[Bug 1426307] Re: location is inaccurate
Hi Lucio,
> Yes, it's working perfectly in Portugal/Spain but not in Germany.
A big location change could take a lot of time, the same as the first app
startup. Could you leave it near to a window or in the car without movement?

> The accuracy in Portugal drifts between 2m and 20m.
Yes, 2,5m is the best possible for a mobile GPS.
>
> In Germany there's no data at all visible in this app.
It's weird :( The 26% of users are from Germany and no body reported
this.
>
> I don't accept it to use a service like Nokia's HERE
Do you have the Nokia HERE disabled? You have to enable it :( It's the
unique way the GPS will work.
Could be this the origin of the problem?

Yes, I need to think in something about current GPS data :)

Best regards and thanks for your feedback!
