ABOUT GPS RECEIVER IN NOKIA 6210

I only want to know that can i grab the data of gps on my pc by using GPS receiver of NOKIA 6210...If possible how??...I need a GPS receiver and if search get over on this mobile phone i dont have to buy a GPS receiver separately...

You can use GPS receiver of NOKIA 6210 to get information from satellite.
But for receiving satellite signal you need to keep your mobile outside in open sapce , then only mobile's internal GPS receiver able to receive information.
Now to get information on your PC; you can try out to get it on PC using Bluetooth.
But I think for your requirement ; External GPS receiver would work.

  • Nokia N97 + BT GPS Receiver

    Hey all,
    Well I had my old N73 with my Receiver and my version of tomtom and it worked perfectly. Now Ive got the N97 and Tomtom, Its hard for the phone to even detect my receiver. It finds it, and then just sits at connecting to GPS device...
    Ive purchased Garmin XT which makes use of the internal GPS which is nice but the internal GPS is too slow at obtaining a signal. Garmin cannot detect my GPS Receiver. Is there something I'm doing wrong?
    Anyone here using a GPS BT Receiver with any GPS software and its working properly?

    @sargerx
    The bottom line is there could be loads of reasons why your device doesn't work properly.
    It's an interesting point about the bluetooth connection though. Although, when I paired my GPS device with my phone, I set it to connect automatically, is doesn't. Bluetooth is always on, in my N97, and when I go into my car and turn on the ignition, the N97 connects automatically with my car radio. So my phone / satnav device produces its sound via my car speakers, and acts as my handfree device too (there is a microphone in the radio)
    However, when I switch on the GPS device, it doesn't automatically connect to the phone. The bluetooth connection is only made when I open the application on the phone. This triggers the bluetooth connection, and waits for a GPS signal. So the External GPS device can be connected via bluetooth, but not receiving a signal. It will hold the bluetooth connection for ever, even if the phone is not receiving a GPS signal.
    So it's important to distinguish between the bluetooth connection, and the receiving of GPS information.
    You've not said what display there is on the device, and what the device displays when it's switched on, making a bluetooth connection, receiving a GPS signal, etc. My device has 2 leds, which light constantly or flash, and in different colour combinations, to tell you whether the battery is high or low, whether the bluetooth connection is made, whether it has received all the info it needs, and is delivering the info.
    What do you see on the device when you  switch on the GPS? Do you have any display at all? Unless you have some means of knowing what the device is doing at any one time, whether or not you have a phone trying to connect to it, you may never know if it's possible to use it with your phone.
    Have you tried pairing the device with a PC? If you can manage to do this, you can probably get the name of the device on the bluetooth info box. Then you want to search for a manual.
    The GPS (probably) looks like a "black box", but it can (probably) be reset via a PC, and may already have had its settings changed. There is software available which can change all the settings in the GPS. If somebody has already done this, you may never get it to work. It would only require for someone to change the baud rate for the main serial connection from, say, 19,200bps to 38,400bps to prevent communication.
    You need to start by describing the "display" on the device, and its various states.
    By the way, I use the built-in Nokia Maps, and also Garmin Mobile XT, both with the internal and external GPS's.

  • Nokia LD-4W GPS receiver with 5800 XM

    Is Nokia LD-4W GPS receiver compatible with Nokia 5800? Is it better / more accurate than 5800 built-in GPS receiver?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    LD-3W:
    65g (still feels really light)
    15 hours operating time
    7 Days Standby
    It is also a nice small size being compact and light
    LD-4W:
    31g
    11 hours operating time
    4 days standby
    The only real thing the LD-4W is better than the LD-3W with is looks. Personally-especially as its cheaper-I would go for the LD-3W.

  • Want to know how the GPS works on nokia 5800?

    Hi, are there any documentation explaining the working principle of how gps on nokia 5800 actually works? I want a kind of in-depth understanding...Thanx in advance.

    Network based positioning is the fastest, but most inaccurate. Basically, it looks at what cell tower you're connected to, and approximates your location to be the location of that tower. The phone will use this FIRST (if you have enabled it), because it gives you an approximiate position while you wait for GPS to work.
    Integrated GPS is the actual GPS receiver built into your phone.  It receives signals from the network of GPS satellites and calculates your position.  Due to the inherent design of the civilian GPS system, it takes time for the receiver to see enough satellites to figure out where you are.  Because sometimes this time can be 5 minutes or more, the cell companies developed Assisted GPS.
    Assisted GPS (AGPS) is just regular GPS, helped out by a server on the internet. Your phone will take partial GPS data (not enough to get a fix on its own), and send that data to a server (in our case supl.nokia.com).  The server knows a LOT more about the exact locations of GPS satellites at any given time, so based on partial information it can compute a very good approximation of your location.  This happens very quickly because a server has a much more powerful processor, and many more resources, than your phone (to put it simply).  The amount of data actually sent is very very small (less than 1KB every time).  AGPS helps out in getting a position fix quickly when the gps receiver hasn't been used for a while, or when you are in an area without great GPS reception.
    So the order of methods used by the phone in your case is as follows. First it will give you an "approximate" position using Network Based Positioning. This will happen almost instantly.  Then the phone will immediately get to work trying to get a GPS fix, and will use the AGPS server if you have allowed it to.  Note that you must have an internet plan with your cell provider for AGPS to work, since it sends data to supl.nokia.com which is on the internet.
    Hope that clarifies things,
    Ravi

  • Problem of N73 latest firmware vs GPS receiver

    Hi guys, I just upgraded my N73 to latest version(V4.0726.2.01))and I find a serious problem. The GPS software R66 in my N73 can never recive the singal from GPS receiver(NAVIBE732) again! I just wonder whether it is NOKIA to change the parameters that force NOKIA mobile phone only can be connected to their own GPS receiver, such as LD-3W! What do you think about it? Is there anybody have solution?

    As far as i know, there is no way to use other GPS Receivers than Nokia ones, with the new firmware. Hope it gets fixed soon.

  • Few questions before buying a GPS receiver

    Hello everyone,
    I have nokia E63 and I have few questions about the Maps feature:
    1. Is it free or do I have to subscribe to Maps?
    2. How can I tell if my there are maps available for my country?
    3. Does any bluetooth GPS receiver work, or do I have to buy something specific?
    4. After I buy a GPS receiver, do I have to pay something for my cellular company? or GPS + Maps is enough?
    Thanks in advance!
    Koby

    Hi kobyaizer
    1) Determining your position or planning a route is free, but you have to pay extra for voice guided navigation although a free trial is offered pricing available here:http://europe.nokia.com/A41441532
    2) Regional maps here:http://europe.nokia.com/explore-services/maps/download/nokia-map-loader
    3) Any Bluetooth external GPS should suffice.
    4) Bear in mind two processes at work, Nokia Maps application in which you can set "go-online at start up" to "No" and "Assisted GPS" which can be disabled if you are using an external GPS as would be superfluous and in this scenario you do not have to pay anything. Assisted GPS if enabled downloads 2-5 kb's of data for a positional fix which without a data plan can cost about 0.07GBP in UK.
    If you require any further information then please ask.

  • Is there something wrong with the N97's GPS receiv...

    Okay, i have 3 Nokia phones and a Samsung, with integrated GPS,
    N97, E7, Lumia 925, and Galaxy note 4.
    The N97 was not being used at all, it was simply lying in a drawer. Thought I'd charge up the N97, and use it as a GPS device,saving battery on the other devices.
    But for some reason, the N97 takes forever to get a GPS fix.
    I keep all the four devices side by side,
    Within about 2 minutes, the Lumia and the Note 4 get a fix and show my exact position on the map.
    Within about 3 to 4 minutes, the E7 gets a fix.
    But the N97 just sits there, searhching for satellites. It gets a fix after about 10 minutes, but then again, the moment i take it to the car and start driving, it loses the fix and starts searching for satellites again. This doesn't happen with my other devices.
    Is the N97 GPS weak by design? Or has my device gone bad as I haven't used it for so long?
    Is there something I can do to make it better?
    Thanks.

    If I stop data connection on the Lumia 925 for a month, will it start taking 20 minutes to get a GPS fix?
    This is called Time to First Fix …
    If you do not use GPS for several weeks, and you do not allow Internet in that time, the GPS receiver has to download the almanch again. In newer phones, Nokia fixed this issue by enhancing the GPS receiver software a lot – it downloads even when the screen is dimmed and uses WLAN as support – consequently it won’t take 20 minutes with a Nokia Lumia. Anyway, back to your Nokia N97: If you manage to download the almanch and use the Nokia N97 at least on a weekly basis for navigation, you get instant GPS fix, even without a SIM.
    To download the almanch, I did:
    Nokia N97 » Menu » Settings » Phone » Display » Light sensor » set to minimum
    not to burn-out the display edges
    Nokia N97 » Menu » Maps » Options » Tools » Settings » Navigation » Backlight » Always on
    return to the map
    do not open any menu – that would restarts the almanch download on a Nokia N97
    do not put Nokia Maps to the background – that would restart the … you got it
    put the phone to a location with open sky (in all directions)
    wait at least 25 minutes.
    Then, the alamanch should be downloaded two times. Now, the time to first fix should be within less than a minute even if you have one of those Nokia N97 with broken GPS hardware. By the way, you could go for a pay-as-you-go SIM (Prepaid). The alamanch download is much less than one megabyte (MB) and should not be that expensive. I really recommend A-GPS with a Nokia N97, especially if you do not use GPS every week and/or you start your jouneys at locations where the Nokia N97 did not finish its last navigation. I used it without a SIM for several years. However, compared to A-GPS and/or modern phones, it was …

  • GPS Chips on Nokia - dBm?

    If I am not mistaken, phones like 5800, N85, N79, etc has the [B]NL5350[/B] GPS chip but [B]how many dBm works?[/B]
    And models like N82, N78, N96 use the [B]NL5300 GPS[/B] chip not? [B]how many dBm works?[/B]
    Thk!

    Nokia has not published any detailed specifications that'd state which GPS receiver chips are used on various models.
    I don't know how easy or difficult it'd be to identify the chips if you dismantle the phones (often the actual chip markings do not identify which/whose chips are in the phone).

  • N95 GPS receiver is NOT a SIRFF quality receiver

    Dear all,
    I have at last decided to claim for a money back for the N95 ánd for the subscription to 3y for Nokia Maps(which i could never use, since the poor GPS receiver never gets a lock with any satellites!)
    Before you ask: yes, i upgraded firmware, yes i did even have wifi turned on in an attempt to 'help' the N95 do the routing calculation, and yes I turned off any other interfering applications. And, no: the N95 never gets a fix without first making me wait over 45 minutes (by then I am usually already at my destination)
    Interesting to know is that Nokia callcenter declared 'to have nothing to do with Nokia Maps Subscription', even though I subscribed becáuse I wanted to enable voice guided routing with the N95- still: if I wanted thát money back, they warned me I had to go get it at the Maps people that delivered it to us customers. So much for service. So much for Nokia!!

    Dear all,
    I bought the phone less than 28 days ago, but Tmobile won't refund me my money since:
    a) they only do refunds within 7 days(and not 28 days)
    b) they are not officially aware of 'malfunctioning GPS' and therefore deem the phone as a working phone (basically shift the problem back to Nokia as the producer and me as the consumer)
    I absolutely understand that the company behind Nokia maps is NOT Nokia itself. However, it ís through Nokia's website that i was 'urged' to link up to Nokia Maps and subscribe if I wanted voice guidance (as opposed to no voice at all). So i understand the Nokia maps people have nothing to do in this: their software wórks, and THEY can't help it if the Nokia GPS doesnt perform well!!
    However, I ám tricked in subscribing to Nokia Maps -by- Nokia (its website), believing (back then) that it would really help me in starting using the Navigator feature.
    Had I known that the GPS receiver was of such poor quality, it goes without saying that I would have never subscribed to the 3y Nokia Maps voice navigator, let alone buy the phone N95 itself.
    So, I dó think Nokia has brought the whole issue down to me, and I do think I was tricked in buying 2 products I would never have if I had known that the N95 wouldn't get to navigate in the first place.

  • GPS system for Nokia 9300

    I am looking for a full GPS system for my Nokia 9300, which will give me voice navigation down to specific postcodes within the UK and downloadable up-to-date maps/navigation database. I had my eye on Route 66 Mobile but it's specification states it's only available for the S60 series; even the latest Route 66 Mobile version 7.
    I'm now really confused as to what I should look for. I need a complete system i.e. GPS receiver and software, because at the moment I only have the phone. As a very last resort, I do have an old Nokia 6630 I could use as a dedicated navigation system, but really I want to use my Nokia 9300 for everything.

  • Nokia 6210 Navigation - license purchase

    Hi, i'm from Malaysia.i'm using Nokia 6210 Navigation. I'm going to Hong Kong & Macau, i've purchased the license for Hong Kong & Macau - Drive & Walk. After the purchasing, i received a receipt through SMS, but there is no license code for me where i find out there is a "enter license code" in my phone. Should i enter the license code to activate it?
    How do i know the license is activated in Hong Kong? Am i only notice when i'm start using in Hong Kong?
    Please help me.
    Thanks
    Saxon

    Hi,
    You can check wether the license has been purchased correctly by Opening the Maps application and going to Options > Extras > My License.
    Your license should be listed here. If it is not, i suggest Updating (can be done from the Options menu within My Licenses).
    You will need to allow the device to go online to check the license server, but it should then acnowledge your purchase.
    If you still have problems, please send me a private message with your IMEI (*#06#) and i will investigate further.

    Hi !
    I`ve tried to upgrade my Nokia 6210 Navigator from Nokia maps 2.0 to Ovi maps 3.01 but it
    doesn´t seems to work.
    If i try to upgrade it with the old Nokia map updater it just says: Cannot get enough information about the phone unspecified error
    Can anyone tell me if this is possible.
    I also get a error message when i try to use this file that ovikovi posted (http://static.s2g.gate5.de/nokiamaps-client/nokia_ maps_3.01_09wk44_b01_s60_3.1_lm_rom.sis)
    The error massage that shows up in the phone is:  It doesn´t work to install this file, the unit is built in!
    And in Ovi Suite it says: The file is in use. Another application is using  nokia_ maps_3.01_09wk44_b01_s60_3.1_lm_rom.sis
    I´ve also tried to uninstall the version og Nokia maps that is installed on the phone but that doesn´t seems to be an option !
    Any one who has a clue of something that can solve my problem.

    Hi interior1
    Provided that you have a generous data plan, you could always try a Java based application such as Nav4All with an external Bluetooth GPS receiver on your S40 device:http://www.nav4all.com/languages/enguk/handset_nokia_6280.php?m=6280
    On S60 devices mapping data can be stored locally to obviate need to download data with associated costs involved.

  • E90 - Built in GPS receiver availability for other...

    As per title, I would like to know if someone has tried to use other navigation apps (like TomTom 6 or Route66 7) in the E90, using only the internal GPS receiver, in lieu of the default Nokia application.
    I had a TomTom 5 in my previous 9300 paired with BT GPS SirfIII receiver.
    Now, I own a Garmin Nuvi 360 for normal car navigation so I really do not need a professional navigation software in the E90 but only need a handy back up solution.
