GPS Fix - clear modemst1 - Moto X Q&A

so i found this: http://ejvyas.blogspot.com/2015/02/cm12aosp-based-rom-gps-fix.html
but for the life of me, I can't seem to enter fastboot modem - my CPU is not recognizing my phone when typing fastboot devices. there has to be another way to clear the modemst1 and modemst2 files via root explorer, right?

You sure you're opening the command prompt in the directory of your fastboot files.
If not try it.
You have to change the directory of command prompt using cd command

I'm doing the shift right-click in that directory. for example, if my fastboot files are in c:\temp, I'm opening command prompt in that folder. not sure if it is USB version or not though...

Finally got it to work. I changed lock screen to swipe, used impactor to enter fastboot mode, then enter the command lines via the command prompt. Rebooted, and GPS tracks my movements.
Score!

Thanks for the info. I tried It out but when I reboot and try to use GPS by opening maps the phone freezes and reboots.
Never mind found a solution.

Cant get into fastboot

Well, Im trying to unroot, however I am having a problem getting into fastboot to remove a second splash screen. When on the "skate boarding" screen, the command prompt on my PC pops up for a second then closes. I'm pretty sure there is something I'm doing wrong, but I just can't figure out what.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks

So your saying that when you open up command prompt it only stays up for a second and closes.
When I manually open command prompt, it stays open. However, when the PC tries to load fastboot.exe, it opens and closes quickly.
fastboot.exe is a command line utility, running it by itself (without arguments) will produce the behavior you are seeing.
To use it you drop to a command prompt and enter a command such as:
fastboot devices
to see if your phone is being recognized in fastboot mode...
or
fastboot flash system system.img
to flash the system with a backup image.
You get the picture?

I think you hit sth!
when tablet is on, adb devices give me return (serial number+device). But, when i adb reboot-bootloader, adb devices give me nth, instead fastboot devices give me return.
When you type in adb devices it returns your device but you'll notice that it says offline next to it.
Therefore you can't send any adb commands to it.
It's a new security measure apparently, the solutions can be found in the forums.

I tried fastboot again. Ok, running smoothly at first, but in the end, i got this error:
writing 'bootloader'...
FAILED <status read failed <too many links>>
So i closed the cmd (bcoz when i tried fastboot devices, it shows ????? devices. Then when i forced closed my device and reboot into bootloader, it showed 4.18 as the bootloader version but under SIGNING, it is not defined yet.
Is this correct?

Do you have fastboot.exe on your computer? It looks like CMD isn't finding fastboot.exe 1-because you don't have it 2- because you have not started your cmd prompt from your fastboot.exe folder
can you post a screenshot of your cmd prompt when you get this error?

Like mb_guy said, you MUST place the bin file in the same folder where adb and fastboot are. Every time you want to flash a file to your phone it must be in that folder, otherwise fastboot won't find it and it will output you that error (can't open file). That rule apply to recovery, unlock code, rom, kernel, ruu, firmware etc etc.

''error: cannot open'' is caused because fastboot don't find the file. Is the recovery file you are trying to flash is named exactly <openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-m7.img> ?
Btw I'll recommend you to flash twrp 2.6.3.3 not 2.6.3.0 as you could have issur flashing newer 4.4 rom
Code:
fastboot flash recovery <name_of_file.img>
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader

Yes, named exactly the same.
It's driving me mad, if the bootloader is now unlocked is there an easier way to flash twrp and then root.
Whats the best way to check adb is actually communicating with the phone

[Q] Can't get into Fastboot

Ok, now we know that fastboot and adb can be troublesome on WIndows, but despite lots of reading, I;m a bit stumped as to what if anything is wrong with my WIN 7 setup.
ADB works fine, I can get into adb from a cmd window, enter commands and get the expected result.
"adb devices" returns the 16 digit serial number, a few spaces and "device"
"adb reboot" reboots as normal
I cannot get into fastboot from adb though. (I can use a factory cable to enter fastboot, no problem, and using the Quick Boot app, I can get into Fastboot no probs.
Once there,
"fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product" returns -> product: Tate-PVT-08
"fastboot -i 0x1949 devices" returns -> 13EE000200000001 fastboot
"fastboot -i 0x1949 reboot" gets me out into normal mode.
All above leads me (correctly or not) to think that the drivers, system etc are ok and I'm doing something wrong.
eg
" adb reboot-bootloader" (as written in adb help) simply reboots the device as usual
as does
"adb reboot bootloader"
"adb reboot boot loader"
I've seen the various syntax here and elsewhere
It seems as if the command is read as far as "reboot" and everything after that is ignored. So, what am I doing wrong?
You're doing nothing wrong. I believe that command does not work in the later os versions.

Oh bum. You know, I thought maybe the drivers were wrong, or my syntax wrong, but I never thought the OS would be wrong!! Lol
Does anyone know when this change was introduced and which was the last OS release that could be booted into fastboot via adb?
If you're rooted you could try the methods in the FAQ post. Otherwise, buy/build a fastboot cable. It makes everything much easier.
Q17: How can I access fastboot mode on 2nd generation Kindle Fires?
There are 3 methods currently used for accessing fastboot mode on the 2nd generation Kindle Fires. Depending on the model, one or more of these methods may not work.
For all devices, entering “reboot bootloader” in the shell as the root user should reboot the device into fastboot mode.
On HD models, entering a fastboot command that waits for a handshake from the device (i.e. <waiting for device>”) such as “fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product” and rebooting the device will usually enable fastboot mode when the device reboots.
On the KFHD7 and KF2, a factory cable can be used to access fastboot mode by plugging it into the device after it has been powered down.
Thanks Red. The shell command works, but issuing a command that waits for a handshake then rebooting doesn't. I also tried the same command whilst the device was powered down, but in both cases it just booted normally.
Of course my factory cable also works, and I am rooted

You don't need sudo for fastboot. But you do need to know where the fastboot binary is.
Or he can use an adb and fastboot installer script which should put it in a known PATH
