You shouldn't be expected to use a network connection with an onboard GPS.

Based on the documentation of the GPS software, the GPS can run in four
different modes,
Interesting, do you know if the gps runs through these 4 modes when starting up
ovi maps? Or if you can say what order it goes through?
Thanks.

If you enable GPS and don't enable Network Positioning, I would

when you're trying to get a GPS lock?
Hi there,
I have been trying out my new N900 for the past few days and overall I really
like it.
The only problem I have left with it is the GPS. I have yet to get a regular

any diag tools. At least on the Symbian OS there is a compass app which will

This is a bug in OVI maps. I think the link has already been given.
The problem is that OVI opens the device to get a lock, but then gives up and
closes it just before it can get a lock. It cycles doing this every few
minutes, but unless you have an alternate signal, it's not enough time for
