Help GPS - No activity?

[Ultimadrago]

Hey again,

I have Reloaded on my Triumph, but I can't seem to find the GPS. When I go into "Car Mode" and press Navigate, it says "No activity" and when I press Places or Maps, it simply won't boot.

Did I need to flash an extra program?

Nevermind, had no clue I had to redownload Google Maps. But does anyone have tips for kicking the gps into gear?

It won't work indoors you could download gps status from the market, sometimes of takes 5 minutes to get you're first lock, after that, you should be fine.

download GPS Injector. Run that first then select the program you want to use for GPS (Like GPS Status or Google Nav).

Outside in clear view of the sky, your phone should see 6-10Satellites in the Northern Hemisphere, and you should establish First Fix in a matter of 40sec or so.

If you cannot get a fix, return the phone.

I haven't tried GPS Injector as of yet, I will give it a whirl I use gps status and usually locks it in pretty quick in the morning for me after a reboot and I am good for the day, as I need gps for my job. Thanks for the advice.

Thanks to both of you! Went outside and used Injector it works much better (Derp).
