          @lakotaubp However, GPS is not really usable in uNav or Puremaps, the location is not updated in real time, is this normal ? I ll restart the phone and check again.

            The sky is not very cloudy but sensor status fails too often to get the new location. I can locate myself from time to time but this is not practical for navigation.

            I don't know if this is normal.

              @embeddedmz Clouds have nothing to do with signal strength. GPS gets radio signals from satellites orbiting the earth which are unaffected by weather. Where are you testing GPS? High buildings, deep valleys, and dense forest can interfere with reception, which is why you were told three times to try it in an open space.

              Having said that, it is possible your phone simply does not work well with GPS under any circumstances. Personally I find Puremaps and GPS work well enough for my purposes on a Nexus 5.

                Hi.
                I resolve the problem in Android setting off the option 'Precisione della geolocalizzazione in google' ('google geolocation accuracy', my phone in in italian).

                Is there any way to set the same option in UT?
