Hi, I created this thread after looking around for a solution for 2 hours.
My GPS basically isn't working. The icon in the notification bar is empty, not blinking or full. When I pull it down it says searching for GPS signal, but never ends.
This happens in every app using gps.
I have v4.2.2
It's also not a hardware issue, some time ago (maybe before I updated to 4.2.1, it was working)
Help? This is really really frustrating me.

Try this app and see if it helps. I used it on my Thrive when the ICS ROM gave problems.

Thanks, but I had already tried that multiple times.
That and GPS Status, etc.
Nothing worked.

I have had it happen before. Required several reboots before it started working again. I may have had to do a factory reset. Hasn't happened since.

You cleared the A-GPS data and everything? That part is very important.

MonkeyDot

I did a factory reset, still not working.

Yep, more than 10 times if that's relevant

Not sure if you are rooted but have you tried rolling back to an earlier rom like 4.1 or a custom rom to see if it works?

MonkeyDot

Unrooted.
