After updating to the leaked froyo at the end of July, google maps now gives me the wrong location. I'm in iowa and it shows me in missouri. If I use wifi or cell tower, it's correct. Is there an update I need to do?
Hi
I'm in Aus and trying to get NFL Game Pass to work on my KF with cm7, and but it gets stuck on the "verifying your location" screen because there is no gps.
I have tried using "location spoofer" in the android market but it still doesn't work (google maps won't see the fake location). I have an iPhone so can't tether with an android phone/gps.
Anyone have any solutions for this?
Have you tried LBE Privacy Guard?
I can't seem to get a Google Location on Google Maps or ShowNearby (Singapore application) when using LTE (without GPS). Getting a location works fine when using using 3G or wifi (again without GPS). Getting a location on LTE (without GPS) also works fine the first time my phone is factory reset. Running Google Maps the second time leaves me unable to get a location again.
Anyone have the same problem? I'm wondering whether it's due to my local cellphone towers not being able to serve up a location while on LTE.
To replicate the issue, reboot and open Google Maps while on LTE and attempt to get a location.
Hey guys!
So I've tried Google and I think I've exhausted my resources, but has anyone experienced a problem with the Play Store not working on Wifi. The wifi connection is fine as I can browse the web, get email updates, and run apps that require a network connection, but the Plat Store just cannot connect at all. I've tried the phone without the sim card in just to make sure the other apps weren't using the 4g connection through some backdoor. However, on 4g, the play store connects just fine as does everything else. I'm running the "official" jb leak for the chinese atrix 2, ME865, rooted. Any tips on the issue?
Thanks in advance!

This is a known issue some of us saw after the ICS upgrade as well.
Try and clear all the data and cache for the play store app. This is in settings, apps, running or all apps (depends if it is running or not), click on the play store the clear all the data and cache from there.
Then reboot. When the phone comes back up, try to use the play store on WiFi. You will have to log back into your Google account in the play store and say yes to the agreement again, if it works.
Somewhat similar problem is faced by me after i fxz back to ics from cm10.1
i can get into playstore but no apps are getting downloaded only the preloader appears for every app (the loading kind of thing appears before actual download)..works on data but not wifi
have tried wiping cache of the play store and even wiped cache of the rom..
is there anything else i can do?
edit: found solution.. remove google account reboot open play store and add account again..!!
hello everyone
I'm an expat in China and as many of you know google is blocked in China, for email and search using VPN works perfectly but google feeds (google now cards) just shows error message whenever i try to use it.
I thought to myself maybe because I'm using VPN the device knows I'm using it and it knows my actual location and tells google, but using a VPN installed on my router to access the internet there is no way the device could know that.
And i know its not settings error because the moment i connect to airport WiFi in my original country google now starts working again.
I tried disabling location services in every google app in permissions but yet it doesn't want to work.
so my question is how does google do that (knows that I'm leaving in China) and is there a way to disable it
Thanks
