Dear friend, I've done the accuracy, but not resolved. Also in support of Sony asked me to reconfigure and also not solved. My device has only two weeks of use. My GPS is jumping from one place to another. I can not get there even a destination.

Do you experience the same on >>> safe mode ?

Could you take screenshots of the issue ?

just to make this clear, under location, you have set it as high accuracy?

I've tried various solutions.
The next time I am driving will capture screens to send to you. OK?

Thank you

The C5 it's a very nice device but the GPS lock speed is horrible, it takes few minutes to lock satellites, while attempting to lock the location may jump from place to place errately. This is a typical defect of MTK Chipsets.

Dear friend,
I tried to print the screen, but it was not a good experiancia alone driving.
I'll take the machine to the technical assistance and see if Sony return this unit.
But you know what happens with the GPS is as follows;
The arrow is "hopping" place is next to the navigation path, is caught without movement, or does it go to a meaningless way none with the planned path, and reach the destination without having arrived.
But thank you for your cometary and help.

Best regards

I also have a problem with gps. My problem is the location icon keeps showing on the nenu bar when location mode is high accuracy ( WiFi mobile network, gps) or GPS only and drains on the battery even when I am not using it. It's fine when I use the mobile networks and WiFi mode

Can anyone help please.

Dear friend,
this is what I have thought about, hardware problem and in developing the device.
Thank you for your cometary.
