for those of us running the kitkat builds (i've tried aicp and cm11), how is your gps on those roms?
edit - are you finding satellites easily?
Look in thread..Maybe that is an issue on that ROM..I was using only one 4.4.2 ROM and GPS worked fine..

Maybe you can apply this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13710492&postcount=2987
Evey one I've used has been fine
sygic aura 3.0 works great with LeDrOiD 3.0.5, at least for me.

Can you tell me how to push this file like it mentions in the post.
Have been having problems with GPS since CM7 stable, never had problems with it before.
Radio?

Could be just the rom. I know that some roms don't work properly for everyone. Just keep trying roms and if they all fail, then check to see if your GPS is actually working properly.
GPS is fine on InsertCoin A2SD V29
Using Ginger Villain 2.3 in combination with radio 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.08 and HTC-Ril_2.2.1.1003G no problem with the GPS.
I had a problem with GPS freeze but tried some different radios and get a fix in 30 seconds....
I think ALL Gingerbread ROM has a working GPS..I've tried a lot of ROM and it always works.

Well I have serious problem with the GPS when flashing other ROM than the LG stock. I have tried lots of ROMs like CM11 nightlies, vanir, carbon and none of them have working GPS. I have downloaded GPS Status apps and they give me no fix. With stock rom I have fix within 10-15 secs even the first time. The problem is described here.
I suppose that it has to do with google services and the gapps pack I flash (the banks one) but I can't find a solution.
Thanks! :good:
Hi
I have an issue about the wifi signal. When I use 4.4.2 KitKat Rom the wifi signal of my device seems to be lower than usual compares to
4.2.2 Rom at the same distance and the same router. Same In every 4.4.2 Kitkat Rom but 4.2.2 works fine. Please help.
Thanks.
Im too have that issue? and i think solution know dev like K2WL
I can't get gps to work, have tried multiple roms. Liquidsmooth, pa 4.6, liquid v4.0 lollipop even affliction stable zvd. tried with zve modem (what i rooted from) zv8, and cloudy's kk modem. Any suggestions?
So gps only works on cdma/evdo. Nothing on lte. Any ideas?
when you install new roms, try updating your PRL from system settings. I don't know if it works on all roms but it fixed my GPS when it wasn't working

Get a new phone or dedicated GPS device. The G2 is known to have hardware GPS issues. My GPS was intermittent, maybe worked 10% of the time. I sent my G2 back to LG under warranty for repair, they said they fixed the GPS antenna and when I got it back, my GPS won't work at all.
If you are having issues with GPS on AOSP based ROMS all you need to do is:
*flash a stock ROM (stock ROM is one based on the LG ROM that came with the phone I recommend this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-lg-g3/development/rom-stock-root-deodex-t2932683 )
*get a gps lock
*then flash or restore whatever AOSP based ROM you like.
GPS will now be working for you.
This has been a fix for GPS on AOSP based roms for years and I had to recently use it myself as I was getting no GPS on all AOSP based ROMS.
Also make sure that GPS isn't actually broken in the AOSP based ROM you are flashing because if GPS is broken in the ROM then obviously this isn't going to fix it. This fix is for people having GPS issues on ROMs that have working GPS which is currently all KK and LP AOSP based ROMs we have for the vs985. Hope this helps someone.
bump. Still seeing people posting about no gps on AOSP roms so bumping this in hopes that it gets seen more often.
Interesting. Just curious here: If I "Restore" a 4.4.4 ROM, get the lock, then Restore back my current AOSP Lollipop-based ROM, will that work? As in, is the GPS lock sequence stored in the GPS hardware flash or something?

Honestly I don't know why this fixes GPS I just know it does. Like I said in the OP this has been a fix for GPS on AOSP based ROMS for years as I learned this trick back a couple years ago on my LG Spectrum. I was one not getting GPS on any AOSP based roms but noticed most weren't having issues with it so I remembered this fix and tried it on my phone and I haven't had GPS issues since. Once you do this you should no longer need to again no matter how many roms you flash; just be sure to always get a lock on each ROM you flash before flashing a new one as that may cause the issue to comeback.
Bumping again because people are still constantly posting about gps being broken on AOSP based ROMS and don't know how to research the forums for solutions to their issues but would rather clutter threads with the same questions over and over and over.
Help
So does "get a gps lock just mean open up maps and get it to lock onto a gps signal?
