3GS GPS - Way out on accuracy - any other solutions apart from these:

Hi,
This seems to be a common theme from what Ive gathered.
Ive tried;
Rebooting the handset
Switching 3G Data off
Switching the compass from true to magnetic north
And yet the location is consistently wrong using, Google Maps, Google Earth, a Twitter app which uses your location, and a third party application which uses the GPS.
I have the latest software on the handset. And Ive tried using the gps both at home and in the city centre where I work.
Everytime it says Im way away from where I actually am.
I have the 3GS 32GB which is the top line model. Surely this should not be an issue with this?! I have only had the handset for a few weeks.
Ive read up on the blue circle and the dots that show your location, and what they mean. Apparently as the sign indicating a near pin point accuracy is incorrect it suggests it could be a hardware failure.
Is there anyway to check this?
Thanks

Almost 2 months ago I had the same problem.
I did almost everything.
So at the end I sent it to service.
Here in Greece the service time *****, so it took them 5 weeks to sent it back to me "fixed".
And I said "fixed" because I could have done it myself.
They just did a Reset Network thing.
It worked.
But I writing this to tell you as well that the case I had on my iphone was messing with the GPS signal.
Because before I sent it to service I did restore and reset everything (and network settings) but the iphone was still wearing the case.
When I receive it it worked for a day, and the next day began the same triangulation problems.
It showed me about 500m away.
What was the difference the case.
And how it regained the signal, by doing a Reset Network Settings.
From time to time it looks like it looses the signal, but with a Reset Network Settings it has it back.
my 20000 cents ( I type a lot :P )

  • Lightroom CC crashes on startup and "sign out, sign in" solution doesn't work, any other solutions?

    I downloaded LR CC on myMacbookpro and iMac.
    LR5 was installed on both of them previously.
    After installing, LR CC works fine onM Pro, but keeps crashing on iMac.
    I've tried the "sign out, sign in" solution, but never works for me.
    Is there any other solution I can try?
    Since the update, I've edited photos on my 13' M pro instead of 27' iMac and it is getting annoying...

    Did you update to LR 6.0.1 / LR CC 2015.0.1 ?
    <snip>
    von Pete.Green (30. April 2015)
    Today we released an update to Lightroom, Lightroom CC 2015.0.1 (Also, Lightroom 6.0.1) is now available.
    This bug fix addresses issues related to launching Lightroom and accessing online help.
    To Update:
    Choose "Help > Updates" within Lightroom, or click Update from the Creative Cloud desktop application.
    (If you're an early downloader, you may need to restart the CC Desktop application for update to show)

    Exclamation mark appears instead of photo. Recently upgraded from i mac to Macbook air and all was transferred over. I have run all the repair and rebuild functions in iphoto. Any other solution?

    Since iPLM failed to help try the following:
    Starting over from scratch with new library
    Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
    1. Open the library package like this.
    2. Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    3. Drag the subfolders of the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the open iPhoto Library package into the open iPhoto window a few at a time.
    This will create a new library with the same Events (but not necessarily the same Event names) as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.
    Note:  your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.

    You can disable or remove that button, but that won't prevent users from making the changes on the about:config page directly.<br />
    You can lock the related network.proxy prefs if you do not want users to change the connection settings.

  • Trying to clear unread emails shown as  a badge next to mail icon, have done network reset and now a complete factory reset and checked server. Any other thoughts on clearing these ghost emails??

    Understood, the difference with iTunes being that Apple doesn't (currently) require you to enter any account info on the device until you try to purchase something from their store. Initial setup is just a connection to the iTunes software and you're good to go.
    While I understand that RIM wishes the account to be defined, they also need to be aware that doing so during the initial setup without proving an option to do it later, while failing to provide any means to change it afterwards (short of a device wipe) doesn't always suit the the situation. Hopefully they'll be reviewing the forums to gather feedback that they can incorporate into future software updates.

  • IPad (4th Gen Retina Display Wi-Fi) (iOS 7.0.4) won't sync new music from iTunes (Windows).  Only solution found was to uncheck "Sync Music" under Music tab, apply, then recheck "Sync Music" and apply. Any other solution?

    iPad (Retina Display) (iOS 7.0.4) won't sync new music from iTunes (Windows).  Only solution found was to uncheck "Sync Music" under Music tab, apply, then recheck "Sync Music" and apply.  This is timely and aggravating.  Any other solution?
    I have also tried a hard reset.  I have also gone into settings and checked "display all music". 
    Anyone know if the new update will have solutions to this problem?

    Successful experience with Apple Care.
    If anyone is having the same problem, there's a chance it's an issue with the Mobile Device Manager for iTunes. The key is to ditch the old/corrupt file and replace it via clean iTunes installation.
    Here's the fix that worked for me:
    1. Trash iTunes (uninstall); don't forget to trash it from your dock if you have it there.
    2. Head to /System/Library/Extensions/ and trash file AppleMobileDevice.kext
    3. Head to /Library/Receipts/ and trash AppleMobileDeviceSupport.pkg  ( * this may or may not be there * )
    4. Restart computer (& empty trash)
    5. Download fresh & clean iTunes and reinstall.
    Voila! The content is now properly recognized by iTunes, the capacity bar registers the correct amount and type beyond "Other", and now I can put music back on the iPad.

    Hi, I can't get my old wacom intuos2 to work with mountain lion, any suggestions? Apart from buy a new tablet.

    I was out of town for a few days. I had no issue installing the driver on Mountain Lion (10.8.2). What specifically happens when you try to install?
    If you get this message:
    then you need to right-click on the installer package and select 'Open' when you get this message:
    If this isn't your issue you need to be more specific about what is happening.

  • Does CRM supports firefox and other browsers apart from IE

    Hi,
    can you pls share if CRM supports firefox and other browsers apart from IE. are their any specific settings to enable other browsers?
    any documentation would be helpful.
    thanks
    RH

    RH,
    From The PAM choose the link SAP Application Components->SAP CRM.
    Then pick your release of CRM.  Then in the release detail information,  choose the web browser and/or web browser platform tabs.
    I.e. I did this for CRM 4.0 and found that basically only IE was supported for IC webclient.
    Take care,
