Well, looks like it went bad hardware. You can try taking the device apart, and check connections for broken or looseness, , or take it to a shop for repair and they can do this.
It doesn't look like a software issue if you went stock and the issue was still there.

It Happened to me once before and just worked after flashing another rom so i thought it could be the same problem and tried another roms but no result
Iam not that good in taking things apart (never could get things one piece together again )
if you know a tool to check for hardware just to be sure where the problem is and repair shops here in my country are not any better than my skills

[Q] Help: Gps not working as it should.

Hey guys,
My gps isn't working accurate.
First off it worked pretty good but when I changed to a custom rom (android revolution Hd) it didn't anymore.
When i use google maps, it takes a damn long time to get a fix on my position and when it does it stays accurate for about 5 seconds and then it starts to change to a street next to me then to another side... etc. . Also when i am standing still it jumps for my location to 50meters ahead of me and behind me, changing my speed to 20km/h ... I think you get the problem. Also the same problem on navigon (navigation software) it is constanly rerouting me because of the inaccurate position. So its not an application issue.
I flashed the rom as it should be, with boot.img through fastboot and zip file in cwm. Except for the gps there are no other issues.
Then i flashed the original rom in cwm with boot.img in fastboot, still the same problem.
I then tried CM10 and it became even worse... every 20 seconds it gave me a position update in maps and with navigon there wasn't even a update because it couldn't get a fix.
And i also used fasterfix on every rom except the original one (not rooted) to set my gps to europe.pool.ntp.org or something like that...
Now i am trying to revert to android revolution HD but first my battery has to be charged above 10% and it goes damn slow because of the bricked boot (made a mistake while changing form CM10 to And rev HD) Can't flash the and rev HD yet but does somebody in the meantime know a solution ?
Somebody ??
Could it be a problem with the kernel ? because i didn't flash one separatly
Does somebody has a solution ?
Unfortunately, I also have the same problem with rom coredroid and igo primo aid to some expert please
thanks
I had the same issue when I moved from Stock to the Modaco Ir5 Vanilla ROM, my GPS didn't even go as far as finding my location inaccurately, it didn't work at all. Hence I couldn't use my maps/navigation.
I am now running the Slim Bean ROM and everything is working great. I am no expert, but have you always done the usual 'full wipe data > clear cache partition > clear Dalvik cache' while flashing new ROMs?
For your charging issue, maybe try this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646135
My phone is now allright but you i'll try the rom you are speaking about and see if the gps works better.
and... Also tried another kernel (eternity) but it still didn't work
I had this issue and had it fixed after sending my phone to service 3 times.
The first time they only did a reset, didn't help.
Second time they changed the wifi, GPS module, didn't help.
I sent them a recording of the problem on the third time. This time they changed the motherboard and it finally got fixed.
Remember to tell them that the issue is specially visible when GPS and WiFi are both on.

auto rotate gyroscope sensors not working

Hi, I recently flashed a jellybean in Rom on my HTC one x and the rotation stopped working. So then I decided to return to factory settings with an ruu. So I did that and it was functioning again. So I reinstalled jb still worked.I then decided to try the 4.2 camera on my one x and it stoped working again, I then tried the ruu but this time it did not work. Next day I go home from class decide to unlock and relock the bootloader and it worked again, I then tried to install a in Rom ( once again) but this time it did not work. So I tried the ruu again, didn't work, tried unlock and relock bootloader, factory reset, wipe cache, everything and yes screen rotation is on. I alsotried the app android sensor and it showed my accelerometer/gyro not working. Can someone explain how to fix because its hard for me to believe that its hardware since it happens after I install a Rom or flash something. Please help.

That can happen from time to time with gyros. Even if you get it to work with the right RUU, then you reset the device, it might stop functioning again. I'd say your motherboard needs to be replaced. You can always try with different ROMs and stuff but my thought: your HW is problematic

don't think so, every person who encountered errors like this were on cm10 and its kernel ncx, theres should be something wrong with those things... or people don't flash it correctly
I have this problem as well, but I'm using ARHD rom, right now.
Although I also think it's more a hardware fault, I'm not really 100% sure about it.
Sometimes a new Rom flash or a reset can fix it.
But after a few reboot it gets stuck again :-/
So confused about this problem too
Although, my phone is unlocked now and got Hboot 1.33. I'm gonna wait till the official RUU is out and reset my phone fully (with locked bootloaders) before sending it to HTC for repair.
Maybe you should do that too
I had this problem too. It was fixed for a while after I flashed stock rug but then I clashed another recovery and wham they got knocked out again. Then I installed viper, cm 9 still not working. Installed latest paranoid android 2.53 and they are working again oh and I have latest twrp recovery installed. I really can't say if it is hardware or software. Maybe a mixture of both. I dunno. Only just flashes pa this morning but I have rebooted and they still work. Usually it will get knocked out if I reboot so I'll see what they are doing after a week or so. I'll probably keep pa on here until my official j b OTa is released. I think it did have something to do with either that ncx kernel or a recovery I tried. As that what knocked them out each time. Good luck in fixing it as different people gave had different things that fix the problem. For me it was reverting back to stock ruu. It was 4.03. 1.29..... something. But it also was fixed when I flashed latest paranoid android. Just a fee things to try....

GT-I9195 compass not working properly, possibly magnetometer issue

Hi everyone. Compass is stuck in my s4 mini. From sensor test (*#0*# then sensors) I can see this (see attachment). It seems like magnetometer is not calibrated. Any way to calibrate it (apart from usual methods like 8 figure or rotate phone around tre axis since I already tried them and they didnt worked) or reset it to stock values? Tried factory reset too.
thanks a lot guys.. I really need help, It may be an hardware issue but I want to try everything via software before send it to sammy
Please help guys, tried wipe cache and dalvik cache too. Send phone to samsung is the last thing I want to do due to my knox 0x1.
I have the same problem. I have tried to rotate phone along his three axis, while in sensor screen. Phone vibrate and light green during this operation and "need calibration " disappeared... Now only number "3" is displayed.
Unfortunately, I tried calibration in sensor screen too but nothing happens. Always "need for calibration 0".
Solved reflashing the whole firmware with odin... calibration now works.
Found out that the problem was the kernel. As soon as I flash a kernel different from the stock one, compass get stuck. On stock rom and JB at least... be careful.

Broken Accelerometer and gyroscope

I noticed that for some unknown reason my accelerometer and gyroscope just stopped working. I have managed to fix it and thought I would just give my story in case anyone else has this problem.
I did drop my phone but not badly and it landed on a relatively soft floor.
I tried factory resetting battery, pull, and full wipe and reinstall of custom roms. NONE of these options worked.
The only thing that managed to reset it was doing an update through Odin with an official samsung rom 4.4 that I downloaded from samsung
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/
This was the only way to reset the accelerometer and gyroscope sensors, it also updated the baseband version to a kitkat 4.4 compatible one so I suspect if I do go back to the custom roms again (I was on Carbon Rom) this baseband update will stay with the device.
Anyway it is all working now and I am very happy the updated samsung rom in much much better and more debugged than the stock rom that it had when I got it so I think I am going to try it out for a while and see how it goes I will undoubtedly go back to custom roms but in terms of recovery it is nice to know that a flash of the official rom will truely and fully reset and calibrate the sensors like the gyroscope and accelerometer.
cheers
