mine doesn't seem like working...

I tried it only once when I first updated and it worked then. I will test it again for you when I get home later.

guys, wanna ask something. if im using nokia drive offline, andturned on location, is it still eating data connection?

no it wont eat your data connection. but you have to download the map first lah...

just tried, its working fine. maybe you could try restoring your phone top pre-tango and then updating again..or it could be your data connection?

Hi Lumias,

I'm Lumia 710 user; really frustrated with the GPS issue since day one. After reading through the solution suggested in this forum & nokia forum, i try my luck sent it to be fix at NCC @ Plaza Berjaya... untill today, it's my 3rd time went there but sadly facing hesitation from NCC to rectify this GPS issue..





I'd told them to refer my problem on this forum thread & even nokia support discussion forum,.but they seem to ignore it, they said info from the Internet is not reliable
I'd even told them how GPS works( consist of A-GPS and GPS(phone+satellite) and how it is differ), but the technician said by right A-GPS/data plan is faster than GPS Satellite.
I showed them screenshot provided by dausjkach& GPSinfo app, but then they said it's 3rd party software, not nokia,.so they not entertaining it.
Today, I asked them to have a ride with me to prove them it's not working, but they hesitate because of traffic jam. They said it's fixed & should working fine. Then i prove to them by walking myself around bukit bintang for an hour while navigating through Nokia Drive,.and as expected, it still not fixed since GPSinfo only display A-GPS instead of Full GPS mode. Then, i send it back to NCC & ask them nicely to refer to internet on this issue because I believe this is hardware issue..

I dont know what else to do after this,.any suggestion

Who did you speak to ? The cs agent on the desk or the technician ?

The first 2 visit, only speak to CS on the desk,.malay girl & then indian guy.
The 3rd visit, the malay CS ask the technician to come out to handle me, which happen to be a chines girl.

wow....and one would think after so many of us going there that they would know what to do already...


Try going to the main office at Amcorp mall if im not mistaken?? maybe they are a little more open minded there

bro isone, sorry to hear that from you too but am glad to have a friend/company ,

anyway i plan to go there (Nokia care) by the end of my warranty (Apr 13)
anyway since they are dragging this issue so i think better go they earlier.

maybe we could meetup someday, by the way i think you are being too soft to them, we should be nice during the first or second visit but till the third visit problem still not solved?! it's time to our patience/manners. aside

Before that, I went to One Utama..seems no hope, I tried Plaza Berjaya seems I assumed they have experience on this issue..but dissapointed
Btw chonglol, u repair ur phone @ Plaza Berjaya right? They change ur motherboard?

I plan if NCC call me within this week to pickup phone but the issue still not solve, maybe we could meetup at NCC together to rectify this GPS issue.
Maybe any forumer here that has functional GPS on their Lumia can joint us to prove to NCC d different between working Lumia GPS & defect one

yup, they changed it eventually, after multiple visits

Hi. Does this phone still have the GPS navigation problem as reported here?

=|

Also, does the phone has standalone GPS? Because it was listed as A-GPS, so I wonder if the navigation can be used in standalone mode OR offline without the need for mobile network assist.

I think it will depend on your luck...some people's GPS worked fine out of box..

Yes, the phone (if working properly) supports full GPS in offline mode with Nokia drive.

My patient has shown the result; finally after 3 visit to NCC, they rectified this GPS issue by changing the motherboard
Now i can see "Full GPS mode" instead of "A-GPS mode" on GPSinfo apps. My Nokia Drive/Maps can detect my location accurately. My Lumia's back on track

congrats bro isone, now i am alone again...huhuhu, i think better go 2 months before warranty expired since they are dragging this...btw your total 3 visits took how long?

I spent 2 weeks in total(4 visit in total). Better you just send it for repairing now instead of waiting until the last minute or else just hope NCC still remember this issue

yeah thanks, so it's berjaya plaza right?

Yup good luck

my lumia 710 stil have GPS problem since bought last may.. but i didnt know when to repair it .. because if i want to repair it.. only can post it to NCC then wait at least 2 weeks to get it back...

im live in terengganu.
