Guest Bobby Elliott Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 How come none of the apps that use your location work on the Vega? Whenever I try, it searches for my location but never finds it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bobby Elliott Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 No gps maybe Yes. No GPS and no 3G so I guess that's it. I (stupidly) thought it could use wi-fi but, of course, wi-fi will not provide location info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you ever get your Wayfinder GPS Receiver working correctly using the instructions I gave you in the other topic you raised? If so you would be able to use location services without any problem. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm using the latest cm7 nightly build and location based services work well using WI-FI, pretty accurate too. Proves that its possible on the Vega so must be a limitation of the original ROM.

Mmm Around Me force closes, Google's search page identifies the correct location, will experiment a bit more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I got the Wayfinder to work in Google Maps - but nothing else. I think that this is a limitation of the Vega/Wayfinder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
