I do encounter one occasion while using Google map navigation the phone gps signal can't detect, after switch off and on again the GPS toggle, it back to normal.

Not sure about data coverage dropping from 4g to 3g though, haven't experienced this issue yet so far
*
you're using u mobile too? for me it did happened when the signal dropping.. I don't have a chance to try another telco yet..

i believe this phone is one of those rare Xiaomi without GPS problems, no?
*
for me using this beast and umobile carrier give me a headache with GPS..
don't know why when the coverage turn to 3g suddenly i lost my GPS signal on my waze..
i manage to get new simcard(prepaid just to test/other telco) and it works flawlessly.. no problem at all even though on 3g signal..

To be honest GPS still needs data right.
If the data too weak can easily disconnected.
*
yup.. it needs strong signal data to fully operate..

How to check for warranty? Cant verify the warranty of this phone bought from lazada. Shown as malaysia.set but instead got a global set with 2 pin.

Using imei also failed
*
mine also 2pin plug.. black color.. can we just check at the regulatory information.. got mcmc logo inside there.. 🤔

just check with the "check your label" apps.. both of imei numbers certified by mcmc..

GPS should work even without SIM card. Nothing that telco can do to help your GPS.
*
I know.. but then I've experienced the problem.. when using umobile while 4g signal it's normal but then drop to 3g my GPS signal lost.. I don't have this problem with maxis(hotlink) coverage either 4g or 3g signal..

My old Mi 3 has GPS problem when using data(U Mobile)

But if I'm connected to a hotspot or wifi, instant GPS Lock.

Same happens to my friend's Oneplus 3.

You can try the same...

Airplane mode + Offline maps + magnetometer (aka Compass sensor) = Offline Google Maps navigation!!!



No need to rely data connection...

apparently I need the data to monitor the real time traffic too.. so no use using this method.. thanks for sharing bro.. 👍 👍 👍

Im standing middle of Bukit Bintang, only 3G.

Shit, hopefully it is UMobile problem, not the phone.

I think so.. so hard to get 4g nowadays unless I change it at the settings.. and some more with the gps locking problem... hopefully they will overcome this problem soon..
