I may go to toysrus on Sunday and swop mine,it's obviously a faulty machine cos sony don't seem to be saying much ,also while im in the mood for moaning. Fifa is un playable in daylight it's far to dark to enjoy. i rage quit lol and don't get me started on no iplayer via remote play.
I doubt its a faulty machine. There are to many occurrences of the problem. It more than likely software based in which the Vita works. It's probably a firmware update away. The mods on here have said they have passed it on, Sony can't say anything apart from they are aware, which has been noted by the mods. I'm sure once they work out the issues they will let people know.

I can confirm...

I went to Game, got it swapped this morning.

Updated etc etc

Still the same

Doesnt look like its the vita?


I think people might be over panicking a bit here. It's highly likely to be a software issue.

Re: 'Near' not working

Yep my Wi-fi version isn't working either for maps or near?

It keeps saying that it could not identify my location and give an error code  (C2-13396-2)

I'm hoping they'll patch it soon. Unless I need to fiddle with my router settings?

I've emailed playstation support and I'm awaiting a response.

Right I've factory reset mine, then turned off Bluetooth, went outside (only a wifi model but thought I'd try, still connected to wifi) and to my amazement it works!!!!!

Re: 'Near' not working

How many people have tried adding their home location to skyhook? I suspect that's where the issue is with Wi-Fi units. Also be aware that it may take up to a week for the update to be complete.
