Started having GPS problems with my Galaxy Note 4 after the Lollipop update

Before the update it worked pretty good, it would loose signal every once in a while. Maybe once or twice a trip. Now it is almost completely unusable. It will just constantly loose signal, or not update at all. Is there any word of this being fixed any time soon?

Hi there
I’m sorry to hear you are experiencing GPS issues! I’d be happy to help! Can you please answer the following for me so we can get a better grasp on what’s happening?
Application being used (E.G. Google Maps)
GPS setting (Device only, Battery saving, High accuracy)
Frequency of GPS signal loss
Thanks,
Charise

Why am I having intermittant problems with my Galaxy Note 4 touch screen?

I've had my new Samsung Galaxy Note 4 for two days now and have noticed intermittant problems with the touch screen. I've even added more touch screen sensitivity in the settings area and it has NOT helped at all. Sometimes I can tap on the screen repeatedly and find the phone not respond, then all of a sudden it responds. As I keep using the touch screen...suddenly it stops responding again. It's extremely frustrating especially when it's a brand new phone. I have now found several other reports of this on the internet, but have not found a fix. Suggestions (besides reset to factory settings and install each app one by one and test the phone)? Since it's an intermittant problem, it's hard to tell if any particular app is the sole contributing factor to this. Based on my experience and that of others...this appears to be a fairly common "bug" that we consumers are experiencing. Help!?

I recently upgraded to Lion, and immediately started having consistent problems with Open Office 12 (would hang, and need a Force quit to recover). Has anybody else seen these problems? Any solutions other than going back to Snow Leopard? (I did).

I recently upgraded to Lion, and immediately started having consistent problems with Open Office 12 (would hang, and need a Force quit to recover). Has anybody else seen these problems? Any solutions other than going back to Snow Leopard? (I did). But I'd like to use iCloud with iPad.

Hi Pete. The repair of disk permissions can help resolve any application crashing or misbehaving.
As for Lion and the two camps, I think that is a reasonable observation. In my office we have about a dozen Mac's and about one third of those Mac's had problems after updating from 10.6 to 10.7. The main problem for these Mac's was a loss of wifi stability. But for the other two-thirds, Lion was a smooth transition.
Personally, my Lion experience was fine. But I did get a new i7 MacBook Pro with Lion already installed and only had to migrate my user data from a 10.6.8 TM backup.
So I think that is a key for Lion's operational success. A clean install of Lion on a new Mac would not cause too many operational issues. But an installation, or more correctly, an update to Lion from SL increased the chances of failure for some users - especially when old software & plugins resided on the Mac. And I would say that they were the people that you saw at the Apple store.
As for the "latest release of Lion fixed my problems" statement, my experience with these and other forums is that people mostly only go there to complain about the problems they are having. If they are having no problems then they either keep it to themselves or they try to help the users who are experiencing trouble...

Is anyone having a problem with iPhone 5 not backing up to iCloud. No problem at first now it says it will take 35 hrs, etc to back up.

Thanks for the swift reply, I have been looking online and a loose plug seems to be somewhat of an issue with many, I hope mine is actually a problem and not what others are experiencing. It's taken me this long to even reach out for the simple fact I HATE being a complainer but this is just horrible.
Do you have an iPad 3 as well? And is yours not experiencing any issues close to mine?
Thanks again!

We have been having a problem with newsletters for a client. The newsletter works fine except if we add a button and/or link to the top zone on that newsletter it blows up ONLY ON iPhones!

This happened last month too. It seems to be related to length of the newsletter too. It works on every device except iPhones - so weird.

Hi, is anyone else experiencing i-phone only problems on email campaigns? not bashing Apple, just having issues where our newsletter are only having issues on iPhones

Is anyone else having problems with syncing your phone & iPad since the last update?

is anyone else having problems with syncing your phone & iPad since the last update?

Here's the problems I'm having with iPad 2 and iOS 5.1:
Okay ... so, because I had less than a 1 Gig left (as reported by iTunes) on my 64Gig iPad, and the majority of the space was being used by "Photos" ... I decided to not keep my PC photos directory in sync with my iPad (Windows 7). So, in iTunes, I unchecked the option to sync computer photos to the iPad. I got the standard popup warning message that my iPad would not contain those albums after the next sync. I clicked OK and proceeded to sync expecting to have lots of space freed up.
But weird things happened after syncing.
(1) I still have all my photos on my iPad .... nothing disappeared at all. (And performed multiple syncs to try to force the change ... still nothing has been removed from my iPad.)
(2) Somehow, I gained 20 Gigs of free space, as reported by both iTunes and my iPad as well.
Anyone know what's going on here?
I do have iMovie and another movie making app, Avid. Both of these contain projects that refer to photos in albums that were supposed to be removed after the sync ... but I can't imagine that would keep them there. Anyone have any ideas?
I also installed the iPad app, iPhoto. I noticed that it build a directory listing and continuously want to update that listing from time to time.
Would any of these things cause the iTunes photo sync changes to be ignored? And, how did I get free space to report back with an additional 19Gig or so, when there's no change at all.
Unsure what's going on ...

Having many problem with wifi....after installing lion......

Having many problem with wifi....after installing lion......it connect with wifi but not with Internet and at the same time iPad 2, iPhone 4 works smooth......help......I have MacBook air without thunderbolt and mac mini

I had the same problem last night. Boot into OSX and reboot the router - fine. Boot into Windows and wrong. Here were my fixes:
Firstly, I kept all the settings on my router solid. Just leave them as they are. Boot into OSX and check the Network settings and make a note of your IP address and the router's IP address.
Second, boot into Windows, then open up your wireless connection settings and navigate through to the properties where you can set the IP address.
Third: Set the IP address to your routers IP address changing the last set of digits to a value between 5 and 255 (I have 8 devices so I set the last two digits to 10.) This will keep the IP static.
Tab through the Mask settings to default those.
Then set the default gateway to your router's IP address.
Check that the Network Adapter's setting has IPv6 disabled (uncheck the box)
Finally: Set the primary DNS server to 8.8.8.8 then the secondary to 8.8.4.4 and then reboot the router.
That's what got my connection running.

WHAT??? Now that's a disappointment! I was sure the all-seeing, all-knowing Prof. Kappy would instantly discover the problem thru time and space....
Ok, back to the issue at hand, the Prof. is right. In none of the OP's participation, nor in any of his choir of followers save mommy power is there the least hint of what Apple product is failing. While y'all get a move on and disgorge the details, may want to try a Safe Boot. Hold down the Shift key prior to the startup chime and wait awhile. IF it starts, then it means you have some third-party software that's causing the problem. Else there's a strong probability a complete reinstall will occur in your near future.
In the future and in spite of what some purists may say, be sure to service the system disk BEFORE patching. By "service" I mean booting up the Mac using your Install DVD (Snow Leopard or priors) or booting in Recovery Mode (Command R, in the Lions and successors), running the Disk Utility found in that mode and doing a Repair Disk and Repair Disk Permissions. Until NO errors show up. Cause patching up an already damaged system will only make things worse.

Problem with Samsung Galaxy Note 3: No SD Card Found

Hi,
I am having this problem for the past few days and am not able to use my Spotify account on my Note 3.
This is the error message when i start Spotify:
No SD Card Found
We found no place to stroe our data, please check that you have a working SD card and free space.
Your kind advice is needed.
Thanks guys

I think I found a solution, and certainly found a solution for my NOTE 3 :)
Now I have spotify on internal memory, but my offline playlists are stored on the SD card :)
After installing spotify, in the "com.spotify.mobile.android.ui", i found 2 folders "Users", 1 is in the "files" and another in "spotifycache", so I suspect the second is responsible for offline content.
Here's the trick:
1. remove the SD card, install spotify, start and log in, insert the SD card.
This solves the problem of installing spotify. Before the next step, quit Spotify, go to the App Manager, find Spotify, and kill the app manualy for sure. Important ! do not clear the application data or cache.
2. On the phone's internal memory find "com.spotify.mobile.android.ui" (should be in Android / data ), copy and paste to the SD card.
(If you do not have folder Android / data on the card, create it , the files on the card must have the same path)
3. Now go back to the phone memory to Android / data / com.spotify.mobile.android.ui - you should see 2 files and 2 folders: spotifycache, Users, orbit.settings, prefs. Delete the folder "spotifycache".
4. Run spotify, download the offline playlist. A message can jump, something about "playlists desynchronization, but do not worry, it's a good sign :). The message disappears and if spotify start up, it means that you succeeded. Thats it.
To make sure it worked for u, check again directory "com.spotify.mobile.android.ui" on the internal phone memory, there should be no change so you should only see only folder Users and 2 prefs files. But on the SD card in the folder "spotifycache / storage / " should be your playlists offline ( just check the directory modification hour in file manager) .
I do not know if it will work on other phones, but maybe it is worth to try.
cheers!
P.S One more thing i found during my searching :) After copying the directory "com.spotify.mobile.android.ui" on the sd card, first I tried to clear the data from the app manager and as it turned out, both folder was removed, from the internal memory and SD card, both folders "com.spotify.mobile.android.ui" disappeared. So on clear installation, spotify sees sd card and sd isn't a problem, just don't want to install it on any data.

Is anyone else having a problem with a "no service" issue on the iPhone 5?

There are times my phone will go to "No Service" when the signal is low. I just got the iPhone 5. I did not have this problem with my 4. It doesn't say "searching..." it just automatically says "No Service" for a few seconds and then back to having bars. It comes and goes. I had my phone replaced at the Genius Bar and still have this problem. Is anyone else also having this problem? I hope it's just a software issue they will solve with an iOS update.

I have this problem all the time. when i get back home from a overseas trip (about 3-4 times a month) I have to turn airplane mode of and on a few times to get rid of the "No Service" message.
