ChrisM 8:25 Location: Phone Model: | Sounds like your Bluetooth GPS thingy might be faulty... :-( What make/model is your phone? Have you got any other GPS applications on your phone? If not, there are plenty of free ones that you could download. Try one of those and see if they have trouble connecting to the GPS. Also, if you have a computer with bluetooth, you could see if that can see your GPS device... Good Luck, Chris. | |
Stephen 8:45 Location: Phone Model: | Also, try fully resetting the BT device by removing its battery temporarily - I've occasionally had strange things happen with mine and this usually fixes it... | |
Alec 21:16 | how would i remove its battery lol. it has two tiny screws, its definatly not the phone btw | |
Stephen 23:12 Location: Phone Model: | Hi Alec, Well, there aren't a lot of other options!! Thing is, if it was working fine for a few days I can't see how TMJ can be the issue (especially after resetting/reinstalling), and if its the same on a couple of phones then hopefully that rules them out too, which perhaps only leaves the GPS device!? Might be worth finding a small screwdriver - the battery might be fairly easily detached once inside the case. Or else leave it on until the battery goes dead (won't work if it has an auto-shutoff 'feature' though!)!? Cheers, Stephen | |
