hi,
I've flashed the cm 4.2.2 and everything is really nice and smooth except the gps, it just can't get a fix. i have looked for fixes almost all say clear cache memory on google services etc.. but i do not have gapps installed and i'm keeping it that way. so far did not face any problem without the Google support.
So is there any way to fix the gps issue? is it because i haven't installed gapps?
appreciate any help since i'm a biker and ride quite a lot to unknown places.
Thank you.

Anyone else getting this error? Not sure if its the app, rom doing A2SD, theme or what but seems like I have a lot of issues with viewing traffic on google maps.
The cache is always 0, which I don't understand b/c I did not think that was moved over with cyans rom.
any thoughts?
I am having the same issue. I was getting the same message before I rooted and still have this issue afterward. I thought it would not be an issue with Apps2SD going. I never had the issue before upgrading Google Maps to the latest version.
had this issue on 4.0.2 but not 4.0.4 never was able to clear that up.
Hmm, okay at least i know i am not crazy. I guess this has been reported to cyan by now.
Anyone have any info on this?
Any clue where the cache is saved on Cyans ROM?
I found this fix which actually worked for me. I cleared the Data for Google Services Framework and I got GPS signal in about 10 seconds and it locked onto 8 satellites and stayed locked. See link here GPS Fix
Previously to this I got no signal at all. I tried various apps and still got no connection. I had this issue for a few months and thought that I had a problem with CM10.1 even after I did a complete wipe of data and reinstalled various ROM's.
I'm currently on AndroSlim 4.2.1 and seems to be fine at the moment. I was just soooo happy that I thought I should share this with you guys.

Hello,
It's not that I didn't get a GPS location, but after upgrading van CM10 to CM10.1, the app Endomondo can't measure the distance correct. After biking for approx. 50 meters, it states that I have already done another kilometer. (I rode a trail of 2 kilometers, and afterwards it said I biked for 31 km)
Installing a previous version of Endomondo does not help so I think the problem is with the 4.2 version of android.
Does anyone have that same experience?
Thanks.

Yeah I have the same problem. I tried Cardiotrainer as well and had the same problem.
Edit: This problem has been filed as a CM10.1 bug: code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=6883
I was searching this answer for years
big thanks
Thank you you are a genuis. I will spread the word.
Unbelievable, after clearing data for Google Services Framework almost instant gps fix!
Gps is again usable!
Thanks, it realy helped.
It is works on i9001?
Thank you
Registered just to say thank you!
I've been struggling with the crap GPS reception for the past 6 months where it seemed to say "GPS signal detected", but saw zero satellites. Can't believe this ten second fix got me up and running. I was about to take the phone apart again for the hardware bend up the antenna fix. Glad this worked.
Thanks!
Maybe it is because it is version 4.2.1?
Superb!!!
tested and successful!
:good::good::good:
thank you!
on my i9000 the GPS never worked
Hello everyone,
I recently flashed to this ROM and I love it so far. However, I am facing a major issue with my GPS; it is completely bricked. Whenever I launch an app like Maps, Waze or Navigation the apps will always show me my current location and then stop detecting any further motion. In the case of Waze, it reports "GPS signal lost, please try going outdoors".
I did not do anything exceptional or different from what I usually do, I attempted to use a nav app on "device only" and "high accuracy" on a route I used the GPS before, but nothing changed.
I flashed back to my backup and the GPS is again working fine.
Is there a way to fix this, or is GPS generally broken in the latest Nexus Experience ROM?
Thanks in advance!
Restore the back up where GPS is working. Open maps and let it lock on your location. Do not close out of the app. Boot directly into recovery, wipe, flash Nexus rom, flash gapps and reboot. This has worked for most everyone...good luck
This actually worked! Thanks a bunch!
Good Solution! :good:
I am trying to find a permanent fix for this.
I have tried multiple gapps providers and done the same on multiple roms. Issue even happens on stock with bootloader locked and no root.
For some reason after a couple hours of use i start getting a "Google Play Services" crash.
I literally have nothing installed but the select rom of the day and gapps. I have even tried different gapps presets.
Nexus 6, VZW, latest OTA, bootloader locked while testing.
It has become very frustrating and no rom forum or gapps provider forum has been able to provide a solution that works.
Is there a "known" problem with gapps in general that i missed the news flash on or something else wrong?
I think its been a while since anybody has had that issue. There was a version that was causing issue across the board.
What date or version of a Gapps package are you running?
If I remember correctly, it was like the services offered in a Banks Gapps package from 5/29 when I remember folks having the issue.
Fix then was turning off the high accuracy on your location services. Folks must have waited almost 2 weeks before Google fixed. Again I haven't seen in some time.

No suvh issues for me. It works ok. Try wiping cache or download the rom and flash again. Google for more info
I am facing this issue as well i have tried wiping the cache and it is still not navigating.. Is there any 3rd party apps to fix this issue?
Hey I'm facing that too
Even me facing the issue in LOS 14.1
Are you'll indoors or outdoors?
Try installing this if your location isn't working indoors, but is working outdoors.
