GPS fix for S3

Enthusiast - Level 2

Tighten all the Phillips screws inside the phone. Remove battery to cold start the phone. Signal levels outside should be 35 to 43 using GPS test app. This simple fix worked for me and restored my phone to the way it was when it was new! This phone is bigger than any I have had and I think that it flexes in my pocket and the screws loosen affecting the antenna connection for gps. I will be tightening my screws about every 2 months from now on!
