Why does Google Maps lose calibration so often? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge

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.

GPS issues

So I saw a thread a couple months ago about people having issues with GPS. I am still having the typical "GPS SIGNAL LOST" error practically every time I use Google maps. I understand it is possibly a software bug, but has anyone used a different navigation app or solved this issue. Also is using a custom rom going to have any help with as I am at 4.3 rooted stock as of now.

If you don't like what is given to you for free, either don't use it or fix it yourself.

You don't use task managers in Android.
Just my point of view:

You don't need a task manager. The phone has enough ram and if you really must need a app to hibernate, look into using the greenify app.

I've just noticed particularly the Facebook app has really drained my battery if I let it run in the background

I can confirm these results. I uninstalled the app and just use mobile site. Try Greenify, it will work for this issue too.

Says the guy wanting to use task managers. Seriously, if the app is the issue why would you hunt for a work around? Get rid of the problem don't hide it.

I believe there is more to this than some of you are recognizing. I have a question. Go look in your battery menu and look at the apps using the most battery. Does it show each app keeping the mobile radio active? If so because i'm reading on reddit along with my personal experience. Google Play Store, Google Play Services, Facebook, Chrome, Play Music are doing that. No one seems to know why yet either. Tell me what you find out.

That's never been identified until lollipop, there's no way to know it's any different now than it ever has been.

Well its pretty obvious for me. Ive never seen these apps really sot at the top other than google play services for a gps wakelock. But these apps are inconsistently at the top but when they are, they keep the mobile radio active for hours when screen on time might be a 1/4 of that.
Well then. Try app called Battery Doctor. It will let you see what's draining your battery and let you selectively close the ones you want to.

Question concerning XDA app

Ok, has anyone experienced while using the XDA app for your phone that it sometimes doesn't always register "thanks" or when you press "refresh" at the bottom of the last page of a thread and it doesn't show new posts unless you back out? Just figured I would ask in case someone knows how to fix that

I have the thanks problem also

I have dealt with that for a while. The xda app sucks. It been reported yet no one does anything about it. Yet tapatalk works more then the xda app. It has a few issues but it is the lesser of 2 evils

S Voice issues

So before I update to Lollipop. I wanted to find out if anyone has a fix. All of sudden Svoice wake hands free isnt working properly. I say hi samsung, it wakes but wont listen unless I depress the mic button. Defeating the hands free benefit. It has just started occuring and has opened and listened and completed the command as it should since I've had the unit. I wonder if anyone has a fix or advice. Thanks. I searched and only found hits where Svoicw wouldn't wake.

On my device reacts to Hi Galaxy. Find app in aplication manager and clear cache and data. It should help.
