15 pages with reported GPS issues from a batch of different S22 owners and yet no answer or a fix from Samsung for their flagship. We are all expecting an update to fix the issue but I wonder: why mine has a GPS problem and 2 same devices of my colleagues doesn't? If there was a sw bug shouldn't they have the same issue? Today I returned to an official service center In GR to check it but I doubt they can fix and I wait to see what Samsung Greece will reply when I request a swap with a new device. Faith in Samsung is LOST.

I uninstalled the speedtest.net app at 5.45 pm, now I have checked and the GPS no longer works so the theory of the Speedtest app is unfortunately wrong.

Maybe there is others app for you that interferes with gps. Try to put all apps in advanced suspended mode (or at least those which use gps).

Has anyone noticed that when the gps fails the s-pen also fails to connect when you take it out?

It works on the screen but the air commands don't

Does anyone find that the S-Pen is also not connecting when the GPS issue happens?

It normally works but the Air Commands fail when taking it out, and apparently about the same time as the GPS issues happen, and it also works after rebooting.

Was having exact same problem in S21 Ultra and decided to upgrade to S22. Sounds like thats a bad idea and Samsung didn't care about fixing this Weak antenna issue. Thanks for sharing. Lets see when Samsung finds out it may lose its customer and give a firm fix.
