Hi All

I have downloaded the latest V12 software and AFAIK i have the latest edition of nokia maps. when i access maps i get no gps position.

But it does give me the detailed description of my journey and its shows on the maps.

How can i get a GPS position?

with V.12 you shold get great GPS pickup times! but the first time may be a bit slow.

ive found that if someone calls me even for a short period of time while im actually using the maps function, whenever i finish the call i have my position on GPS, its because the signal masts help your phone locate itself va triangulation.

hope this helps
