Does anyone notice that Location Services isn't working well on the Facebook for GN? It has me in a totally different location. I tested with Google+, and the location on that application is dead on. So am I the only one with this issue? I'm on the CDMA Verizon Wireless GNex.


Thanks.
 
Works fine for me but I will check back in three days as I will be traveling and I will test it to see

Mine does the same, all other location based services works fine, so it's got to be a Facebook problem. I think I read somewhere that FB uses your IP to locate you, that could be the problem.
 
A lot of apps use location. Facebook will set your location next to your picture or post, like near Chicago (or anywhere, just an example). You may be able to go into the app's settings and disable any location based features. Or else it may be easier to just turn Location services on and let it find you. I always leave Google/VZW services on and my apps seem to locate me just fine. I leave GPS off unless I'm navigating.
