Geo tagging not working

[Guest aafi-rocks]

Hi all..

Iam unable to geotag with my omnia 2..

When i select gps in camera settings, it just says "receving gps signal" and then nothing..

Has any one been able to geotag.. Or is there any settings i need to change..

I have never used it, but I imagine you would have to have a gps fix first. So I suggest get an app that can check the GPS, like Beeline GPS or something similar and use it first until you have a fix. Then you can take a picture and geotagging should work.

Have you tried typing in *#1472365# into their Omnia2?

It brings up some extra gps settings, some of which are similar to settings that can be reached in registry but some are unique.

The main one that was of interest to me was the start up mode of GPS.

Mine was set to cold start which meant that every time i started my tomtom it did so by deleting all previous data.

This meant i was on a cold start each and every time i used it which was why it took forever to lock sometimes.

I have now changed this setting to "hotstart" and my locks are instant.

There are various other settings that can be played with and tried out but this setting alone got rid of the only flaw i could find in the Omnia2.
