[Bug 1368647] Re: GPS and location detection not working on Nexus 4
Gents, After several days of tests, i can confirm the GPS is working fine. It's taking 2-10 min to get the satellites. - For some asking the radio (even if i'm not sure if it's relevant for the GPS) : M9615A-CEFWMAZM-2.0.1700.84 - I set /var/lib/ubuntu-location-service/config.ini to : Engine::State=Engine::Status::on Engine::SatelliteBasedPositioningState=SatelliteBasedPositioningState::on Engine::WifiAndCellIdReportingState=WifiAndCellIdReportingState::on Not sure if it's help for the pure GPS localization. - last step : Removing the phone from it's wallet type case ... I wasn't expected so much difference. I think this is the main factor contributing to have a poor signal. The tests were performed through Unav and activity trackers. As said before, the phone is under RC-proposed BQ-aquaris dual boot with multirom. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to location-service in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1368647 Title: GPS and location detection not working on Nexus 4 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/location-service/+bug/1368647/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

On a daily basis, i'm not able to use the GPS. In order to get nearby information i'm relying on wifi(accurate)+3g(inaccurate), unfortunately i cannot use Unav app for instance.

[Bug 1368647] Re: GPS and location detection not working on Nexus 4
Yay, it works finally!:) (Almost) I tried all kinds of posibilities many times, and it works only then: 1. Flashing bq-aquaris.en channel 2. Turn on GPS with Nokia HERE setting. 3. Restart. Tests show, that it works independent of radio version, it can be old or new, does not matter (It always works if 1-2-3 above is done on any channel, and don't work if the opposite). It matters to have /bq-aquaris.en channel installed, because I could not find Nokia HERE setting on '/ubuntu' channel.. Tested with SensorsStatus app and uNAV app, it works. But "sudo test_gps" command only shows empty values... and two "unkown error" at the start. If I disable wi-fi and enable flight mode, gps still recognizes location correctly, so this means that GPS itself must be working. Tried to drive with my finally working GPS today, but signal was very unstable, map choppy, unav was not knowing the direction and all kinds of other problem - mostly loosing signal. I could reacuire signal only by switching apps SensorsStatus -> uNAV, and visa versa, this way signal always reappears but only if I switch those apps, and after a minute, lost again. I'll test more later (weeks). But glad it works just a bit, some more steps and it might be working well! :) Now the questions are why is does not know direction (compass etc.), why test_gps does not work, why maps are so choppy (not smooth) and what causes signal to always dissapear untill I swith apps. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to location-service in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1368647 Title: GPS and location detection not working on Nexus 4 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/location-service/+bug/1368647/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 1368647] Re: GPS and location detection not working on Nexus 4
I've played around a bit and got it working acceptably here... (I've switched to the rtm image some time but I think that's not the point...) It seems like the location service is intentionally started without gps support. See ps -eaf | grep location and /etc/init/ubuntu-location-service.override. But deleting the .override file did not seem to be sufficient. It works for me if I let upstart start the location service with gps::Provider as the only provider...
