Google Map update effect GPS

I was wondering if anyone else experienced EXTREME improvements today after updating Google Maps?? I am to 10-20 meters of accuracy compared to the normal 400 meters. It actually shows me at my house which is WAY WAY in the country!

Most of the time I'm at 10 meters, sometimes it'll get to 5 meters. Maybe it's improved, maybe not.

Mines still off by 5-6 miles. Odd because when i first got it my location was only off by 1/2 mile.

I didn't get to drive but I did get a very fast navigation lock that never happens for me. Also I got a lock inside my house within 10 meters. And the navigation lock was also inside.

Well I tried it with GPS off, here in australia, and my location was only 2 houses off. This is a massive improvement. But that's just based on cell phone towers i guess.., dunno about actual GPS improvement but that would also be nice

Noticed this as well. Was in Orchard Supply earlier and tried out the GPS because my brother was asking about it (he's been thinking about getting captivate). Was able to get a very accurate lock INSIDE the store showing in about 20 seconds where I actually was in the store which was nuts (actually it was pipe fittings aisle ). Tried navigation home from class during the afternoon and it took about 10 seconds to get a lock and never lost me the whole way. My GPS was working fine before but now it's even more accurate/faster.

I second this. I tried with the GPS at home. Locked very quickly, and about 10 meters. Navigation seems working fine too.

Sounds like GMap finally defaults to use A-GPS mode which means faster lock. Accuacy? Not affected.

TRY THIS
Referring to INDOOR accuracy with GPS module off.
I'm noticing that if I have WIFI AND USE WIRELESS NETWORKS ON, the indoor accuracy has improved massively. If I turn WIFI OFF but leave Use Wireless Networks ON, I seem to get standard cell tower location of 500 - 1000 meters.
So, Im assuming this update has enabled Google's version of Skyhook in maps.
Im pretty sure thats what it is since I dont have to be connected to an access point for it to work. Just have WIFI ON.
Nice.
Everyone should disable Skyhook from the LBSmode. I had it disabled since my phone got updated to JH7 but for those how don't...
My settings from factory are:
Skyhook OFF
GPS plus OFF

I to see a improvement. I drive 80 miles one way to work and never lost lock. This has never happened before.

What is GPS plus?

Wi-fi location fix has been in Google Maps for a long time now. It is not new.

Here's my opinion on this. I have nothing to back this up other than what I interpret from behavior I have seen, so it is strictly my opinion/guess.
Ignoring any GPS hardware or software issues there may or may not be, I think that Google Nav has issues from time to time. I don't know if it is because it relies on 3g data to paint maps and determine routes or whatever, but I think it seems to "lag" sometimes. And if it gets a bit off track, it takes too long to recover. Maybe it does it more on a system that struggles with GPS accuracy a bit more, I don't know.
So, my guess would be that an update to Google maps would not contribute anything to a faster GPS lock or more accuracy from GPS, since I guess this happens at the OS level.
However, what we see when navigating, is Google NAV(maps) interpretation of the GPS. So, when it teleports you off the road maybe it's because it isn't smart enough to think, "Hey, a car doesn't just teleport off a road, so I'll wait a couple more seconds to see if it returns before I show it off the road". It already does this to some degree since your accuracy under good conditions can be 10 or 15 meters which could easily put you on a lawn or sidewalk but NAV continues to show you on the road.
So, maybe, Google Maps updates can help make the Nav experience better by being smarter about interpreting GPS data and showing your position within the context of driving a car down the road.

So do your maps show better accuracy or not? Since that is the topic of the thread you might as well refer to the topic. Or are you just trying to show everyone you know better?
One thing is that the feature was there, another is if it worked properly.
Now it works. Before it didn't.

My navigation isn't the best but I am thrilled to have a quick lock in the boonies where I live... GPS worked decent but lagged in little rock our biggest city.... but I haven't been to the city since the update... I'll let everyone know if it can now navigate there. ... I know my location contributes to the issues!!!! But again I was thrilled to be getting locks!

I updated Maps yesterday and the AGPS sometimes says I'm in Georgia now(I live in PA), lol, in the middle of a highway no less. However the GPS is working better. I got my first lock ever as well as the first time my GPS has ever seen more than 3 satellites(saw 6).

All I can say is that I would be VERY surprised if an update to Google Maps helped GPS locking, how many satellites it sees, or accuracy at the GPS layer on the device.
However, I would not be surprised if a Google Maps update helped with navigation use or even placing you on a map, since it Google Maps can modify it's interpretation of the GPS position.
If your GPS was spotty before, then thinking you are seeing more satellites or better accuracy, using something like GPS Status, is just a placebo.
However, this is pure speculation on my part. I suppose it's possible that Google have modified something at the device layer that controls the GPS chip, but I'm thinking not.
My feedback would be to exchange your phone if your GPS is spotty. I did and my new phone has pretty much perfect GPS.

How can you tell the actual accuracy in ft or meters in google maps?

If anything for me GPS lock is take longer than before update.

Nexus S GPS Issues?

I was reading SlashGear's Nexus S Review and found something interesting.
Similarly frustrating can be GPS performance; we haven’t observed the dire positioning problems originally found on the Galaxy S, but at times the Nexus S proved simply incapable of getting a GPS lock: we drove for around 30 minutes of open, clear freeway and the handset continued to show “Searching for GPS.” The issue is intermittent, however, with the phone not liking it if you try to get a fix while moving.

Now they probably have a preproduction unit, but what are the chances of GPS behaving similarly to the GPS in the Galaxy S/Captivate/Vibrant (all have the same standalone GPS chip as the Nexus S -- BCM 4751). Doesn't appear as severe, but somewhat problematic (from the review) nonetheless.
I'm interested to see how the GPS performs while the Nexus S is in user's hands

big suprise, the GPS dosn't get a fix while moving. this is a common issue on tons of phones.
Me and my girlfriend were driving around once and it took my phone almost 40 minutes to get a GPS lock, CM5 on a Nexus One.
Yet later that same day, standing still, it worked in under a minute.
Every phone can have GPS issues for a massive amount of reasons.
The Galaxy S issue was a software issue where it worked under 5% of the time, even if you were standing still ontop of a building.
Other ones sometimes randomly have the issue while moving, this is usually because the phone has issues connecting to the satelite. You gotta remember the GPS chips in these phones are not that great.

my mytouch4g gets a gps lock while driving, a bit longer then standing still but id say still under a few minutes

This is also how my dedicated TomTom and Garmin GPS work. Stand still, lock in less than a minute. On the move, I usually give up after 10-15 minutes and stop for a minute.

Oh ok cool.

This is not correct TomTom devices do get a lock while moving and so does Nexus one and iphone 4. If this review is correct that means that Samsung has no fixed the GPS in Nexus S and that it may be suffering from the same problem as Galaxy S

were not saying that they can't, it's that it CAN take longer. in some places you can be going 60MPH and get a lock within a minute, but in another place you can be walking at 5MPH and it'll take 20 minutes.
Sorry but our phones don't get priority on any gps satellite lol

Yes, TomTom devices get a lock while moving. They get a lock much, much faster standing still, though.
For any GPS to work, it needs to download the complete almanac from at least 3 different satellites. The almanac is sent every 30 seconds, so the GPS must have an uninterrupted view of each satellite for at least 30 seconds, possibly up to 60 seconds.
A-GPS can get the almanac data faster, and TomTom has something called QuickGPSfix that pre-downloads almanac data a week in advance.
But what if you don't have A-GPS or QuickGPSfix, and the GPS hasn't been used in a week, so all the almanac data is outdated?
If you are moving so much around that the GPS antenna never sees any satellites uninterrupted for the necessary 30-60 seconds, then the GPS will never get a lock. Never.

There is no priority because there is no "connection". GPS receivers (sic!) don't send anything.

Actually, with A-GPS the phones have an advantage to get first lock quicker. But the pure GPS devices have better antennas, so should give more accurate navigation.

I wander if they ever restarted the navigation app, because you know, sometimes restarting the app works. From my experience anyways.

Are you sure that was actually GPS, and not location by cell tower or WiFi hotspot? A smartphone without GPS lock will try to find your location by other means.
All A-GPS does is to jumpstart the GPS, and when GPS has a lock, then the error should be way below 100 meters.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A-GPS

my GPS is working fine right now,but it does act up randomly with no reason :/

GPS work flawless
Rounding out this section is a note that the Nexus S suffers from none of the GPS issues that plague the Galaxy S. I tested thoroughly - fixes are fast and accurate over GPS and work like they should using Google location services with WiFi trilateration.

yeah once i get an actual GPS lock it's perfect, but until then it's been terrible. Cell tower only has been really bad as well.
This, for me, was on CM6, haven't tested it on CM6.1. ANd for my dad on a stock vibrant, so i'm just gonna chock it up to the crappy gps in it (happened before fix)

It's apparently plagued by the same GPS bug as other Galaxy S phones; it took forever to get a GPS lock

Help test a quirk with the GPS chip. SIMPLE

There is this great Android app that displays the output from the device's GPSr chip, as well as the data from other sensors in the phone (compass, level, accelerometer, etc). I have used it on all of my android phones. When I used it on the skyrocket, I noticed something different.
Normally the app displays a compass wheel and plots the visible GPS satellites on it, indicating how strong the signal is from each, which are being used to plot your location and where they are in the sky. The US GPS constellation has 32 active satellites and a handful of inactive spares. They are numbered, simply enough, 1-32. However, since I started using the app on this phone I have additional satellites plotted on my display, numbered greater than 60. I contacted the app's developer and he was as surprised as I was.
My handset is a non-retail version of the phone. I can't get into too many details of what that means on a public forum, but suffice it to say, mine might be a bit different than yours. Until now I was under the impression that my device was identical to the retail version in every respect except for the "NOT FOR SALE" stenciled into the case and the lack of logo on the battery cover. Now I am not so sure.
So here is the help I need: download the app (it is free), go outside and fire it up. Within seconds it should start plotting satellites on the compass as little numbered dots. Do you see any with a number outside the range 1-32? There seems to pretty consistently be about 8 of them in the sky where I am, so if you can detect them at all you should see some of them.
Please let us know if you can see them or not. Here is a link to the app on the market: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.eclipsim.gpsstatus2 If you can see them, we may have additional questions for you. Please post even if you cannot see any. If no-one can, that means it has to do with mine being non-retail. If some of you can and some can't, then we may have identified a variant of the Skyrocket. Or maybe the satellites are regional. This is all very confusing and exciting, please help!

Attached is a screenshot of the app detecting satellites numbered greater than 32.

Here is a screennshot of me using the app never shows more then 9 satalites for me

Thanks!
Your screenie is in line with what's expected, showing only US GPS satellites. Hmm, curiouser and curiouser.

I'm getting 9/20 sattelites. The ones on the screen above 32 are white and numbered: 82, 78, 88, 80, 65, 72, 79, 81. Interesting, every satelite in green is below 32, every satelite in white is above 32. Oops, I take that back. There's a white 28
If you tell me how to do the screenshot, I'll post it here.

There are a number of apps on the market that run in the background and take screenshots by shaking the phone, like this one: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.geeksoft.screenshot
So you see the mystery satellites, too! Cool! We don't know exactly what they are, but they might be GLONASS satellites - the Russian military GPS that opened to civilian use after the Iron Curtain fell. Or something else entirely!

If you press and hold home and power buttons then release it takes screenshots you do not need an app its a feature of samsung galaxy phones

Hi all,
I'm the author of GPS Status and I'm 99.99% sure that those dots are GLONASS satellites.
First about the coloring:
- gray: satellite without ephemeris or almanach data.
- blue: satellite with almanach, without ephemeris
- yellow: satellitw with almanach and ephemeris data, but not used in the GPS fix
I was more or less expecting that someone will spot this sooner or later. GPS Status was written to display all returned sat data. It is just that this phone receives also GLONASS data. There are several announced/shipping phones that officially provide GLONASS support. Galaxy Note and the latest Sony-Ericcson xperia phones. BTW iPhone4s also supports GLONASS.
We can expect most new phones will support this because Russia has implemented a 25% import tax on all phones that do not support GLONASS (from the beginning of next year). Manufacturers will obviously support this to avoid the tax. So we can expect new phones arriving with GLONASS support or even older phones to have firmware updates to enable it (if the hardware supports). Long story short, I'm happy to see this happening as this will give a much better service IF the phone can work in mixed mode.
In this particular case I guess the phone is using only the GPS stats and can be switched between GPS/GLONASS, but cannot use both of them at the same time.
Great find

Cool!
We have already found one person who is apparently without GLONASS support. There are probably others (by all means, post). I guess this is a point of variation. Smartphones all seem to have them: two "identical" phones, but this one has sound card A and that one has soundcard B, etc. It happens because of the way consumer electronics are manufactured. Some of us got a GPS/GLONASS receiver and some of us got a GPS-only receiver, for no other reason than the availability of the various components at the time the production batch our phone was in got fabricated.

Yeah it appears that is the case. I just pickd up my skyrocket traded my sgs2 for it to a guy who lives in Louisiana

Wow I had no idea that cell were incorporating GLONASS recievers too. Guess your going to have change your app name to GNSS Status now

Here's mine. Skyrocket purchased from an AT&T Store in Honolulu a couple of weeks ago.

GLONASS IS HERE!!!
I wonder how hard it would be to enable simultaneous GLONASS/GPS support

I have both models (production and pre-production) and yes they both show the same list of birds.

This is mine!
It is from Galaxy Note!
It seems that the GLONASS Sats are used with both GPS Sats!

The reason the skyrocket can pick up GLONASS satellites is because Qualcomm released a statement yesterday saying that the S3 has a built in chip for GLONASS, and the carriers should be activating it soon, since its more reliable then the current GPS system. Honestly, Im surprised the skyrocket can pick them up without a software update, unless it shipped with support.

Cool beans! My skyrocket (also purchased from ATT in socal) is showing the GLONASS satellites in grey as well. I wonder if we will get the update that will allow it to work in mixed mode like the Note apparently does.

Mine shows the birds in grey too!

Yep, mine picks up GLONASS satellites.
I wonder if the 2.3.6 update (once it gets re-pushed) will be able to connect to those satellites... would be amazing honestly.

Samsung GPS comparing

Started this thread to inform users of (samsung) smartphones about GPS.
I owned or own: Note 3, Ace 3 LTE, Young duos, Core prime LTE (G361F), S advance.
What I have learned is that most phones with only GPS satilites of A-GPS are not always usable in some conditions.
In cloudy conditions, some people argue that this is not true, it's almost impossible to get good quality GPS signals.
And if you get any it's usually low quality. This low quality GPS receiving is causing problems for phones like Samsung S advance.
It's a fact that cloudy days will cause problems with GPS. With my Samsung S advance with cloudyweather, driving car, I sometimes do not get a GPS position fix in 10 minutes! After 10 minutes I gave up. With nice weather the GPS is finding my position quiet fast.
How do I know? Just take any GPS test program from Google play and find out. It will show how many satellites and how strong the signal is, and if 2D or 3D GPS positioning has been calculated. I placed both phones, Samsung S Advance and Samsung Core prime G361F next to eachother and started the "GPS test APP" from Google app store.
I remember my older phone, the Samsung galaxy ace 3, which worked pretty well with GPS. It has both A-GPS, Glonass. So I was looking around for a smart phone with ok specifications but good GPS. Looking at the specifications of the Samsung core prime LTE (G361F)
I thought it should be at least as good as my trusty ACE 3. And I was surprised that it is even better!
GPS satellites found in about 5~10 seconds. That is not the most important. Because it has A-GPS,Glonass and in Asia it will gain new satellites from Beidou. Because of this there are more satellites to contact to and the chance you get a good 3+ point satellite signal is
higher. So far I am very impressed with this.
General tip for buying any brand smart phone for people who need good GPS functionality: make sure the phone has at least support for A-GPS and Glonass. Buying an off-line route app might be a good idea as well.
For me those GPS fix programs do not work at all (Samsung S advance) Correct me if I am wrong in my post. :good:

Bad GPS signal with Zenfone 7

Hi I have serious problem to use zenfone 7 in navigation mode with maps and Waze. It has a very bad signal GPS and it loose connection a lot of time.
I'm on android 11 last update now. I didn't try GPS with the old android version. Have anyone faced this kind of issue?
Thanks.

Same problem here

Same problem since the last update... Has anyone found a solution?

I received the new update that is being released in these days and the gps problem seems to be solved, even though I still have to try it accurately. Has anyone tried and can confirm the problem has been solved?

I have the Zenfone 7 Pro and my GPS signal is excellent, crazy good. Check your GPS signal in GPS Signal apps, such as "GPS Status" in Play Store, see what that shows.

Any place that acts as a faraday cage will effect signal.
You will have signal loss near fortified buildings or sky scrapers. Most of the modern ones have signal boosters now. Also if you go into tunnels you'll lose signal.

I check my update for Zenfone almost weekly. I don't run many apps, really try to stay basic as possible. I have tried resetting my phone and rebooting multiple times. And, I still have issues where I will lose GPS signal... Like all signal. I have the "GPS Status" app and I can see how many satellites are connecting. But when I lose GPS signal, I mean all, not like only 2 satellite is showing. My friend standing next to me using a Samsung and my wife using Pixel 3 are both getting GPS and I am down. So did I get a lemon, or are all Zenfone 7 GPS radio sucks?

If so can you try switching your sim card and checking?
The phone I have outperforms everyone else phone in the room.
According to GSM arena Asus has more gps providers.

On my zenfone 7 i have been having issues with GPS randomly going out with plenty of satellites in view...however it also seems to be affecting my galaxy a71 5g as well as GPS receiver in my vehicle. So must be the GPS system i think? I submitted a GPS outage report to the USCG after googling how to report GPS errors...have not heard back yet but just reported last night (Sat the 25th/Sun the 26th of Sept)

#3 and 4 lol... Will see if that makes it better.
