Google Maps showing me in wrong Location

[Paul_Days]

I just installed the new Google Maps 3.2 with Layers, and the darn app is showing me in INDIA! I Reset the app, and soft reset my phone no luck, any suggestions?

Hey Paul,

I had this issue on my Polaris when google maps was cooked into the rom, although i appredciate this isnt the case for you. Assume it shows your right location when you get a GPS lock?

If not, i would unistall it, delete the program folder and re-install.... It does have something to do with my location but not striaght foward (ha isnt it always)

I'll have a search but thry the above first, that worked for me as it was cooked in.

I had this issue with another country, and then I realised that somehow my "Regional Settings" were set to somewhere completely wrong when I installed Google maps, therefore it was working wrong. I uninstalled it, changed my Regional Settings to UK (which is where I am) and then re-installed Google Maps. Its worked rather accurately ever since.

Although, It would be nice to get an option to use after finding your general location to point out exactly where you are, which means directions "from here" would be more accurate.
