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.
