Title:
Ubuntu Nexus 4 does not detect location
Status in location-service package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Whenever I try to locate myself, the app/scope/whatever I am using
does not manage to locate me even if location detection and GPS are
on. The only way I manage to locate myself is through being connected
to a wireless network.
I have tried using different apps and scopes that all use location
data and none of them receive any GPS information unless I am on a
wireless network.
I never turn GPS off and I live in central London so there is no way
it cannot find a GPS fix (I also have spend a lot of time outside and
still no luck). I am using the OSMTouch app and it spends 20 seconds
trying to locate me and comes back with Geolocation failed.
This is using a Nexus 4. I have tried the current stable and devel-
proposed channels.
I asked on IRC this morning to find other people having issues with
Nexus 4 GPS including one person who said: 'on the N4 i actually have
to leave the device outside on the window shelf for 20-30 min to get
GPS at all.'
Is this a known issue with the Nexus 4? Is there a fix for this? Can
anybody help fix this?
