Having changed my HTC Desire for the galaxy s3 at the end of my contract last August, I am disappointed with the sat nav on the phone. The HTC gave instant location and never let me down on a journey.
I am having difficulty with the Samsung, however.
1 I switch on the 3g mobile
2. I go into apps and click the blue arrow saying navigation under it.
3. It then says 'Enable location'. I click 'ok'
4. It then say's location access for your phone is off. I click 'location access'.
5. It gives me three boxes-
a. use wireless networks
b. use GPS satellites
c. location and google search
I tick all three.
6. It then says 'location consent' and I tick 'agree'.
7. I then go back to the home screen and click the blue arrow again and it says 'waiting for location'. Often I get no further than this. Sometimes it finds the location and all works well.
Is there anything I can do to make the sat nav any more reliable? It is really important to me.
Thanks
Bertie
