Hello,

Once I installed the newest google maps, then calibrated I had not problem.

I set the battery to unrestricted and unticked the wifi and blutooth support.

One more thing: after you have a working gmaps and you work with it, keep open in the memory drawer.

Guys does it worth it to change the phone? I mean I have the problem with my s23 ultra about gps. And they said they will exchange it with a brand new one. Dose ot worth it. Or the new one will be possible to have the same problem?

if you are in 2 weeks order then make change it. After two weeks they will send it to repair and if they see it works you must pay for the repair. Does not matter it works properly or not.

However my mate has same phone with same job and he has no problem with it.

Hi, Is there a fix for this yet? It's actually driving me insane. I work for amazon delivering so not very helpful when I don't know where I'm going. I've tried the recommended fixes already. Just debating about sending the phone back/selling it
