A-GPS not working correctly
Hi
When I'm trying to use AGPS, the results are baaad. When I'm in Lublin, Poland (I would make a google maps screenshot, but I'm experiencing technical difficulties), ovi maps tell me that I'm in Szadek, near Łódź, Poland. It's central part of our country, about 250km from Lublin. I tried supl.nokia.com and supl.google.com but no effect. What can I do to repair it? Thanks in advance |
Re: A-GPS not working correctly
The first thing I would do is to try and isolate the problem: can you try one of the alternate GPS mapping programs, say, Mappero or something? If the problem goes away, then the fault must lie in Ovi maps; if not, it is something more related to the GPS data itself...

Re: A-GPS not working correctly
What exactly is your problem?
To use AGPS, you need to be connected to internet (via WLAN or GPRS/UMTS). AGPS will only fetch data to show an approximate location (few 100m) and load some satellite data (almanach) to provide faster satfix for GPS. The reason for displaying Szadek is, as you already discovered, that it is the central part of your country. This is the first location chosen by Maps, when there is no valid GPS signal. |
Re: A-GPS not working correctly
I AM connected to WLAN
The expected outcome is being detected in Lublin The actual outcome is that I'm being detected 250 km from where I am |

Re: A-GPS not working correctly
Try the following:
shutdown your device and remove the battery for a few seconds, reinsert, boot up and try again. Hope this helps (as it did for some of us). |

Re: A-GPS not working correctly
I was having problems too, I recently flashed my phone and my gps wasn't working, it was showing Spain. So I changed the location to supl.google.com and now it's working fine. :)

Re: A-GPS not working correctly
Yeah, I had exactly the same problem with cell location in Poland using supl.nokia.com server. It was showing "Szadek" localisation despite I was several hundred km away from that place... Changing localisation server to supl.google.com did miracle, now it works perfectly :-) It is shame that Nokia's own server won't work as it should on their own hardware :-(

Re: A-GPS not working correctly
Now its working fine. I bet it was using the cached localization and first after change it used the cached one.
Thanks for all @sylwiusz: I do agree with you. And now imagine: year 2012: you need to reflash using images from samsung.com :) |
