Public bug reported: Whenever I try to locate myself, the app/scope/whatever I am using does not manage to locate me even if location detection and GPS are on. The only way I manage to locate myself is through being connected to a wireless network.
I have tried using different apps and scopes that all use location data and none of them receive any GPS information unless I am on a wireless network. I never turn GPS off and I live in central London so there is no way it cannot find a GPS fix (I also have spend a lot of time outside and still no luck). I am using the OSMTouch app and it spends 20 seconds trying to locate me and comes back with Geolocation failed. This is using a Nexus 4. I have tried the current stable and devel- proposed channels. I asked on IRC this morning to find other people having issues with Nexus 4 GPS including one person who said: 'on the N4 i actually have to leave the device outside on the window shelf for 20-30 min to get GPS at all.' Is this a known issue with the Nexus 4? Is there a fix for this? Can anybody help fix this? ** Affects: location-service (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to location-service in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1441241 Title: Ubuntu Nexus 4 does not detect location Status in location-service package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Whenever I try to locate myself, the app/scope/whatever I am using does not manage to locate me even if location detection and GPS are on.
