GPS problem

Hi!
I own Samsung S3 mini phone since 2 weeks. I used to use GPS alot for outdoor sports, such as biking or hiking with my old Samsung Galaxy Ace phone. I'm running a problem with the GPS as the signal lost every minute, so I can't record my own ride or anything.
I've been checking this site but i didn't see anything regarding to this issue. I know that a lot of people is getting this problem with S3 terminal, and they have developed some fixes that can solve the problem, but not for S3 mini. Do anyone know something about it? I read somewhere that this problem could be caused by the RADIO or MODEM file, but i can't see any other file to try it out.
I'm runing a rooted deodexed ROM (AMB3)
Hope someone can help with this issue. I tried with GPS STATUS but is not fixing the problem.
Cheers

sorry guys... I just flashed 4.1.1 firmware and now works cool. Isn't anyone with this troubles in 4.1.2?

[Q] 4.2.2 tethering crashes windows 7

Hi,
Installed 4.2.2 yesterday and had to roll back to 4.1.2 (307) as Windows 7 crashed every time I tethered and tried connecting to the internet.
Anyone else had this problem, and has anyone got a solution to this as would prefer to install 4.2.2 again if a fix is available.
Searched this forum for a similar problem but not seen it mentioned anywhere.
Cheers guys

I'm having the same trouble and I can't seem to find much information about this. It's happening on Windows 7 64bit.

Hi etakarine, I'm on 64 bit also. Found this whilst looking into the problem, appears to be an Intel driver problem, though not tried it yet:

no issues here, just tethered and did a speed test without any issues at all
windows 7 64bit

Same problem for me at work on a Win 7 Enterprise
No problem at home with a Win 7 Ultimate
It's definitively a driver/software part, also at work i have Kaspersky that know for causin problem with that.

Thanks for your responses guys!!
I don't use Kaspersky, though use Symantec Corporate antivirus.
I'm guessing it's the intel driver problem, which I'll install and update again over the weekend when I've more time, to see if that's the problem!!

Just a quick update folks for anyone else with this problem. Installed the Intel wifi drivers from the link above earlier, updated back to 4.2.2 and fingers crossed, no crashes so far in the last 30 mins. Early days, but will test further over the weekend and report.
Looking good though as Win 7 crashed as soon as IE and Firefox were opened previously!!

Very slow WiFi speed on Android

Got my Teclast X98 air 3G two days ago with Win 10 + Android 5.0.
I left Win 10 untouched, but flashed Mirek's v5.0 (thank you very much for the ROM!!) to get rid of all the chinese bloatware.
Everything works very smooth except that I am experiencing really slow WiFi speeds on Android compared to e.g. my Xperia ZL.
Win 10 WiFi speeds are great!
I have bios 2.05 installed.
Could anyone help me with that issue?
Found the WiFi Tweak, but it only seems to be for Win.

Teclast X98 Air iii Bluetooth problem

Hi all,
I just bought a Teclast x98 air iii running android 5.0. Every time I tried turning Bluetooth on, it would just turn back off. Does anyone have similar problem with similar Chinese tablets? Anyone able to fix it? I cleared the cache and also started in safe mode but they didn't work. Thank you!

gps fix problems

Dear All,
I have been a LP 5.1.1 user since the beginning and I didn't change anything but all of a sudden I can't use Google Maps as I don't get a fix. I used GPS test and also no fix.
I had this problem before and did some fiddling and got it working again. But I forgot what I exactly did. But I don't think its a hardware failure but a software glitch.
Hopefully somebody here with same problems.

hy, try to update Google play app. or one more thing, uninstall completely Google play app, reboot the device, and install it again.

I would love to try your suggestion but could you please be more specific? Which app are you talking about the playstore app or the Google app services app? How can I Uninstall such apps on a stock lollipop 5.1.1? I have never rooted my phone or whatsoever a real strange problem that showed up out of the blue.

Did a whole f*cking reflash with stock android (wiped all the data with flashtool) 5.1.1. but it didn't resolve the problem... time for a new phone.

I think this is not software problem. It was happened when I flashed to 5.0. I think flashing from 4.** to 5.0 killed my gps. After tried all kind of solutions in sent my phone to Sony service centre. The changed my motherboard without any questions. And my warranty was extended to +2 years. I think Sony know exactly what is problem. And my opinion is that is hardware problem. I also think this problem is just with first generation of z3c. My friends bought this phone later with android 5.** don't have any problems.
