Hello to all.
A few weeks ago, I installed trinity custom ROM on my Incredible S.
I have S-OFF. I felt the ROM to be a bit slow and decided to install a new one.
Yesterday, I installed Android Revolution HD 2.1.2. Initially, the network connection was not at all there. So I installed recommended radio. And the network came back and everything was working fine.
Then, I tried to apply a mod for CRT animation. After that patch, I've lost my network again.
I tried to flash the device so many times that I forgot the count.
I tried 3 radios from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1129014&highlight=radio and none works.
I installed a lot other ROMs and they all faced the same problem of network.
Currently, I tried ICS for INCS beta 1 and that too shows no network error.
The SIM is working fine another phone of mine.
I'm good at programming. So, can grasp technical details.
Please help.
Thank you.
OKAY.
I just realized that I was working with Back cover open. Upon closing the back cover, the problem got solved.
I spent a whole night of mine without sleeping to solve this and after 9-10 hours I came to know THIS. THIS? Sigh.
Lesson learned XD
Recently my SXL's GPS stopped working. Up until about a week ago everything was perfectly fine then one morning it just stopped working. I've tried changing through 5 roms (even stock rom), wiping everything i could fine, changing radios, changing the gps.conf file but nothing seems to make it work. Using GPS Status it now tells me that it can't find any satellites outdoors or indoors so im wondering if its a hardware error. Any help would be much appreciated
bump?
hi,same problem with my stock rom,i suppose a hardware problem,some budy know where the gps module is located,i think is near the flash light but not sure
I make Geocaching and before with HTC one X the GPS work very good with tolerate error Max 4meters, now with HTC one have 10-14meters,anyone have problems too?

I play Ingress and i too have issues with GPS and my HTC ONE.
Maybe a issue in the kernel... :/ hope when i root the phone this can be solve..
GPS 'lag'
I've been using HTC One for about a week and noticed when using navigation (e.g. Sygic) in my car the current location is not accurate but it sometimes points even 200m away. The GSP seems to be very laggy, especially when moving (drivig), but if I stand still it gets better - then the error is only 2-3m.
This is unrooted, unmodified stock phone. I've tried with the GPS Status to fix the location, but no success. Any hints what else I can do? Thanks.

I can confirm the above. GPS is not reacting as fast as my Sensation and is sometimes way off qua location. This is on a rooted, S-off phone with ARHD 11.0.
Hi guys,
Really need some help or advice here with my HTC ONE GPS. For the use of external SD card, the One I have is a J one, the Japanese version of it.
It came with Android 4.1.2 I think, and I am pretty sure the GPS worked fine then. I had my camera replaced by the seller due to focus issues. The seller flashed my phone with a new ROM too trying to fix my camera.
That's when the issue started. My GPS app would lock the satellites fine and fast, but can only hold up for 10 seconds before losing every satellite. Then picks up the signal again, and losing it again in 10 seconds. And the problem stays on. I have tried a few different GPS apps, no luck there. GPS status shows the same thing, it loses everything in 10 seconds and then start over again.
I don't think it’s a hardware issue as it does lock and works for about 10 seconds.
Any thoughts?
Cheers,
anyone
Anyone please help with the issue.

I also lost GPS functionality, but that was when I tried a 4.3 kernel/ROM by dirty unicorn. I even tried running the official RUU to get back to as stock as possible on the latest ROM, but that hasn't helped. Can see GPS sats but can't lock. I'm going to S-OFF and flash the original ROM and see if that helps. I'll let you know my findings. Have you found anything?
no clue if this is still a thing; but on the older htc devices there was a command you could run from the dialer in a sense rom to reset gps status.

Hello, I've tried everything to make it work, I installed the GPS apps and everything, even flashed two different roms and still not working.. Is it a kitkat problem?

I reverted to stock and it didn't work as well, tell me if it helps you please
I tried restarting my phone and that got the GPS to turn on. But it wouldnt turn off itself whenever you exit an app like Maps or a GPS status app. The icon will continue to flash on the tool bar for a while and eventually turn of by itself. If you try to activate the GPS again you need to restart your phone.
Im not sure if this is a 4.4.2 problem or a unlocked/rooted problem. Ill try to revert my phone back to stock tonight

my gps doesnt have that problem..download an app called gps status, it shows how many satellites are in the field, then click on agps reset, then download then reboot..some people report this method fixes their gps, but doesnt fix mine ..keep me informed
I'm having the same issue lately after sending my phone to service to fix camera... My gps doesn't want to fix satellites. I tried reverting to stock (keeping s-off and unlocked bootloader) installed a guru reset rom and applied otas but no way till now. Last chance will be flashing a ruu, didn't have time yet but I'll do it in a couple days. I will keep you guys informed, if anyone succeeds in fixing it, please post how you did it!
Gps status sometimes sees satellites but signal is too low and never grows. I even tried tweaking gps.conf file a lot but no way...

Update: i tried with a RUU zip with android 4.1.2 and applied otas till 4.3 (that was the last one i received) on one of this upgrades camera was unable to launch but on the next one it came back. And no way to get gps working with any one of these upgrades. Gps status sees a number of satellites (weird thing, after every new flash glonass satellites appear with some sort of signal -- snr <= 1.18 --, until i reset gps data and download new agps files, then they never come back until i flash some other version/rom) but never gets an acceptable signal enough to lock..
Really don't know what else to try, i think i will send back to service..

Any update on this?
Im having issues with my GPS as well. I use the ViperOne ROM (latest) with the ElementalX firmware. When I try to use Google Maps the following will happen:
1) GPS will find my location ok and calculate a route ok.
2) I start driving and the blue arrow in google maps does not move OR it thinks im on a different road than I actually am. When it thinks im on a different road the arrow may or may not move...more often than not it just stays still.
3) I have driven for over 10min hoping it will eventually start to work but it doesn't.
4) The only way I have got it to work is to pull over, stop nav, close maps and try again. Generally on the 2nd or 3rd try it will start to work correctly.
My GPS was working fine before I rooted and installed a custom ROM. I will try wiping and flashing ViperOne tonight and use the stock firmware instead of ElementalX. Will report back to see if this works.

Nop no good still. If anyone has a fix for this it would be appreciated!!!
Same issues here after sending in for repair. GPS sees about 18-20 satellites per the gps status apps, but only fixes on 3-4 with weak signals. Tried a few gps.conf tweaks which help but seems that they're just using more of the AGPS data and not actually the GPS chip.
EDIT: Have tried a few fresh wipes and different ROMs, GPE edition, etc. - all the same. This never happened in the past :/

I have tried updating the firmware to the latest version and different ROMS but that did not help. However I discovered that in google maps if I select the walk mode my navigation will work! Unfortunately thats no help as I need the car mode to work.
I installed GPS Status and it locks on to plenty of satellites so im not sure why Google Maps (or any nav apps) will not work.
I came to the same conclusion as you. It seems like the phone is using AGPS and not the GPS data.

I did a little research the other day ...I can't find the link but I remember most of it..
Apparently one of the Google+ and/or playstore silent background updates mess up gps on google maps for HTC One.
Using the 'GPS essentials' and 'Gps status' apps you can actually lock on to all the gps satellites fine.
Also using navigation,like you did...also locks on fine.
Its the standard google maps over view and a few other apps that use it (like my bus map app) that are affected.
One work around is apparently (didn't work for me though) going into the google settings app and tinkering with Google+ settings. turning it off or clearing it or something.
This is a software issue. I'm on untampered pure stock.
So I have resolved the GPS issue on my device. I tried a whole bunch of things so im not totally sure what fixed it. I:
Removed HTC Backup using root uninstaller
Using Faster GPS set my location and added the TRUE flag to AGPS_Enable
Using GPSFix I waited until it locked onto a satellite.
Rebooted my phone then tested with GPS Test. My phone locked onto about 8 satellites.
Tried Google maps navigation and it worked.
So far its been 3 days, 2 reboots and counting. Hopefully something similar works for you.
If you're rooted editing the GPS.conf file fixes it perfectly. The default setting are just totally crap

And GPS has stopped working again. What a pain.
Go here. This is how I fixed my HTC one. It works on all android phones. The default GPS.conf file is rubbish
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=953630
I tried the gps.conf file in that link. It seemed to be slightly better at first, locking onto 3 satellites with yellow SNR in GPS Test. But then I tried resetting and downloading the AGPS data with GPS Status and after it doesn't even detect satellites anymore.
Question to the posters in the thread. Have any of you dropped your phone before this started happening? I've gone through 2 M7s and the GPS stopped working properly after taking a nasty spill and have been unsuccessful in remedying the problem.

I have dropped my phone several times however it is in a protective case. My issue started out of the blue: one day it was working just fine, the next it was highly erratic...and has been since.
