only list foreground apps and not background services which would more likely be the culprit. If you aren't already, try using an advanced task killer app (I can't recommend any as I don't use them) and try killing services one by one until the lag stops so that you can figure out which app/service is causing it.
There is no reason to use a task killer or to kill all apps.

I've never restarted my phone due to "lag." My current uptime is about 3 weeks. I'm bone stock.
Sent from my Nexus 5
Never restart. Faux r33 too
Try restoring the factory image and running it for a day or so without any extra apps. At least then you'll know if the phone is faulty. It's likely to be an app or two that are using a lot of memory, but I thought the mighty Nexus could cope with anything!
I have stock ROM, no root, since launch and I've used it everyday 24/7.
No lag problems, never had the need of rebooting it, as a matter of fact sometimes it has been on for more than a month without a poweroff or reboot.
While I've not "had to" restart my N5 due to lag, I have gotten into the habit of restarting it every night when I recharge. I started doing this when google play services (old version) was going haywire and sucking down the battery every now and then.
I only restart my phone when it's really needed (like an app requires reboot and etc)
I restart my phone maybe once every two days or so just to start fresh. Same with your computer restarting it will eliminate processes that you may have started and not ended or background processes running and so on and so fourth.
I only restart when the device doesn't sleep. I find after a day or 2 Google now keeps the device from sleeping. A reboot fixes it right up.
Never experienced lag. Running stock, gravity box, apex launcher and Franco kernel

Having to restart your phone that frequently is not normal. Not that it would help a lot, but have you tried switching to ART?
OP, how many apps do you have? Anything else you modified but the kernel? Overclock, underclock, UV, etc.? Give us more infos.
I recently set up my tasker profiles for morning - morning commute - work and home. The last one I have is a nightly reboot at 4am. I just have the tendency to restart my devices daily. Memory dump and fresh start every morning never gives me any issues.
Look into it.

This is what I use as my daily driver and only reboot when an app requires it or once every two weeks when I let it die for battery preservation

I never restart my phone unless there's a need to flash something (ROM update, kernel, etc.).
Also, I think my phone feels smoother than before, especially when I don't clear anything in recent apps.
So i just flashed back the stock kernel and everything went back to normal, I guess I'm done with custom kernels, I've always had bad experiences with them, I don't know if I'm really picky and other people don't notice it, but I can't believe I'm the only one who experiences lag while on custom kernels, maybe the're too agressive trying to save power?

Strange indeed. Could it be a network message of some sort? Though I haven't heard of it before, it's possible that it is a network connection acknowledgment of some sort.
here are my findings..

smiley appearing after loosing and regaining signal (doesnt matter if it has data enabled or not)
apparently theres a sim toolkit in every sim from TELCEL, i thought that it might be the main issue (toolkit is some services the network provider has )
current solution: changed runtime from dalvik to ART, has been almost 24 hrs without that smiley... just fyi

This is a simple question, but I'm wondering if the answer is complex...
With Android 5.1 and below, Google backed up Apps, and certain system settings, etc, but NEVER app data itself.
With 6.0, I noticed some apps (depending if they're compatible with google API's) back up and restore app data as well, included with the app restoration.
You may ask, why would this guy not want google to restore app data?
Simple... In my testing for a seperate issue, I ran into a serious wake lock problem. After a full RUU, full wipe, and reinstallation of a Marshmallow ROM on my M8, I am getting constant wakelocks and battery drains after all my apps are restored with their data.
I would like to test to see if it is faulty data possibly restored with an app, but that unfortunately gets restored with Google's App backup now.
Anyone know if there's a way to system wide wipe app data? NOT just the cache? Or just tell Google only to backup Apps and not data?
Thank you!
The answer is simple although it's probably not what you want to hear. Don't let Google restore your apps. Do it the old fashioned way. Start clean and install your apps as you need them.
If you're not willing to do that, I'd suggest using Titanium Backup to restore your apps instead of Google. With TB you can choose to restore apps without the data. If it were me though, I'd just bite the bullet and install them one at a time. Seems to me that in a case like yours, that would be the best way to go.
Make a backup of what you have now with TWRP. Then start fresh. If you figure out what's going on, you could maybe restore the backup and fix what needs fixing on it.

Well, just want to provide an update...
It may not be marshmallow causing this after all. I just did a full clean flash into Viper 4.6.1 (android 5.0.2)
During the day and evening phone was fine. Over night is when the wake locks started happening sporadically. In about 6 hours, dropped about 10%. I checked Wakelock Detector app, and it seems google play services is really pumping out those wakes.
I don't really use bluetooth, I only have 1 device even paired with my phone (my car which disconnects when turned off). But I do keep bluetooth Enabled
I just charged my phone to 100%, turned on Airplane mode + wifi. I'm going to monitor during the day. Is there a way to detect within wakelock detector exactly what part of android is causing this? It doesn't seem like an app itself, because the wakes are coming from android system. Or could an app be causing the google play services wake?

A day before this, I temporarily went back to a 5.0.1/5.0.2 ROM, found out it was an app or two trying to destroy my battery in the background with high GPS usage. After adjusting and fixing, Phone drained normally, maybe like 4% a whole nights of sleep.
Fast forward, I reflash Marshmallow ROM, set it up, and no more wakelocks/excessive battery drain. I charge the phone with my QC2.0 Charger (QC probably isn't enabled anyway in kernel, but didn't make a difference to me) from about 50% to 100% and unplug, and go to sleep.
This morning I woke up to phone at 86%. I check wakelock detector, and power history, nothing out of ordinary. Scratching my head at this point, I restart the phone, and BAM, phone is at 35%.
Some points below
1) I believe it was the first time I charged the phone fully, not sure if that had anything to do with it. I've never needed to calibrate battery in past...
2) Wifi was strictly on 2.4 Ghz. Cellular coverage is good. GPS is on, but not being used.
This sounds like a longshot, but I'm leaning to the kernel probably not supporting QC2.0, and it being detrimental to charging the phone. Possibly ROM thinking it's enabled, but kernel is disabled. So right now I'm charging the phone to 100% using a computer USB port (500mA max) just for testing purposes.
Have anyone ever seen this before?
