Location Location Location

With my Xperia Z now running KitKat 4.4.2 (also known as Vlad, destroyer of batteries), I've discovered a little oddity with the location.

With my Location settings set to 'High Accuracy' (GPS+WiFi+Cell), by phone seems completely unable to work out where it is, however set it to 'Device only' (GPS alone) it is spot on and fast.

So if you find your phone struggling to come to terms with it's location - try setting Location as 'Device Only'.  For me it has worked even, curiously, indoors.

Also, a fix is coming for xperia z.
New firmware spotted on a c6602 which is the non LTE xperia z, if ported as expected, the small size suggests it's a moderate bug fix update.
