Hi All,
So I have an issue with my S5's GPS... I now suspect it is due to the antenna however would like some feedback and assistance.
I downloaded the "GPS Status" app to try and trobuleshoot a bit. When I open the app with my location on and set to any of the 3 accuracies (GPS only, Power Saving, High Accuracy) and very quickly it manages to find satellites, at the moment 26 of them.
However it is unable to connect / fix to any of them, so it is displaying 0/26.
So since it is finding the satellites but unable to fix/ connect to them I am hoping that my GPS chip is still fine but the antenna is the issue - what do you think?
If you think it is the antenna, how can I go about fixing it? Is there somewhere I can open up the phone and resit a ribbon or connector or anything of that sort? If so please can you assist me with how to go about doing this.
Thanks!
