hi! today i've found a working solution for all users with non working GPS!
I know, my GPS has worked unter WM and the android SD Version update-cm-7.2.0-RC0-photonic-KANG-signed.
After the switch to 4.0.4. munjeni's ICS and the latest GPS Patch, on my phone GPS will not work!
after my search for a reason for a corrupt GPS i've tried some workarounds.
also to reinstall WM6.5!
the interested thing, also under WM, GPS is no more working. (windows is seaching and seaching ...... )
i've found a interesed note: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1498693
it seems GPS was blocked from an older andriod version!!!!!
in my case - the SD version you can see in the first line.
now i've reactived the saved SD version, start the GPS in google maps, it takes some secounds to found my location via GPS.
in this active state and working GPS, i've removed the battery!
flash back to the new LK and restored my whole saved ROM include the GPS fix!
after the boot, start your navi-software or google maps - now your GPS should works fine - you can see the icon in the left corner!!
also the sw tells me, my location was set by GPS!
thats great!
I hope, i could help all other users with munjeni's great custom rom 4.0.4. ICS!
PS: not working is his blue camera fix! -
I use the solution to modify the file to get the right result (but blue preview). that is ok for me!
also i can live with the 3G bug! If i want to google, I activate 3G and after browsing, i switch back to 2G.
bad is the mono audio! i hope, we will get an update soon!?
howto
mini howto:
to check, if your GPS blocked, save your current ROM!!
flash your original WM to your fon and look in google maps, if GPS find any satellites.
in my case, it does not found any satellites. (but it activated the GPS Modul).
the device was there, but it seems blocked!
now you have to flash to the Android ROM as you know, your GPS works correctly!
start that ROM and activate the GPS with an application (like google maps or an navigator software)
in my case, gps founds satellites during some seconds (10 or 20 seconds)
also the ROM tells me, my location was set through GPS.
in this state, you have to remove the battery!!!!
flash back to the latest LK and restore your ROM from the first!
boot, start google maps or navi and you will see the GPS in the left upper corner on your hd mini.
have fun and be happy
Thank you!
Thank you very much, dear pinky999!
Your solution helped me to re-enable GPS on my mini!
After reading your post I first tried the latest sdcard version I used - photonic CM 7.2 (this had no effect),
and then tried another sdcard android that I used before photonic - r175 with sense - AND THIS DID THE TRICK! HOORAY!
Thank you once more
Hello I recently bought this phone from geekbuying. The phone works perfectly, everything up to the smallest detail! Just the GPS.. It tried to search for a GPS and can't find one at all.. Google Maps finds a location around 2 miles away from me and that is the closest it gets to "GPS"
I have tried several things such as all the GPS fix things like GPS doctor and all that stuff.. I am just wondering if there is anything left I can do, I mean I can't change the ROM cause there is no CMR for this phone. It is currently rooted, I have also tried re-setting the whole phone and formatting it. And tried out GPS on safemode.
I have tried the A-EPS and the EPO download. But alas, nothing.
Thank you for your help if you can!
Hi guys,
I need help. Once I encrypted my phone. Location service/GPS is not working on my phone.
Before encryption. There is the location icon always comes up when I access something like Google Maps. even tried installing GPS toolbox. Able to see the satellites and all.
But after encryption, the location icon does not come up. But somehow in High Accuracy mode, it does get somewhere of an approximation of my location.(from network and Wifi).(This does not go well when you are navigating around)
Have you guys encountered this. I have even tried flashing the new L09 Rom and it is still the same.
Also searched around the forums (Looks like the old Samsung phones had this issue where after encryption the GPS would not work). But the post is way back in 2011. And they din follow up on the posts on how it was fixed.
I have factory reset my phone a number of times, flash new rom(the one shared on this forum)
Also played with the settings nothing happens. I still cannot get GPS to work after encryption.
Also another thing I notice is that during the encryption a strange error came up and say that Settings have stopped working. I do not know whether there is a coincidence or not and whether it has anything to do with this GPS problems..
Any help is welcomed. as having a phone with no GPS is really driving me up the wall.

Really sorry for late response - but you can fix this problem using attached file - this is apk from China version of Mate7 make you be able to give (or revoke) access to system data storages (including GPS) to applications.
I had the same problem as you - and using this apk i've fixed it successfully.
it doesn't work for me - can anybody sent printsceen of settings of this app?
Thanks
@nchee + @mireczeque
Have you BOTH re-flashed the stock rom by using the official HUAWEI procedure (i.e. three buttons pressed togheter and ROM saved on DLOAD folder)? If so, do you have ALSO applied a WIPE DATA FACTORY RESET plus a WIPE CACHE PARTITION?
I had some problems with APPS crashing when I tried restoring my HAM with B130. I WIPED everithing and THEN re-flashed fresh B130 from DLOAD sdcard procedure, and everithing worked perfectly. I hope this help.

Hi guys,
I've been using my smartphone since October 2017 and it has come the time to change the battery , which I did.
Now, i've noticed that my GPS is no more working. I mean not able to get some positions at all !
- No more driving using Google map
- I tried to reset position using tools like GPS reset and so on.
- Set the phone in Air plane mode.
I'm trying to figure out if something bad happened when I opened the phone ?
Anyone knows where is located the GPS inside the phone ? Or any comments ?
Thanks !
I may have find the reason , gps is no more working.
I realized that 1 pin out of 2 is broken.
Now I can only assuming that theses pins are used to get proper Gps signal.
Ah. so sad !
