iOS 8.4 GPS Issue

Same issue here. No of these solutions work for me. Hope that apple fix it soon, because any navigation is uselless now 😟

Same problem. No GPS with Orange (poland) lte/4g on iPhone 5s. updated to 8.4 by iTunes. Try to turn off/on gps/phone, restore default setting- still have issue 😟

Ok! I fixed it.

1) Turn off location

2) Remove sim card

3) Reboot

4) Insert sim card

5) Turn on Airplane mode and turn it off

6) Turn on Gps

7) Done!

🙂

Doesnt work for me 😠

Anyone some other tips how to make it work again ?

I have not had any problems using Waze since my last post. I hope this continues. Location fix appears to be taking longer than it did on iOS 8.3. I'm not sure what fixed it, but I did not Reset Network Settings (I hate doing that and losing all of my saved WiFi networks 😕). Scroll back and find my previous posts for steps taken.

Try recalibrating your compass (rolling the red ball in the built-in Compass app).

That seems to help apps such as Waze get an accurate GPS lock without rebooting the phone.

It may not be permanent though. Apple will probably need to patch this to make it so.

I was running an out and back, using strava, going north on the out - whats up with all the crazy squiggles!. Also, its not holding me on Main St. Then some more squggles, and some thunderbolt action. I was listening to Apple Music on the way out also, coincidence maybe. Then on the turn back I toggled airport mode, the way back holds the road nice and tight, even shows my sidewalk crossing just south of the river.

So, try an airport mode toggle.

Got the same bizarre GPS tracking map FMMello's map shows, using both Runkeeper and Human on my bike ride tonight: both apps reported I'd travelled 1km after the first 0.5km due to the wildly zig-zag route it said I'd taken, and after maybe 7-10 minutes settled down. Both reported an incorrect final distance of my ride when finished. Prior to the iOS 8.3 update, my GPS tracks (map, splits, pace, distance) were flawless, up to 50km on my bike.

The weird thing is that my Apple Watch, while running the Activity: Outdoor Cycle" reported the correct distance at the end of my ride tonight (as compared to known milestones along my route and my bike odometer). So the fix iOS 8.4 offered owners of external GPS units like BadElf, which became unusable after iOS 8.3, apparently buggered up the internal GPS tracking functions.

I haven't tried all the things I've read so far that are supposed to fix this, but I'd prefer Apple make the fix rather than have me futz around with a bunch of settings and REALLY make a mess of my iPhone.

On my run today the GPS worked fine, no erratic location and it locked the signal fast. maybe the airplay mode toggle did the trick.

I did the Privacy -> Location Services / reboot sequence, and the GPS "appears" to be back in fighting trim. Was just heading out on a run with RK app monitoring, so should know for sure shortly. What a PITA. 😝

iPad 2 seems to have the same problem. I was on a trip and I had several issues due to 8.4 update.

Luckely I did the reboot sequence and it seemed to work. Nevertheless I would like to check during a car journey for being sure about it.

Location Services -> reboot sequence fixed this mess for me. Confirmed on a couple outing yesterday.

I'll have to try my BadElf dongle with my iPad Air to see if its screwed up as well. Never thought about it till the previous poster mentioned his iPad.

Same problem for me. I event try out on 9.0 Public Beta and it still have same issue.

Did you do the shut off location services, then power down phone, restart phone and then re-enable location services. That has fixed it on two phones in my household

Yea tryed all things from internet.
Hardrestore my iPhone like 5 times now i am on Beta and still have issue.
