No GPS signal,

but my Note 9 had no problems!

@Micky79 I am anxious to know if he did find any way to fix the device. Please tell us.

I guess a voodoo priest will then make a dance around the S22U...

@michaelxy 😂 maybe that is how the S22 was created with spells and magics?

😆Maybe the NSA backdoor in samsung hardware is not working correctly. But now, samsung has some other problems:

Has the Chinese ever produced a phone for 1000€ with broken GPS and/or 4G.

So I took second phone with me this morning and made a video so we can check if you have the same issue. This is what bothers S22. Goes, goes, lose, freeze, you turn location off and on and it goes again

I tested the phone today and the issue is still there. I have contacted Samsung again and asked for a refund or a replacement but I've been told that only the technician can decide if the phone is beyond repair and authorise a replacement. I have booked the phone again for repair in next week and I will do it until it will be fixed or replaced.

Good job. Well at least they will know what is coming if they fail to fix it.

Thanks,  @Micky79 for the information. I do not know if it is good or bad news. The good is the consistency, meaning that the same error occurs on the same type of device. The bad news is that Samsung is have not found (yet?) a fix to the A-GPS problem.

Homeoffice and lockdown - we need no longer GPS 🙂

Return the phone before it is too late. This is not acceptable by sansumg.
