Google maps app always puts my starting point across the state and and unknown place. I've checked under settings>mail,contacts,calendars>my info and it's correct. Google still wants to start me across the state. I took it to the ATT store, no idea what's going on.
iPhone 3GS, iOS 5
Make sure you have location services on in Settings>Location Services, and have turn Maps to On. Then you should be able to tap the show current location arrow on the bottom left in Maps to move the map to your current location, and when you get directions with Start set to your current location it should be correct.
Well, even after pressing the arrow it showed me as in a city on the other side of the state. Location services was already on. Everytime I put a new address in to go to, it still shows my location somewhere else, I can fix it, but I shouldn't have to, it has the accurate home information stored correctly. Even more strange is that the address it starts me out on isnt even in my contact list
Location services "uses a combination of cellular, Wi-Fi, and GPS to determine your location" (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4995) so it's possible that your local cellular towers are providing inaccurate data. Also, having Set Automatically set to ON in Settings.General>Date & Time can improve accuracy.
