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 Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to location-service in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1368647 Title: GPS and location detection not working on Nexus 4 Status in location-service package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Mako with MultiROM, utopic r239 None of the apps I have tried including Weather, Google maps, OSM Touch and SensorStatus are able to use the phone's GPS. The SensorStatus app actually reports "Found supported backend", but finds no position or other GPS data. Location detection on the other hand is doing something, but it is really far off when it comes to determining the actual location of the device. The Weather app suggests my location as Vänsjö, Jämtland, which is about 400 km north of Stockholm where I am at. OSM Touch reports "no location available" and Google maps "Your location could not be determined" I don't know if the GPS has to "waken up" somehow, but it has not shown any form of life for me on Ubuntu Touch, even though it works perfectly fine when booting the phone as Android.
