„I let upstart start the location service with gps::Provider as the only provider“ as described in #11 – I have commented lines in /etc/init /ubuntu-location-service.override and restarted the service, so I got:
# ps aux | grep [g]ps root 7065 0.1 0.5 151508 10048 ? Ssl 17:05 0:00 /usr/bin/ubuntu-location-serviced --bus system --provider gps::Provider But GPS is still not working. In the log file, I found an error: # cat /var/log/ubuntu-location-service/com.ubuntu.location.INFO Log file created at: 2015/08/02 17:05:53 Running on machine: ubuntu-phablet Log line format: [IWEF]mmdd hh:mm:ss.uuuuuu threadid file:line] msg I0802 17:05:53.963609 7065 ofono_nm_connectivity_manager.cpp:699] [connection_goes_via_wifi] E0802 17:08:45.950181 7072 android_hardware_abstraction_layer.cpp:157] Error downloading GPS Xtra data: Timeout was reached: Operation timed out after 1428 milliseconds with 53576 out of 59748 bytes received I also agree that GPS is very important function. I love Ubuntu because it brings real GNU/Linux to my phone, so I can do almost anything (e.g. run SQL database or even GlassFish in my pocket device), but if navigation is not working, I can't use it as a smartphone. Where can I find more log files or debug it? -- 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/1368647 Title: GPS and location detection not working on Nexus 4 Status in location-service package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Mako with MultiROM, utopic r239 None of the apps I have tried including Weather, Google maps, OSM Touch and SensorStatus are able to use the phone's GPS. The SensorStatus app actually reports "Found supported backend", but finds no position or other GPS data. Location detection on the other hand is doing something, but it is really far off when it comes to determining the actual location of the device. The Weather app suggests my location as Vänsjö, Jämtland, which is about 400 km north of Stockholm where I am at. OSM Touch reports "no location available" and Google maps "Your location could not be determined" I don't know if the GPS has to "waken up" somehow, but it has not shown any form of life for me on Ubuntu Touch, even though it works perfectly fine when booting the phone as Android.
