There might be some problem in GPS & Google Maps sync. Every time I use since I took cell it rarely shows pin point accurecy. There is always 30 to 50 m accuracy range. Plz solve it.

Hi,

First of all, have you checked your location services that you have the GPS and Google place services enabled.

Have you tried with any different GPS location app to see if register your position accurate?

I tried testing gps under service test menu. I think inbuilt sensors or its intigration with the platform has some issues to resolve. Sony please test it and resolve the issue.

On testing in same location open to sky; first time its shows about 24 satalites, next time it dropped to 10 and third time completely stopped functioning.

My cell was on battery stamina mode. This might be preventing GPS to perform. But still my view is all the softwares and platforms should be sync with sensors to perform designated function. Sony development team has to take this work and resolve.
