Title: Can not see satellites after update.
Post by: Simonthebum on March 28, 2018, 15:23:08
Hi
From 2 updates ago Locus can no longer find any satellites. Other apps can. I have done a soft reset, reinstalled turned off Privacy Guard and used words not found in the dictionary.

Am I the only one having this problem. Sony Z1 Android 5.1.1

Locus is the main reason I have a smart phone. I'll be gutted if I can't get it to work.

Cheers Simon

 THANK YOU, that fixed it.

GPS compatibility mode enabled in settings and now the world is a wonderful place again.

Thanks for your help.

Cheers Simon

Simon I have exact same phone & Android version as you, and Locus is my main app. I didn't need compatibility mode. I've had no problems with 3.30.2 Pro & 3.30.2.3 beta. Happy to share any settings if it helps you.
