Gents,
After several days of tests, i can confirm the GPS is working fine. It's
taking 2-10 min to get the satellites.

the GPS) : M9615A-CEFWMAZM-2.0.1700.84

Hi,
I'm running mako with Ubuntu 15.04 20150727 (r22). Same issue with similar

GPS is still a bit iffy for me but it works most of the time if I am patient

Can anyone say when this will be implemented and released?

Is there anything at all I can do? File system is read-only at the

On android I heavily use gps and it's definitely a show stopper on

It seems as if the GPS takes really long to wake up after a reboot.
Just got it working again an hour or so after the last reboot.
