If your Samsung Galaxy GPS isn’t working well on Bell in Canada, you may notice delayed GPS lock, inaccurate navigation, or apps failing to pinpoint your location. Follow the steps below to quickly restore accurate GPS performance.
Step 1: Turn On High Accuracy Mode
Go to Settings > Location and turn on High Accuracy. Bell’s network-assisted GPS improves significantly when this mode is active.
Step 2: Update Bell Carrier Settings
Open Settings > Software Update and install any available updates. Bell frequently releases patches to enhance GPS and radio performance.
Step 3: Reset Location and Network Settings
Go to Settings > General Management > Reset and select Reset Location Settings or Reset Network Settings. This fixes issues caused by outdated AGPS data or inconsistent tower connections.
Step 4: Adjust Preferred Network Type
Navigate to Settings > Connections > Mobile Networks. If GPS becomes unstable in areas with weak Bell 5G, switch to LTE Only for better consistency.
Step 5: Clear Cache for Navigation Apps
Go to Settings > Apps > Maps (or Waze/Uber) → Storage > Clear Cache to refresh outdated location data.

AvNexo Tip
Bell’s network occasionally causes GPS drift in downtown areas with tall buildings. Recalibrate your compass in Google Maps to regain accurate direction.
