I posted this in the forum for the ROM I was using with no response so hopefully I can get one here. I'm currently running candy 5 with stock kernel and gapps.
Ok, let me start by saying I don't think my issue is rom specific as I've seen this behavior on all cm 12 roms. So if I need to send this to Q&A I'd be happy to so.
So I use the app gps status which places a satellite icon on the top left of my status bar when gps (true gps sensor) is in use. Via gps status I get a lock in under 5seconds. Now my issue is this. When I open Google maps, the location indicator comes up but NOT the satellite symbol. In Google maps, it finds my cell tower but NOT my actual location. I let the phone sit for 10 minutes and it never locked. Now when I enter a different address in the search bar and start to navigate, the satellite logo shows up and I have a lock on my starting spot within seconds.
So I decided to try waze just to see if the satellite icon shows up and sure enough it does and gps lock is within seconds. Again you need the app GPS Status and the setting that puts the satellite symbol in the status bar when actual gps sensor is in use.
I tested this with the nexus 10 also on stock rooted lollipop and both the location and satellite symbol appear. I've attached a screen from the GPS status app as well as Google maps so you can see the status bar symbols I'm referring to. Thanks to anyone who takes the time to validate what I'm saying. This time I also installed the app cool too since it shows how man satellites are connected.
Again I want to reiterate gps locks fine when in use, and navigation works just fine as well.... It's just on the main screen of Google maps and only with Google maps that I'm having the issue.
