Hello there.
My GPS stop working a few days ago. There's any way to test the GPS?
I tried many GPS test apps, but all of them said "GPS signal not available".
I'm using Gnabo_v4, but when in stock rom it stoped.
Edit: solved opening the device and plugging again the gps. When I sent my device to technical assistance they unplugged mine gps and forgot it. Now my warrant is over m so I decided to follow a YouTube video that shows how to open it.

Hi I have a problem with my GPS and I blame it all on TomTom, not sure what has gone wrong...
I decided to try the TomTom software I got with the phone, since Google Maps felt somewhat limited. I installed it, downloaded the free city map and started the program.
It told me it couldn't find the GPS and after trying a few different settings I got it to work. But it didn't get a signal, so I decided to test Google Maps and see if it worked there. It didn't and same with WiFiFoFum, in WiFoFum it just says reconnecting.
I checked the assisted GPS software to see if I needed to update the data there to help the GPS along. There should have been downloaded data there, but there wasn't. When trying to update two things happen.
1) Connection failed
2) Download starts, reaches 100% and says "connection failed"
Since all this happen after I installed TomTom, I have now removed that software and re-booted my phone. Didn't help so I have been trying a few settings to see if I could solve the problem. I haven't managed so now I turn to this community.
So is there anyone who can help me out. The GPS is quite useful so I hate that I can't use it...
Thanks in advance!
Usually a soft reset will solve the problem.
Just to remind you that it can take more than 30 minutes (first time) before Tomtom get a fix.
Strange that it didn't work well for you, mine worked right away, but I didn't care for it...
Okay, so heres the problem...
I flashed this rom: [ROM][WWE][04-8-2009][ShEp's Rom Ver 3c][WinMo 6.5][Build 21500V2][TF3D RhodiumV1d]
And after that, I flashed the Raphael 1.12.25.19 Radio.
Everything works on my phone except GPS, for some reason when it tries to use the GPS it goes to the cannot connect screen. it shows Dialed:
I currently have ATT and turned off the internet service with AdvancedConfigTool. I don't know if this is the problem.
Thanks
Do you have AGPS turned on or off? It might be trying to connect to teh ATT network to use the A-GPS but is getting shut down by your internet not working.
Does the GPS eventually connect, or not at all?
some snapshots would be great
I disabled for my Fuze to connect to the ATT internet using AdvanceConfigTool. When GPS tries to work, the Dialed screen comes up and...
Dialed: (Blank)
That's it. In the settings it says A-GPS is on. I'm using Wifi btw.
Can anyone help me...

Disabling the AGPS worked for me. I just kept loosing GPS connection when it was enabled.

What program are you using?
You need to turn AGPS off. As far as I know, there is no way to use AGPS over WiFi. You will need to disable it in order to stop the pop-up.
[Q]GPS realy not working.
So, 1st post for me, same problem so i didn't want to open a new thread.
*Not HTC Fuze, but Touch Pro, Raph100, anyway same device.*
GPS, COM4, 4800, auto location on, agps on, does not lock.
Neither on gpsinfo, google maps, igo 8, htc gps tool. It just keep on searching, and showing lots of text in gpsinfo and htc gps tool, but no lock (left it at least 20 mins at the window).
Tried with quickgps, location set correctly, same result. I have stock battery.
ROM: EnergyROM 'Phoenix 2' (21885) |Dec 21
Radio: 1.14.25.05, same on 1.12.25.19.
Didn't test the gps on the original rom because the first thing i did when i put my hands on this phone was to change the rom
No warranty for this phone, so any help would be greatly appreciated. I just don't know what to do anymore.
up? problem still in place, any help appreciated
I have the same problem. same rom and same phone ie raphael and energy rom 24 dec. i used these tweakings but no use http://blog.mohdimran.com/htc-touch-pro-gps-problem-tweaking/
a help will be appreciated. i m about to try a stock rom.
Maybe post a reply if it solves your problem
up? not solved..
Try different Radios
It happen to me a long time ago a pair of times and now is back (thats the reason I found this post), first be patience a lot.
It seems to me like Radio problem, meens not every mix of roms and radios work nice with GPS and depends too wich country you use the GPS. So let's try and give enough time sky open to build the database and get first fix. Quick GPS can help (keep udated).
Like I said before I'm facing it right now I flash a new ROM and Radio problems began (Included so long to connect a voice call, fail data service, low bars on signal level, etc.) So I try 2 radios now first fix all except GPS the second I can get GPS fix but takes about 15 minutes every time so I will keep on trying I will tell my results.
just in case you can solve it let me know please.
Hi, recently i`m experiencing technical problem with my Asus.
I think since I installed PRIME1.7.
each time that I turn off the screen for more than a minute, the WIFI card doesnt stop turning off and on. Then I must reboot the tablet to be able to connect WIFI.
can anyone help on this plz. Now I`m running on PRIME 1.9 no_3g and still have the same issue.
I have the exact same issue. If I were to tap the power botton to sleep and leave it for a while then the Wi-Fi keeps switching from On and Off without staying on.
Only a hard reboot seems to bring the Wi-Fi back on.
I am on the latest Asus Firmware and Wi-Fi version 5.2.58
I had this same problem, it seems to be an issue with the latest google maps update. Go into settings>applications>Manage applications then find maps and uninstall the updates. It worked for me, might work for you guys.
I uninstalled updates for maps and it worked for me.
but to be fully honest, I also uninstalled a couple of applications that use the wifi connection ( freewifi, for access points in France)
Same problem here on a pretty-much daily basis. Sometimes multiple times per day. Just found the following thread on another site, which suggests it to be a DHCP lease problem:
http://www.transformerforums.com/forum/asus-transformer-help/4774-wifi-turning-off.html
it might be a ROM problem. I've tried prime, revolver and arhd and with prime and revolver I would get a lot of disconnects in a mesh 802.1x network, but arhd is much more stable (still disconnects once or twice in a 8hour block while i'm at work, but it disconnects and reconnects by itself pretty quick).
I got my daughter her tab 7.7 about 6 months ago & had been going on perfectly. Android version is 3.2 & I have no easy measures to update for the time being.
For internet connection she uses only my WiFi secure connection. It was working fine all this time.
Today she can't log to her Facebook account via the Facebook app. I checked it out to find that I can log in via the browser but not the app. I thought it may need updating and tried Google play store but I was astonished to find it not working too as it gives me "No Connection. Try again".
I noticed that the WiFi mark is white & not showing the green strength marks, but connection is confirmed by the WiFi name. I was shocked when I tried the software update from "about" when it gave me the "no connection message" despite working WiFi connection. Samsung app is working perfectly & I can update its applications.
Also funny thing happened, when I tried the browser it kept giving me certificate errors many times.
I tried the VPN as I googled around but nothing changed. Same problem.
Switching off & on didn't help either.
Any Clues??
Thanks
Most strange thing happened.
Everything is back to normal without me doing anything.
I left the tab for a while while writing the previous post.
When I came back I found the app update mark showing up, I turned on the WiFi & touched the update icon, the strength signal showed in the WiFi & update started the goggle app. All went normally. Facebook app worked & even the browser certificate errors disappeared. The software update in the "about" worked fine & checked & found no updates.
What is going on...
Can anyone explain to me what's happening?
Thanks

Try Power Cycling your modem/router. That often corrects connection issues. Presume other devices were connecting just fine?
Hi guys, so after using spoof location app for 1-2 days (like really less than an hour per day), now my Nexus won't find a location when its set to "Device only". I think it doesn't even connect with any satellites. What I tried is some of the "GPS fix" apps, wiping cache/dalvik, factory reset, new ROM, still the problem persists. The location is working properly on High Accuracy mode, but I need it to work in GPS only mode too...
Any ideas ?
Hey!
I too am facing the exact same problem on my nexus 4. So please post the fix if you find one!
