Q: ios 9.2 GPS Problems

iPhone 5s

ios 9.2

GPS tracking error

 

As soon as I upgraded to ios 9.2 last week I noticed that all of my Map Apps were having difficulties pointing to my exact GPS location, be it Waze, Google Maps or even the default Apple Maps. I cannot find a solution to this.

 

I cannot even seem to downgrade back to ios 9.1.

 

I use maps everyday! So I could a solution to this problem as soon as possible.

 

Thanks Apple Community.

    I posted an actual solution in the post you responded to. It's a hardware problem. Take it to an Apple store for diagnosis.

    Stop shilling for Apple. People are seeking solutions not to waste their time at the Apple Store. Everyone with a 6 is out f warrant and dont want to pat $300 for a refurb 6. Apple refuses to even acknowledge a problem. If people could warranty their phone, they wouldn't be on here

    Couldn't agree more. Awesome if you can afford the extremely expensive Apple validated repair, but you even said the Apple guy didn't even acknowledge there was a problem. I am very grateful for the advice, thank you! I'll do some checking around as far as getting it replaced, but I have never taken apart an iphone before so I am not sure if I am brave enough. Too bad Apple doesn't offer a more affordable repairs.

    what is more important!!! in this thread there is being more censorship than ever! soooo many post deleted!

    I can understand Apple wont officially support you going to an unofficial technical service, but there are millions of people who can't reach one, so they must know they can fix it elsewhere...

    Think about it for a minute.

    1. Apple does not consider iPhones serviceable by anyone other than Apple or people trained by Apple. While there is some question about this policy, it is the current policy.
    2. A key point is that there are no standards of competence for independents who claim to repair iPhones. You take your chances that whomever fixes it won't make it worse or break something else.
    3. If you try to fix it yourself and break it, you will be angry with Apple for refusing to further repair it; they can't, because there is no way to know what you may have damaged, and to them the phone is a total loss. They can't refurb it and use it as a warranty replacement.
    4. If you recommend an independent to repair it, by allowing the post to remain a smart lawyer could convince a court that allowing the post to remain is an endorsement of that repairer and you could sue Apple if the repairer failed.

    Have you noticed that when you can't counter the argument you attack the messenger? Goes back to the ancient Greeks and Romans.

    I'm having the same issue.  Glad I'm not the only one.   I did a whole system restores and it did absolutely nothing.
