GPS issues?
My phone's GPS keeps dropping for some reason. Places I had no problem with on my Nexus 5 suddenly become dead zones with the Mate S. Anyone else have similar issues? My phone was originally from China and I'm in the US if that makes a difference.
I have not had any issues, actually it is probably one of the best functioning GPS's I have had in a phone. It generally works fast and well I have just returned for a week's vacation where I used it everyday for walking around - no problems what so ever., and fast reception even using the phone with no data connection.

That does make a diff. Most China devices are hard coded to only connect to china based Sats and due to this they have trouble connecting to any sats that are not based out of china. Just one of the things you give up when buying china devices.
For me also the Mate S has the best GPS I ever had. Locks so fast and inside the building where I never had before GPS.
gps problem
After firmware update I do reset and a-gps stop working. The sattelites find slowly and works very bad
I use my Mate S from early December 2015.
On December 15th I upgraded the firmware to version B145.
I had no problems with the GPS until ... last week. Then (in Endomondo v 12.0.1), GPS signal dropouts began occur frequently.
I too have started to get blank spots with the sat nave complaining of no signal. Checking gps test shows plenty of sats. I have reset the agps and let it learn its own to see if its any better. Thus was spot on, not sure what has changed as the firmware is still the same at C433B114.
Yesterday, I upgraded my Mate S to Marshmallow (Beta - B303). The problem with the GPS still occurs but ... only the first few dozen minutes.
Then - for the next two and a half hour - everything returns to normal and GPS in Endomondo works fine.

I think, I found a solution to this problem.
When I switched battery mode to Normal (previously I used Smart mode), the GPS works normally all the time.

Hi!
Please contact to me on mail [email protected]. I have a question about gps. Thank you!.
Has anyone solved this issue? Would rooting my phone help? I'm in Canada and my GPS was working until last week and I didn't even do an update.
Same issue apparently with no reason or update at all....I think it s definitively a gps hardware issue, maybe due to overheating after hot times spent on the car cocpit....any news on thos topic???
Hi Guys, I has the same issue as I was not able to fix anything for 20mn. But then, searching on the net, I found GPS Test app that was fixing thing for Mate 8. So I installed it, I cleared my AGPS with it and then it updated everything and I could fix within 10s. So great. And sometime, even when I'm in a house.
Link please!
Found the apk but still hanging randomly...i ll try a factory reset...any othe hint?
I'm having The same problem. Today I'm going to try:
Power Mode: Normal
Prorect my exercise app: SportsTracker
Prorect GoogleMaps
Enable High Precision Location (GPS, mobile data and Wi-Fi, all activated, of course).
I'm sure the problem is a confluence of factors: Locked Screen, Power Saving Mode (Intelligent?) and unprotected apps, including GoogleMaps

I'm in the UK (London) and have tried several firmwares, none of them gave any acceptable result for the matter that the phone doesn't lock on any single satellite.

I've sent the phone on a warranty repair (O2) saying that it doesn't lock on any satellite. Just got it back today and here's what they said:
"one of our engineers has found the problem and fixed it. For quality control, another one of our engineers checked the repair."
Guess what, nothing happened it still doesn't work. I hope you can come up with some solution - even if it involves hardware fix.

Ask them what problem was found, was it related to software or hardware?
Its mostly the settings which might need tweaking as per your location. I have noticed that 1st time gps locking takes time & you should have working data connection to assist its locking & after that the phone maintains a cache of your locations.
GPS dont work indoors so go out in open park 50mt away from the nearest buildings & switch on the gps & see if it locks or not. Indoor the phone uses cell tower to determinate your location but gps wont lock your location due to missing signals.
These are my settings.
menu>settings>Location & security>
check all with green check mark.
use wireless network
use gps satellites
use sensor aiding
Might help to lock, try these & report back.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1032034
Worth a try and also worth looking at the GPS fixes posts .
5 mins = 7- 11 sats on a cold boot for me .

Did you tried a diffrent modem? Like JQ1 or something. Maybe that help.
I've tried several firmwares with different modems, all of them gave the above result outdoors, still after 10-15 mins waiting. The settings are the best touted around the web, also tried FasterFix... no luck.
I really suspect a HW failure or something with the antenna. The SNR value starts off at around 30-35 when the device senses the satellites, then slowly goes down to 14-18.

Why do you need GPS fade? Doesn't the great lord of the dark tell you where to go?

Sorry i'm not native english speaker.. what's that you're saying in other words (gps fade)? The great lord of the dark must be from Wheel of time lol
Development in the case:
As Chris_84 suggested, i've tried XXJQ1 modem and i've managed to get a lock on 3-5 satellites for about a second, then dropped. But the SNRs are far better than the one on the screenshots. I'll try some others too.

I had exactly the same problem with GTI9003 fw DDKB2. I tried all the softwares which you tried and results were exactly same. No settings worked. So I changed to XXKB3 available in forum. The GPS worked instantly without having to change any settings. I have tried this on two different pcs and it works. So you can try this fw and let us know the results.
@mrdeepakbajaj
the signal is still low with only 4 satellites & none locked as yet in your screenshot but I have found a fix here with gps tweak
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1043034
Now I can lock within 2 sec with 5 mt accuracy to 11 satellites, here is my post about my testing.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=142
After updating my trusty S4 Active i9295 from 4.2 to 4.4, I found the GPS to be less reliable than before, and sometimes take quite a long while before getting a lock.
Further investigation of this heinous issue revealed to me that no GLONASS satellites are in use:
I present exhibit A:

The squares represent GLONASS satellites, they are all visible, but greyed out (means not in use).
Do any of my fellow KK users experience this issue? And if so, are there fixes for this truly outrageous behaviour?

Now that you mention it... Never noticed that one before. Same problem here - even checked my native nav app and it didn't use them. Search gave me another thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=52841297&highlight=glonass#post52841297
People started complaining quite a while back. Seems like only the i9095 was affected by this and it was fixed with their NE5 firmware... Basically the i9295 has the same hardware - maybe its the same issue and they didn't think of fixing both firmwares....
Anyone tried the new I9295XXUCNH2?

I have NH2 modem flashed. In GPS Test i can see few triangles active (help statest that triangles are GLONASS satellites). GPS Toolbox also shows two kinds of items, green circle and grey box. Apparently it's working?
Now this is really odd. No matter what I tried earlier today - I couldn't "connect" to any glonass satellites. Sygic, GPS Status as well as GPS test were showing the satellites but no signal. After reading your answer I tested again. Instant fix and at least three glonass satellites... Still NE5 firmware - seems like I have to keep an eye on it for a few days... Hopefully it was just glitchy once

I did not catch.
What is the fix ?
GLONASS still does not work with NH2 firmware.
fix
for your responsibility.
Files from i9505 ROM (Omega v37)
For a bit better fix look for my thread in development forum.
Some, not critical AGPS related framework changes also merged from 9505 to my mega pack.
Solved
After updating my S4 Active to 4.4.2 the Glonass satellites were not locked anymore.
Now my son bought a second hand S4 with 4.4.2 already installed and surprisingly Glonass satellites are locked.
I copied the file system/lib/libloc_api_v02.so (same size) to my phone, and tada, I have Glonass satellites locked!!!!!!
So I'm pretty sure it is a bad file copied by Samsung in the ROMs and not a KitKat bug.
See attached rar-file from another thread which put me on the right track.
The 7z-file is the one that worked for me, didn't try the the rar-file.
Thanks to the poster of the file.
Just unzip the file and copy it to /system/lib and reboot your phone.
Thank you very much!!
Finally getting GLONASS fix again Much faster
Thanks Foresterawd
I got a strange thing. After replacing the libloc in system\lib, my GPS position is 50 metres to far south...
Although the accuracy is 3metres.
Now I changed the gps.conf in system\etc too and now my position is 50 metres to far north...
What could this be?
EDIT: After restarting, the position is correct with the new gps.conf
So I've been searching but I can't find a solution to this annoying wakelock. This thing appears when I left wifi to connect to my mobile data. It causes a huge battery drain
It ONLY appears when I'm with mobile data on and wifi off. So, if I am connected to wifi or I keep data disabled, there's no drain at all
This is desperate. Very very desperate. I can see that some users are suffering this heavier than others (hardware problem?). Already tried with other sim card from other carrier, but no fix at all
I appreciate any kind of help. Attach two pictures for you to compare, this is a test for around 4 minutes with screen off. One is with wifi on, the other with wifi off, so using mobile data.

I'm not sure for your device, but for mine, N4, this is related to 3g network. So this wakelock is present when you are connected to mobile network via 3g.
To reduce and minimise this wakelock to unnoticeable minimum, I use smart radio option inside gravity box, bit you can use even better application, intelli3g: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.voidvapps.intelli3g
This app basically switches automatically to 2g when screen is off or you are connected to wifi.
As I said, this is all assuming your device is similar to mine, since I don't know nothing about your device
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk
Thank you mate, but no luck, for me that doesn't fix the issue. In 2g it's the same drain that 3g. In fact, I used to use that app, but there was almost no improvement
So... People with htc one which are your stats, can you check your wakelock time while staying in 3g?
Btw I'm gonna try new kernels now... I've been said all kernels will be the same for this wakelock, but just in case...
need some help with this msm.hsic.host wakelock
need some help with this msm.hsic.host wakelock, I will try to post more screen shots. My battery drain occurs at any time, with wifi or not. WLD did say this was a kernel problem and recommended toggling on and off mobile data, this had no affect on this beast.
to me it seems like this is wifi network location reporting. I've tried to stop google's network location accuracy mode but it keeps coming back. If I'm outside using mobile data and gps I'm ok, only on wifi which I think google is trying to use the network location accuracy mode. Is there a build prop setting I can edit or apk to disable.
I have a stable wifi connection while one of my android gets the proper speed, A2 gets low amount of data at that same time. On a 3MBps package, my other phone crosses 250kbps, while A2 gets some what 110-150kbps in general. I have double checked this matter. FYI, this was in A1 too after updating to oreo. I am on august patch update. Please shed some lights regarding this crucial matter on HOW TO FIX IT
My Mi A2 is losing connection constantly, so it must be a general problem.
I've noticed that 5 Ghz reception isn't as good as my previous phones at long distances, but at short distances I'm getting over 17 MB/s (136 Mbps).

surprisingly it's the same issue with Mi A1 and official ROM - sometimes drops connection - not customs like LOS or RR.
but due to full treble comptability we should have benefits from flashing GSIs soon
it seems work fine on my device.

Have u find any solution? I have the same problem. Wifi sometimes get too slow to load anything, but in other devices it works perfectly fine.
Same problem here. Have a 200U/10D Mbps package. On 5GHz i pull about 72Mbps and upload 10Mbps which is acceptable (tho I've seen in this thread that the HW can do much more), but on 2.4GHz, it's just hell... I get 2.6 down and 2.2 up. In these tests I was next to the router so they are not affected by distance.
In my case the Mi A2 is pretty much identical speeds with (my router) 5GHz wifi as the other phones I've used recently. That includes Huawei Mate SE, LG G6, Google Nexus 5 and 5x. I'm never connected for more than a few minutes though.
I had the same problem. Then I did a connection reset in the network and internet menu, and that did the trick.

Could you please elaborate how you did the reset please?
Oke to do this go to the settings menu. Choose 'network and Internet' Then in the top right corner click on the 3 dots. Then choose reset.
Did that but didn't help. Still get VERY bad speeds on 2.4 GHz
I have the same problem. I have found a solution for me. Plane Mode and WiFi on. With this i have a normal wifi speed. With activated Sim cards the speed ist slow. Regards
Have you checked, when you have WiFi problems, for CPU stuck at Max freq?
BTW, I had plane mode activated for 2 weeks and never had CPU problems and 1st day I opened it came back.
Found a solution
Hey so what you guys need to do is hold the Wi-Fi icon in the quick menu, and then press Wi-Fi preferences and the press advenced, network rating provider, and then click none. This worked for me.

Hello all,
First post on the XDA forums because you guys are awesome and I couldn't find anything else on this issue anywhere. So I have had my Asus rog 2 for about 2 months now. I got it on eBay tencent Edition for the US. It's a beautiful phone and it works great. However...
The signal bar keeps dying. Whenever I would game (in this case, mobile legends) I would occasionally have my full strength/half strength signal bar go to 0 signal or just none (empty bar or no bar at all) which would not only shut off my data, but it would also cause my wifi connection to disconnect. It takes about 20-30 seconds for it to reconnect which is way too long when you're in a Moba. It's super upsetting since my older phone, the Poco has no issue like this and it doesn't even have a Sim card! I have this Juggernaut phone but I'm forced to play on the Poco. Very sad.
Other gripes with it is the ****ty H+ connection on data. That being said, I am using a Chinese phone in the US so I've just come to terms with it. I have cricket wireless so it is a band that the rog 2 has. My friend told me to maybe flash a new os (global version) and maybe that would fix everything. I'm not sure, I was looking for more feedback. Let me know guys!
Below I have attached a screenshot that gives an example of what I mean.

I have no idea why my images aren't working, so if you need the link to view what I mean let me know. But it's basically just the phone signal bar going from full strength or whatever it is to 0 strength. It goes from saying "cricket" (meaning I'm connected) to no connection, emergency calls only and then eventually back to cricket. About a 30-second process to get reconnected every time.

But I don't know how to reproduce this behaviour. Mine doesn't seem to do, however, there are a handful of people on that thread where it does happen...
You could maybe report it to asus forums, there doesn't seem to be any answer here... Other than, like you say, maybe flashing the whole device again with a fresh rom. Can't say for sure that would work though...
If you do decide to flash again, you might wanna use this guide and check the video linked in that OP to see how to do it...

Hello all,
First post on the XDA forums because you guys are awesome and I couldn't find anything else on this issue anywhere. So I have had my Asus rog 2 for about 2 months now. I got it on eBay tencent Edition for the US. It's a beautiful phone and it works great. However...
The signal bar keeps dying. Whenever I would game (in this case, mobile legends) I would occasionally have my full strength/half strength signal bar go to 0 signal or just none (empty bar or no bar at all) which would not only shut off my data, but it would also cause my wifi connection to disconnect. It takes about 20-30 seconds for it to reconnect which is way too long when you're in a Moba. It's super upsetting since my older phone, the Poco has no issue like this and it doesn't even have a Sim card! I have this Juggernaut phone but I'm forced to play on the Poco. Very sad.
Other gripes with it is the ****ty H+ connection on data. That being said, I am using a Chinese phone in the US so I've just come to terms with it. I have cricket wireless so it is a band that the rog 2 has. My friend told me to maybe flash a new os (global version) and maybe that would fix everything. I'm not sure, I was looking for more feedback. Let me know guys!
Below I have attached a screenshot that gives an example of what I mean.
I have no idea why my images aren't working, so if you need the link to view what I mean let me know. But it's basically just the phone signal bar going from full strength or whatever it is to 0 strength. It goes from saying "cricket" (meaning I'm connected) to no connection, emergency calls only and then eventually back to cricket. About a 30-second process to get reconnected every time.

I used to have the H+ issue when I was with AT&T but after switching to simple mobile I've been getting 4G ever since. Really any plan on the T mobile network would probably resolve that issue.
Evetyday i have this damn problem
Also wifi with sim problem
