I'm on Doc's 6.2 JPY.
Just when I thought I had everything running perfectly, I go to use my GPS and find that I can only get a lock within 3100m (?!). When on stock JPY I had very quick GPS locks and very accurate. When I get this running, phone should be perfect... I hope I am wondering how this ROM could mess it up?
What kind of fixes are available for this?
Thanks in advance
Give this a try. I have had some sucess with it.

Hello Ian. After going into the dailer, I enter the sequence and the numbers disappear off the screen. What does it mean by send?
EDIT: I had to use *#*#3214789650#*#* to get into it. Thanks
Grab sgs tools from the market, go into the secret codes section and look for gps test and settings click that and follow his instructions above.

Hi
I am on Stock Spice 2.3.4 - build 5012_3_18D.
in Settings > about phone > status - I see "My phone Number" , which is different from my current sim(I changed my number sometime back)
Is there some way to change it? Its messing up my Go SMS "Me" functionality.
I played around with smartflash yesterday and i checked the 'erase entire cp' which will erase my imei , thinking that it would unlock me full market access because the play store checks the imei to determine the country restrictions . when the phone booted up, it showed a strange korean message which i could not read and the only english letters were 'CP' . i think that had to do with me checking the 'erase entire cp'. now,where ever i go there is no signal , i think my phone is blacklisted because it did not have a imei . is there any way to flash a imei to my phone ?
Well I had to do this when my phone got security error. I found a tutorial in XDA, sorry I'm at school so I can't search it for you but I had to use Hyperterminal (try to Google : restore imei hyperterminal xda).
EDIT : What is strange is that my network was working fine and no strange message was showing, not like you.

Thank you !!!!!!!! but not at computer right now , can't do it
The tutorial did not explain clearly , i cannot find COM settings in hyperterminal and what i type in hyperterminal would not show up . hyperteminal would not detect my device , it only detected COM 17(my phone) in S/W Upgrade Mode .PLEASE HELP , i don't want to spend money buying another phone or go to the service center
So, you need to switch usb mode from AP to CP from hidden menu 3845#*970#. Then when you create a new connection choose com 24 or smth like that. it will work! just try more.

You need a HyperTerminal or other Terminal app that can connect to modem on COM port and run AT commands.
1. Connect phone by USB (phone should be on normally)
2. Enter 3845#*970# in dialer
3. Select Port Settings -> Select CP USB
4. Start hyperterminal, in COM settings select same port like in devide manager -> LGE mobile USB Serial Port, 115200bps
5. Type AT if response is not OK, change port number
6. Type at%imei, it should display your current IMEI
7. Type at%imei=x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x , where x,x,x... is your orginal IMEI number
8. Change again from CP USB -> AP USB
8. Restart
You should know that in many countries changing IMEI is illegal!

I now know what caused the problems! It was because i did not disable my sim security before i flashed the ics rom so my phone doesn't recognises the umts network after i flashed it .But after i flashed another gb rom, the problem becomes like pemanent or some sort of thing...............phone still cannot call........The problem most likely had to do with one of the ics roms and part of the problem should be of the 'erase entire cp' thing

Have you tried this:
Do a google search for "[your carrier name here] apn settings". On your phone in settings > mobile network settings > Access Point Names enter in the APN info you find. Maybe reboot too. That's my first guess
I want to restart GPS signal thru Service Mode by doing following steps:
-> type *#0011#
service mode shows up
-> menu press Back
-> menu Key Input enter Q
-> menu Key Input enter 0000
wait
After performing fallowing steps I can see "quick flash screen" it's like want to show me Main Menu but it can't.
Is T-mobile blocking access to main menu? I read on S4 to overcome this new modem is needed.
