GPS No Fix. - Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently upgraded my Mate 7 to the MT7-L09C900B329 Rom from the Huawei Website, And my GPS Isn't working. I found this out the hard way by getting lost in the city! haha
I've tried all the GPS Test & Fix Apps and they haven't helped at all
I'm in Australia on the Vodafone network, Would flashing back to 4.4.2 ROM fix my issue? Does anyone have the Stock Vodafone Kitkat ROM? I'm not sure where to go from here, I can't find the stock ROM on the vodafone website, and i'm not sure if going to Marshmallow would fix it.
This is the ROM I'm using; My phone is NOT rooted and running the official ROM from Huawei.

[Q] Backuping the stock rom

Hello Guys,
I just bought a Samsung GT-S5570 Galaxy Mini. It's running Android 2.2 and I want to update it to 2.3.3 and get CyanogenMod on it.
I wonder how can I backup the stock rom, so I won't void the warranty after a rom update? If I would need to get it to warranty back with Android 2.2. Cause I can't find the stock rom nowhere.
up~ Any ideas anyone?
You probably already know this, but you would have to get the factory ROM directly from Samsung or your cell provider. If you do some searching around you might find it posted somewhere online. Best of luck and happy hacking!

[Q] gps not working since upgraded to jb 4.1.1.

Hi everbody,
It's my first post on this forum, hope that someone can help me. I have a htc one s with the 1.5 processor.
It is branded by TIM(italy). First when i bought it, i wanted the stock rom, so my brother tried to install it for me but he did not succeed.
Though he managed to unlock the bootloader.
A week ago i updated the soft to jb 4.1.1. Since then, the gps is not working(maps, facebook, weather, etc). I tried gps fix from play store, but was efficient for a few hours, then nothing. I've talked to the customer service from htc, and they told me that this is happening because i made the update to jelly bean with the unlocked bootloader.
First of all, can i make a downgrade ? Or can i debrand the phone ? And in both of cases,will the gps work ?
I also heard about a patch that will fix the gps ...
Thanks !

[Q] AT&T D850 Stock ROM with multi-apn

Hi all,
I have installed the CM12-20141225-UNOFFICIAL-d850 ROM and it runs ok. But, the only two reasons I moved from the stock to a custom ROM were since I'm not on AT&T coverage, the stock would not find updates (even connect to the update servers) and that it would not register to a 4G LTE network here in Brazil.
The first time I installed the ROM I'm using now, I could get no APN here and managed to correct that with a multi-apn.zip file provided on a thread somewhere here (sorry! I can't seem to find it again!).
I'm considering going back to the stock ROM as I did not enjoyed the CM12 ROM all that much.
I'm sure there are other ROMs I could try, but I'd like to know if this multi-apn.zip patch would work with the stock rom as well.
Thanks in advance,

I have encountered APN issues on more than one cm/aosp based rom.
I would suggest trying Illusion rom (5.0.2), as I have not had the issue on this one and I personally find it more feature rich than CM12.

[GPS ISSUE] HTC One M8 VZW - & CM12 based ROMs

First of all, this issue isn't just gonna get fixed by flashing a Sense-based ROM, then going back to CM12. This goes deeper than that...it seems to be working fine for guys running the same ROM with TMO and other carriers.
What does anyone know about GPS not being able to communicate with GPS satellites when running most CM12 ROMs with Verizon's 4.4.4 firmware on your M8? Could this be kernel related? Is it that Verizon 4.4.4 firmware (CDMA) is conflicting with something? Any input would be appreciated. Thanks!
same issue on Sprint m8

That does fix the issue for a lot of people and is recommended across devices when trying to get a GPS lock on an aosp Rom (example: vzw note 2) also, some people have to do it a couple times before it works. If it still isn't working for you you can try a clean flash to stock sense get the lock etc, and then copy gps.conf from /system/etc, restore your bAckup of cm12 and paste it in the same place (back up the original first), set perms to 644, reboot and hope for the best

Just so I said it, I've got the same issue on the sprint version.
Lost GPS
I did as you suggested and tried Skyfire. The gps worked But no service or mobile data (waa waa). I made a copy of the ect/gps file and replaced it once I flashed back CM 12. Un fortunatly that didn't do the trick. Thanks for the suggestion though.
