GPS location & direction in Google Maps

When using Google Maps, I'll press the circle to center in on my location, and the arrow is supposed to show the direction I'm facing. About half the time, it shows me facing about 30 to 90* in the wrong direction. The arrow will move left or right as I do, but still faces the wrong direction. There have been occasions when it will show the dot and arrow moving and facing backwards while I'm driving. This hasn't affected Navigation, as it still accurately shows my location. Has anyone else noticed this, or have a solution?

What I've tried so far: Sensor Calibration under the *#0*# menu.

Also, I had this issue on my Note 4 as well.

OFFLINE Maps Directory on Lumia?

I know there is a way to save maps to sdcard using WPTweaker but I was wondering if I could copy the already downloaded maps stored in my phone directory to my PC. If so, could someone kindly tell me the filepath when connected to PC? Thanks in advance :fingers-crossed:. I'm using 640 XL, full unlocked and interop accessed.

Get Google maps to use Google Now instead of Voice Dialer?

Since Maps 9.2, Google maps integrated voice commands into navigation. So you can ask "are we there yet" or make a call. When I press the mic button during navigation, voice gallery pops up. Anyone know what's wrong?

GPS/NAV/Google Maps Freeze

Hey gang,
So I've been rooted for... well however long its been available on our wonderful LG G4 VZ. I have successfully installed exposed along with all the standard tweaks per my liking. Here's my issue. I came across an app called Pimp my Rom, and believe it is the source of the issue. There is a GPS tweak similiar to the GPS.conf tweak you'd manually use or one of the root apps for GPS on the play store. Well ever since I have found that upon launching Maps, the app freezes within seconds. No matter what I do, reset device, reset device settings wiped app reinstalled app. Even waze won't work. Without a custom recovery I can't just reflash the "Rom" to overwrite any system tweaks.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated

Tutorial for getting Nokia Here/Drive maps onto the external SD card on a Lumia 532

Hi guys,

I bought a Lumia 532 for navigation purposes for my parents,
as they have absolutely no clue about smartphones and this
should be the easiest handset to work with. Also, I am totally
new to this operating system, because I am using Android and
iOS.

Now I am searching for a complete tutorial on how to get
the Nokia Here maps saved on the external SD card. It seems,
the old method with Lumia Storage Check Beta is not working
or existing anymore. :(

I found bits of information here and some there, but there is
just no single complete tutorial going from step 1 to x. :\

Thanks a lot in advance.

Why does Google Maps lose calibration so often?

I'm not sure what it is, but for the last few years, all the Samsung phones I've had have always lost calibration in Google maps after every few uses. That's disgustingly annoying. Does anyone know why this happens and how to fix it permanently? Please don't suggest installing another calibration tool to fix this issue. I'm looking for a real solution.

Phantom Recent Apps Glitch Google Maps

Hi everyone,

I have this weird glitch on my phone. When I'm using Google Maps, it would randomly open the "Recent Apps" and sometimes even the "Back" button would activate on its own. I initially thought it might have to do with the wireless charging but when I use Waze, I no longer see the phone glitching. Is it a hardware failure? Is it an Android software/Google Maps bug? Does this happen to anyone else?

I'm on stock T-Mobile with Developers Options enabled, and not rooted. According to this thread (http://forums.androidcentral.com/spr...presses-3.html) it's the GPU rendering.
