      I have a Volla Phone. Normaly GPS should be runnig, but it doesn't work. If I use any program with navigation I still not find my current location.
      Any Ideas?
      Best Regards
      Ricky

        @blaubaer Are you using wayDroid?

        If yes (container running) you should reboot your device to make GPS working.

        Nexus 5 stable
        If God has a computer, it must be a GNU/Linux

          In addition to the above, since UT doesn't have AGPS enabled/working the initial time-to-fix is very long, since it's a full cold boot - 12.5 minutes on modern GPS hardware, up to 40 minutes on older ones. After that the fix should be faster if you use GPS once in a month.

          Best is to set the screen to never turn off, open an app like uNav and leave it on until it gets a lock (might have to be outside, good time to get some coffee outside 🙂 ). After that you should be set.

            (might have to be outside, good time to get some coffee outside )

            Not only outside, but also in open wide ground, away from buildings, where you can see open wide sky, so that all GPS satelites in the area are in sight.

            The more satelites, the faster fix.

            2015-Now : Meizu MX4 (Stable) for daily use
