gps not working properly after iOS 9.3 update

I Have same issue. After I slap my phone in my hand, GPS accuracy is restored and WIFI signal strength is improved

i can't believe that apple is refusing to address this issue, given how many people are effected

i also noticed when I apply pressure to top right corner of the phone, wifi signal seems to improve as well

i believe where iPhone 6 has flexible cable ribbon.

i Am curious if anyone tried to simply refit cable oppose to replacing it?

Yeah, this busted antenna theory is mine as well. I'm on the verge of using up all my monthly data PLUS my rollover data because of the poor Wifi reception, so I have a "Genius Bar" appointment tomorrow to see what they will say.

I am having the same problem after getting my screen replaced at the Genius Bar. Most days I am not able to get GPS accuracy beyond 1400 feet. I am taking my phone back.

Let me know what your experience after visiting the genius bar. I had my screen replaced as well, and I can no longer get good GPS reception reliably.

I had the same problem. Iphone 6.

After 9.3 Update, GPS not detected on Waze and WIFI signal seems to be much lower ( 1 bar within 8 meter distance from router)

9.3.1 update didnt help.

Currently complaining to apple support center and waiting for the investigation result

Phone is out of warranty,since it's been a while.

But definitely the update screw up the phone gps and wifi function.

I've reset the phone, reset the network setting, restore to default firmware 9.3.1. None seems to help.

Apple please help to sort this problem asap......

having the same problem, tried all resets, etc and nothing changed.

send the iPhone (6s, only one month) to apple, and they send me back the phone telling nothing was wrong...

the GPS is still not operating, and waiting... for what ? I dont know...

having this same issue, ever since last update I can't use any of my GPS on Waze or Maps , it just searches for signal and nothing happens . GPS logo is at the top but is gray & my LTE & wifi work fine . It's only GPS that isn't working at all.

I have this same problem too. Since I updated 9.3.1 something's not right with my iphone 6 GPS and Bluetooth signal.

GPS doesnt work any more and the bluethoot signal with my earphones is not good.

Please Apple help us! This device is not cheap.

Hello Guys

Still another unhappy Apple customer ( I've been ios addict since 2009! I'm seriously thinking about getting a Galaxy S7). I'm in the same case as most of you. Updated to iOS 9.3.1 and can't use any of my navigation apps ( Waze, Google Map...) Have tried every trick and solution found on the web but still nothing It's getting worse I believe. Same thing with WiFi it's getting weaker. but no problem with BT. My iphone 6 is out of warranty since 2 months and unfortuantely the screen is broken so I'm waiting for nothing from Apple' side. I was thinking about changing the WiFi, BT GPS antenna since I've ordered a new lcd digitizer to change the broken one so I will do the antenna by the way.I ll keep you updated if this works

Thanks

Hello

I'm back again may be with a good news 🙂. My battery was fully drained so the phone went off. I put the phone to charge and when it was on I tried to test my GPS signal and guess what ? Evrything is OK and the WiFi SSID the phone shows has more than doubled !!. I think I ve found the solution for your issues. Be careful. this needs to be proved still I don't know if it will still work tomorrow or in one week. Anyway it could be the beginning of a permanent solution

You can try it and keep me updated.

Cheers

Update:

Went to Genius Bar on Saturday. Ironically, GPS navigation works perfectly on the way there. Tech looks at my phone, does a full hardware diagnostic. Nothing wrong. We try resetting the network settings (since that's the only thing I hadn't done already). She schedules a follow-up call from Apple Support for Sunday to see if things work.

I try GPS navigation on the way home, and it's all screwed up. When I get home, Wifi reception still terrible as always. So nothing gained there.

She did say she spoke to another tech there and told me there is some known issue with the GPS location that is not fixed in iOS 9.3.1, but then she also told me that "Wi-Fi Assist" (aka the "Keep the Carriers Happy by Burning All My Data Without Me Knowing" feature 😠) was added in the latest release (it wasn't, it's older than that) and might have been the cause of my cellular data overconsumption. So I turned that off.

Follow-up call confirmed that everything is still broken. I am now headed back to the Genius Bar today to hopefully get a repair or replacement.

I Tried to drain all the battery and the do a full charge... Still doesn't work 😟

same problem here, does a downgrade to ois 9.2 help?

Wasn't able to downgrade to 9.2 because the release is no longer certified by Apple.
