Why don't I have a sign of satellites?

[AC Question]

No sign of satellites

I bought a cheap Chinese tablet, to use exclusively for on-foot navigation with Code Sector Maverick.
However, Maverick showed no sign of picking up any satellites, and GPS Status app reports no satellites and no fix.
On the other hand, Google has had no trouble finding my location, which I imagine it can't do without a GPX fix.

Re: No sign of satellites

Welcome to Android Central! Are you sure the device has a GPS radio? Not all devices do. Use an app like Sensor Box to see if there really is a GPS radio onboard.
