Re: [Ubuntu-phone] gps not working since OTA-9.1

nope, for me GPS works fine, but *only* turns on when you are using a moving dot maps program. Things that just ask for the location get a cached location and it doesn't appear to attempt to do better, if something subscribes to updates, like google maps or OSM Touch then the GPS turns on and

Re: [Ubuntu-phone] GPS/location and other background processing

so, if I ensure my phone has current location by running a maps application that continuously updates, then close that, and drive a few miles, get out and chill for a while, giving the phone plenty of time to get it's act together, then take some photos, then visit http://www.where-am-i.net/

Re: [Ubuntu-phone] GPS/location and other background processing

it isn't really about that, it is about providing less broken location data to applications that ask for it. The current situation is that if an application requests location data it gets given random coordinates of somewhere you may have been to in the last week or so. Then it thinks about

Re: [Ubuntu-phone] Dual-SIM phone features?

you can choose which is the default SIM for data/text/calls so you could have a local SIM for data roaming if your main SIM contract is still harsh on data roaming - this is slowly being fixed as suppliers are starting to give you your data allowance when roaming, or pay a few £/€ a day for

so, today I cycled a mile to the office, walked around town for an hour, it is now 4PM and I go to a page I know uses location services, https://www.aldi.co.uk/storelocator/ it asks to allow location, I allow it, and it pins me at home, where I was 8 hours ago. Is this expected behavior of the

Re: [Ubuntu-phone] [idea] how to get popular apps from other mobile markets

most of these are platform features that can't be third party things I think, especially suggesting disruptive sales models like selling it with Asterisk. I have always been rather sad at the feature chasing, and lack of defining a distinct market for the phone. The priority has always been

Re: [Ubuntu-phone] [idea] how to get popular apps from other mobile markets

I think it is more important to have a unique selling point, trying to match other platforms app by app and feature by feature ends up building something that is designed for chasing the market segment "people who would rather have an iPhone". This doesn't seem to me like a great market. Going
