I've tried everything to fix this. I get 0/0 satellites.
I bought a used LG G2 off swappa. It's in good condition so I don't think it would be defective.
I've tried the antenna cardboard mod, fast gps, different ROMs with different bootstacks.
I plan on flashing back to stock with the LG tool. Just gotta wait for it to finish downloading. Any ideas?
OK it's definitely a ROM issue.
I forgot to mention in the above post I'm on VS980. And all the ROMs I used were LP.
I got the GPS to work so far. I didn't use the LG tool. I cleaned wiped my phone (except for my data, so system/cache/ect). Then I flashed bootstack A26 and xdabbeb_vs980_2.3.0 ROM which is a KK ROM. And GPS worked. That ROM is a stock ROM debloated and modded.
Then I dirty flashed XenonHD (update-XenonHD-02-22-15-signed-vs980) because it was the only LP ROM I could find on A26 bootstack. And then I flashed gapps for LP.
GPS is now working on LP. I literally spent all day on this. I hope this ROM is stable and dirty flashing didn't screw anything up.
Clean flashing a stock based rom is the general fix for GPS and screen rotation issues, which is what xdabbeb's vs980 2.3.0 is. Now that you've got that you can also try out crDroid and JackpotClavin's cm12, which are also both 26a based.
Good job getting it fixed and good luck playing!

I tried a few roms out an seem to all have removed prl update, poor to little signal, broken gps locking, an a few other issues. My concern today I'm bringing up is wondering if anyone could supply me a clean stock rom. I need to wipe and install it. I feel going back to stock is my best option at this time so atleast my functions could work. Just at the moment kind of lost. sorry for the noob help.
What rom are you using that it's broken on? Working fine on tranquil but its far from a stock rom

Stock rom is more stable & fast, but I don't like the UI.
Using CM, works fine.

SHORT VERSION: is there any stable rom for the i9305 that can also run banking apps that look at if your rooted? Or just a stable rom for i9305!? Or even a stock rom that has no bloat-ware (for i9305 of course and in uk)?
LONG:
So I started out a journey looking for a good stable rom and of course cyanogen caught my eye but I unfortunately swapped to a 4g service and swapped my phone right before embarking on this journey to a i9305 - crap!
I thought wow great 4g and 2gig ram it'll be perfect with cyanogen 11 so I waited and no M build for i9305 all year long argh! So I gave up and tried a nightly cyanogen 11 and it was buggy as hell. So gave up on that after a few weeks and trying different updates moved to carbon - again only nightly available even more bugs maybe I was just unlucky in timing but on to cyanogen 10.1 I was going backwards now not the most fun but it still has a few bugs but is way more stable and I loved the speed and camera was great but still it feels a bit old and I still prefer stock . So I am thinking now I either give up n get stock or go on to yet another one but im not confident now ...thanks!
i also like stock ROM...until now didn't found one which will have wi-fi working with stock kernel...so i will give it a try to rXTREME.JB.4.3-V5.1.1 with a custom kernel and see how it works...

Hmm yes too many bugs in all the custom roms on this device wish I could try a cyanogen M build ...
if you want to install rXTREME you MUST make a full wipe....in instruction it says it is recommended....but in reality is a MUST...all kind of bugs...and freezes...just opened screen and tried to unlock it...light effect...instant freeze...had to reboot...
i also wanted a stable CM11....not with huge battery drain...and other force closes....
hi men ,
i used the slimKat rom on my gti9305 and it's the perfection for that
Try Pacman RC1 everything is working very very less Force closes though but I have flashed paranoid ROM gapps and Google play app is not connecting :/
Very less it works

I just wanted to say thank you,

Kept my SGS2 always up2date due to this awesome community work.
After i got my S4A i always had problems with costum roms with network / processing / non-booting / bootlooping or whatever....
This ROM is just perfect. Everything runs smooth so far. No unexpected errors. Just like i love it.
Download, Wipe, Install, WORKS!
Thanks for your work!

Not sure what to advice on problems report for nightly not yet built. (Nov. 14th) 14.11 is next week
Generally speaking don't jump into advice to Odin flash latest modem.bin and specific NOT NON-HLOS.bin to fix anything. It can create more issues.
When switch between different AOSP /CM based roms (your forum history tell you have been in PAC world lately) a thorough clean-up is best advice. CWM format data, dalvik, cache and /system before CWM flash latest cm-11-20141103 and latest gapps. Or I can confirm CM11 - 1029 with Location mode =device only lock fast on Glonass and US sat.
I have never flashed any modem or NON-HLOS.bin separately to fix whatever.
Sorry, actually i am on cm-11-20141104... So i will try clean my System an re-flash it. Ty

Wifi issues
Hi guys,
i'v got a problem regarding wifi activation/connection. I flashed the latest RC of the pac man ROM, which is btw awesome, and after a couple of days i'm not able to activate my wifi again. It happend over night and after I tried to reactivate it, it just shows me the status that "wifi will be activated" but nothing happens. Is this a well-known issue? Are there any fixes for this?
Thanx in advance for reply!!!

Nope, the i537 has a locked bootloader, so you cannot use any ROM that requires a custom kernel. Start reading about SafeStrap, it's your only choice.
What about the i537?
If this rom doesnt work with it then what does? I really want to run Pac Roms on this phone, because I love how well it runs on my nexus tablet. I just cant find roms for this thing anywhere!

You need to search for SafeStrap compatible ROMs. You'll probably find them in the AT&T S4 forum.
A lot of people have good things to say about Hyperdrive.

Nope, you can use this ROM, you'll just need to put in the T-Mo APN settings in order to connect to the T-Mo network.
help me!
Friends, this powerful this ROM, I love, but I have a problem with the camera. sometimes it tells me that my camera could not connect, anyone have any advice to give solution to my problem. I also want to know if it is possible to flash the camera's native s4 active beforehand grace.
Same problem on camera, i think it's related to porting, some libs not perfect.
Usually i made a fast reboot (not fully) and then works .
For flashing native camera, i think that will not work cause many tw files are missing.

Lollipop link not working. File not found???
5.1 working quite smoothly after 3 days. No camera bugs, speakers ok too. The only issue I´ve found so far is battery drain compared to CM12 which I used until last week.

Hi everyone, i've tested various custom roms for my xt1052 (from cm 11 to cm12), and with every rom the gps isn't working....so i'm thinking that it's impossible that every rom has that bug..... is there someone that have solved to this problem? i read something about gps locking from stock, but i don't understand... can you explain it to me? Now i'm using the last aicp 5.0.2... Thanks
Reflash stock from clean wipe. Get a GPS lock. Install a custom ROM.... Profit?!?
My gps works fine on Eclipse rom 4.4.4
Sent from my XT1060 using XDA Free mobile app
I've been using Here Maps on Epsilon project Rom for work with no problems. Last I read, several Lollipop Roms have bugs related to GPS?
Epsilon and Eclipse are stock roms, Custom roms are like Liquid Smooth, PAC, CM, PA, and others.
And I'm also with those GPS problems.

Well, i can't pass directly from stock to lollipop...i must flash a 4.4.4 rom first (if not i have bootloop)...i had locked gps in stock, then went to recovery, wipe, install 4.4.4 rom and when boot no gps signal....i'm doing something wrong?!
If your bootloader is unlocked, you can jump from 4.2.2 all the way to 4.4.4 or 5.0 if you like. However, going going backwards is a different story and should not be done.
Which version of Android are you currently running?

I'm using the latest aicp nightly 5.0.2.....but the gps on every cusyom rom doesn't work, only with stock.
I try ROMs and ROMs and ROMs and all are unusable, because the
phone freezes with nameless-5.1.1-20151107-p880-nightly or
reboots when starting apps with euphoria-os-1.1-p880-unofficial-20160208-user or
is extremely slow and is stottering with aosplp-20151122-p880
a..s.o
The apps which lead to a reboot with euphoria work fine with aosp and nameless. Euphoria is fast, faster than nameless, which would be fast enough for me. There are no problems which exist with every ROM.
Does anyone have a recommendation for a ROM for the P880 which works without big problems. At the moment I think about to go back to 4.4 and try beanstalk-4.4.4010-20140904-p880cm
Of course I would be happy to find a ROM with fixed stagefright-bugs, but it looks like to be impossible

Check out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66049970&postcount=1195
This is the latest 5.1.1 ROM with security patch level at 2016-04-01. It has all known stagefright bugs fixed so far.
If you wish to report issues on the ROM I shared, then use the thread over there, not here.
MoltenMotherBoard is the last custom ROM that I miss to test. I'm going to try it in the next days.
According to my test, my answer to the thread question is: NO, there's no custom rom working fine for my daily use.
Actually fastest rom was liquid smooth 4.4.4. Our phone hardware outdated. Like the others said this phone is crap
I'm running Euphoria version 1.0-p880-20150130 (Android 5.0.2), it's the best Lollipop based custom ROM for our device in my opinion. Unlike AOSP it has more settings (& features), and it's more stable than later versions of Euphoria. If you want to stick to KitKat, check out the latest CM nightlies.
To be honest, after 2 years of testing custom ROM... today i finally found the best one to keep... STOCK!!!
I've re-discovered the pleasure of see who is calling me at once, not after 20 seconds. I can finally take photos, hear who is calling, open apps without having to wait like 20-30 seconds.
I appreciate the effort of every developer... but at the end, the result is that out of 20-30 custom ROMs for our phone... no one can be used for daily use and being happy with it

having JellyBean running on your device in 2016 is a very very very bad idea.
Here's the issues I found with LG stock JB-4.1.2 ROM v20 euro-open. If you can live with them, then good for you.
- Bluetooth button action broken. Cannot invoke Google Search or Voice Dialer from bluetooth headsets. Fixed in custom ROM such as CM/AOSP KK and LP.
- No update for Google Maps. Version 7 is the final version for v20c. Fixed in CM/AOSP KK/LP.
- No notification from Lock Screen. Fixed in CM/AOSP LP.
- No smart lock to avoid the hassle of entering PINs for known location and known BT device. Fixed in CM/AOSP LP.
- No screen cast. Fixed in AOSP LP.
- No bluetooth tethering. Fixed in AOSP LP.
Actually I'm on stock now (euro 20c), and my version of Maps is 9.25.1.
But yes, you're right...I'm ok because for instance I don't use bluetooth at all.
I still miss to test "AOSP Lollipop 5.1.1 | MoltenMotherBoard"...but my question is: is smooth as the stock? Are these working ? camera, flash, barcode, dialer reader, calls in general..
thanks in advance

When I was still on LG stock JB, Maps somehow got updated. But then the device slowed to crawl and I factory reset it and I didn't get Google Play store to update it again. Glad you have it and it works for you.
Barcode and FM radio are not working. If these 2 are important to you, then you should stick with LG stock.
For UI smoothness, I think Lollipop itself has made tons of improvement that it is at least the same or better than JB. Don't take my words for it, you should try it out yourself and pass on the judgement.
