[Completed] Satellite GPS not working on Galaxy S4 (GT-I9506) - XDA Assist

Hello!
I don't know if it's the right place to ask, sorry if not. Anyways, let's get to it.
So yesterday I rooted my Android 5.0.1 Lollipop on my Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I9506). I wanted to play Pokemon GO without having to move out of the house, so I used a youtube tutorial on how to do it, which I can provide a link to, but I can't do it here, as I am new on this forum.
So, in the tutorial I was told that I need to have my Android rooted and xposed framework installed, I rooted my phone, but I failed to install xposed framework using TWRP custom recovery, so I gave up. During the process I've installed three applications that are mentioned in the tutorial, which are: Mock Locations, Hide Mock Locations and Team Rocket. I selected Team Rocket app as my mock location app, and I've allowed mock locations. Today I got to know that soon I will be able to change my phone for a better one, that's why I want to clean it completely and make everything work perfectly fine on it.
So my question is, what could be the cause why my satellite GPS can't find location?
Additionaly, but not necessarily, as I think I can find it somewhere in the internet, what can I do to delete custom recovery and revert it back to fabric one, as well as unroot my phone and just completely revert all the system changes and stuff so it will be like it just was turned on for the first time?
There could be some spelling mistakes etc, sorry for that.

[Completed] [Q] Pre-rooted? Partial root?

I have the Hipstreet Titan 2. There is barely anything anywhere I have found, besides a hint these devices come partially rooted, & Super user needs simply be installed. I've done this, with nothing but errors as a result. Root checker confirms the device isn't properly rooted.
If it makes any difference, it was a 'kids' version (Kids mode app came preinstalled lol). My son just doesn't bother with it, so I thought I'd have a tinker rather than let it collect dust, but it looks like me and two other people have it in total. Only thing found on YouTube is tutorials on how to install apps from Google Play....
Does anyone else have this tablet, or know how to get full root?
Thanks

[Completed] [Q] KATA iDROID S

Hello Dev Team!
I have a KATA IDROID S running on GINGERBREAD 2.3.6.
I have tried rooting my device so that I could be able to remove bloatware from the device. I was pretty happy with what I did.
However, when i deleted one of the system apps (I assumed this was not needed since this was a third party store, (FISH STORE - more like another version of GOOGLE PLAY), thats when everything went crazy. I am not able to boot the phone and if it does, it does not show EVEN THE MENU. Unfortunately, I was not able to back up the stock ROM
I was wondering if you could point me out as to where i could download a STOCK or CUSTOM ROM for the device. a tutorial wold be splendid.
I have faith in you guys!
Thanks in advance!

Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
I think something less sinister than popups and redirects being built into the ROM is going on. The first thing to do is download a root checker app, and make sure you are not rooted without knowing about it (as it will affect the next step).
The other thing to do is a factory reset. Be aware, this will wipe apps downloaded, settings, and in some cases pictures taken and other files downloaded. It will, though, keep the operating system / firmware / ROM intact (which is a good thing).
Once that is done, and basic setup is done, don't install any apps yet. Browse around with the stock browser and see if any of the weirdness has returned. If it hasn't, then congratulations, it was a rouge app. If the weirdness persists, then it could be either a clever rouge app (virus), or you may have been right after all.
If it does persist, then please add a post to this thread:

[Completed] I need help! Android effected with virus.

Hello! I have (eSTAR GRAND HD QUAD CORE 3G [MID1058G] S/N: 1058142300251 , by downloading apps from internet i somehow managed to get a virus. I got this app called "clean master" which after searching for viruses it found some trojan viruses but even if i disable the service it would still work , and i wasin't abble to delete it because it was system app. that make my tab to lag and go insane( open diffrent windows, automaticlly scroling and stuff, typing by it self) and wierd apps like omniConnect , and porn apps has been installed. The problem is that even if i delete them after reboot or even hard reset the apps are still there and no effect at all! By doing so reaserch the thing i need to do is reinstall my rom but i can't even find a custom recovery it's probably because my tab is not that popular so popular creators like , clockworkMod , TWRP don't support my device. Then i found this forum know alot about this stuff like flashing roms and stuff so i decided to make a post.
If anyone know how to fix my problem with viruses please let me know.
If you say that i need to reinstall my rom please tell me how because im not really good with androids so i don't really know how to do it.
