E65 - GPS Module LD-3W

Hi
Sorry for my englih.
This is a post to explain how you can solve a problem with GPS modules.
I try maps with a Tomtom Bluetooth module on my new E65 and it works fine.
After this, i bought the Nokia LD module and it was impossible to configure.
Symptoms : maps don't find a GPS Blurtooth module ( but LD was on and previously detected by the phone )
Solution : I need to delete the Tomtom module always present in the Bluetooth menu. After that, i startet the tools\navigato and i was asked "what module". My choice was the LD module, and after that, it was christmas.
The nokia phone remember a Gps module until you erase him.
Don't loose time like me.
I hope i helped with this topic cause the manual is poor.

Hi dhanesh
Unfortunately without knowing from which part of the world you are posting, it is not possible to suggest whether TomTom6, Route66 or Wayfinder7 might be appropriate to your needs.
Of these three mentioned only Wayfinder would offer you a free trial.

Wireless GPS Module LD-3W Indicator Lights

Hi, I've just received a LD-3W GPS module. I've read the user guide and can't find a full description of the indicator lights. Currently the 'Battery charge indicator light' flashes green when the unit is turned on. No other lights show up. Does this mean that it's not picking up GPS signal, nor connecting via bluetooth? If so, what might the problem be? Cheers, Gar.

Hi
I have a similar problem. Sometimes when I turn on the LD-3W it gets sattelite connection right away, but other times nothing happens, it is very frustrating. I have tries with two different LD-3W GPS receivers and two N73 and a E65. The problem is the same for all combinations, thus Im quite sure that its not due to a faulty device or phone.
Sometimes I can make the GPS device get its sattelite connection by resetting it to factory defaults, but it does not always works.
The phones I have been using the GPS device with are normally also connected (or have been earlier in the day) to a computer. I have read somewhere that there are some problems with sterio bluetooth connections, but even if I start bu turning off both the phone and GPS device, the problem persists.
I would expect that more ppl have experienced this problem, have any1 found a reason / solution??

Built in GPS module in iphone 3G/3GS

Hi all,
I have googled but could not find any information.
With regards to built in GPS module in iphone 3G/3GS, i heard some says
* Only 3G/3GS 16GB & 32GB has the built in GPS module (yes or no)
I need to confirm, because i am suspecting my 3G 8GB has no built in GPS module.
Assuming there is, i also could grab any GPS signal, using MotionX lite application to test.
Any advice is appreciated.
Here is the link that i have from apple website.

ALL iPhone 3G and 3GS models sold outside of China have GPS, as shown on the Apple iPhone web site. Only the original iPhone lacks GPS

GPS module for MBP

Hi, is there any USB or Bluetooth GPS module I can like attach to my MBP to use the notebook as a GPS unit?

For a receiver, I use the Holux GPSlim 240:

It connects over Bluetooth, charges via standard USB cable, and works great (I can use it with my cell phone as well).
For software I would second the recommendation fro MacGPS Pro.

GPS module for Macbook Pro

Hi, I am wondering if there are any GPS module for Mac? I am trying to find one that can fit into the express slot of Macbook Pro. Does anyone knows of such a device?

Not necessarily Express, but these solutions are known to be Mac compatible.
Those which are Universal software will work with the MacBook Pro.

LD-4W Buetooth GPS Module + 5530XM??

Hey folks, i just have a quick question.
Is it's possible to use the LD-4W Bluetooth GPS Module on a 5530 XM
I don't want to buy a 5800XM because the 5530 is better (faster, smaller, ...)
But what i go miss is the GPS function (what the 5800 does have)
So i'm planning to also buy a LD-4W so i can use my cellphone as a GPS.
Does anyone know iff those 2 will work together?
Thx already

GPS Bluetooth Module LD-4W
Nokia 5530XM V30.0.009
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The Nokia 5800 as you know has an inbuilt gps unlike the 5530
Ovi Or Nokia Maps (whichever you wish to call it) can be installed on the Nokia 5530.
The LD-3W does work on the 5530 even though not on the compatibility list so i presume the LD-4W will also work however it would be;
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.

E52 and LD-4W Bluetooth GPS module ?

Does the Nokia E52 support the LD-4W Bluetooth GPS module ?
I'm aware of the builtin A-GPS in the E52, however, it seems using the LD-4W for GPS has benefits in terms of GPS accuracy as well as conseving the phones battery.
Reinhard

On the E71 i use the LD-4W.... and i can confirm that accuracy is much better... and time to first fix is much lower. Only few problems with sometimes unstable Bluetooth connection... but this is an issue i have with all bluetooth connections, so it seems to be the phone......

Is it officially possible to install a USIM HSDPA/GPS module on my TX2-1014AU?

Hi,
Is it officially possible to install a USIM HSDPA/GPS module on my TX2-1014AU?
As a wonderful multi-touch notebook, it will be perfect to be able to use GPS and having a USIM HSDPA on it without having a USB dangle hanging on it. (Its wonderful but abit heavy and hard to handle~)

treadlefish could you post the wifi info from "lspci -vnn"? Then I can check if we have the same card.

E70, GPS module and maps

Hi,
I intent to buy a Nokia GPS module LD-3W and I would like to know which maps (beside Nokia Maps) can I "upload/store/use" with this phone (I live in CEE - Central Eastern Europe - and would like to have maps for this region to)?
Since this is not my field... what else do I need to run navigation (turn by turn), some application?
Best regads.

Lot of offers around... For me, the best ones, are Tomtom and Route66. See which of those have better maps for your region. Others... Navigon, Wayfinder, nDrive, etc.

E61 - GPS Module and GOLF GPS Software

Hello Team - I want to buy a GPS system for distance measurement on my local golf course. Does anyone have any experience of the GPS modules (LD 1W or LD3W) for the E61? I see they claim 5-10 M accuracy, but that isn't really good enough for a Golf Course.
Also - in addition to the GPS module I would need to download the specialist GPS/Golf Course applicationi. There are plenty (eg IGOLF, SKYCADDIE). Does anyone have any experience of these - also on the E61.
I am wondering whether to use the GPS module + Golf App (bit cheaper) or just opt for the separate tool. Or not bother at all!
Any views or advice appreciated.
Cheers

Hi rolandrat
You are right to have reservations concerning accuracy as the following factors have to be taken into account:
Ionospheric effects ± 5 meter
Ephemeris errors ± 2.5 meter
Satellite clock errors ± 2 meter
Multipath distortion ± 1 meter
Tropospheric effects ± 0.5 meter
Numerical errors ± 1 meter or less
What may have been recorded as landmark one day can have shifted postion considerably on another.

Nokia 6301 and Nokia LD-3W Wireless GPS Module

Hi all!
I have the Nokia 6301.
From what I read on this page (http://www.nokia.ca/A4488459), the Nokia 6301 supports the Nokia LD-3W GPS Module. Correct me if I'm wrong but the phone doesn't supports the Nokia Maps.
What would be the best application for using the GPS module with this phone? I'd like an application that already includes the maps and don't required much "air time". ;-)
Regards,
Jean

Hi kaad
The LD-3W is a SIRF Star III chipset so TTFF=Time to First Fix will always be a lot more rapid, certainly if you are not going to utilize A-GPS feature in v12.0.013
I first used one with Route66 on a N70 and was very handy as it used same battery as N70. If you are using TomTom6 with it on a N80 you get a battery indication of power remaining in LD-3W in application screen. It is expensive but more resistant to dropping than quite a few of the cheaper receivers.
There is an option in Nokia Maps settings on N95 to use "external GPS" which needs to be enabled.

GPS module ?

Hi.
I have a 110W and I am very happy with it :-)
But, I have no idea how the GPS is to be used. Various locations mentioned 'GPS module' optional.
But I can't seem to find where I get a 'GPS module'. Is it an accessory? Anyone know where to get one?

I think something like that is what's needed.
My problem is I have reinstalled windows but the GPS drivers don't get installed automatically from the driver package.
Following the above advise I have installed the Broadcom GPS Location Sensor in Device Manager by going to Actions and Add Legacy Hardware.
I still couldn't get GPS recognised on the computer (I am using Simple GPS which does a port scan looking for GPS devices).
Then I figure I need a COM port as there are none in the Device Manager.
I installed a standard COM port and it came up with port 3, yay I thought but still no luck.
Further under COM ports I found Broadcom NMEA Port, I tried installing that but all it does is BSOD the computer. NUTS!
Any ideas?
Can someone post what they have under Sensors and Ports in the Device Manager?
Cheers.
