First things first, I'm extremely savvy in Android / cell info.
As the title says, anytime I load up something that uses GPS, it turns on the GPS, and cycles the cellular radio. I've tried QPST, factory image flashing, radio flashing, reset AGPS, downloaded new AGPS. Tried every GPS Tools app there is. Calibrated GPS.
If I disable GPS, and only use Data for location, it does not do this.
I've noticed that the APN table gets corrupted sometimes. Doing a reset to default restores all APNs, but adding the APN manually does not activate Data (even though the info is correct).
If I set the Preferred Network Type to LTE Only, and run GPS Status, it will eventually lock GPS location, and keep data active (after cycling the radio off and on), but then after a few minutes, it goes back to LTE, GSM, CDMA preferred, and I'm back at square one. Also, going into Cellular Networks (in Android Settings), and forcing 3G without LTE does the same. My best result seems to be leaving it on 3G in this menus, going into the *#*#INFO#*#*, and then setting it to LTE Only. But again, eventually it reverts, and/or if GPS is turned off at any point, then the cycle has to be started again. This only works for like 15 minutes at a time, so this is not reliable.
Due to this, I can't use any Maps, or even run Speedtests, since it tries to get your location first, and then do the test.
Obviously Pokemon Go is fudged up.
I have spent the last 3 days and nights fighting with my phone, flashing ****, modifying, restoring... I am so frustrated I have actually begun to fling and throw my phone around (very very harshly).
Failing this, I will break it in half, but I can't do that until I have my Note 7...
Please help. I know it sounds crazy, because GPS should not affect the data connection, let alone the ENTIRE cellular radio.
I'm thinking of wiping the EFS partition, but the only backup I have of EFS is from after this whole ordeal started.
IMEI is intact, I can see it with *#06#.
It is worth noting, this all started by Maps locking up (or I suppose the GPS getting messed up and crashing Maps). After I reboot the phone, GPS and Data still worked, but my location was stuck at the same spot, even though I had driven miles and miles away.
Trying to be as thorough as possible to try and get whatever help I can get. Would any debug logs help anyone at all? If so, which.
Thanks in advance!!
