CALLING ALL E71 USERS. Those who has updated the firmware with 200.21.118! Urgent!

I just updated mine today. Guess what, the new firmware crapped out my GPS!!! Used to be really sensitive an all, with A-GPS it locks to the satellite in 10 secs. Now, zilch!!

I have done two firmware updates before using Nokia Software update. from the first release..to the november 08 release to the latest 200.21.118. Now the GPS is totally useless. See the screenshot below. Compare to my brother's E66 on the Nov08 firmware at the same spot.

Here's the test:
Both phones enable A-GPS. Restart phone. Enter GPS--> Satellite Signal Status at the same time. Wait 1 minute.

Results:
E66--> locked in less than 1 minute.
E71--> 5 minutes down...still no signal!!!

All E71 users with the new firmware, can you please confirm that the GPS is working as good as it was before upgrade? Mine used to be performing the same as the E66 shown in the pic! Please help!!!!!!

My number is 0163310183. Pls pm/sms/call me. Thanks sad.gif

Go to Menu -> Tools -> Settings -> Genaral -> Positioning -> Positioning Server

Check if your access point is still defined. I updated mine and the access point is gone. I redefine it and it works again
