Help Add a location

On the home page of my cell phone, where the default Weather app that comes with the phone is located, it says Add a location. When I tap it, it is doing auto locate and just spinning round and round. I went to Google maps just to check, and the right location shows up there. Any help appreciated. Thanks.
 
I'm in another town now, in a McD's doing some internet stuff on the phone. I go back to the Home screen and see that the Location and temp for that town are showing up. Maybe in my home location the signal isn't strong enough to pick the Location. Strange though, because when I installed a different Weather app at home, it picked up the location right away. Anyway, I'm going to say that this is resolved right now.
 
In the phone should be some options of GPS accuracy, aiding location, calibration and so on..try in doing that..let me know..
 
XB, It's been working perfectly all day. It changes Locations as I move around from one area to another... just as you would expect it to do. It's almost like the app needed a certain amount of time before it finally kicked in. Thanks for your suggestion.. I appreciate it!
 
One more thing I forgot to suggest..if at any giving moment you are trying to get the GPS to be exactly where is supposed to be..per say you are lost and trying to find your way back to the freawa yor something like that..make a number 8 with your phone about 5 times..that will tagle it.
