Hey guys. I LOATHE posting new threads, but this problem has been plaguing me since I bought this phone, and I need to find out whether i'm being a retard, or whether my phone is a dud.
I recently just updated to the latest V21Y baseband using OTA. I have since gone back to Hellsfire ICS.
I've used the standard GPS.CONF. I've used many different kinds, I've tried Google Supl server, i've tried T-mobile. I get locks sometimes in 90 seconds, sometimes in 5 minutes. It's totally unreliable and annoys me that my old Sony X10 gets a lock in 1-2 seconds whereas this thing has caused me to get lost a million times.
I'm in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I've changed the NTP server to the Malaysian equivalent.
Still no cake.
To summarize:
1) It DOES lock....but after 90 seconds - 5 minutes
2) I use GPSTEST by Mike Lockwood in order to get my lock. I've used GPS Status & Toolbox by MobiWIA - EclipSim but that seems to be worse
3) i've tried a variety of different ROMs from Weapon, to Hellsfire, Eaglesblood. Same issues
Baseband: M6600A-SCAUTNZ-2.0.9720T 1 [Mar 11 2012]
Kernel:2.6.32.59 - CM9-faux123-050 [email protected] #39 SMP Preempt Wed May 9 (Does the kernel affect GPS performance?)
CynogenMod Version: 9.0.0 - HellFireSandwich_v1.9
Thanks

Although not in the same geographical location as you, I've had the same issues on all ROMs and Kernel combinations. I have found that the only combo that gets me a lock withing 1-3 sec. is the new BB on a stock rom. Give it a try!
To all the Note 3 rom devs/maintainers out there, there still seems to be a lot of people suffering from GPS lock failures.
There are in fact two unrelated issues -
1. Maps API does not properly trigger the hardware GPS (or causes it to reset during navigation) (issue resolved by Google as of mid-2017)
2. GPS sees satellites but never locks
Issue #1 has been present for over a year and after pouring through the LocationService and GPS code, I've got nothing. It seems to have something to do with either the voting process to keep the GPS hardware powered up, or concurrent access causing a reset when play services get involved. Still working on it. GPS Locker is an effective workaround, and would be a worthwhile include if the author allows it.
Issue #2, however, is an easy one to fix. It's due a bug in the GPS firmware. Someone at Samsung or Qualcomm clearly didn't understand how GPS works when they wrote the AGPS implementation, and included an option to specify an NTP server. NTP servers are redundant on a smartphone GPS. They are not accurate enough for GPS positioning (GPS time signal is required for a lock), and the system clock is more than accurate enough to utilize GPS assistance data.
The issue arises when distant NTP servers are specified (possibly timezone related), and it is enough to break the GPS implementation.
It turns out that if you point the NTP client to localhost (with no ntpd running), the AGPS implementation falls back on the system clock. This eliminates the need to use FasterGPS to specify a local time server.
I've attached a gps.conf file (zipped) that will always work reliably, anywhere in the world. Assisted locks take 5-10 seconds.
It would be great if we can put at least this issue to rest once and for all.
*edit* for anyone else who wants to use this file, simply mount /system rw, deploy the unzipped gps.conf to /system/etc (mode 644), and reboot. If you're not sure how to do this, hang tight until someone creates a flashable .zip or it (hopefully) makes its way into various ROMs.

This is something else interfering with the GPS. Can you try forcefully stopping Play Services just before you launch this utility?

I have seen similar behavior in the past, but I've got no idea what's causing it. It's as though something else is forming bogus NMEA strings and interfering with the hardware GPS.
But, I believe the checkmarks that appear briefly are indicating a GPS fix on the hardware side. It's just a question of killing off whatever else is interfering.
You don't have any location faking apps running by any chance?
Modify your gps.conf for your country.
Works for me like a charm.

This is one option, but honestly it offers no advantage over simply disabling NTP entirely. NTP is redundant for AGPS on a smartphone equipped with an accurate system clock (as we have).
Country-localized NTP for AGPS also has the huge disadvantage of failing when we need it the most: while travelling.
Hi,
I applied the fix based on the step by step instruction and I still have the Issue#2.
I use GPS Status from Play store for checking the GPS status. It shows that 0 fixed from 23 satellites.
Do you have any idea?

Hey buddy! I suffered a lot with GPS and the only file the worked for me was the one bellow. Just change Brazil for your country, restart your phone, download a GPS again and let your phone at open space for five minutes to see if works. If not, is time to look for another modem and bootloader. Give a feedback!

Hi Master,
I applied your config, rebooted the device.
I will get back to you once I can go outdoor with my phone.

Oh - if you're still having issues with gps.conf pointing NTP to 127.0.0.1, try refreshing your AGPS data; it could be a stale cache.
From GPS Status & Toolkit, hit Menu->Manage A-GPS state->Download.
Alternatively, Menu->Manage A-GPS state->Reset will allow you to try for a cold start, which could take up to 15 minutes to lock.
Hi All,
sauliiin: GPS is working now using your config with limitation (not as good as it should be). Waze or any other navigation software seemingly work fine. But if you test the GPS with GPS Status software you can see that the number of FIX satellites periodically changes between 0 and X(X depends on the visibility of the sky). It means that in one moment you have for example 9 fixed sats while the other few moments this number is 0(of course I was in a steady position, without clouds in the sky). I do not know wheter it is related to your config or GPS status software cannot handle your config.
lambgx02: I tried everything with your config without any success.
Once more a big thank to Sauliiin for his hard work to find a working solution.

Actually, that's quite fascinating.
I do see the same behavior on occasion; a perfect, steady fix, periodically interrupted once per second. I'd really like to know what it's all about. Maybe LocationServices injecting bogus position data into the HAL GPS stream.
Interesting that you aren't having success without NTP. Is your system clock calibrated against the cellular network?
Yes, my system is calibrated.
There might be other solution suggested in another thread: changing of my modem version to older one might solve the GPS issue.
At the moment I cannot confirm that.
I will test it during the weekend.
i lose 3d lock after my accuracy improves beyond 150m once GPS test is loaded. Anything higher, 3d locks. I get quick lock blips below 150m. Anyone?
Just want to add something! My GPS was a crap for a long time... Since I dont remember. Tryed lots of gps.conf and the most I could do is make a little better.
So, if you are facing the same. Is time to try a new modem! It will be a pain in the ass and sometimes the modem fromyour region or even the latest one wont work good for you... So, what I reccomend is download some of the latest versions and try and try.
Just for example: I tryed the lates brazilian modem and got no fix. Tryed the last modem I found, got a fix, but it keep fixind and losing for last than a second. What I found was the best for me as Phone_N9005XXUGBPF1
Hope I helped... If you have a crap GPS! Probably ther is a fix, just dig! Here, in this topic we have at least 3 good gps.config, now it time to try modems!
Hello,
Service: Tmobile, Phone: Pixel 3a, rooted, Magisk
I'm able to setup my Tmobile phone's hotspot and share data to my devices. However, it's limited to ~0.5Mpbs. I've found many guides, Magisk modules, etc. I managed to get my Laptop/PC to get over this throttle limit by:
*Using the "VPN Hotspot" app which masks the laptops data so it looks like its coming from the phone
*Set TTL on Laptop/PC to 65
Issue: I can't set the TTL on many devices that connect so they still get throttled. Using an app like "TTL Editor" doesn't work (it fails), because I'm guessing I don't have the requirements: "Kernel support for Netfilter TTL packet mangling for your kernel (xt_HL.ko)" https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.segin.ttleditor&hl=en_US&gl=US
I tried stock ROMs Android 10 & 11. I also tried LineageOS18.1 which mentions this module so was hoping it would work: https://github.com/LineageOS/android_kernel_google_msm-4.9/search?q=xt_HL , but perhaps more needs to be done? I ran into things like iptables patch-o-matic https://netfilter.org/projects/patch-o-matic/index.html, not sure if this is needed, but cant find any info on how to even patch if that's needed.
CMD:
su iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -j TTL --ttl-set 64
Error: iptables v1.8.4 (legacy) unknown option "--ttl-set"
Doesnt do anything either:
echo "65" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_default_ttl
I have career in computing/dev, but my Linux is limited & have never compiled a Kernel. I found this: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/sargo/build but if I even got that far and was able to succeed, I'm not sure how to add this module - or if that's even what I need.
Any help or a clue would be much appreciated!
Some info for anyone that comes across this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-tether-lineageos-18-1.4295601/#post-86183959
