    Google Maps

    My phone is not able to detect My current Location and if I specify the particular address for both starting point and destination it is not navigating and stays on the screen searching for GPS..until yesterday it was working very fine.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thanks

    Your GPS is turned on right?

    I assume you've rebooted your phone.

    I've had this happen sporadically...but not often enough for me to really pinpoint many other troubleshooting options.

    I'm experiencing the same issue and I'm in S.Florida. This is the first time I've experienced an outage this long. Up to yesterday it was fine as well.

    No, it didn't matter today at all and I was out for most of the day. It usually connects in seconds or takes a minute or two for the most.

    I believe they're having some network related issues that's causing a disruption in the assisted location fix for the Sats. Hopefully by tomorrow it will be operational again. Glad I'm not the only one.

    I wish these phones were strictly Sat-based and not dependent on an assist. I know that's going to be the norm soon.

    not to sound rude but this IS a beta test app right now, I go through several betas related to video games and there are always days when they take the system down to tweak or enhance. It sucks being a guinnea pig sometimes, but it is free and works pretty damn good for free and has some outragous features, I love the one where in sat layer you can see the area in a pic of where your supposed to turn, or a pic of your destination!
