    Had been working fine, but now can’t get GPS to lock on when using Google maps.

    Have tried restarting phone but no change. Any suggestions?

    Is it an Android phone? Mine has just started having GPS problems, it keeps not finding the signal. I found that if I go into Location, then Mode and switch from High accuracy to any of the other modes then back to High accuracy then the GPS signal is picked up and it works fine!

    Yes, Android.

    Will give that a try, thanks.

    Delete the app then re-install it, but give your phone a hard restart first.
    I had issues with the satnave on my phone last week, after the Griffin 12v USB adaptor I was using stopped working without my knowing and the battery died while I was using the app. I managed to get a charge, but it died again and the apps went all flakey, with no voice guidance. I did a hard restart, but still had some issues so I deleted the app, here, and re-installed it, and it worked fine after that.

    Thanks. Will try that as just realized that my crappy Huawei has a ‘skin’ which means I have bugger all GPS tweakage available
