GPS doesn't work on MEIZU mx4

The GPS receiver needs direct free view at least to 3-4 satelites.

After one hour outside no gps fix

@stefwe Clear sky or cloudy, rainy? Or in a street with skyscrappers? Be more specific about test conditions.

@guru i have my n5 on the same position and get a fix after a few seconds.

@stefwe
I tried "uNav" and "GoogleMaps" and in both apps the geolocation worked after a few minutes.

Hi guru,
apparently geolocation only works via GPS and not using the hotspots around (neither WLAN), hence I can not be located on the map while using the device indoors. Let's hope that this will be further developed in the future!

@Duke Hmm, indoor you should know where you are

@Duke i made a 30minutes walk with the kids, but no fix

@guru
When traveling abroad, it makes sense in foreign towns between skyscrapers, in restaurants or on the subway.
