Some people flashed "ubuntu-touch/stable/bq-aquaris.en" channel in addition with latest nexus 4 radio and it works.
Reference: http://askubuntu.com/questions/691468/how-to-use-gps-on- nexus-4 On my it does not work :( Since all nexus 4 should be the same, I wonder why it works on some nexus 4, but not on others. I am hoping there is something I can do to make this work... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to location-service in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1368647 Title: GPS and location detection not working on Nexus 4 Status in location-service package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Mako with MultiROM, utopic r239 None of the apps I have tried including Weather, Google maps, OSM Touch and SensorStatus are able to use the phone's GPS. The SensorStatus app actually reports "Found supported backend", but finds no position or other GPS data. Location detection on the other hand is doing something, but it is really far off when it comes to determining the actual location of the device. The Weather app suggests my location as Vänsjö, Jämtland, which is about 400 km north of Stockholm where I am at. OSM Touch reports "no location available" and Google maps "Your location could not be determined" I don't know if the GPS has to "waken up" somehow, but it has not shown any form of life for me on Ubuntu Touch, even though it works perfectly fine when booting the phone as Android.
