[Bug 1426307] Re: location is inaccurate

 

I've never had GPS location work without the HERE functions enabled. As
soon as I disable it (I have to restart for a change to take effect) I
get *no* location info whatsoever. (I have waited for weeks to get a GPS
lock, to no avail.)

The SensorsStatus tool tells me (when HERE is enabled) that I only have
Horizontal accuracy, and that drifts between 8m and 250m.

Location: Netherlands
SIMs/network: dual sim and lots of wifi around
Version: latest Ubuntu 15.04 r24 (20150713) on the Aquaris BQ 4.5

  Location is inaccurate, it thinks that I'm several kilometres away
  from my actual location, in the middle of the sea.
