I'm currently sitting with my phone next to me and right now if I go to google and see where it is, somehow it is in Dorchester Road, Ipswich.
The main problem there is I'm sitting in Scotland.
Anyone have any ideas on why this is happening.

Managed to fix it, connected to wi-fi in the house and it put my location back to normal. Its not brilliant when your on tinder and people are showing up 300 odd miles away.

I could understand if it I had been there, but I havnt.

Maybe that's where your connection is coming from. Mines always in London.

Its happening again. Its starting to annoy me a little since I use it for the weather as well. Resulted in downloading "GPS Status" and when it shows me in Ipswich I just open the app and *boof* shows me back in my location.

I'm thinking it may be a problem with google location itself. If it continues over the next few days a little trip into carriers shop might suffice.

Old Thread Alert!

The last post was made 10 years, 200 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful?
