Me Too...

So are you guys still having problems with this?

It's gotten to the point where I don't want to use Waze anymore - and I LOVE Waze. It seems like it should just be some sort of software tweak to fix this problem...

I hope it at least gets fixed before Waze comes to Android Auto.

Lame was hoping this got better and was looking forward to a working gps on Pixel.

Ive had this issue eventually pop up on every device. Currently on LG v10.. Upsetting :/
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] rascalz1504:
Try deleting the app data and cache. Then uninstall and reinstall the app. So far its worked for me. Need to test it a few more days before I can confirm its a permanent fix.

I saw this post so I turned on Google Maps & used it to navigate home from work, about 15 miles. Not a big test, but it worked fine, followed be closely, always had me exactly where I was on the road down to the lane I was in.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] CraigP17:
I have had zero issues with Maps. I do not use Waze. (on ATT)
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Gblefty88:
I have had the GPS issue first on the Pixel (was not following my location accurately and would not give me turn by turn directions) spoke with Google support, all their solutions failed including the factory reset so returned the Pixel and upgrades to the XL model have had it for 3 days and started having same issue again today!!! This issue is on maps and I have only downloaded normal certified apps I was very excited about the 1st Google phone as I love their products but this is very discouraging as the exact same problem has now happened with BOTH phone models. I have Verizon service but based on all of these comments am starting to believe it is a hardware issue and not the service provider. Hoping they can get this bug fixed and quickly otherwise I will be returning for a different device.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] p1r473:
My Pixel XL was fine for the first few days. Then I put it in a case and rooted it, and ever since then the GPS is acting wonky in Waze, losing its fix, not getting satellites, acting nuts.

Trying to determine the issue...
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] DaveHTC200:
I find it awful on maps!! I've had it showing me going backwards and the rotation is off!

Tried with waze and it was OK though so I've no idea
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] p1r473:
Waze and Google Maps both keep losing GPS signal.

Waze starts to go absolutely haywire.

Google Maps just says "seeking GPS signal" every 30 seconds

Ive done a full factory reset and it's still happening.

Maybe something wrong with the GPS chip, or on the underlying OS??

Just spent 2 hours troubleshooting with a Google tech. They will be calling me back son (they just told me to test it after a full factory reset). No luck!
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] sx10:
I'm also having this issue with the pixel xl. Seems much worse in Waze but happens in Google maps a little as well.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] rancor22:
Well my GPS died some time this weekend. I was loosing GPS lock on google maps. GPS test is no longer shows it lock onto any satellites when my nexus 6 sees 7-9. Replacement is on the way. I would recommend anyone having this problem check with a gps test/info app and make sure the hardware is working correctly.

I replicated the problem on NDE63V, the OS the device shipped on and was working on before, along with NMF26O and NMF26Q.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Jsunn:
Waze is unusable now. I am seeing the same behavior. Google Maps is ok, but waze jumps all over the place.

It is pure speculation, but I wonder if it is tied to how the OS is using the accelerometers. I think google Maps uses both the GPS position and accelerometers.

1/2/2017 - Google Confirming Software Issue with GPS

I'm having the same problem.

Last week my GPS on my Google Pixel stopped working. When I open google maps, it shows the blue dot correctly with the compass working properly. However, when I start navigation or driving mode, it does not work. I also tried Waze and that also does not work - just holds on Searching for GPS. I also tried the app 'GPS Test' and it shows 'No Fix' on the GPS Status.

I contacted google pixel support this morning and they confirmed Google is aware of the problem and have identified it as a software issue.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] chuda.pati09:
That's wonderful! Did they give you any information on how you others can refer to the issue, such as a bug number or anything?

I'm also having the same issue with my Pixel when using Waze, and since stopped using it, due to it being redirected consistently. Switching to Maps Navigation the issue doesn't seem to exists, however, if I just use Maps, I can see that the compass is not oriented in the correct direction, and have to do the figure 8 calibration consistently so that it can be oriented correctly. The blue indicator dot is also not correctly located on the map, and can be off by many feet/meter. This is the only way I have been able recreate the issue I'm seeing with Waze but on Maps this time, it seems that Maps Navigation is more forgiving on the GPS irregularities than Waze, which is why Maps Navigation is a much better experience than Waze on the Pixel or Pixel XL.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] esuuuu09:
Haven't experienced anything drastic with the gps lock, but I do notice that the direction of where i'm facing is constantly off. Tried calibrating the compass to no avail. The direction feature would also throw off driving directions as it doesn't know which way you are headed when stopped.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] frankwhite8536:
I turned off everything but the GPS and when I go into maps and hit the location button it just flashes quick once and nothing happens.

I wasn't getting any kind of signal using navigation. Im pretty sure it was only catching random Wifi spots as I was driving because it would sometimes in the area but meters off.

Temporary Workaround

Guys, wife and I experienced these exact issues on our Pixel and Pixel XL whilst holidaying in Malaysia. Setting preferred network to 2G appears to stop the constant GPS disconnections. Give that a go.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] dinkoh:
I have a slightly different GPS issue. All apps (Google Maps, Uber, and Lyft) have me located half a mile away. If I start navigation, Google Maps will start at that location, but will slowly correct to itself to the proper location.

Not too annoying with google Maps, but very problematic with Uber and Lyft where they require correct location.

Pretty sure hardware issue..

Had this same issue on my last HTC device now the Pixel XL is getting worse everyday. Don't even want to call support and bang my head against the wall. Sucks.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] gerrysnaps:
Curiously, I think the opposite. Just today I had a chance to compare with a Nexus 5X, running latest Nougat OTA. It was also facing the same GPS inaccuracies as the Pixel. Has to be something wrong with how Android or Google GPS libraries are handling AGPS. Hopefully this is only going to need a Play Services update?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] maflin18:
Setting preferred network to global seemed to magically do the trick for me.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] CaptainRewind:
Same here in Pixel

Long-time member, first time poster about a non-rooted device. I have a Pixel (not XL). I cannot root it because I use it for work, and my employer enforces an Android Device Policy.

I have the exact issue as the OP. Everything works fine - compass and GPS - until I turn on navigation. It never updates my location and sometimes jumps around, but stays roughly in the same place as it was when I enabled navigation. It is effectively useless.

I have removed Waze, and cleared cache/data on Google Maps (rebooting afterwards). Any other suggestions? If factory reset isn't helping folks, I don't want to go down that road (pun intended).

EDIT: I don't have a Global option, which might be due to my provider (Google Fi). In my Cellular Networks settings, I have only "Data Roaming" and "Enhanced 4G LTE Mode". I did enable roaming (other setting is always enabled) and tested, didn't help.

Thanks.

I hate to ask the obvious but are you sure that you not only have Location on but also have the mode set to device only or high accuracy?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] frankwhite8536:
I saw a post that the GPS might be held up by another app or a conflict of two trying to access the GPS. I had reset my phone but I also restored all of my apps during the setup process.

I used a permissions app to see how many of my apps have location granted. There's like 60 of them and some I couldn't even uninstall without root.

So who wants to try eliminating apps until we find the culprit? If that's even the issue...
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] CaptainRewind:
Yes.

---------- Post added at 07:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:02 AM ----------

I have uninstalled many apps with location permission: Lyft, Uber, Android Pay, Google Earth, OpenTable.

Also, I went in to app settings and denied location permissions to every app installed except Google Maps and Google Play Services. The issue persists. :(
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] aspexil:
Are you plugged in when using Waze? I'm normally plugged in. You may have to disable battery optimization for those apps?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Gingergirl:
Have you ended up replacing the device or were you able to get it working? Currently in the same situation and ready to send through Manu warranty. Just want to see if any luck first
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] frankwhite8536:
I haven't turned mine in. A few folks either here or on the official product forum for the Pixel have with no luck. One person said the new one worked for awhile but then stopped again.

When I get time I'd like to try flashing either O or another ROM altogether to see if it still exists. Would at least confirm its software based if it did start working again.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Gootah:
It's a calibration issue. I followed THIS guide and I was good for the 5mins I tested. I have since rebooted and all that, GPS back to CRAP. Try it our a report back guys.

GPS Issues resolved

I have been hunting sites like this for months trying to figure out how to get my pixel XL to show accurate location. The weather was really nice for a couple weeks and I rode the motorcycle every day. Funny thing the GPS was rock solid on the bike.

After a little testing and what not I figured out that my truck is a really good GPS blocker. So I bought a GPS repeater and all of the sudden the GPS is flawless in my truck with like 2 seconds to initial fix. Check out the screen capture video.

Hello,

I would like to open a topic about fastboot. I now have a headunit with fastboot and it boots within 5 seconds. there are even more such devices such as this?

http://www.ebay.de/itm/Android-6-0-...ake:VW&hash=item489399cf06:g:dXIAAOSw4shX~IDm
[Android Head-Units] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
Umm. I think you are in for some surprises.

I believe this unit has come up in conversation in another thread. Pretty sure that isn't Android 6.0. If you scroll down a bit it says something about API 19. That's KitKat. This is nothing more than a 4.4. ROM that's been skinned.

and FastBoot likely means they are not fulling shutting the device off when ignition removed. Most units now have configurable time delays to avoid a full boot.

I own my Moto G Turbo Edition(XT1557). I bought this device two months back. But motorola had seriously disappointed me by announcing that they excluded this device from Nougat update. So I have planned to install CyanogenMod 14(Android 7.1) on my device. But it does not include VoLte support. My question is.. Will any custom rom supports VoLte? If not. can anyone tell me the clear reason. Or do I have any other way to update to nougat with VoLTE support? Please reply. Thank you :)

[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HelpMeruth:
[MENTION=4746211]WaxysDargle[/MENTION] does have a good point. to many people are asking every f*cking day for volte without doing any research

people who actually do some research know that volte doesnt work and are getting tired of constantly telling this to everyone.

the worst part is that all the people (that dont look at our lovely forum for like 1 minute to find a simple answer) FULLY ignore us,

We should get a mod pinning a thread explaining this..... or place a warning on every damn inch of this website

[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gravemind2015:
It's not always possible to retain every feature in custom rom world, they need to learn that.

As for why, this is a difficult question. Maybe the carrier JIO works somehow differently than rest of the carriers using VoLTE all over the world (there were a few as far as I know). To understand this, you need to understand how the phone radio works.

Okay, so, a radio chip (with an antennae) can send and recieve radio waves and the information contained in them. Now that can be inefficient if every company is allowed to implement it in it's own way, it can also cause interference and fragmentation. Hence there are restrictions over the usage of radio. As computers work according to what they are programmed to, anyone who can peek into the code can manipulate the radio e.g unlocking bands or using nonstandard frequencies. A whole lot possibilities are there.

In android, the radio is controlled by something called RIL (Radio Interface Layer). This is already nicely documented here - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_Interface_Layer.

https://afewe.wordpress.com/android...ith-the-radio-layer-interface-ril-in-android/

Now RIL code can't be directly released to the public due to the aforementioned reasons. So pre-compiled blobs (somewhat like portable windows executable .exe files) are given instead that can be used directly when cooking a rom. But it's very hard (and perhaps illegal) to decompile and reverse engineer it.

We don't know if JIO has standard implementation for VoLTE. There is much rumor surrounding this and the carrier itself. We can't experiment it much either. That makes it hard to answer this question.

Edit : This is all I know so far, any corrections are welcome.

The splash screen is made for the N6 or any other Motorola device only. It is made by extracting the logo.bin from the N6 bootloader. You can however use the boot animation.

Op at least understand a little bit about the the stuff you share. If you read [MENTION=5448769]makers_mark[/MENTION] Op (the thread you obtained this from) you would then know that the splash screen isn't compatible with other devices outside of Motorola.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prasu123:
A couple of days ago, I got an error on my phone (Motorola XT1033) saying that it cannot load the home screen. So, I restarted it in order to resolve the issue. However, it didn't reboot and since then it has been stuck in the Motorola logo.

I tried to do recovery or factory reset, but all the options lead to the same Motorola logo with no luck.

The only option that is working is AP Fastboot. I managed to unlock the bootloader by getting an unlock code from Motorola's website and using the mfastboot command. So I assume that the fastboot command is working since it detects the devices; however, I couldn't make ADB command to work since it give the error: 'device not found'.

Anyway, the second step is to flash the phone. According to this question, I should be able to do that. However, when I am running the command fastboot flash partition gpt.bin, I am getting the following result:

Here is some of my phone info

Galaxy Note 4 SM-N910P

Current version: 5.1.1

Software Version: N910PVPU4COJ6

So as I said in my title I used to have my phone to 6.0.1 that is where I first rooted it and backed up my files. I had been messing around with different versions, even though I know it doesn't really downgrade your phone, I had flashed to 5.1.1 everything was fine the first day i had my phone flashed but then my wifi went to not remembering the password then the next day it isn't connecting at all (stuck in an obtaining ip address loop)

So i was wondering if its possible to use my backup files from 6.0.1 on this version I have now and will it flash my phone back to how it was?
