To me it sounds like issues with location in general, I wouldn't do special casing for camera. If the GPS is enabled from system settings, and geotagging is enabled for the camera, it should Just Work (at least outdoors) .
There have been several complaints on the phone mailing list about the GPS in general, and looks like some issues were fixed in OTA-8, so perhaps try with that again. In normal circumstances to get a first time (cold start) GPS-only fix outdoors might take 10 minutes, but getting location after that is much faster. Assisted GPS (A-GPS) is much faster and also works indoors, but I am not sure if we are using that? I would get location-service people to look at this. If we wanted to add any UI for displaying whether there is a GPS fix in the camera, I think it shouldn't get in the way of taking pictures - maybe changing the GPS icon to a broken/red GPS icon if GPS is enabled but there is no fix? and then updating the icon to normal GPS enabled icon once a fix has been acquired. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1510510 Title: Error with geotagging (fixed position defined as geotag) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1510510/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
