Hi all,

if landings for OTA 9.1 Arale took out the GPS, then subsequent
landings must have fixed that, as GPS works on my Mx4 on
rc-proposed updated.

As Wayne noted, HERE maps fails to find a position though
uNav, OSMScout, OSMTouch, SensorStatus and Location test all
work.

A real peculiarity, is that when a GPS obtained fix has gone
stale and I am out of sight of the sats, then uNav, OSMTouch and
OSMScout revert back to what is likely a wifi determined fix
that is 6 months old. I need to purge that somehow.

Regards Royden
