Hi aristide,

I've just tried TMJ in the LG KC910 emulator and the GPS did seem to work okay, although only after ticking the Menu/Settings/Other Settings/Int-GPS: Basic Connection option. (Restart after changing this option).

Does that make any difference?

(Incidentally, I think the SecurityException @ OLW error *should* be unrelated to the GPS problem - its just a minor bug that might appear occasionally on startup...)

Hi aristide,

What is listed in the Text Screen/GENERAL/GPS Status field?

The 'GPS 6 Unavailable' doesn't necessarily indicate an error, though I am a bit stuck for ideas to try. When TMJ starts the Internal GPS it initially 'asks' it to provide a very accurate signal. If the phone can't provide this amount of accuracy it returns 'unavailable', and TMJ will then ask it for a slightly less accurate signal. There are 7 steps in this process, so if you're not getting a 'GPS 7 Unavailable' error then it suggests that the phone is 'trying' to provide at least a basic location. (Incidentally, with 'Int-GPS: Basic Connection' ticked the first 5 items are bypassed. If you untick this you may find that you get 'GPS 1..2..3..etc unavailable' in the log).

If the GPS Status is given as 'Int GPS Signal Invalid' then it might just be that you need to give the GPS more time to get a fix.

Incidentally, which version did you install? If it was the Generic or Nokia N95 Version then it might be worth trying the Sony Ericsson JP8+GPS version instead...

Hi,

I got it to work by unchecking Connect Automatically, and then fiddling around with connect/disconnect a bit. If it doesn't work the first time, keep trying connect/disconnect until the GPS status on the GENERAL page says "Int GPS Signal OK". For me, it works with both Basic checked and unchecked, and with both aGPS and GPS.

Hope this helps.
