location displaying UK instead of town.

hi, anyone got any ideas why in Google latitude and weather widget when I set it to use gps to detect my location it just displays UK instead of my town? if I set latitude to manual and say to use current location it picks up my town fine. I am confused, tried just about everything.

anyone any ideas?

Have you tried using the wireless/mobile networks and not GPS to find location in the weather widget?

yeah, tried both. as I type this its displaying town although I haven't changed anything. I am confused

unusual problem with location caching.

Hey Guys,
I've had my Galaxy Nexus for a while now, lately the browser cannot find my location, G+ (the app cannot find my location for nearby posts OR check in), facebook app can't find my location either, nor does twitter or any other client. I do get a decent lock on (with just data/wifi based location) in Google Maps.
Why is it that the other apps are failing to do so? Is anyone else facing this? or does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks

Did you make sure your GPS is enabled and in settings you are allowing it to be used in apps? Just checking...

No gps is disabled, I'm talking about network based location which the app fails to get. How do I check if my settings are allowing the apps to use location data?

Have you set all three options under localization services?

Weather Widget

Anyone know how to change the weather widget came with the ION to search for GPS location (moved with device) instead of a fixed location ? I have tried out a few weather widgets in the Play Market, still like the default - simple and elegant. Thanks.

You have to have Google location services enabled. Took me a year to figure that out on my Play.

I don´t think you can with the Ion widget. I had to install the Weather Channel program, when you configure its widget you can set it for current location. But the widget sucks, so now I use it from the App menu only.

Google Now Commands

Google Now works with network (and GPS) on all the time. To activate, long press home button and 'G' point (the middle button), use menu and parameter, here you can active google now. You must also activate Search history in your google account or google now parameter.
After you activate google now, on parameter you have new entry for what to use.
Google now is a sort of assistant, he can show you the wheater based on your location, the next appointment based on the calendar, the next show, based on your internet search, and so on.
But there is no widget, so it's as useful as it's intend to be.

When i want to send email,,nothing,,google now just open google search with text ..send email etc...So how to send emails with voice?
Tnx

In fact for me works only google search with voice and weather card.

Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app

There are 2 locations I changed the language:
1. Go to system settings > Language and Input > Language > choose English US
2. When in Google Now press Menu > Settings > Voice > Language > choose English US

Try AIVC (Alice) from google play its free it works exactly the same as s voice but I think its much better it does what your after and sends emails or sms or makes calls sets alarms checks weather etc all by your voice.
Just install it and double tap the home key to activate.
Anygood?

Problem with the Play Store

Hi!
Today morning I had a problem with my Play Store, it seems very strange because yesterday it wasn't like this, I noticed that it is updated but there are too many blank spaces (gray in this case) and too many icons are missing, any idea of this? Does anybody has the same problem or just me?

You have an internet connection problem. Contact your isp provider

I don't think its internet because I have tried even 3 different Wi-Fi connections, and still getting the same error, also with 3g data of my carrier Play Store doesn't show off completely, I even reinstalled it and still the same, any idea?
