GPS not working with Meteor

    For the past couple of weeks the gps function ('Location') on my phone (S4) hasn't been working so finding directions to a place has been quite frustrating. A friend, who's also with Meteor, has had the same problem with getting directions. When you put in your destination in the Navigation app it just says "Searching for GPS..." but never moves from that (obviously the 'Location' is switched on).

    Would anybody have any suggestion on how I could fix this? Thanks.

    Sounds like the phone is not picking up the GPS signal properly.

    Is there some way in the settings to reset GPS? Maybe it's a hardware fault?

    GPS has nothing to do with your provider, just so you know.

    Install GPS Toolkit, will give you more info on whats going on.

    Hi
    I am also experiencing the same problem on meteor and know 2 other people all with different android phones.
    It seems strange that all these phones hardware would just stop working
    I have tried the GPS tools but this has not fixed the issue
