Using Google maps, the phone can't pinpoint where I'm at. It's jumping all over the map. Is there an issue with gps or google maps and the note5 at the moment? Also it always takes 15 to 20 seconds to lock onto my location every time I use maps. Anyone else notice this?

I have never had an issue with Google maps, perhaps is your WiFi

Every single time I go to use mine, there is a 20 second delay before it will lock onto my location. Whether I'm moving or not. Wonder what the heck could be causing this....gee.

I experienced something similar with my note 4. It made it unsafe to use the GPS since I was constantly staring at it trying to figure out if it was accurately giving me directions. So far I haven't had the same issues on the note 5. I wonder if some phones just have a faulty GPS chip and an exchange would fix your issue.
