[Tom Rhodes <1368647@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm now on 15.04 r37, rc bq.aquaris channel on the nexus 4, I've flashed
the radio to the android 4.3 version and GPS still does not work for me
at all.

It did work for about a month in September but since then it is broken
again, I've tried stable, rc, rc-proposed, devel on the mako, and now
the rc on the bq.aquaris channel. I've tried disabling gps, and keeping
the loation detection on and then restarting, flashing the radio every
proposed solution online so far has no effect for me. This is really
frustrating as it's a core feature of the device and many apps and
online services utilize or depend on it.

Where are the relevent logs and will it help to post them here?

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.
