My iphone 4 can't find my location anymore. The GPS pinpoint is way off from me in maps. In the GPS Drive, it thinks i am on the other side of town. I have tried various combinations of restarting the phone and turning the GPS on and off, and it still can't find me. I haven't had any problems with the GPS before updating at all. It has always been very accurate for me. Also Reminders has no clue where I am. It also won't let me enter in my own address. But it will let me put in the address from one of my contacts.

Is anyone else having this problem? Is there anything that I can do? It seems that this sort of thing has happened with past updates, do I just have to wait for a fix to be released?

Mine had me located in London when I live in Newcastle, I turned the phone off and it seemed to work for me

Mine has me at about a mile away from my house, and the blue circle that comes up when it is looking for you stays really big when it would normally get really small after finding me. Turning the phone on and off didn't help at all. I am going to keep trying when I go to work, and hope that going into a major city with more towers will help it get it's bearings straight. However, Reminders still says that it can't find my location at all.
