Have you tried GPS only? As i said, the GPS signal only works like a charm on Android on the same hardware, so it isn't a hw-issue. After i tested the android image i flashed the phone back to the latest firmware downloaded from the BQ site and the GPS is still unusable for me. Cellular and WLAN info can speed things up a but, but GPS only should work also. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to indicator-location in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1442105 Title: GPS not working on my BQ Ubuntu Touch Status in indicator-location package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Hi.
