Anybody else have a problem where Google Now stops showing weather updates? I've tried everything listed in threads in other forums on this problem, including turning Google Now on and off, turning weather on and off, changing weather settings, etc. Nothing seems to be working.
Not a huge deal, of course. Just bugs me...
I have same problem, went missing today

I don't have it either. It won't respond to weather either, it'll just show Google results. I'm running a euroskank kang of cm10.
Same here, my weather card in google now has completely gone. Same on my wifes galaxy S.

Mine started going mad yesterday too. First it started learning me thousands of miles away in Reston, US (looked like it was at some google offices) when I'm in Mexico, then weather card disappeared and won't come back.
Even google maps put me in Reston. GPS Test gave me an accurate location and sometimes when I turn wifi off Maps relocates me correctly but turning on wifi again screws it up.

I have the same problem, Galaxy Nexus 4.1.1. I tried connecting to various wifi networks, and no matter, when I have wifi turned on the "Google's Location Service" puts me in Reston. I live in Calgary, Canada, but it thinks I'm state-side. And Google Now shows me the weather for Reston, and gives me the USA/Canada currency exchange rate because it thinks I'm travelling.
Just noticed this today, and the only way to prevent it is to turn off wifi as far as I can tell. server-side problem as well?

Hey guys. Really really love my new n7 its amazing.
Of course the moment I got it home I rooted it and installed a few roms! You just have to!
I'm currently on paranoid android 2.23 with no kernel change.
My issue is this: my GPS won't lock at all! Google maps with GPS enabled without wifi always returns location unavailable.
I'm almost 100% sure the nexus has GPS so what's the problem?
Anyone having this issue or any solutions?

I can second that, it runs perfectly. Try a clean install.
Try GPS Status from the market and go to tools and erase the location assistant data then download assistance. Also GPS Status also shows you if you are picking up satellites and just not getting a lock. If you get even one lock just be patient and you will get the other ones you need eventually.
Your first lock in awhile is going to take longer because the GPS logic assumes you have changed locations and does a cold start up.
Give it some help and go outside with at least a decent look at the sky keep it in one place.
I haven't had top do this in a long time but sometimes if I had toggled GPS from on to off I wouldn't get a lock but rebooting with GPS toggled on would fix it.
And a few times reflashing the same kernel would fix a flakey GPS

GPS status is pretty good app! Thank you for suggesting it.
GPS status showed 9 sat and 9 locks, but maps didn't work still.
I then did the reset and download and now maps locks me and shows location.
Thank you!
This might be a little off topic but what exactly does the assistant data do?

I only got my n7 a couple of weeks ago and almost immediately updated to 4.2. I didn't notice any issues. Immediately after the 4.2.1 update I keep getting random connection issues. I have to turn wifi off and on to resolve it.

I had the issue.. 32gb version in the US with the sep build. I actually had it prior to to 4.2.1. I ended up going into advanced properties and changing wifi to always on. Drains battery, but fewer need to turn wifi off and back on.

Yes. I have WiFi disconnects and random reboots since the new update .

I use WiFi Fixer downloaded from Google Play. When the connection is dropped it automatically reconnects after a second or two.
Same on my 7 WiFi stops working at random times turn WiFi off and on fixes it, only started after 4.2.1 update

No wifi internet / e-mail / notifications after 4.2.1
I am having a similar issue. Stock Nexus 7, never rooted, installed the 4.2.1 update when it was pushed. Since then I can connect to wifi connections but there is no internet access. While the icon in the upper right has small flashing arrow like data is being sent back and forth, the icon remains gray and no internet-requiring services on the tablet work. I've tried everything that I (and Google Play and Asus support) could think of with no luck.
The only thing they could come up with at the end was to restore the tablet to factory settings. Unfortunately I have application data that I need to back up that I can't access by accessing the internal storage using my laptop (I'm stock, remember?).
So I'm between a rock and a hard place here. Anyone have any suggestions? It was very frustrating when the Asus representative suggested I use the built-in backup and restore feature:
Me: "That requires internet access to work right?
Asus representative: "Oh....right..."
My Wi-Fi on both my Nexus 7's is very slow. They stay connected fine but I'm getting about 150kbps download speeds. I factory reset one of them to no prevail. Anyone have any insight on this or heard of others with this issue? All my other devices work fine on the same Wi-Fi connection and I tried turning everything else off so just the Nexi where connected to see if the speeds are faster, but they aren't. I'm stock on both devices and both are the 16gb version, one older than the other.

Known issue. I logged a bug with Google and there's actually several open bugs reporting wifi issues. So far, none of the bugs are being picked up by google officially.

I've tried this same thing, and as soon as I installed 4.2, WiFi went to sh**. Completely stock.
So turning wifi off then on seems to be the generally excepted quick fix?

Or use Static IPs. That solved it for me. I had to ask my company to provide a reservation for my MAC Address. It's like back in the 90s when Wifi started coming out using the BellLabs/Lucent chipset.
Just got my new Nexus 3 days back.. and today was the first day using the phone not plugging it on and off thorough the day.
noticed something odd. I hadn't opened the maps app.. so it makes it even more strange.
any ideas?
Maps always runs itself. I believe this can be remedied by turning off location settings.

the even more curious part was that the app had run only for 34seconds!
not faced the problem today, hadn't changed any settings. guess it will remain a mystery until it happens again?
Someone was having a similar problem a few weeks back. Try going from maps to navigation and accepting the user agreements etc. Someone found that this solved the maps battery drain.

This was an issue on galaxy nexus when updating from 4.0 to 4.0.1 .all you had to do is to go to maps accept t&c and that's it.

Hey everybody!
So I got my Nexus 4 a few days ago and it's been a blast!!
I first accessed a wifi network at my friends place about 7 kms away from my house. Google maps successfully found my location and everything was fine. My location kept updating as I went from place to place. Everything was working perfectly and then I got home and my location changed to friends place again.
When I stand outside my house, my location is correct but the moment I get inside, it changes back to my friends place!! I did a few factory resets and nothing seems to fix this problem!!
Please help me out guys!!! Thanks!!!

Your not really suppose to use the GPS indoors anyway.
Google Maps is probably downloading the data which points to your friends house.
Try using this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cochibo.gpsstatus
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
First of all, I'm not using gps indoors.
Second, I tried that app but it's no use.
Everything is fine until I step inside my house!!!
Its happened to me after I moved. I think they base location off your routers ssid.
To fix it open maps and press on the blue arrow.
Then press the my location bubble that pops up.
Next select report incorrect location.
It took a few days but my location at my house updated properly.

I just bought my note 3 a couple days ago from costco and today went to use Google nav and cannot get a satellite lock. I've tried in various places outside with no success. A gps test app shows no connectivity with satellites. I've tried with data and wife turned on and given location permissions to Google etc. Nothing works.
I am coming from gnex and I am not helpless but this problem has me stumped. I'll try the Verizon store tomorrow but I hope costco can give me a new note if it's in fact a defect.

Update: took the phone back to Costco and the guy who sold it to me tested it out and couldn't get it to work and they replaced it. The new phone locks on fast. It must be a fluke because I've seen very few gps issues in the note 3 forums.
Thanks to Andrew at Costco for hooking me up again.
