Could you please describe your problem in more detail? Which app are you trying to use? Are you located outside? Do you use both Internet and GPS to determine your location?

You should read thread http://talk.sonymobile.com/message/434123 and not ask users always the same questions! Please provide a solution.

I flashed the "World" Image to the phone (debrand) and now the GPS works fine! There is a problem with the provider modifications!! Sony should imporve the quality management! It's not the task of the end user.

Hello,

I'm having the same problem with my xperia P running 6.1.1.B.1.54 build.

Generally it takes 5-10 minutes to lock on GPS satellites; accuracy is 9-15 meters

I tried other xperia P running the same build with identical issue on GPS, this looks to me like general issue.

Can someone responsible reply?

PS:

Restore won’t help, I tried different tools, navigations with same results

Only advice that came up in my mind is downgrade (if possible) to Gingerbread, because with that build I didn’t noticed this issue.

I flashed the "World" image with flashtool to the phone and now gps is working. I think there is a problem with provider modifactions....
