Check out ckystore from lelong. He has a lot of case. He has mocolo tg for the phone, but as i didn't buy that from him, i don't know if it will stick well.

Yes ! It's definitely umobile problem.

I use Waze daily for grab car. GPS will lost anytime as described.

My method is to on or off data , play around with GPS for device only or high accuracy to get my location fixed.
*
so you also use redmi note 4 for the navigation?

snapdragon / mediatek? how about the OS? miui8 or 9?

replaced my faulty umobile sim card today and I had this problem same wit urs. My Pokemon Go also couldn't lock my position correctly  vmad.gif  previously my old sim card doesn't have this problem mygawddd
*
it is annoying as hell...

you may try turn on / off flight mode...

or actually just turn on/off data will do the trick.

whenever it happened to me, i will just turn on/off data... or flight mode.. or just simply on/off gps. if i'm lucky.. after 3 on offs... (approximately 10 mins) it will connect back the GPS with data On..

so far i haven't heard from any other phone with this issue. only redmi note 4 with U mobile.

that is why it is very annoying that who's fault is it? u mobile? or the phone?

turning it on and off of GPS and data doesn't do the trick (for my case). Waze still couldn't find GPS, and my Pokemon Go doesn't lock my position properly. This arises when I change to a new sim card. My old sim card worked perfectly fine  cry.gif  I suppose it's UMobile fault urgh. GPS works greatly when I connect to wifi...

Waiting for a solution  doh.gif
*
I did call u mobile and ask them regarding the issue.

the solution given is
1. set the phone to 3g
2. choose the network mode not automatic, and select 'u mobile 3g'

they say 4g is not stable.
which could be u mobile's problem... but the thing is. why other phones using u mobile do not face this issue?

Just sharing

Previously i had the same problem on my ancient Mi3 with celcom network.
bare in mind that the highest data speed on mi3 is H+/3G.
When i'm on H+/3G the gps went haywire. vmad.gif
But when I'm on 2G, the gps work flawlessly. hmm.gif

Currently I`m using Reno4 with Celcom. GPS is working well on 4G, but using older version of MIUI 8.5.4.0. Not yet update to the latest version as GPS is very important for me. Might try the developer rom when free.
*
hmm.. thing is that if i use 2G .. the internet speed is to slow.. especially nowadays most apps are actually requires high data speed.

Yes, other U Mobile user on other phones has no issue even tested on Redmi 3 Pro on miui 8.x. For some reason, the miui 9 on Redmi Note 4 has this erratic behaviour. Only miui team knows why perhaps...

P.S. Tested on Huawei Honor 6X but not all others , as far as I know, Asus some models also having similar GPS erratic behaviour
*
hmm.. this is actually very random.. i heard of a friend using redmi note 3 had GPS issue that she never could even use the GPS at all.

besides, i'm having issue when using 8.5.8.0 .. and now updated to miui9 .. the same problem persist..

this document thing is being disabled automatically on my redmi note 4x. With it disabled, my memory card became useless because cannot write any data onto it. can anyone help?
*
you've gotta enable it every single time you restart your phone.

it is annoying.

i thought it's a problem with my phone only. haish, stupid developer. why make card slot when you disable write to card by default.
*
used to be able to write directly into the SD card every single time.

now a lot of function was disabled.

last time i could save excel files directly into my SD card.. after miui8, it is not possible anymore the data has to be saved in the phone's memory only.

For the 1st time ever I face the GPS problem u all mentioned , but it is not due to any of the causes stated. Mine is due to the metal bumper case I used, which blocked the GPS signal caused me to have no GPS signal at all
*
i used plastic case, and even went case less.. the problem still happened.

Lucky that I have a note 4 without gps problem. My note 4 has decent gps reception, able to lock within seconds , just that day using metal bumper causes no gps signal at all. Btw I use am using hotlink
*
aiks... hotlink also has this issue.. then ... it could be phone issue dy.. not telco issue.

my phone also able to lock instantly sometimes.. but .. lately i have been using it on daily basis. that's why i face the issue once a while. and sometimes it just disconnected halfway while using waze.

do you use GPS on daily basis? i'm using like around 3 hours a day or sometimes more. driving around klang valley for work purposes.

last time when i have to go somewhere once a while using GPS with my redmi note 4 also no issue. lock instantly, and no showing any prb. only lately using it for hours daily basis i notice this issue.

Not really on daily basis. Maybe 2 or 3 times per week. But usually many times on weekend.
By the way I only use google maps since it's good enough for me, haven't try waze etc.
*
well.. the GPS lock issue took very long time to lock.. but sometimes, just as you said.. it locks within seconds.

google maps or waze it will be the same, GPS test or GPS status apps will be the same too..

the issue is that the phone is not able to lock to the GPS, when it locks, waze or google maps all able to work.

many ppl suggest use GPS apps to lock, which from my experiment, and experience, they're all the same. these gps tools basically just reads the info of your phone trying to capture the satellite.
