Do you have the Turf app "at front" when this happens or do you switch between apps?

Does the GPS work properly in other applications, such as GPS Test (play.google.com/store/apps/...), Endomondo, Runkeeper, Strava, etc?

"5z 12312p +55" means that you don't have proper network connection. See the attached image I took after setting the phone in flight mode and starting Turf.

I have the same problem with my HTC Desire. When I start the application the GPS shuts down after 10 seconds, then when I have restarted it, it works properly through the whole session. I have problems in other applications like Ingress or Google maps.

I've had this happen to me on two occasions now. The GPS suddenly switches off in the app (but is still active in the OS), and I can easily restart it by pressing the turf icon and yes. And it gets going for another 5 or so seconds and I'll need to repeat the procedure. The first time it happened to me, it started about halfway through a session and kept going for the rest of that day. The second time (a week or two later), it was already there and persisted for half an hour until I toggled the GPS on and off a few times in the OS, after which it worked fine for the rest of the day.

Will it work properly again if you restart your device?

When I start up the GPS it only is on in between 5-15 seconds, but... When the GPS is in the zone it doesn't switch off. But when the icon "!" comes up it switch off again. Sometimes the GPS never switch off in a turf session, and sometimes it switch off (faster than a second)
