Samsung Galaxy Note 3 GPS Issue
Anyone else having issues with their Note 3 GPS? I'm having an issue were every time I plug or unplug the charger from my phone the GPS drops out. I have to then toggle the GPS on/off in my quick settings to get it working again while navigating. It also seems to drop the signal when I get an incoming phone call while using the navigation app. I have confirmed this same behavior on 2 other friends Note 3's. I'm hoping this is just a software issue that will be fixed in a future os update.

If the next update (KitKat or whatever) doesn't fix GPS I'm going to T-Mobile and having them pay my ETF. The GPS issue is a deal breaker for me. This is completely unnaceptable on such an expensive flagship device and a fix is taking entirely too long.

@ms_unicornAre you aware of the AT&T update that went out yesterday? Do you know what the status is on the fix that you said AT&T and Samsung were jointly producing? Whatever went out yesterday obviously did not fix the GPS issue based on the most recent comments.

I use Maps for navigation, combined with a dash cam app to record driving. If I can't rely on the GPS remaining usable (coordinates are stored as a subtitle stream in the video, and random errors make the use of the video in accident lawsuits dubious at best) then I can't keep relying on AT&T as the smartphone provider for our business needs.

Hotspot from them through work and it's signal is just as strong anywhere I
take it inside MA with the exception of when I drive to Cape cod.
