There have been reports from others that after wiping their phone, that
both Google and HERE work but then after updating they don't continue to
work. ChickenCutlass has experienced this and I believe pmcgowan has as
well.

Title:
  location not working reliably in browser or webapps

Status in Web Browser App:
  New
Status in “location-service” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  krillin build 72
  - I have not wiped my phone in quite a while but instead have been doing OTA updates
  - I manually re-ran the setup wizard to ensure the HERE location stuff was enabled, which it is
  - reboot the phone

  I launch Google Maps webapp and it tells me "Your location could not
  be determined". I try this repeatedly over the course of many minutes
  with the same results.

  I do the same with HERE maps webapp and I get the same message.

  I run OSMtouch app and it is able to locate me. I do get a popup
  saying "No GPS available. Position is approximate" but the location on
  the map is roughly accurate.
