Project Fi

Post by wmsawyer
Been using Waze for some time now on Verizon Wireless with no real problems. Just switched to Project Fi and now the Waze app is having problems figuring out exactly where I am on the map. It was a couple hundred to maybe 1000 feet wrong in Philadelphia. Caused the app to keep recalculating as it thought I took a wrong turn. Funny thing though, as soon as I crossed bridge into New Jersey it began working fine again.

Anyone else on Fi and see something like this, know if there is any fix?

thanks,
bill

Check your GPS receiver. From Play store install GPS Test or GPS Toolbox.

Put device in airplane mode and reboot. Go outside and see how long it takes to acquire 3D fix.
