Gps stopped working?

[maylea31]

OK. I am now experiencing an issue on my beloved 928. All of a sudden the GPS wont lock and when it does it has my position 2 miles off. It just started like BOOM! Anyone else with this issue? Any suggestions besides getting a replacement? I mean, one of the things I touted about this phone was its great GPS I removed all programs I installed prior to issue to no avail in case an app was messing it up.

A new GPS satellite was launched today , maybe it screwed up the atmosphere, just kidding.

Is the issue still persistent, can you check on Multiple Programs like GMaps etc. Just to be sure.

Are you outside with a clear view of the sky? If you are trying to use GPS indoors, you might be getting a lock on cell towers rather than satellites.

Ok. I reset the device and it started working again. So I will just have to see if this repeats itself.
