LG G2 GPS issue, observations and possible fix! topic

Hello everybody and glad to be part of this community.
First please excuse my English.

I recently bought an LG G2 LS980 ZVD kitkat 4.4.2 and notice that my GPS doesn't work, I tried every possible solution found in internet (not with flashing the device, because I'm like 2 days old in android :o ) even a peace of paper under the antenna.

I found a way to get my GPS work and get a lock in seconds but for the first start of the phone after a factory reset, if I restart the phone the GPS problem appear again.

So this what I did after baying the phone:

• root the phone with iroot.


• trying several solutions in internet(no luck).


• factory reset.


• set new configuration of the phone (language, name, email...).


• let the update of google services inc complete.


• let google hangout update.


• disable GPS and enable it again(the phone ask me to accept the terms -->ok... here he ask me again that the localization services was disabled in a previous version of android, do you want to enable it-->ok...).


• click on google maps (wifi is enable).


• get a lock (fix) in seconds :D .


• GPS test app: about 21 sat in view, about 12 sat in use :victory: .

For a month I thought that I fixed the problem until I restart my phone the problem return again. But I did the fallowing observation:

• enable plane mode --> no GPS signal.


• disable plane mode --> GPS test app and androits GPS app: getting about 8 sat in use, about 50 feet accuracy then signal freeze.

I reset my phone again, GPS work only for the first start again.

Any idea what does the phone do in the 2nd start after factory reset!!!

Thank you all.
