Hi
I've just moved from a HTC Desire to a Galaxy S3. Bought new sim free and upgraded to 4.1.1 via kies.
Currently the my location seems to be all over the place.
In the browser ( stock or chrome ) it can't find my location.
In maps it gets me pretty accurately.
If I search or ask 'Whats the weather like' it finds the nearest city about 20 miles away.
Facebook app starts of thinking I'm in the USA, but as I type in a place it sort of finds me.
I've tried this via Wifi and 3G.
From my laptop on wifi my location is found very accurately.
My son has the same phone, in the same house, on the same wifi, his works.
We've checked the settings and I can't see anything obvious.
Only difference is he is using a different carrier.
Any ideas ?? I've reset the phone and started again.. but that hasn't helped !
