1.2 miles

[+Nilbog!]

My gps is not reading my location and the caches always read 1.2 miles away.

 

Ive restarted, reinstalled, logged in and out, my current location setting is on.

 

Any suggestions?

1 make sure your gps settings (the android settings) are set to include google / wifi / cellular.

2 download and install either GPS Status or GPS Test from the market. once installed you'll want to find the "reset a-gps" and "update a-gps" or similar in whichever app you installed

3 set your android settings back to "GPS ONLY"

4 try again with the geocaching app.

 

i'm assuming your gps was working off old positional data, or ONLY using wifi / cellular at the time, and that was the cause for the location error. if it's a bug in the app (very likely, the gc app is terribly in my opinion) this will not fix it.
