Hi,
I had a few problems with GPS in IZS so I search a bit and try to compile a fix. For me, this appears to be working... But other testers and appreciated
You just have to do the fowling:
In recovery, flash the attached zip
After reboot, using a app like GPS Test (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chartcross.gpstest&hl=en), clear AGPS data
Please, give feedback.
UPDATE:
I've uploaded a new fix (GPS_fix_2_world). This is a different fix from the other, one that isn't depended on any continent.

UPDATE2 - NEW FIX - From Mackey
I've upload a new GPS fix - GPS_FIX_WORLD.zip
This fix is based on Mackey/ShenDu/MokeeOS's ROM, and to be sincere, it is the best fix I've ever seen so far. I've got a lock within a minute without any data/wifi on, without any AGPS data...
Steps for this fix:
Turn off wifi/mobile data (so that it wont download any new AGPS data)
Clear the AGPS data (to be a clean slate)
Reboot to recovery
Flash the fix
Clear cache and dalvik cache (this is the first time I tried and it seems a important step for the fix to work)
Reboot and that's it
Please, try it and give feedback!
UPDATE3 - NEW FIX - Using LG server
After many hours of testing... He is my conclusion. The GPS alone can't get a useful signal...
To make this new fix work...
turn off the AGPS*
clear the AGPS data
delete the files (not folder) in /data/gps
reboot to recovery and flash (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=42195149&postcount=56)
reboot
open an app like GPS Status and download the AGPS data only from the app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eclipsim.gpsstatus2)
* To turn on/off the AGPS go to localization services and turn on the option that is something like "use wifi and/or mobile data to determine your location"
Don't use AGPS from localization services... You just have to download the AGPS from time to time.
UPDATE4: NEW GPS FIX TWEAKED BY DCOP7
I've made a new fix and I want a few testers. Who can help me?
To make this new fix work...
turn off the AGPS*
delete the files (not folder) in /data/gps
reboot to recovery and flash GPS_fix_tweaked_by_dcop7.zip
Turn on mobile data of Wifi and open GPS Status or something. This will download a file explained below
Need to turn on mobile data or wifi when getting a GPS signal every few days to refresh the file downloaded in point 4.
* To turn on/off the AGPS go to localization services and turn on the option that is something like "use wifi and/or mobile data to determine your location"
What is the difference between this fix and other fixes?
This fix is configured to download the information: Long Term Orbits. This information is like and enhanced AGPS data. The Mackey fix sometimes use this information, that is why some people get a lock very fast, even if they clear AGPS (this information isn't cleared when GPS Status clean the AGPS data). To clear every bit of AGPS data, delete the files present in /data/gps (point 2).
What took me a long time to understand is when this information is downloaded, what interval, etc... It was difficult to understand why the Mackey fix download this information without any patter. That is why, with Mackey fix, after a few days, the GPS performance dropped.
I think I figure it out. Please, test this fix and give some feedback.

Cm10.1 and no change after flash. Maybe the issue is CM itself
I'll try another place with IZS tomorrow.
Thank you for your work, I am curious to read other experiences on JB.
It was my reason for switching from JB to IZS. GPS never worked for me on JB, but it's working as a blast on IZS. I don't know how huexxx did it, but I always have a fix within 5 seconds outside, and within 20 seconds inside.

I'll do some tests. But apparently, in the past few hours, I can't get any signal too... But about 4, 5 hours ago it worked great.
Back to IZS 5 minute ago. But GPS in my IZS working (don't remember because I used CM from last month): 7 satellite after 1minute, and after flash the fix, it's .... still working, but a bit slower. LOL

I tried every one of them and nothing worked. I think it is CM related. Now I'm back to IZS. I noticed that there is no gps.conf there. Does a new gps.conf make any difference then?

Hidden menu fix : use nokia servers & avtivate SLP Auto Provision
all credits to conceptics @ modaco !!
To get it to work as flawless I have made the following adjustments that seem to work well:
1. Go into the LG hidden menu
2. Go into GPS Test
3. Go into System Settings
4. MOLR Protocol (is set to User-Plane)
5. SULP Setting -> SLP Server Setting, I created a new one for the nokia servers (slp address: supl.nokia.com, port: 7275, no cert and no TLS setting)
6. SLP Auto Provision is activated
I'm in Switzerland and with this settings (supl.nokia.com), the GPS fix is relatively quick and works consistently within about 10 seconds of starting Google-Maps.
Still not sure if this is indeed FR15 related or if the problem is purely SSL Certificate related. If it is SSL Certificate related wouldn't the problem be much more widespread and wouldn't google already have updated the certificate by now?
Anyway, hope the above works at least as a temporary workaround.

this fix really works like a charm, you nearly get an instant fix !
access hidden menu :
In launcher pro you just press and hold on one of the home screens until a menu shows up.
Select "Shortcuts" then choose "Activities" scroll down until you find com.lge.hiddenmenu.
tap on it then tap on HiddenMenu. now you have a shortcut on the home screen.
if you have cooked ROM without hidden menu, you can use my zip to install in recovery first :

it just copies "gps.conf" to system/etc
if you like to remove it : navigate to system/etc with root explorer, mount rw, and delete "gps.conf"

does it work for the stock rom???
Nice fix, just pushed the file with root explorer on system/etc, now faster fix work on Stock Rom (V10c).

These are the latest files piulled from the Vibrant 4G 2.3.4 build. Whether they are different than the ones posted by birgertime or brick'd (don't remember who really) some time back I don't know. I do know that the ones previously posted were from the original 2.3.3 leak for the 4G and these as stated are from the 2.3.4 leak.
I have tested these (very limited thus far) and they do work as expected. Same deal with turning GPS off you will need to reboot. These may or may not improve GPS you tell me.
You may flash this as anything else. It does wipe dalvic so your first boot will take slightly longer.
Im gonna give them a go and see what happens never was able to get a lock with the others. I will report back after some testing.

CWM yes. All of the Samsung GB roms are still using CWM2.5 and the script is set for that. If it fails to flash you'll either have to repackage it for CWM 4 or push the files manually or through adb.

The recovery is to new for this flashable. Unzip tje contents of the zip and use adb or root explorer to move the files manually. Then boot recovery and fix permissions.
After some testing. I think this works better then the previous fix for me. As soon as I open up GPS test or gpsaids I get 13 in view. Step outside hit 9 locks in about 2-3 minutes. 2.3.3 files I could never get a lock at all.
Thanks for posting these.

I would say since these files where pulled from a twiz build that they would need to be altered or reworked to work with a CM7 build..
And also there is no reason to ask for something more than once ( CWM 4 support) it doesn't get you anywhere. If this ends up being better for CM7 it will be added..
Flashed on SH 5.1 and honestly I had great GPS with that rom anyways but it seems to be working fine, used Navigation this morning with success.

It's strange, I never had such problem. For me GPS "only" is turning off data traffic when appear. Try to do "clean" installation of GingerDX (flashtool+root+xRecovery) and full wipe after. Did you had such problems on stock rom?

Use the fasterfix app again, set location. Or maybe you can try using gps libs from FreeXperia team.
Edit;
Backup first and copy all of this into your /etc/gps.conf file. Erase every line in there other than the one about NTP_SERVER before copying this into there.

Try reinstalling just gapps.
I was really looking forward to this when I saw this post because I'm having some issues with PACMAN Rom.. tried AOKP but also issues..
So when I saw this I jumped all over it.
No problems installing, but I can't get connected to the network properly.
Internet (APN) is not working at all, can configure but doesn't connect. And other things are acting weird making me think something is badly configured on my end.. commands like *105# to check how much money I have available for calls doesn't work, it makes a phonecall instead.
Any ideas?
I'm a total newbie on these things sorry, only got my Razr M a couple of weeks ago and it's the first phone that I unlock the bootloader to try other roms. My guess is that it's not connecting properly to the network.
I'm in Bolivia at the moment, what network type should I choose? GSM ? There's to LTE here, but there's HSPDA (3.5g, right? they call it 4g here though)
When I select GSM and I look for networks it lists them, but can't connect. When I select GSM/WCDMA and reboot the phone, it apears as connected to the network. Can make calls, can't sms and can't connect to internet, also the USSD codes to check how much $$$ is left on my account don't work.
Any ideas?

I'm a total newbie on these things sorry, only got my Razr M a couple of weeks ago and it's the first phone that I unlock the bootloader to try other roms. My guess is that it's not connecting properly to the network.
I'm in Bolivia at the moment, what network type should I choose? GSM ? There's to LTE here, but there's HSPDA (3.5g, right? they call it 4g here though)
When I select GSM and I look for networks it lists them, but can't connect. When I select GSM/WCDMA and reboot the phone, it apears as connected to the network. Can make calls, can't sms and can't connect to internet, also the USSD codes to check how much $$$ is left on my account don't work.
Any ideas?
sorry for the newbness overload

If you use GSM network - you must flash also GSM-fix for it - then you can edit APN.
After flash GSM-fix leave network choosing for ROM - it will choose correct network type
I attach GSM-fix for CM10.1 - it works correct with Liquid
P.S. But try clean install - all wipes, then flash ROM / GAPPS / GSM-fix
Woop
Thank You so Much! Gonna try it right away!
Again sorry for the newbness... this is all new to me. I've been a lurker reading and never posting anything and always managed to work out my little doubts, but all this with roms is totally new grounds for me.
I couldn't acess APN settings on AOKP Rom neither, is it for the same reason?
Also.. I've had a couple of issues with PACMAN Rom, crashing and rebooting when playing music using a bluetooth speaker, is that a general issue with all roms not based on motorola kernel?

1. AOKP & PACMAN have GSM-fix too (but you can use attached - it works)
2. BT is fixed now (I did not try, but I was read, that it`s fixed)
3. All this ROMs have own kernel - AOSP kernel. You can also use custom kernels - from Arrghh or Bytecode
P.S. Liquid have one issue - FC of system.ui . But it`s not for all - some people have no this..

Thanks m8!
Installed, applied fix and it's working great! and I love it! From all the roms I tried this one has the best feel.. from the smoothness to the transitions, it looks pro. Better than any other Android ui I've seen.
Have just been playing around with settings but haven't found a single problem or error. Still haven't tested out BT, fingers crossed that it's fixed! =D
Another newb question, I've seen "FC" a couple of times... what is it? Force Close, right? I read a couple of people complaning that there was an error with new SMS's that would trigger a ui FC. I've tested it- no problems!

You are right - FC = force close

I can't seem to be able to turn NFC off. Is it a known bug, is there a fix?

I'll be able to reply to that once I start giving the phone it's normal use. Right now it's just getting abused and the battery flies

I'm gonna try this. Hope it works better. I'm not having any luck flashing the NEXT kernel and also have no phone audio using the "other" stock-based 4.2.2 (same problem as @ketut's Sammy-based 4.1.2)....
Ahhhh big job Luigi!! :beer:
Screenshots ?
I´ll hit "Thanks" tomorrow (Not able today: "Sorry, you are limited to 8 thanks per day")

Alright. I have a working phone remover. The deny signal is gone. The phone stuff is gone. Only problem is the device reboot when trying to bring up the power menu. So I guess we can't remove mobile data from the settings. Unless I or someone from here can figure something out. Anyways, now I''ll try to add flare effect and fix the mic and stuff.

Please try add ro.carrier=wifi-only to build.prop, NEXT kernel will stop 2 phone related daemon on boot.
Alright, I made my own version of the blackhawk 4 update annnnnnd... mic still doesn't work. @ketut.kumajaya. I think 4.2.2 uses some different files for mic.
Any error with sync app & calendar?
For me everything went well. Realy smooth and fast. But first time i tried to delete some of the things i don't use from system/apps(nothing that i don't usually delete) TW FCs....will try again with only freezing. Ty for your good work
Does swap sd work? thanks
Not working on 3100
on Booting the message "android.phone" has stopped and "android.gapps" has stopped pops every second. Cant even get through the setup process.
Procedure which i followed was from cm 10.1.2
Wipe data-> wipe cache->wipe dalvik->install rom->wipe cache->wipe dalvik and reboot.
going back to cm now.
Thanks.
I have the P3113 and simply go into systemui.apk and remove all signal icons. I also remove all the battery icons simply because I prefer the bat %. I know this does not remove the phone stuff itself but it does get rid of the icons in the Noti bar without any errors.
Not the best way but it works.
fast and smooth but i have an problem after flashing there is no gallery app

try formatting /system and /data before you flash the ROM (just be sure you have a nandroid backup, ofc ^_^)
