BB Tour :: GPS Is Not Finding "Where I Am" Correctly
Aug 1, 2010
I had recently updated my BlackBerry Tour to version 5.0 which is great except for the fact that now in my maps it will not find "where I am" correctly it says that I am miles away from where I am. I went to my carrier of U.S. I tried to find a way to refresh the GPS but can't find out how on the tour. The people at U.S. Cellular said to downgrade which I did until I no longer had my facebook app, app world and blackberry messenger.
So my Tour bricked after I swapped in a fresh battery today. Everything has been fine. No recently d/l application. I don't know what happened, but it doesn't matter now. I had some trouble getting the device wiped, but it went from Reload Software 522 to Reload Software 507. 507 means it's wiped correct? If so, my next issue is finding the OS on my computer. I went into C>program files>Research in Motion don't see OS 4.7.1.XX. Any help in directing me to my OS would be appreciated. I haven't deleted anything on my computer(VISTA) and I've upgraded OS's a few times in the past. I don't know where it could have gone or maybe I'm just blind. If it is gone, maybe someone can direct me to a replacement.
my gps won't seem to stop finding location. it does it like every minute making my highest battery use the android system with gps being awake all the time. tried shutting down phone. tried turning location services off then on. when i do that it will no longer recognize the "trusted places" even after it has established location.
I'm on my Samsung galaxy s5 and I'm trying the find the previous pin I used. I need it to get into my old s3. I changed my pin about four months back for my s5 and now I cant remember the one I used to always use. I have the pin I'm currently using on my s5 so I'm not locked out of my new phone. Is there anyway to see the last pin I used?
Is there a gmail app for the blackberry. I have an aol email, and now a new email supported by gmail. I currently get my aol email on my blackberry, but can only view my gmail on the web browser. Is there a way to get both?
I have been setting up my internet connection to my laptop throught my bluetooth connection on my phone... I am in need of finding the ISP Name and password information for T-Mobile
The SMS list does not appear draft messages correctly for one of my enterprise user. But the draft messages are appearing correctly when viewed from the master message list which used for all messages.
I have wiped out the handheld & restored the backup, but the problematic draft messages has gone missing now & everything works fine.
Iv had my Desire now for around 1 year and recently iv encountered a problem while charging.When i connect the charging cable and try to charge either by the PC or the power mains the battery icon doesnt start moving yet it has the lightning symbol and yet my phone doesnt charge. Its like theres only enough power coming through to actually run the phone.Sometimes when i charge the phone when its off it charges perfectly but other times it doesnt, sometimes when i charge the phone when its on it charges perfectly and other times it doesnt.I did have 300+ photos and videos on my phone/sd card but i thought it might of been a memory problem so i deleted half of my photo's/videos and then it charged perfectly....for a while but it has now gone back to just showing the lightning icon but the baterry icon not moving or charging.
I am using N97 mini, i updated the map to OVI free navigation map, but i want to use the navigation without internet conncetion and for that i need to download the map and save it into my device.
But the problem is i cant find the correct link for Map Loader, please suggest and advice, Please check the url befor suggesting it to me because i tried many URLs non are working for downloading MAP LOADER!
I have downloaded OVI Store & PC Suite software, but cant find the MAP LOADER software...
Why I can't see anyway where to downloads my European & American maps with Snow Leopard. I'll explain better: I downloaded and installed ovi maps online, I installed nokia multimedia transfer, as I transfer music, photo. Why am I having problems finding the Map Loader? there is nowhere. I Have a Nokia 5800 Xpress Music that works well, maps apart, i can't navigate anywhere without maps!
If i try and find a direction to say a friends house, Via the address in my contacts the search result either shows nothing at all OR another address with a totally different post code in a different location!
The only way i can get directions is if i type in the name of town on it's own.And it doesn't always find that! In the search facility.It gives an example:10 downing st london uk. And it finds and gives directions fine! But if i for example type in 'buckingham palace london uk' nothing!!
Am i expecting too much? or should i get directions to an address as long as i supply house no,street name, town and postcode! Surely this is how gps is supposed to work.
this was one of the main reasons i bought my BB phone (apart from UMA which i am also struggling with.) Phone is a curve 8900 btw. And i am on Orange.
I'm getting really, really frustrated. PC Companion use to detect my phone, but no longer does. I've connected by bluetooth, but this is inconsistent. I know the drivers are downloaded with PC Companion, but uninstalling, installing, searching for drivers hasn't worked.
I've had my Galaxy S5 since it came out and haven't had any issues with it yet. All of a sudden this evening I noticed that when I got to the lockscreen that the GPS icon appeared in my notification bar. When I dragged down the bar it said "finding location" which was unclearable from the notification list. After unlocking the screen, sometimes the GPS icon will go away, and other times it just stays there.
Why it'd randomly start doing this now and never happened before? Any way I can get it to avoid doing that without turning my GPS off? I'm just concerned about it draining my battery life, but don't want to lose the benefits of GPS staying on.
i am trying to backup my iphone, i dont know where the backup files and how could i know if it did backup?it doesnt give any messege when its done backup and it doesnt take a seconds and then trying to transfer purchases it give this messegewhen i choose store > authorize this computer gives this messege but actually it didnt and gives the same first messege i want to restore my iphone but without loosing applications and information.
