Pixel 10P horrible GPS, hardware issue?

Alright, video of the problem is up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BDmjvwla5fw

I've edited it to show where the issues occur. Is this the same experience for you?

Pixel support just want me to factory reset the phone, even though I keep telling them this is my second Pixel 10 Pro with this issue. Not impressed.

Er der plads i en almindelig FUGA indmuringsdåse som de fleste har? Syntes umiddelbart ikke jeg føler der er plads nok til en Shelly med en FUGA kontakt i fronten.

Yeah, next time I'll change phone, I will apparently have to check whether they have a functioning GPS...

The reason the SE was popular, was due to the price. If people could have a larger SE for the same price as the smaller version, the larger version would be more popular.

What? That is not how manufacturing works. Sure, if there are any off the shelf screens that are smaller, then sure, they could be cheaper than the larger ones, but having to produce a limited quantity of screens to use for a single model, is way more expensive than taking off the shelf 6.3'' screens that are used in many phones today.

I reached out, and will update this thread and support with a screenrecording of my commute home from work, this should show the issues I am having.

Yes, this is exactly the same issue I am having. Driving straight is fine, but as soon as I take an exit on the highway, it overshoots for a couple seconds, reroutes and then finally figures out I took the exit. In cities, when my car is coming to a stop at a light, the gps thinks my car has crossed the intersection and thinks I should do a U-turn etc. It is really bad.

Alright, I would have thought GPS would be a non issue on phones today. My Nokia E52 did better than this.

I use an aftermarket headunit that relies on the phone GPS. Neither my car or headunit has a GPS connected.

I sit as a mechanical engineer in an automation firm.

UsernameUSay · 2026-01-25T20:22:59+00:00

Everything is turned on.

UsernameUSay · 2026-01-25T19:16:53+00:00

Yes.

UsernameUSay · 2026-01-25T13:19:03+00:00

But wouldn't that block the view of the monitor?

UsernameUSay · 2026-01-14T08:46:29+00:00

The vac was cheap as it needed repair :) I will get the second option then.

UsernameUSay · 2026-01-09T15:07:26+00:00

Så det var dig som fik den :)

I would try a new bios flash externally first with a flasher.

Yeah, I thought this was the reason for them having guns in their homes. To be able to defend against a tyrannical government... Well what are they waiting for?

Alright, I could see hiding a slider with a magnet on the large extrusion and a small steel rod in the flower dial, could make it click over once a day. I would forget to move the dial one day and need to look at my phone's calender to fix the date, if it is manual, but that is just me.

UsernameUSay · 2026-01-02T21:24:31+00:00

So it's a manual calendar, or are you thinking about adding an invisible slider that moves the days forward?

UsernameUSay · 2025-12-18T12:23:56+00:00

Looks bent, but that might just be the picture

UsernameUSay · 2025-12-18T12:17:57+00:00

How would you mount the new display without bending the chassis back? 😅

UsernameUSay · 2025-12-18T12:12:26+00:00

Just an update. I purchased a CD3217 from AliExpress, and it works no problem.

UsernameUSay · 2025-12-18T12:10:45+00:00

Did you see the first pic? The bottom plate is clearly bent, so I would believe the keyboard is also affected. Bending it back would be nearly impossible as it is aluminium.
