Anyone noticed on the latest Google maps update, that all you get is North Up, and not current direction up? I had to revert to 6.9.2. NOT having this issue on my Galaxy Nexus.
Nope, works like it always has.

I get a gps fix very quickly but I get stuck sometimes that google maps just wont download tge actual map. I checked the settings and it said the total amount downloaded was 0kb. Even resetting the app doesn't always fix it.
Anyone else seen this? Maybe this is why so many people think the gps is broken?

I got my N10 about a week ago. Updated to 4.3, unlocked & rooted, still running stock ROM. When I run GPS Status, it gets a GPS lock pretty quickly however the compass doesn't work. It just points forward with no orientation or pitch/roll. I installed another compass app that I've used before & that doesn't work either. Is this happening for anyone else? I'm concerned it could be a hardware issue, but I did notice that when I use Google Maps, the compass seems to work and the orientation is fairly accurate. Google Sky Map works as well.
I've restarted the device several times. I've uninstalled/reinstalled GPS Status. I've wiped cache/dalvik. I want to assume it's just a app bug, but I haven't seen anyone else reporting it. And the app was updated just last week.
Anyone else have this issue? Any suggestion on other ways to test my N10 to rule out that it's a hardware issue?

I have the same problem on my Nexus 10. Upgraded to 4.3, device not rooted just stock. Have you found an answer?

No I haven't. Even emailed the developer but never got a reply. However I discovered that if I go to Menu > Radar, the compass will release & rotate. Switch back to Status & it continues to work, at least until you close and restart the app. Hopefully if enough people report this, an update will fix it.

Thanks for your help. That works OK until you restart the app or reboot. At least I have a working fix and I'll put a comment on the developers web site. The app works fine on my Samsung S4 - maybe its a 4.3 related problem.
Thanks again.
Hi all,
Anyone noticed Google Maps app working slowly (laggy) with Note 4? I tried stock rom or custom rom/kernel, but I don't understand the reason.
It's not a big trouble because navigation works fine, but it's a little bit annoying. Does anyone found a solution?
Thanks!

Just checked and it works normally for me, no slow down at all.

Strange, what Rom and processor type do you have? I'm Snapdragon with POF2 stock. I just don't have any lag with it at all. It's totally smooth.

SimplRom v4F - N910F
Just only one time had NO issue, it was the first time I flashed SimplRom v3.2F and obviously I don't know why! but after some apps installation (in particular missing bloatware on the ROM) gmaps lags came back.
UPDATE: I've just take back my device after some hours charging with no connection and voila lags on gmaps disappeared! For verification I rebooted phone and lag re-appeared! totally NOSENSE.

I'd think that there's something removed in the ROM that maps needs or Is trying to use. As I said, on stock it's fine for me so that suggests there's something missing in the SimpleRom.

Unfortunately I already wrote also with stock and unrooted ROM gmaps ran slowly, but ok not a very big issue. Maybe one day I'll find the reason and a solution
I am using N910U exynos ver. and i observed that the google maps app laggy is causing by Note 4's 2k resolution, it seems be the GPU not powerful enough.
If you need smooth experience in google maps, you may try to enable the "Multi window" function, open 2 apps by up and down side in the screen (1. Google maps; 2. Chrome...etc.), then you can feel google maps run smoother than you run it by full screen.
I just rooted and installed slim lp 5.0 on my Verizon lgg2. Now my GPS is acting weird. Jumping me across the street. I downloaded a GPS satellite checker app and it didn't show any. Please help. Not sure if it's software or hardware.
@N01F3AR: try a reboot
I've tried power cycling. I downloaded the gaps injector to see if that helps.
Is it your GPS app, or google maps location?
Have you disabled any services? Something similar happened to me when I was playing around with parts of Google Play Services.
Anybody else experiencing this with China Rom?
It's so bad that anywhere I open the Google maps app and start Navigating it stays stuck at the same location.
I just got the phone a few days ago, and I still have about 12 days of waiting time for bootloader unlocking. I'm very frustrated with the CH Rom, my samsung wearable app does not start, keyboard sucks, lots of bloatware that cant be removed, etc.

There is a magisk module GPS FIX or something like that, it should help with GPS locking if you are rooted.
