gps not working properly after iOS 9.3 update

I just installed the beta 10.4 and it restarted itself just like it would with any iOS update. When it woke up pokemon gonwas workkng and so was google maps navigation for the first time In months. My issue was that I could never get a god fix It would skip around or not work at all.

same issue as everyone else. only chiming in here for the purposes of exposing this issue and venting about lack of support from Apple in regards to a resolution. nothing new to add otherwise.

AAny news to an update I am experiencing the same issue.

GPS is 90 deg out most of the time, occasionally shows the correct direction and have the overhearing issue as well.

All since the last 2 9.3 updates.

I have the same issue. After upgrading iphone6 to 9.3.4 last week, the GPS stopping working. It keeps triangulating but cannot provide directions or show where I am, while driving.

Took an appointment with Genius Bar and went there today ( Aug 13th 2016 ). They restored the OS 9.3.4 again and asked me to drive around and test it. Still the problem exists.

Went back to them and asked them to restore my software back to 9.3.1 version which used to work. They refused to do it.

Now they are asking me to pay $299 for a flat repair cost to replace my iPhone 6. Asked them what happens if it fails again after the 90 day warranty window. As usual pay another $299 or buy apple care warranty.

They refused to acknowledge any issue with iPhone 6. Even after me referring to multiple threads on apple support community, they didn't bother to hear me at all :-(

How do me make Apple hear us out and do something for their issue. It definitely seems to be a batch/lot issue with certain iPhones.

Hi guys,

I am experimenting the same issue here in France with my iPhone 6..

Same story .. I went to an apple store .. blablabla.. they want me to pay ... blablabla..

I just bought the pieces and a reparation kit, and I will repare it myself.

i am just sick of Apple. I have a macbook Pro 2011 who didnt work for TWO YEARS until they initiates a reparation program .. Now it's my iPhone 6... APPLE, STOP PUSHING ME TO BUY AN ANDROID PHONE... 😠

I will let you know guys when I am done reparing my iPhone. But right know I am on vacation on Florida \o/.

David.

Try downloading and installing the ios 10 public beta. https://beta.apple.com/sp/betaprogram/guide#ios

Your problem sounds like the same as I had and my gps was fixed by the upgrade.

Thanks for the tip

This is exactly the issue I am having and Apple told me the same thing, pay to replace it. My phone was 2 months out of warranty. Awesome. Do you have a link to the tutorial that you used to repair it? I'm at the end of my rope, I'll try anything now.

I've been having the same issue for the past few weeks. Also, I'm having trouble connecting to LTE.

I took my iPhone 6 to Apple twice. The first time, they said it's a problem with the SIM card. I was still having issues so when I went back, they tested my SIM card in one of their tester iPhones and then they tested another SIM card in my iPhone. Finally after they concluded that it is a problem with the hardware itself and not AT&T, they offered a solution of replacing my iPhone 6 with the exact model for $299. Crazy! I'm not even done paying off for the 128GB iPhone under the installment plan! I see that iOS 10 resolved the issue for others but it didn't work for me.

I hope Apple will acknowledge this issue and fix it soon. It is very frustrating to not have GPS while traveling and my iPhone is constantly searching for its location so it's eating up all my data!

Did you get any fix from Apple??

Apple Inc. monitors and removed my post since i mentioned about iOS __ - but they are not able to fix the issue (ironically this is a shame).

The price tag of iPhone is too **** high, and then the reliability is questionable. Apple Inc - Please escalate this ticket, before this problem becomes a nightmare.

Third times a charm. Apple keeps erasing my comments! Good to know they can swiftly come in here when they want to subvert the fact that there is clearly a hardware flaw here. Anyways, I have the same issue. I brought my phone to my carrier and they replaced it for free with another iPhone 6. Guess what? Same issue. I've upgraded to the latest iOS, same issue. I've had the issue since iOS 8.4. I'm exploring iFixit now for a hardware solution.

True, they do swiftly remove our comments - if we mention the iOS __ .

I my case the replacement from apple or carrier is not an option - paid in full while i bought it and the warranty has expired.

Please post on discussion - if you find a way to fix this.

It is a nightmare to drive in NY without a GPS.

I've restored my phone to factory settings and I'm still having this issue. Sometimes the GPS works for a few minutes but then it loses GPS again and I have to wait several hours for it to get it back. This is very annoying and it looks like a firmware issue.
