Is my Tilt (GPS) possessed???

I've been using my at&t tilt with tomtom flawlessly since I purchased it earlier this year. A few weeks back while visiting the cemetary (paying respect to some past relatives), I tried using tomtom to help plot down where some of the graves were located.
After waiting a few minutes for the gps to acquire a signal, it eventually got 1 bar, but showed my location about 220+ km(~150 miles) off! It would also show my travelling speed to be incredibly fast (like the speed of a plane), but would eventually slow down to drving speed and it would show me driving along a road... I never watched it long enough to see where exactly it was going (or where it was going to end!?)
Keep in mind this is in a cemetary, no where near any obstructing trees or buildings, nothing but blue sky. I tried turning the radio off (airplane mode) and back on a few times, reloading tomtom etc, but everytime it would show the same thing, starting back somewhere flying really fast...
So geez, I thought that was kinda eerie.. so later that day (and away from the cemetary) I tried it again and it seemed to work OK. But lately I've noticed this intermittent behaviour again, and the only resolution I've found was to simply do a soft-reset and everything would appear to work ok. Has anyone else had this similar issue?
Is it simply:
a) a gimped up qualcomm chipset, or
b) a bug in the OS/driver/stack, or
c) or is my phone posessed???!

[Q] GPS after the JP0 update

Hi all,
just wanted to know whether you experienced any GPS improvements after the update?
Mine seems to be functioning a a lot better, however, it turns off by itself after like 10-15min of use. The little satellite dish disappears and I lose GPS tracking even though the GPS is turned on in the notification bar. I have to turn it off then on and it starts working again but it's annoying as hell.
Anyone else experiencing this?

GPS test
I used it today for about 1,5 hour, while driving.
It took a few minutes to start up. It was pretty precise in nav mode.
I lost the GPS signal one time, where I also lost the data connection. (At the time i was also playing with the phone.
Over all a good experience.

Tried yesterday, found satellites instantly, can keep gps lock, but still have some accuracy issue.

i used it on the way to work today with track booster and it seemed much better
however i tried again on the way home to test and lost data connection
once you loosed connection you dont seem to be able to get it back you have to restart the phone which is annoying
i will not say its fixed untill i have used it more and got consistant result

Just as bad as ever here, not locking many sats and still keeps losing them.

I can def use the phone for turn by turn navigation now, which is a massive plus.
But after working flawlessly for a couple min, it loses the GPS connection and doesn't even attempt to reconnect.
I then switch GPS off, then back on and it's working again.
This has got to be a software glitch.

still very bad. sometimes it simply cannot get a lock at all. this happens away from buildings and under clear sky. sometimes it gets a lock instantly but loses it quite quickly.

Locked on 7 sats.
For me, waaaay much better with Froyo.

used mine on the way home from work and was a little better but still jumped around when stationary

Wifi Does not work After sleep mode

hi there ,
does anyone else have this issue , where wifi does not work after waking up from sleep mode. even tho the wifi is on and with max signal on the noticfication bar.
The only fix i found so far, is just turning off wifi and turning on after that.
is there any thing to fix this??

This seems to be a common issue with the O2X and G2X. As for a fix we are all hoping the new update expected at the end of this month will resolve it.

i also had this isssue with samsung galaxy s 1 before.

I've had this issue but mine didn't show any wifi signal or icon on the notifications bar.
when I tried to switch wifi off and on again, the phone rebooted

I have problem with ASUS RT-N56U but no with Zyxel P-330W EE. If I config static IP in O2X, then connection is stable But pings with screen-off is very big (120..1500ms)

I've this problem too! Sitecom wl-309 and my O2X

mine most of the time, turning off and on again doesn't help. it shows the signal and the strength but since uesterday couldn't connect. then all of a sudden the connection is there. and it just started yesterday. i have the phone since 3 weeks ago.
v10b, base 405, rooted.

Wifi Shutting on when scrren off

I have a Nexus 6, flashed with the 6.0 factory image.
I have my wifi set to always on (for tmobile calling). After then screen locks it shuts wifi off. This is great for my battery but bad for my staying connected. At work cell coverage is spotty and without wifi always on I can get 30min + delay in getting text/calls. This has caused a few problems with my boss thinking im off screwing around and ignoring him.
Anyone else notice this? or have a way to keep wifi always on.

My wifi randomly drops since I updated to 6.0. It is annoying. I am not sure if it is tied to the screen shutting off or not.

Yeah it's getting supper annoying. I'm at wits end with it. Might flash back to 5

Probably it is related to this bug: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=188909
When I turned off my WiFi, it was still running, showed in the battery history detail. It was OFF, so I expect it's also OFF there. But it's not OFF. Although today, I don't have that problem.
So please STAR that bug to get more attention.

Have you all tried HellsCore kernel with the "old" WiFi drivers that he built? Apparently it resolved issues for people.

Happen to have a link? Had hoped to stay stock for awhile but ATM its killing me.

E5 Play Bizarre Data-Related Recurring Loss of Service

Several months ago out of nowhere the radio stopped working on my XT1921-3. When the phone initially booted up, I could see it get a 4g signal and then switch to no signal. I checked the sim and did some other troubleshooting but in the end I had to wipe the phone and flash the stock firmware to get service back.
This has happened several times since then so I've been trying different things to fix it. Last time it happened, I restored a backup of my data partition and that fixed the problem. So I have limited the issue to something data related and not system or firmware.
I don't know if it's a rogue app causing the issue or what. I guess that will be my next set of tests.
Has anyone else had this problem?

I have a XT1921-3 and i have experienced my data cut out (for 5-10 minutes) (or slow to some ungodly low speed that isn't good for anything..) several times over the last two months however my bar and in settings it says im still connected to LTE and in a few signal apps it says im online but there's clearly no data or if so it's dang sure not anything close to LTE. Sorry if this lil paragraph is worded a little different. Been working that OT.
Edit
Added: I just toggle airplane mode and reboot but sometimes that doesn't even work. It's like when it's out it's out and signal isn't reading true.

Thanks for your post. I managed to update the E5 Factory Restoration thread with the latest firmware package for the E5 Play and I have not experienced the problem since. You might want to head over to that thread and download the latest. It might fix your issue as well.
