Hello all. I have seen many people having problems on this forum (and many others) with their GPS on several custom ROMs. Well here is how you fix it:
I finally found the thing mentioned above relating to changing a GPS value from 1 or 2 to 3. It fixed the issue. GPS WORKS!!! It is not actually a value you can change it is a compass looking thingy with a line for the radius and in the middle is a number. You need to move the phone around in a figure 8 motion to change the value to 3. Here is what I did:
1) Make a nandroid backup
2) Flash a TouchWiz ROM
3) http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...php?p=56760440
4) Restore nandroid
Just to be clear I am running 12/31/14 Pac-Rom and I went outside with location set to device only (GPS sensor only) and walked down the street till I was well out of my wifi range and came back and the blue dot in Google maps tracked me the whole way.
