First time GPS


Recommended Posts

I have just installed TomTom on my new TyTN, following the guide in this forum.

The install went fine, but I have had no luck getting a signal. I am using the inbuild NMEA GPS. Should I use QuickGPS first time I am using the GPS, or just wait for it. The LED is blinking orange as it should, but after half an hour, still no signal was found. What can I do?

Please help

Are you getting a clear view of the sattelites? It won't logon indoors.

I did it indoors all 4 times I have tried, but I laid the phone at the window.

I am getting no messages, it just keeps on searching... I have in Danish, so... But it says: Waiting for valid GPS signal

OK, so you just need to go outside and get a good view of the sky! :(

Also, make sure you have run QuickGPS...

Or if its too cold to go outside, make sure the window is aimed in the right direction (where I live its south)
