^ Flash this: Optimal GPS settings for Galaxy Nexus CDMA - Galaxy Nexus - RootzWiki
Fixed immediately for me.
I'm on cm10-skankwich and it would take so long to lock on gps before.
Now I get a lock in about 5 seconds or less.
I check it using the GPSCompassMap app as well. I get 8/8 to 10/10 satellite locks consistently.

How do I flash that file? I'm using the Nexus toolkit but it won't recognize the zip.

Yeah. Not sure what the rom base that everyone is on, but i know any cm10 based rom or any derivatives of it will have this problem without the patch. OTA-based roms should have proper gps already.

^I find that when I'm typing, sometimes the touch screen gradually becomes laggy and less responsive and misses words. Especially with swiftkey 3 sometimes.
Turning off the screen and turning it back on fixes it temporarily. It's been an issue since 4.0.4 apparently.

Yeah, that's what's been happening with me when I have Swiftkey on.
Also... JB has way worse wifi reception. Horrible.

It'd be interesting to see if anyone else using OTA jb or derivative will also see improved gps performance from this patch. I know for sure I can see and lock on to way more satellites after patching.
I also compared with my 100% stock nexus7 gps.conf file. Seems the nexus7 uses completely different servers for gps. Nexus7 has no problems locking.

Using PA 1.9
Everything is smooth so far for me.
toggles don't work on tablet mode + gps doesn't lock location too well. CM10 to blame.

I'm using Bixie 4.1.1 OTA and have never had any GPS issues. I'm using Franco's kernel as well. I did flash a broadcom driver to fix my laggy BT but that should be unrelated.

So now that jb is out, any apps take advantage of the new notification system and added some cool things?

Therefore good luck on when you'll get the update. YAKJU which gets its updates from Google are the ones that are getting the Jellybean update. If you're ok with flashing roms you can convert your phone to YAKJU.

So I used the patch for a few days, and through GPSCompassMap I've gone from an 8/8 to a 10/10 sometimes 11/11. Locking is still near instantaneous.

as for GPS, i went back to the stock file as the new one didnt help me. Then I read to deactivate google location services, reset gps stats, and then enable google location services again, and VOILA it's working perfectly now. Apparently a bug with 4.1.1 on the server side? No need for a patch
