Donut 1.6 = GPS not working

crixalis · May 17th, 2010, 07:26 AM

Any Android 1.6 ROM which I installed, GPS not working.
I've tried all ROMs found:
I7500XEFJB2, EJC1, EJC2, EJC4, EJC5, EJC6.
With GPS test program I have 0 satellite in view, 0 in use

With 1.5 ROMs GPS works perfectly
I do not know what's wrong

Thanks

Your GPS test program isn't compatible with Android 1.6 perhaps?

I try, google maps, IGO for Android, and 2 program for GPS.. no satellite...
With 1.5 ROM all this program works good

Ah, you didn't say that.

Have you tried going back to 1.5 at any point after you went to 1.6? What I'm getting at is, are you sure that it still works with 1.5 now, or did it just stop working and you're attributing that to a 1.6 upgrade when it's simply broken?

Now if I roll back to 1.5 ROM, gps works perfect. With 1.5 if I upgrade to galaxo 1.6.3.1 or simple 1.6 ROM my gps is broken. gps icon blink in status bar, but no satellite in view.

Right now if I install any 1.5 ROM, gps is work

LATER EDIT:
I just finished installing i7500XXII5 1.5 . I test gps and works perfectly. I found 6 satellites in 10 seconds.

Now if I install again 1.6 ROM, I can put my phone in clear sky, after 2 hour no satellite found.

Bizzare. I'm out of ideas, sorry. Anyone else?

giladgaron · May 20th, 2010, 06:20 AM

I have the exact same problem, so far I haven't found any solution.

Naruvam · May 20th, 2010, 06:27 AM

Had same problem till I've instaled galaxy and no sleep bug fix drakaz made....

crixalis · May 20th, 2010, 07:07 AM

I install again galaxo 1.6.3.1 one weeks ago and my gps is working :|
I think I found the problem, disable Use wireless networks and Share with Google. I'm not sure that's the problem but my gps goes well.
I don`t install geolocalisation fix.
Instead battery consume very fast, maybe is "no sleep" bug ?

Naruvam · May 20th, 2010, 07:47 AM

Probably no sleep bug check the battery history with spare parts...

crixalis · May 20th, 2010, 10:15 AM

If i disable "Share with Google" option in GPS settings should no longer have problem with no sleep. Its true ?
How can I discover if I have this bug ?

I check battery history:
Running: 92.0 %
Screen on: 16 %
Phone on: 0.5 %
Wifi on: 5.9 %

So ....is no sleep bug ?

inFECT · May 20th, 2010, 10:57 AM

yes

crixalis · May 20th, 2010, 11:01 AM

That means I must install Geolocalisation fix.
I hope my gps will be ok after install this fix.
I guess after fixing no sleep bug, Running percentage must be more little.

Of course it is, your phone has been running for 92% of the time, whilst its screen was on only 20% of the time. When the screen isn't on, the phone should be sleeping most of the time.

I suggest waiting a few days, Galaxo 1.6.3.2 will be released soon and the no sleep bug is fixed in it.

crixalis · May 20th, 2010, 11:10 AM

Sounds good Galaxo 1.6.3.2

I finsh installing no sleep bug fix... now lets hope that fix will work

r3dpuma · August 29th, 2010, 04:34 AM

I have the same problem, my gps keeps blinking and doesn't connect. Android 1.6 original.

I have Galaxo 1.6.3.3 with jb2.
