X300 w/AT&T wireless--GPS?

Greetings. I have an X300 with the AT&T Sierra HSDPA adapter. I found the Moderator's link to the GPS download file on the FTP site, but it will not install. The box is billed as GPS-capable with the AT&T card--what am I missing, folks?
Thanks,
--Rick Morgan

Welcome to the forum!
I may be wrong, but from what I recall GPS was only available with Verizon WWAN, not with AT&T.
Cheers,

E63 and TomTom Wireless GPS MkII receiver connecti...

Every time I am associating TomTom Wireless GPS MkII receiver with my E63, the Bluetooth connection drops withing just a few seconds and it doesn't reconnect again (it has to be paired again). That same GPS receiver works just fine with my laptop though. Is there any way to make it work with E63? There are no options on the receiver, just a power button. Does it need a "driver" of some sort? The E63 has the latest firmware available through Nokia Software Update tool.
Thanks!
Solved!

I solved my problem. It is not enough to pair TomTom Wireless GPS with E63. A Positioning option must be set to use Bluetooth GPS: Menu -> Tools -> Settings -> General -> Positioning -> Positioning Methods -> Bluetooth GPS. Once that option is checked, both Ovi Maps and Google Maps connect to my GPS receiver.

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

GPS LD-3W and nokia 5800 charger

hi , i have a nokia 5800 and a wireless gps module ( LD-3W) .
in bundle for Gps i received a DC-4 car charger but i need also charge GPS module at home .
May i use the nokia 5800 charger for this ?
i remember that :
5800 charger is 5v/890mA .. and GPS charger is 5,7v/890 mA
thanks

Someone asked so;
My 5530 charger works fine charging the LD-3W; its because nokia only every 1 of 2 chargers the large tip or the small tip.
Yes the LD-3W works really well and except for the LD-3W having some extra battery life I heard that the 3w and 4w are really quite similar.
I am not too sure on the specs of them for accuracy and positioning but when i use mine it updates quite quickly (with only little jumps while in my car) and it gets the right position all the time.
I believe the LD-4W should work fine with the 5530 also.
And if you do not have nokia/ovi maps then you should get it. Its free and it has full navigation now.
Ovi Maps
++If you have a 5530 you have to download the 5800 maps application from here;
http://maps.nokia.com/ovi-services-and-apps/ovi-maps/downloads#/nokia-5800-xpressmusic/
Its up to you but I just choose download from pc which is at the bottom as it wont cost you data charges etc for using you mobile.
++Next install the app on your phone
++Now thats it just install ovi suite from here;
http://europe.nokia.com/support/download-software/nokia-ovi-suite
and choose what maps you want to download and by choosing update you can check your app is up to date.
Most of this info above plays to the 5800 aswell

Hi asha305user,
Upon checking, the phone does not support GPS and Wireless GPS module. The Nokia Maps installed on your device uses cell ID based positioning provided by your network operator.

5800 wont pick up GPS satellites

I recently updated my 5800's firmware from v21 to v30.0.011 but my GPS seems to have become buggered ;/On v21, I would pick up a fairly strong signal within a minute of two but now, I can barely get connected to 3 satellites after 15-20mins. I have tested it on a clear night with my N95-2 next to it. Even though the N95-2 has a weaker reciever, it conntected to around 9 satellites within a few minutes and stayed strong, whereas my 5800 only managed three. I don;t think it is a hardware fault as the GPS worked fine on v21. I have hard resetted the device (green, red and camera when turning on) but its the same! Any help appreciated and Nokia Discussions is not Opera optimised!
Nokia N9 PR 1.3

Hello,
Indeed the GPS issue is one of the negative points of this great device. That's because
the internal gps receiver is weak and dependable on A-gps ( assisted gps)
Furthermore as I experienced gps user ( I have a standalone Gps system the Clarion map
running the latest versions of iGO8 and Tomtom7) i don't like the Nokia maps software at
all!
I disabled a-gps on my device and therefore it was a struggle to get a sattelite fix.
Anyway I decided to install the Latest version of Garmin mobile XT for Symbian S60
and it was nice to see how nicely this software works on my 5800, like a charm ( during the
rarely occasions that I got a sattelite fix)
I still prefer iGO8 than Garmin, but for a mobile(touchscreen)phone Garmin did a great job!
And then I decided to buy a compact bluetooth gps receiver! And why not?
The Nokia 5800 is so much cheaper than so many other smartphones, so
why not spend some 35 box extra to extend our gps enjoyment?
Well, here in Holland the Wireless GPS Module LD-3W costs around 35 euros
it got a sirfstarIII chipset ( 20 channels) and it works great! And to my surprise
it comes with a car battery charger that fits in my 5800 too! Another 10 euros saved!
If you dont have another GPS system and you need one, so I recommend this combination: Nokia 5800 / Garmin mobile XT for Symbian S60 and a bluetooth gps
receiver...It kicks it!
Problem solved!!!

E71 with TT6?

Hi All
I have just got TomTom 6 on my E71 and am wondering which GPS Reviever to get - either the Nokia LD 4W or the TomTom Mk2 Either way I am wanting to know if he E71 will work in the following set up?
Connected to the Built in Bluetooth Phone kit in my Vauxhall Insignia at the same time as being linked to the Wireless GPS and operating TomTom 6?
Also has anyone got any feedback on the TomTom Wireless GPS unit vs. the Nokia Ld 4W??
Thanks
Steve

I removed the software ('email on 3') and reinstalled it a number of times. Did you mean this or a hard reset of the whole mobile?
What Nokia do you have? Exactly what problems did you experience and how did you solve them?
Things are getting better now: emails no longer disappear after I switch the phone off and back on, but delivery is not instant and takes about 5-8 minutes - even when I send mail from other addresses to myself. Do you receive emails instantly?
Could my issues have something to do with the recent change to 3g only in the network, or with the fact that data transmission may not work 100% the first few days after the number is activated?
Thanks a lot!

X200 WWAN (f3507g) compatibility issue with Juniper Network Connect VPN

I have just recently received my X200 with the build-in WWAN which is a Ericsson f3507g card and found that it causes my Juniper VPN software unable to load, and I have also noticed other applications like Outlook is rather slow. When I "Disabled" the WWAN card in "Device Manager"->"Network Adapters", all apps work perfectly. I am using 32-bit Vista Business.
Can someone test and see if you have the same problem as mine? I am wondering if this is a driver issue of the f3507g WWAN card.

Hello
I have just spent all day trying to work out why Outlook takes forever to connect on initial start. It was purely by luck/perseverance that I happened to notice an "ipconfig" stuck for a second on LAN2 - which is the ericsson card.
I too then disabled this adapter and found Outlook performance cured. I had popped along to these forums to find a fix but at least I can verify the issue with you.
Bloody annoying since I've only had the X301 1 day - I bought it for use whilst my X300 is having its wireless-freezing issue sorted. Not a good advert for Lenovo I think.

6630 Bluetooth wont turn on???

I am trying to connect my phone to GPS bluetooth receiver for sat nav but the bluetooth on my phone won't turn on.. i get message " unable to perform bluetooth operation"???? then my phone keeps locking up???

is this the bluetooth GPS device you've tried to connect?
Nokia Wireless GPS Module LD-3W
If you've tried Nokia LD-4W GPS device, sorry it's not compatible with Nokia 6630.
Anyway you said bluetooth won't turn on, i suggest you to turn off your device then take out the battery for a minute. Then put it back and turn on your device, try to switch bluetooth on. If problem remains reset your phone by dialling *#7370#. (default lock code is 12345)
Reset will erase all user data on phone memory, backup your data before reset it.
DON'T BACKUP SETTINGS, SETTINGS MAY CONTAIN ERRORS.
Glad to help

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.
regards,
erico

GPS & Canon 40d Wireless Transmitter-Import elevation also.

PC: I shoot RAW using a Canon 40d with the Wireless Transmitter, which uses a usb connection between my Garmin gps and the WT. LR includes the gps coordinate information in the metadata, allowing me to click on the field and be taken to Google Maps.
The frustrating part: Canon shows the *elevation* data (albeit in meters) when viewing the image in the camera, but LR won't import it. Ideally, Canon should also import the electronic compass bearing from the gps, and LR should import both data.
[Compass bearing is helpful for taking time-differentiated photos of the same area (e.g., 4-season photos), and elevation is handy for GIS use.]
Does anyone have an idea of *how* LR imports the gps data?

I'd also be very interested in learning this.
Don - if nobody replies to your thread or offers any suggestions it might be worth your while posting something along these lines in the features request. Who knows, perhaps the LR team will add some more functionality to the GPS input data in a future version.

IPhone GPS location incorrect when connected to home wireless network

Hi all,
My iPhone GPS works well except when I am at home and connect to my wireless network. It always gives the same incorrect location about 3km away from my house. When I turn wireless off then the phone gives my correct location.
I think it is somehow getting confused when connecting to my airport. (I wonder if it is showing the location of the local telephone exchange?)
Has anyone else encountered this problem or found a solution? Or can I somehow tell my airport where it is?
Thanks!

A company called Skyhook Wireless maps WiFi and cell tower locations it scans. Apple uses this to help your GPS locate itself quicker. Here's how it works: http://www.skyhookwireless.com/inaction/apple.php
If your WiFi has not been scanned properly, you can submit a WiFi location update by going here: http://www.skyhookwireless.com/howitworks/submit_ap.php
