Hi all

I used to use a redmi note 4

I changed it because Gps was quite unreliable

I used a honor 7x for 9 months the gps was spot on

But after the pocophone came out I decided to give xiaomi a try again

And holy crap is the GPS issue is still as annoying as ever
I mean come on it's 2 years how can it not be fixed!?

Either In Waze or maps it's still the same

Searching for GPS sign never goes away.

Is this common issue ?

I tried a few solutions from Google and they just don't do anything

nah, my MIUI 10 , Mi 8 PRO works like charm

my mi max 2 used for 9 months no problem

my Redmi 3S bought in 2016 works fine until now

No way

I can't be that unlucky to use two problematic xiaomi

I don't now what to say. Previously my Redmi Note 2 was bad. Depends on luck... but I can confirm Huawei phones do have very good antenna.

lucky u

A2 easy no signal

i got a mi6 ...instant regret, gps sucks max.cannot lock in position at all...sell it at loss and never touch mi phone after that

pocophone user here with custom rom, so far no issue

the GPS is not that good

I'm sorry for you bro. I totally understand your frustration and had the same experience before with 3 HTC phones. After that change to Samseng then change to Xiaomi all no problem.

You is a UMobile user ?

MIUI 10.1 Pocophone F1 is working fine.

you might want to look into your internet connection/line

Which chipset? The phones with MT is not so reliable compared to SD.

Are you using UMobile?

Yeap I'm using Umobile is that the cause ?

WiLeKiyO

i would say Yes

It could be.

I'm ex-U Mobile user, all my phones had crappy GPS signal until I switch to Celcom.

Now my GPS usually instead lock.
