Guest Jophster Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 Hi It seems that my GPS does not work. Here are the symptoms: 1. I have to have my Phone on in CommManager for the GPS to even be recognised in iGo8 as COM3. It then does not establish any kind of connection or move my pointer to Cardiff. It stays in the starting location (Paris) 2. When the phone is off the GPS is not recognised at all, both manually or automatically. Any ideas as to why I can't get my GPS to work?

Guest lastnikita Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 GPS needs GSM on. Once iGo is launched, just go outdoor and wait half an hour, don't let your device shutdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stood in the middle of my field and kept the thing on and it did the trick. Hopefully won't have to do that again! Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
