Location problems?

My phone can not determine my location over WiFi or mobile internet. It does not work with the HTC weather widget on blinkfeed (just constantly shows no weather data available and annoys the **** out of me) Google maps or Google news and weather. All settings have been configured the only thing I haven't tried is GPS.
Im really annoyed as location apps were great on my s3 and my last HTC phone the hd2.
Anyone suggest what might be causing the problem? I wouldnt mind manually typing my location in but that doesn't alter (or at least I can not find a way to) the blinkfeed weather widget
Any help appreciated, I have had a good look through this forum so sorry if this is duplicated elsewhere.

I did have a problem in the first 24 hours of use - no location showing. Eventually I checked all locations settings were <ON> and then ran maps. For the first time I saw the GPS icon flashing and I did get a location.
Hope that helps....

Yeah a hard reset sorted it. Don't know what happened the first time, all settings were exactly the same as the second time I set it up, weird.

I had the same problem. Made sure location services were all checked and then just soft resetted and it finally appeared.

Disable the Fast Boot option in Settings. Then reboot.
Worked for me.

I've tried all above, but no success.
It worked for 10+ days, then last 4 days I only get "MY LOCATION" or "CURRENT LOCATION" in BF or Weather app.
It was very good first ten days, and extremly precise. I'm still on .13 version.
Anybody still having this issue or similar??

It's a known Google problem with about 6 threads here discussing the problem. Google is working on a fix.

Disabling Fast Boot worked for me too

My Blinkfeed only has United States option
Im in the UK and I am pretty sure my One is an import. It only has United States in the Blinkfeed drop down so I get no UK topics and services.
Does anyone know a solution?
Much appreciation

Thanks

Go to location in settings, untick everything then renable everything. Press "agree". Reboot.
See if that helps.

[Q] Google Maps Now Requires a New Setting?

On my old device, the HTC Evo 3D, the setting "Location & Google Search" under the Location setting in the Settings menu did NOT need to be checked to use the GPS in Google Maps, Google Nav, etc. The case still remains the same even after my phone was disabled and I use it via WiFi.
On my new HTC One however, that setting NEEDS to be turned on, otherwise it doesn't work and says I need to enable it. Both of my phones have the same version of Google Maps.
Can anybody chime in? Thanks!

Just enable it?

Change your language to English US. Simple Google search would've sufficed honestly

Are you in android 4.2.2 or 4.1.2?
If you're on android 4.2.2 use a swipe to the high on the home button.
If you're on 4.1.2 double tap on home button
try this!

On my stock T-Mobile, holding the home button will bring up Google Now.
EDIT: Mine also has a widget for Google now, I keep that on my home page. However, I still have to first open the program by holding the menu key after a reboot. After that I can simply touch the widget.

[Q] Stopping Google search on hardware button

Is there a way to turn off the Google search when you press a hardkey? I find my thumb hovering over the hard key and then it will just come up. Is there any way to turn it off?

Delete/disable Google Now

Well i have turned Google Now off, so the only thing that comes up is the search box that would have been google now window. I am asking where i would go to do that, i have searched all over the place in the menus and settings and can't seem to see where to turn it off at.

Go to Settings, search for apps icon , then select all apps. Find google search from that list and stop service and delete it.
