I have been using the phone for a week then a few days ago the gps stopped working. Google maps shows me about a mile from my location. Reset to factory setting that worked for a day then right back to problems. Could use some ideas   thanks

Could be a dumb question but... Is "Location Services" enabled on your phone?

You're under manufacturer warranty though, if you just got it, as long as there is no physical damage Smiley Happy

Thanks for letting us know your previous troubleshooting steps Teddy. Did uninstalling any GPS apps help? Please boot your phone into safe mode and test Maps again http://vz.to/13IPqQF. This will disable all third party apps.

Found an app when deleted the problem was fixed. Seemed to be a third party app..
