E71 GPS Stopped Working After 3.03 (10wk11) Instal...

Had I known attempting this Map update would blow out my GPS, I wouldn't have done it.
My current software version in my Straight Talk E71 is 500.21.009.  I am a Mac user.
I downloaded this file in hopes of updating my GPS Map software: nokia_maps_3.03_10wk11_b04_s60_3.1_rom.Nocs.sis
I saved that file on my mem card and installed the 3.03 maps onto my E71 using Nokia Multimedia Transfer v1.4.2 for Snow Leopard. I did this over Bluetooth. I power cycled and I cannot use my GPS with full 3G bars. It cannot find "My Position" after driving around town with my E71 searching for hours.  I see a red dot in the middle of the screen (now dark screen since it's dark here).
When I go to GPS data on the E71, I see "Searching for GPS satellites", "Calculating GPS data".
When I look at the Satellite Status, I see mostly black bars showing numbers 5, 2, 12, 25, 26 (not sure what this means).
My Positioning Methods/Settings show: Assisted GPS & Integrated GPS checked.
My Positioning Server Access Point show: Tracfone Internet
My Positioning Server Address show: supl.nokia.com
I have also attempted to update my US maps via Bluetooth using the Nokia Map Loader tool only to have it not complete the download.  It freezes or crash every time. When it crashes and I force quit, once I restart, I will see a crash log.
I want to also mention that the first time I tried updating the US maps via Bluetooth using the Nokia Map Loader, I believe my maps were deleted. 
I have also deleted my CITIES folder and qf file from my memory card, disconnected from Bluetooth, ran Ovi Maps and saw a message that said something was downloading.
I reconnected via Bluetooth then attempted to update maps yet again in the Nokia Map Loader. It now just sits showing "Looking for map data on your phone".
This has been an over 48 hr ordeal. 
What is the fix for at least getting my GPS to work again?
Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

This process and experience is ridiculous at this point after numerous, unsuccessful tries.
Update:
Yet again I deleted the \cities folder & qf file from my memory card.  I ran Ovi Maps, my cities folder was re-created, I went to My Position and got the expected red dot. Closed Ovi Maps, enabled Bluetooth, connected with the NMT tool then re-ran the Nokia Map Loader.
Surprisingly, the Nokia Map Loader appeared to connect fine with my device without error. When I selected USA Maps, the tool started downloading, got past the half way point and I saw as message stating "unpacking files".  It was actively copying whatever part of the downloaded files it had grabbed to my memory card.  Great, or so I thought, as this is as far as I've gotten in the last 48 hrs.
I then got an unexpected error in the Nokia Map Loader and the app closed. The error log is in the attached text file on this thread. (EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV))
I restarted the Nokia Map Loader and got the same error to reappear immediately but it re-connected with my device. This is the only app crashing like this on my Mac and giving this error.  Previously, the error was EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT).
Now I'm quite annoyed that the Nokia Map Loader does NOT pick up where it left off in the download process before the app crashed. Therefore, I'm attempting to re-download US Maps for the final time, all 1.5GB of it.  Hopefully it will complete this time.
Not a good Nokia experience regarding mapping updates at all, at least in the Mac environment.

  • Don't know what to do or who to ask??? GPS stopped working after 4.4.2 Kitkat update.

    Don't know what to do or who to ask??? GPS stopped working after 4.4.2 Kitkat update.
    I have been on the phone multiple times with Verizon, visited multiple stores and still getting different answers with every different person I talk to...
    Since the 4.4.2 update, my phone and my wife's phone (14 or 15 month old SIII's) that worked perfect a couple weeks ago no longer know where they are 95% percent of the time... Location cannot be found and GPS satellites cannot be seen (sometimes after searching for 10 - 20 minutes they will lock on).
    And it's not just Google maps, it is all apps that need location (ie. gps status and toolbox, weather channel, etc...)
    Google maps has us in the right location 50% of the time  but i think that has more to do with 4g and wifi (although i always know the weather and traffic conditions in the next town over now).
    Navigation will set up fine in Google maps until you actual move the car. Then it updates location every couple minutes, but usually a couple streets over from where I actually am. Maybe 1 out of every four or five times I try it, it will start working about 15 minutes after I started it (then work flawlessly, so it can actually work sometimes). But if you end the process and start over to see if it really "works", back to square one with it not knowing its location all over again...
    I obviously did all the normal trouble shooting fixes with the battery and sim card removals and even did a "recommended factory data reset" on my phone with no luck. After this didn't work I stopped by another verizon store yesterday that has "tech services" that I was told could run some sort of diagnostics on my phone. After I showed the tech all the screen shots i have taken of what was happening while driving, he said it is a software problem and a very common one at that.
    I was told I should either buy new phones or switch to the edge program where i can get a new phones. These don't seem like very fair solutions to me considering before the 4.4.2 update our phones worked perfect and they are both in almost perfect condition after 14 or 15 months...
    Will there be a fix to this??? Is it a Samsung problem??? Should I be contacting them???

    If it is 3GS, you can update it to iOS 5 and it will work.

  • Excel colors stopped working after MS Office 2007 installed

    We use OLE services to create excel spreadsheets and color some of the data cells. For this we use class: I_OI_SPREADSHEET, method: SET_COLOR. The colors are set via an integer parameter but stopped working after we upgraded to MS Office 2007. Now all the cells are colorless. I've searched google, SDN and OSS Notes but can't find any explanation. Does anyone have any ideas on this?

  • ILok Stops Working After Leopard 10.5 Install

    After years of trouble-free service, including after software upgrade and OS upgrades through 10.3.9, my iLok no longer functions correctly. It stopped working immediately after installing Leopard on my G4.
    When I start the software requiring the iLok license, MachFive (a music sampler plug-in and stand-alone program), I get a message that software is missing and am directed to the Pace website where I can download the latest driver and install it.
    I have installed, uninstalled and reinstalled the latest driver repeatedly but with no change. The iLok still doesn't work.
    I checked it on the iLok website and the licenses are still properly installed on the dongle.
    Other things I have tried:
    I unplugged all other USB devices except the keyboard and mouse and intalled the iLok directly into the back of the G4. No change.
    I upgraded the host software, Digital Performer, to DP6. No change.
    I have reinstalled MachFive. No change.
    I have tried opening both MachFive 1 and MachFive 2.01. Same result. No Change.
    Has anyone heard of, or encountered this problem?
    Does anyone have a suggestion or solution?
    I would greatly appreciate your help.
    Thanks very much,
    Jon

    Thanks so much for your very quick reply.
    I am waiting for MOTU support to get back to me. We'll see what they have to say.
    I have had extensive e-mail conversations with iLok support. They were very helpful in sorting out some other strange problems I was having, but when it comes to the problem of the license not loading, their perspective is that, if you have the latest driver, anything that doesn't work is not their responsibility. We've all seen this attitude before, of course.
    Your perspective on MOTUs recommendations is interesting. I will look into it further. To their defense (and credit), I will say that the much-earlier version of DP4.6 appeared to load and work perfectly AFTER I upgraded to Leopard. I was impressed. I didn't work with it very long before upgrading to DP6, though. But, based on that, I did have high expectations that the upgrade would work fine. And the software, itself seems to be great. The only problem is the iLok.
    Your information about dongle workarounds is also interesting and I will look into that subject further as well, as it might be my only solution in Leopard. I do not know if I am allowed a backup. We will see.
    I do have an earlier system I can use, but I'd like to avoid moving backwards, if possible.
    Again, thanks for the great info.

    Cselas1962, welcome to the forum.
    Here is the Win 8.1 driver for the printer.  I suggest checking to see if the driver that is installed is the same or newer.  If the one in the link is newer, you should install it to see if that helps.  It could be that there is a driver conflict with the driver for the Touch screen.

  • My iPad 1 has stopped working after trying to instal iOS 5. Can you help restore?

    My iPad has stopped working after trying unsuccessfully to instal iOS5. All that's currently showing on the iPad screen is a white USB cable with a thick arrow pointing towards the iTunes logo (black double note within a white rimmed circle and a blue background).I cannot switch it off and have seemingly lost everything that was on it.
    Please help!

    That means you have to restore the device with iTunes now. So connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and restore the iPad.

  • Compaq Presario CQ62 DVD not working after Windows 7 automatic install of upgrades

    The DVD in my Compaq CQ62 stopped working after Windows 7 automatically installed updates. The driver seems to be corrupted. When I open Device Manager, the DVD comes up as hp DVD RW AD-7701H SATA CdRom Device and the device status displays...A driver (service) for this device has been disabled.  An alternate driver may be providing this functionality. (Code 32).. There are two drivers installed--cdrom.sys from Microsoft,  File Version 6.1.7600.16385(win7_rtm.090713-1255) and PxHlpa64.sys File Version 2.03.32a from Sonic Solutions. If anyone knows the link to download the new driver or how to resolve this problem please let me know.

  • Microcell stopped working after working fine for over a year

    Hi everyone, My Microcell stopped working after working fine for over a year
    What happens now is that when it boots up all is green but the wireless network bars LED keeps flashing forever.
    I know that as part of the normal boot process it first scans all 3G channels to pick the least conflicting ones before it initializes the internal 3G radio. Typically that takes good 10 minutes. However now it never finishes that scan and gets stuck there blinking green forever. Obviously nothing has changed on my side of things; I don't know whether something has changed in the neighborhood in terms of AT&T area controller or what not. Any help will be very much appreciated. Thak you!

    Answer ALL the questions below as best you can and we'll try to help you.
    MicroCell™ TroubleShooting Questions:
    Have you read the Tech Guide first? 3G MicroCell Technical Guide by Otto Pylot
    Do you have an active postpaid AT&T mobile account?
    Is your MicroCell white or black?
    Who is your ISP and is your service ADSL, cable, wireless or satellite?
    What are your suscribed download and upload speeds as stated by your ISP?
    Have you tested your internet speeds (http://www.speedtest.net/)? Please run the test and post your latency, download and upload speeds.
    Have you tested your connection for VoIP quality (http://www.voipqualitytest.com/)? Please run the test and post the results that are listed under the "Advanced" tab.
    Are you using the basic connection (modem -> router -> MicroCell) or the alternate connection (modem -> MicroCell -> router/computer)? The alternate connection is not possible with the black (DPH-154) MicroCell as it has no Ethernet output but it can be connected directly to the modem to temporarily test the Microcell without the network connected.
    Are all of the cables firmly in place?
    Do you have a combined modem/router (gateway) or a separate modem and router? What are the makes and model numbers for your equipment?
    Have you met the minimum requirements for router settings as outlined in the Tech Guide?
    What other equipment (access points, switches, computers, WiFi components, gaming consoles, etc.) do you have connected to your network?
    What does the light pattern look like on the MicroCell (power, ethernet, GPS, and 3G)? Are they all a solid green or is any of them blinking green or red, and if so, which one?
    Have you done a hard reset of the MicroCell? See the Tech Guide for instructions.
    Have you deactivated and reactivated your Mcell using AT&T's MicroCell website?
    Does the ac adapter feel warmer than the top of the MicroCell where the vents are?

  • N97 GPS not working after 2.0 upgrade

    Hello
    I have a N97  (RM-505) which is currently running 20.2.019. Previously it was running 11.x (don't remember exactly). The problem is that after the upgrade, GPS stopped working: it will never get any signal. I have tried in various places, ranging from the roof of my house to the top of a mountain, with and without cell signal and with and without AGPS (which obviously makes sense only when I have signal). I'm using Applications->Location->GPS Data->Position, which always shows "No connection" and the well-known message "GPS works poorly indoors and in enclosed areas".
    Of course all of this was working fine before the upgrade (with the obvious limitations of the GPS signal) and I have checked with a standalone Garmin GPS just in case (it could get signal where the N97 couldn't).
    I have tried a hard reset (*#7370#), but the result is the same.
    Anyone experienced the same problem?
    Thanks

    Same happens with 5800's firmware update... Nokia doesn't care to make a beta phase before release any update, they like to test with us.

  • GPS not working after 2.0 upgrade

    I have an RM-507 N97 as well, upgraded to v20 firmware and with the GPS antenna factory fix.
    It appears that the firmware upgrade changes something between the MAPS app, the MAP data and the GPS drivers which causes this issue.
    Recommended course of action is to delete and reinstall map data using PC Suite or Ovi Suite.
    ps. There is another apparent problem that can cause lack of GPS fix which is currently under investigation.  If your N97 is "hot" (i.e. just after charging or long periods of continuous display activity), you may have problems getting a GPS fix.  Also, if you run the MAPS app for a long period of time with display active, you may see loss of fix problems.

  • GPS stopped working! (unending "search for location" prompt since Android 5.0.1)

    Shortly after getting the Android update my GPS stopped working all together. I have tried everything i could think of. Uninstalled all recent apps, hard reboot, GPS testing app, full phone diagnostic apps, finally COMPLETE phone wipe re-installing everything. Nothing has worked! I am desperate. I use GPS all the time, not a single app, nor the phone itself can get the GPS to get a location fix. No matter what i do, the phone eternally says "Finding Location" for every single GPS using app, diagnostics or otherwise.
    It is just a stock Verizon HTC One M8. A brand spanking new one, never dropped, stock verizon/android OS, like literally pristine new! Since the phone is not rooted i have no real way of rolling back to an older Android version correct? I noticed there was only one other post with the same exact symptons posted about 3 months ago that went without any answer/responses since. So... am i SOL? I tried initiating Verizon support on Twitter, but they think its a specific app problem... *sigh*
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    I have been trying to troubleshoot with Verizon support via twitter as well. So far I have gotten, to simply turn location off for 12 hours and afterwords see if it works again. This did not work. They said engineers are looking into it.  Additionally this was a replacement phone via the HTC advantage program so I assume it is refurbished. I did not use GPS until the 5,0,1 android update coincidentally so I do not know for sure it worked when I got it.
    The 2nd link shows the possibility of GPS breakage during the initial teardown of a return. Sadly the other issue is extreme battery drain. A 5 min phone call took 5% power and standby for 2 hours took 30%. No active background apps beyond stock, no auto sync, all devices but 4g data and WiFi turned off.
    I think the software is not to blame. Seems HTC sent me an incrediby faulty phone.

    Safari and firefox stop working after a few minutes of browsing, regardless of what site I'm on. I have to restart my computer to get internet access again but it only works for a few more minutes, then I have to restart again. I don't get a spinning ball, it just stops working at whatever page it's on. I can close the program just fine but when I re-open it, either safari or firefox, it freezes trying to load the hompage. This started a few days ago after trying to stream a movie on my computer. I'm on a Mac Air OS X Version 10.6.8 and have downloaded all updates. When I go into finder, it says I have over 80 gigs available. Is there some other memory cache that I need to check? Thanks so much for your help.

    It's not a router problem as I explained in my post. If it was a router problem then I wouldn't have the problem everywhere I go. It is an issue with the software.
    Then I guess the millions of people running 10.5.7 with no issues are just hallucinating that their machines are working fine?
    I'm not trying to belittle your issues; you're certainly having them and I know first hand how annoying an intermittent AirPort issue can be. (In fact, mine was due to an AirPort driver bug that no one else seemed to suffer from.)
    The single best diagnostic you could do is take your system running 10.5.7 to an Apple Store, and try using their in-store network.
    If your machine performs flawlessly, it may be a router issue.
    If your machine has connectivity issues there, it may be a hardware problem with your machine.
    There have been numerous people in multiple threads over the years who swore that an update was buggy because things used to work, but returned later to sheepishly admit that they took their machine in, a problem was found and fixed, and now their Mac works flawlessly with the newer software.
    But simply reinstalling 10.5.5 in no way means the explanation of how firmware bugs may be at play here is incorrect.
    In the context of that explanation, all you've done is possibly reinstall software that asks to add "2 + 3."
