Not specifically, but can you answer the following questions:

"Operating system?

Browser?

Do your other location apps (GPS, Maps) give your location correctly?

Have you given your browser permission to pass your location to Fab?

Etc.?"

From above:

While other users will be willing to help, they'll need some basic info!

Probably running 4.3, if you're using the stock browser click your 3 vertical dots, go to settings and there probably a privacy and security option, then in there there'll be an option for location services. Enable it and clear the locations. Log out and in. Choose to share your location and it should kick in.

"Mine not workin either on samsung 4"

Ok sorry for the length of this but it covers all the basics if your using the stock browser.

Pull down the notifications tab and press the cog button to bring up the settings menu.

select more

select location services in the permisions setting.

whats ticked ?, you need access to my location ticked and at least the use wireless networks ticked.

(You can use the gps option as well but be prepared for a big increase in power drain and a shorter battery life)

Open the S4 browser

Press the menu button on your s4 to bring up the options, scroll to settings select that.

select privacy and security

scroll to location access, is enable loaction access ticked, if not tick it.

select clear location access,

Fully close the browser, not just minimize, as touch wiz can get jippy if you dont "start fresh"

Log back onto fab and try whos near

should get a "this site wants to know your location msg" and choose allow.

may take a min or 2 for msg to pop up, so just back out of whos near, perv... i mean browse, and try again.

should all be golden and working after that
