What's even worse is that while I'm in the car my samsung phone doesn't get any gps signal at all and also 3 other passengers with 2 iphones and another samsung had no gps. Looks like for some reason the cic/gps antenna is blocking any gps signal completely.
The cic did eventually recognise that I'm abroad and did show that I'm in France but still it's pretty unusable therfore I'm going to disconnect the antena for now so I can use the phone as otherwise we have no nav working at all.
The antena is off ebay but read that people have good luck with it.
Any input is highly appreciated as I'm confused and not sure where to start from with this one.
Thanks beforehand!

Right, OK so where have you mounted the GPS antenna firstly? Stuck to the windscreen? On top of the dash? Underneath something? There is a good reason for asking, depending on your answer
