Problem with GPS

Having problems with any app that requires my location. Location Services are activated: GPS Satellites ticked, and Google's Location Service ticked. Google maps can pinpoint my location, but apps cannot. Visited Germany in January, changed my home SIM for a German SIM (belonging to a world wide telco). GPS related apps have failed to work since then. Back home and with my usual SIM - still no GPS for apps.

Loaded GPS Test - nothing.

Can anyone help sort this problem out please? I have done a factory reset, no improvement.

I have Android 4.1.2. Build 6.2.A.1.100

Thanks

Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.

I suggest that you try to reinstall the phone software using Update Service..

Before reinstalling 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.
