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??

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.
Happy to have helped forum in a small way with a Support Ratio = 37.0

Envy 17 3D 2090NR: Compatible wireless minicard/module with GPS, preferably 4g (or 3G)?

We're looking for a compatible internal wireless minicard/module with GPS and preferably 4g for a series of Envy 17 3d 2090NRs. We also NEED to maintain WiFi, but on the Envy 17 3D I believe the Intel WIFI is integrated on the mobo... If not, we'll need at least 802.11 a/b/g/n WiFi in whatever minicard/module solution we go with,
The selected minicard/module must also be compatible with either AT&T or Verizon.

Take a look at the AT&T or Verizon offerings for the USB solutions that they recommend and/or sell or lease. Your notebook does not have an externally accessible mini-PCIe port nor a slot for a WWAN module.

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

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.

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.

Laptop suddenly died, indicator light

My laptop suddenly turned off, and I could never turn it back on. I have determined that it is not the battery causing this problem.
There is an indicator light that turns on when I try to start it up again. It blinks both orange at one rate, and blue at another rate, simultaneously.
I realize my laptop is out of warranty, but I am curious if anyone knows that this indicator light means, so that I can isolate the problem.
I have a Satellite A135-S4656
Thank you,
Jon

It 'sounds' like the BIOS was corrupted either from a virus, install, or download. Unfortunately there is no way to 'reset' the BIOS after a bad flash, and once it is powered down and shut off there is no way to turn it back on without replacing the mainboard. Try contacting Toshiba direct and see what they would charge you for a replacement mainboard.
Clearing the CMOS by replacing the battery will not help if it is a bad BIOS. You can try a few things though... Disconnect AC+Battery press the Power Button to discharge the current. Remove/Replace the memory. If you have 2 sticks take one out, attempt to boot, if it doesn't take the other stick out and put the one you just took out back in (alternate) boot, test. It sounds like a Bad Memory module as well as a corrupted BIOS, so it might be worth a try to replace the memory with atleast one working stick.

MBP won't start or read from optical drive; steady sleep indicator light

MBP went into sleep mode at some point during the day. Now I cannot wake it up. I had a steady sleep indicator light. I've tried everything in the book (holding down pwr button to shut down, then restarting; reset power manager; tried rebooting with OS disc #1 installed - which now will not eject).
When I press the power button, I can hear the optical drive start to turn, then it stops short. The drive will spin for awhile, then stops automatically. The computer fans come on, but that's about it. I can't reboot so as to run Disk Utility. The screen remains black. Starting with shift key pressed for Safe mode or pressing C also have not worked. Seems as if the computer is not getting passed the initial start up sequence. My wife also has a MBP but I haven't tried reading my computer via Firewire yet. Not sure that will help.
I'm a long way away from any Apple store (Kazakhstan) and would greatly appreciate some help. Thanks! Scott

This problem has been resolved. Problem was a faulty RAM module. I sent my MacBook Pro to an authorized service center; they had it fixed in less than 1 day. Works fine now. No problems since!

WRT400N WiFi indicator light inverted state

When I was first experimenting with my new WRT400N last month I noticed that at one point the WiFi indicator light got into an inverted state, i.e., it was on when it should have been off and vice-versa. It seemed to fix itself on the next power cycle, but now it's back, and this time a power cycle doesn't fix it. I suppose I can do a full reset and reload settings from backup, but this is turning into an another annoying bug with the WRT400N. Linksys still shows no sign of fixing the PPTP VPN defect, and there have been no firmware updates since the first release more than a year ago. I'm wondering if Linksys has any plans for a firmware update to fix these bugs, or is the original firmware all we get?

I have installed the new r11 firmware. Now when I set wireless to "Disabled", the router takes a full 60 seconds to reboot, and the wireless indicator goes into an inverted state (i.e., on when it should be off). Come on, Linksys, it shouldn't be rocket science to get an indicator light to work, especially when it's your second try!

F380 ALL-IN-ONE printer , All indicator lights are on.

i own an f380 printer, and for some reason all the indicator lights are just on (not blinking).

Hello snodgrassium,
I see that this is your first visit with us here on the HP Forums. Please let me take a moment to say "Welcome"
I hope you enjoy your experience!
To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I see that you are having an issue with the light on the printer staying on solid. One thing that you can try is to make sure you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general.
Please click on the link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
Once you have the power cable in a wall outlet, power cycle the printer with the use of the ON/OFF button.
If you are still having issue or if you have any other questions, please feel free to write me back.
Hope you have a great Tuesday.

Battery Charging Indicator Light Is Out

I own a tangerine iBook, OS X 10.4 operating system.
For a year or so charging the battery while the power cord in has been a "fussy" project -- sometimes it wouldn't charge until I moved the "plug-in-to-the-computer" end of the cord out ever so slightly. I bought a new power cord, but that didn't change things.
I don't have internet at hom, so most days I take my laptop and power cord to the public library and use the library's WiFi to look for work. Yesterday I came home, plugged in the power cord, and no battery charging light. I "jiggled" the cord, got out the old power cord and tried that one, then I tried a different electrical outlet. No battery charging indicator light, and the battery is discharging while I use it with the power cord.
I'm assuming this is an electrical problem that I can't fix, but can anyone fix it? When the battery runs out, will the iBook keep running when plugged into an electircal outlet, or is the electricity not getting to where it need to be?
I've had problems with the battery not charging before, and once I was advised to reset something, but I've alway had the indicator light on, so now I don't know if power is getting to my computer.
I went to About This Computer, clicked on Power and saw this:
AC Charger Information:
AC Charger (Watts):    0
Connected:    No
Charging:    No
which looks like it doesn't think I'm connected to any power source.

Yes, if resetting the PMU doesn't work, it does sound like the DC-in board has failed.
It is not an easy repair (especially for someone who describes herself as "NonTech."

After upgrading to Mac OS 10.6.8, sleep indicator light remains off when I start my MB Pro

After upgrading to Mac OS 10.6.8, sleep indicator light remains off when I start my 15" MB Pro, but the computer works, and when I put it to sleep, the light flashes as normally. Any suggestions?

Hi j,
An SMC Reset can fix some SIL issues. If everything is working fine . . . ? Anyway, it shouldn't hurt anything to try it if you want: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964

Sleep indicator light not working

This isn't really that huge of an issue, but I've noticed that the sleep indicator light on my 366MHz Firewire iBook, which I recently bought on eBay and installed a few upgrades in, seems to not be flashing when the computer is asleep. At first I suspected a bad LED, so I swapped it out with a known-good indicator light from my previous 300MHz iBook. That hasn't seemed to work, and both display cables going into the motherboard appear to be securely attached. Oddly enough, I do recall one time when I put the computer to sleep and the indicator light worked (this was somewhere in the middle of my trying to get it to work), but I haven't been able to replicate it.

Have you tried to reset the Power Management Unit (PMU)?
