S23 Ultra problems with Google Maps
Recently got my Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra from T-Mobile and all is well EXCEPT for one odd item: Google Maps shows me as “not connected” but others that I approved can see me and other apps that use ...
RESUELTO - I redid the sequence but this time I rebooted once after removing the update then a second time after installing the update. Now Google Maps is working properly. It must have been some corruption during the port-over from the S21 to this S23 and I assume that after several tries, whatever was broken was fixed by the update. Could be that the double reboots helped :-)
Thanks “Syaoran” and “tidbits” for jumping in and helping
A factory reset should not be necessary unless you think you have installed some sort of rogue app that is messing with it. With new devices, these small issues can arise and are usually fixed with the next app update.
One thing to note. Did you update the app fro. the ay Store or the Galaxy Store? I have noticed that app versions seem to differ between the two stores. If you try uninstall ing the updates and then updating it through the Galaxy Store, does that resolve the issue? If.not, using ADB to uninstall Google Maps and install it directly from the Galaxy Store might be worth trying before a factory reset.
