Root Not gps note 8

Did you flash the exact correct ROM for your particular Note8 variant? And was it the original Samsung ROM or some other third-party custom ROM? If it's got an incorrect or a buggy custom ROM, factory resetting will not fix it.

If you let us know what Note8 variant it is, someone might be able to give you more specific advice or point you in the right direction.

Sammobile monetized a couple of years ago. That site had every Samsung ROM variant. Anyone know what it costs now?

It's the same procedure, only in the olden days at least Kernels if needed should always be the last to be flashed.
Typr *#0*# into the phone dialer and test everything first.

Ah your using third parties! I thought you were saying your GPS was completely inoperable. If you can't calibrate the compass from the test panel I gave you, use the official Samsung compass in the edge panel to calibrate the location. Remember that magnets, fridges, bed springs, trees, indoor use can have a detrimental effect on GPS.

I think that's as good as your going to get, I did once compare my position to a known Trig point and I was out by 1m, which is pretty good seeing as the tolerance is +-3m I believe. I can't help much more, my knowledge of Glonass is untested and I won't help if I'm not confident I can retrieve your phone from an error I may make.
