My Location in Sense

I take it My Location in Sense updates location using AGPS, not actual GPS satellites? When I'm at work, my location updates just fine. When I am at home, it will not update. So I'm guessing the tower near my home does not support this type of updating or whatever. Now my ? is this: I have added my city in using the weather database app. How can I remove My Location from Sense home page and have my city display instead?

Correct it does use Assisted GPS for the location.

Go to the world clock and select your city to remove my location from the clock.

Actually I found that this weekend. Thanks for the help though.

I'm pretty sure this is not accurate. It appears to use IP address geolocation, since it works fine with the cellular radio (which is needed for the A part of AGPS) turned off. With Airave femtocells, it has a tendency to geolocate the phone very far away from the actual location.
