N82. Internal GPS v Bluetooth GPS

Just wondering which uses more power, using the internal GPS or bluetooth? What about network data, how much does the in built GPS use?
Nokia N8 on Belle

If you want a response from Nokia, use Contact Us on the top right corner of the page. If you want a response from the people on the forum, please be patient.
First, apply any software updates. If this does not fix it, reset your device. This often solves problems in the operating system configuration. If you still don't see integrated GPS in that menu, then take the handset to the store and ask them to replace it. If the replacement doesn't have GPS either, then ask for your money back and buy the handset somewhere else.
In some regions, GPS is illegal for civilians. It is possible that the handset you purchased was made for a region where GPS is prohibited. Even if GPS is not prohibited where you bought the device, shops sometimes import stock from other countries.
The Nokia MEA site is for the entire MEA region in several languages and cannot reflect these sorts of local prohibitions. If the shop told you that handset has GPS, and it definitely doesn't, then that's something you have to take up with the shop. Nokia cannot stop a shop from making a mistake.

Will the internal gps work in the ipad 4 even if there is no mobile signal?

So I am about to buy and ipad 4 and need to know if the internal gps will work when I am out of a mobile signal area
Thanks

Yes. The GPS will operate in the absence of a cellular signal. But dynamically loaded apps/maps (loaded as needed via either cellular or Wi-Fi) will not update the map data without an internet connection. If you have an app that has the ability to pre-load the map data you will be using beforehand, while connected to the internet, you should have no issue but that will also depend on the app and whether or not it's coded to operate correctly in the absence of cellular or Wi-Fi.

E52 internal GPS fix problem only with OVI Maps

Hi all,
I read many many E52 phones suffer Internal GPS fix problems.
I don't beleve this is an hardware problem, but only a software bug.
My experiments say this:
1) Start phone, start Ovi Maps -> No lock at all. (only 1 blinking line in bottom left corner)
2) Start phone, start McGuider (Sygic) navigator -> E52 locks quite immedeately. (in the same place!!)
3) After GPS is locked, start Ovi Maps again. Now also Maps works great!
4) Also the gps built-in application under Menu->Applications->GPS->GPS Data has the same behaviour as Ovi Maps.
Anyone can try and report this or similar experience?
Thank you!

Thank you for the response.
I'm sure the fix is faster if i use A-GPS, but i i have to pay for data connection.
And, above all, Sygic works perfectly WITHOUT A-GPS, so why Ovi Maps does not?
Yes, you have to pay, but the connection takes about 20sec. About Sygic you're right I noticed that too. It locks pretty fast.

Verizon iPhone 4: does this phone have an INTERNAL GPS unit?

I thought it would but when I drove into an area with no cell coverage my pre-installed MAPS did not work?! If the iPhone has an internal GPS should I not have map coverage anyway? My wife's Droid switches to internal gps.... Can anyone educate me on this?
For good turn by turn is the Tom Tom ap for iPhone a good one?
If the iPhone 4 verizon has an internal gps why does tom tom have a car kit for iPhone??????
thank you!

As a test I put my iPhone in Airplane mode and when I opened Maps I was instructed to turn off Airplane mode or use WiFi to show my location on the map. I pressed OK and got another message that my location is unable to be displayed on the map. I know data is used to download the map to show your current location and I guess without some type of data connection the Map app will not function.

Using Bluetooth with internal GPS

I have a car Bluetooth receiver. I would like to use it for turn by turn voice prompts from my internal device (NavTech).
The voice prompts are currently coming over the speaker phone and I can't hear them while driving.
Can I send voice prompts to the Bluetooth?

you will need the missing sync from markspace regardless whether 700p, 700w, 700wx.
I have the 700p and its bluetooth syncing is flawless... sometimes a little slow on Program syncing and installing, but wonderful for syncing your address book, iCal, tasks, etc.
The Missing Sync is definitely worth your $30 for it.

Can not initiate internal GPS on Treo Pro (850 Australia)

I am having trouble connecting GPS. Do you know why? or How?
I have tried with GOOGLE MAP and TOMTOM (ver. 6.030) and GPS signal doesn't seemed to be establish.
Post relates to: Treo Pro T850U (Unlocked)

Hi.. Welcome to the Palm forums.. The Treo Pro according to the spec list found at this link, http://www.palm.com/us/support/handbooks/Pro_UL_Datasheet.pdf . (you may have to copy and paste it into your browser), shows Expansion MicroSDHC cards (up to 32GB supported). Now I have not used a sdhc card in a pro nor do I know of anyone that has but according to palms specs on the treo pro show this as what is compatible.

HT5467 Does the Apple iPad with Retina Display MD513LL/A have internal GPS?

Just wondering if my Apple iPad with Retina Display MD513LL/A contains GPS chip or if I need to purchase an external GPS?
Thanks for any help!

No, the WiFi model does not have a GPS.

Can anyone suggest an international GPS nav app that offers map and POI downloads for offline access and route search?

I'm going to be in the UK with an American phone, don't expect mobile data, and I'd like to use this app instead of the £30 up charge for a rental GPS... I've seen the free Navfree and the cheap as free MotionX Drive, but have read Navfree has some spotty routing and MotionX won't allow regional (or even whole city, ftm) map downloads.

At $90 for the UK maps this is a too pricey for the use case. In case it wasn't clear, I'm visiting the UK short term so I shouldn't spend more than the £30 to hire a GPS nav system.
Thanks for the suggestion! Any other ideas?

Of course you have to pay for GPRS/3G traffic.
Cheers.

Sometimes you can't beat a printed map!
If you can find a map that has coordinates (Long, Lat) and print it then you can use a BT GPS receiver to get GPS data into your phone (I think it's possible), to know where you are and then use the printed map.
I've used this method for hiking, since the hiking routes don't show up on any of the online maps I've looked.
Oh and to get to Google maps, scan this with your device:

Internal Mic and Bluetooth not working together at the same time

Okay.. so I've been noticing this happen alot lately. Whenever I have my usb wacom tablet plugged in (which is almost always), there would be no internal mic input and bluetooth would become "not unavailable". Also, even when I try an external mic, there was no input. Could this be a coincidence or some related usb-bluetooth problem? Could it be my audio input or tablet driver problem?
I've used my mic to skype before I had installed the tablet. Also before I used garage band to record my sister's guitar with an external mic, there was no problem at all, and of course I didn't have my tablet plugged in at the time. Recorded a whole hours worth of music, and didn't have any problems.
Today.. I checked to see if my internal mic was working before I launched skype, and it was working perfectly, and I also noticed my bluetooth was available (didn't test it though). Then I went on skype talked to friend for about 20min, and suddenly the audio stop working. I had my tablet plugged in from earlier today. I restarted my macbook (with no tablet plugged in) and still mic input isn't working. I tried and external mic, but still nothing. I tried uninstalling skype, still nothing.
This is not the first time this happened, I noticed it would somehow fix itself after a few days every time, and mic and bluetooth would start working again out of nowhere. Which makes it even more weird.
Need help pleaseee!
PS. I tried getting someone to fix it before(a few months ago- I don't really use my mic or bluetooth much), but when I brought it in and started up my mac, at that time it was working again. But now it isn't working =(

UPDATE: I just noticed my bluetooth was no longer "unavailable", so I quickly went into system preferences, and noticed that my internal mic input had some input! Very weak though, only 1-2 bars. So what does this mean?

How To Install internal Mac Pro Bluetooth?

Could anyone draw me a picture in my head of how to install this bluetooth device before I get it and put it in pretty quick? Users guide is no joy. Can';t be too hard? I'm softwared up and external now. Keyboard connectivity is not what I'd like... maybe on account of the third party external usb/bluetooth.

N82 V30.0.013 Bluetooth and Wireless LAN problems

I am using an N82, but it looks like there are similar problems with everything using similar firmware. I didn't have any of these problems with the V20 firmware that came with the phone or after the first V20 upgrade I used.
I find that my wireless LAN connections sometimes only let me browse a few pages before I get the "web connection timed out" message. If I change wireless LAN connection (I have two, mostly for testing purposes) I can continue browsing. Of course the same error may happen causing me to switch again. Sometimes it just works. Both have WPA set up and the passwords are clearly correct. If I use Real Player I can typically listen for as long as I like. Sometimes the connection to the server will drop for Real Player but reconnecting will work (don't have to change wireless LAN network). With the web browser it seems like the data connection is dead, not a server timing out - the message appears instantly. I think have seen the same problem once with my 3G connection, but I haven't recreated it. Could be my imagination!
I have never had any problems with IMAP email using either the Nokia client or Profimail on either the wireless LAN connection or 3G. It leads me to believe that there is nothing wrong with the wireless LAN side of things and it may be more to do with the web browser, or perhaps just that the email clients are only talking to one server helps (DNS problems?). Has anyone experienced similar problems with an alternative browser?
I have also found that when I get to work my bluetooth dongle doesn't connect to my phone. If I disable/enable bluetooth on my phone it will connect. I had this problem with my N80 with the first firmware I had on it and the problem went away after an upgrade.
So, it seems that both connections are fixed by turning them off and on again.

Having both routers the same IP address is a little bit confusing, but possible since each router creates it's own subnet and provides full PNAT support. Actiontec DSL modem has to have DHCP enabled since Linksys WAN (not LAN) port should be connected to one of 4 Actiontec LAN ports. Linksys should not have any configuration setup in regards of your WAN account. Just set it to dynamic address. In ohter words:
1. RJ-11 connect to Actiontec mode/router.
2. Actiontec modem should be configured to acquire an IP address from Verizon and to provide all authentication info to Verizon.
3. Actiontec modem should be configured to allow clients to acquire dynamic IP addresses -- DHCP enabled.
4. Linsys WAN (not LAN!) port should be connected to Actiontec LAN port.
5. Linksys should be configured to acquire dynamic IP address and no authentifacations.
6. Configure Linksys to be DHCP enabled or you can use static IP addresss if you want.
7. Wireless devices would be connected to Linksys and on the way to the Internet addresses would go through double NAT conversions. Any wired device connected to Linksys would have similar features. Any device connected to Linksys should be able to connect 192.168.1.1 assigned to Linksys, but not to Actiontec.
8. To be able to connect Linksys and Actiontec would no be able to communicate unless you split 192.168.1.0/24 into smaller subnets and set specific routes in the table. But even you do so you will not be able to access 192.168.1.1 accross subnets boundary.
Hope it helps.
