So here is the solution! I never used GPS much as I was pretty happy with the Google's location service. But I have read a lot about people facing issues with GPS on Canvas HD and thought, Why not give it a try!
The issue first
1. I keep waiting and waiting, but it shows "Searching for GPS"
2. What do do now?
Here are the steps:
a. Go to settings
Canvas HD GPS settings |
b. Under settings, go to Location access
c. Under location access, see if 'GPS sattelites' - The option is checked
d. Click on 'GPS Satellites'
e. You will see something like this
f. If 'GPS EPO assistance' is unchecked, Check it.
g. Done! Reboot & now give it a try
3. The end result..
Canvas HD GPS working |
Proof that GPS is working
Tests done using different apps |
Hope this small tutorial helped you with solving the GPS issue. Please post in your valuable comments and let me know if I can help you further!

ReplyDeleteTarun, did you follow all the steps? Give it a few minutes on open air. It will work. Did you reboot after the steps? Also you should have a strong internet connection.
