GPS issues after lollipop

Vincio2 — Tue, 06 Oct 2015 05:58:24 GMT

Hello everyone, I have upgraded my m2 to lollipop and all was right until yesterday when I used here maps. I set my destination and GPS found my position, but after a bit it lost signal, and after a bit it found me, after a bit it lost me, etc..... I tried with Google maps but it was the same, I tried this morning and same as yesterday... I am the only one with this issue?

(sorry for my English)

Can you go to Settings -> About Phone -> Diagnostics -> Test -> Run GPS test?

I confirm the issue with GPS, on Yandex Navi, Google Maps, AndroiTS GPS test free, Ingress - all apps are mistake GPS coordinates.

From 20 attemtp 1-2 is correct. In use this apps after lock/unlock screen GPS coordinates is change but changes coordinate is not correct too.

the time of whiting coordinate or my speed isnt relevant.

Any comment, SONY?

Have you tried resetting the phone software after you updated it? If not, I would recommend that you give it a try to see if the problems persist.

I restart the phone several times but the problem remains. I think communication with GPS satellites constantly falling

Hi @Mojso

Have you try clear the cache/data of your GSP application?

Perhaps the information of this link can also be useful in this case:

By resetting I mean reset the phone software (Settings > Backup and reset > Reset) and not just restarting the phone.

I reset the phone to factory settings but again I have the same problem

I suggest that you try to repair the phone software using PC Companion..

Before repairing your device you may want to backup your information first. Check out this topic for more information on how to.
How to backup?

If the issue should still remain I think that this needs to be examined and fixed at a repair center. For more information about how to submit your phone for repair and where, contact your local support team.

maybe Sony should allow a return to kitkat 4.4.4, many people have the same problem after installation lollipop 5.1.1
