Really want to check something out.
The meteor storm is my reason to ask.
Has anyone else found their satnav playing up?
My Android phone says in in Asaka in Japan! Possible satnav sat damage? I'm expecting broken phone, but just thought I'd put it out for people to check.

no ! try doing a hard reset on phone and wait for it to re-align with satellites may work
your phone would use satellites for maps and mast for communication hence i didnt read your post properly and gave wrong info , a reset so you can re-align is all thats needed

Probably your misus reprogrammed it trying to get rid of you for a few days.

The key is to get a good sat nav,.. and have the best of both worlds,..I have a great sat nav, that's never let me down,... but I also have maps if need be
