It's a bit tricky, but you can try the following code:

augroup LastPos
au! BufReadPost * call s:LastPos(&insertmode)
augroup END

func! s:LastPos(mode)
if a:mode == 2
au! LastPos InsertEnter
call feedkeys("\<C-R>=''[setpos('.',getpos(\"'\\\"\"))]\r", "n")
elseif line("'\"") >= 1 && line("'\"") <= line("$")
if a:mode == 1
au LastPos InsertEnter * call s:LastPos(2)
else
exe "normal! g`\""
endif
endif
endfunc
