I need some help with getting my GPS on my Blackberry Tour working

When I launch the GPS app on my Blackberry Tour, it always says Acquiring Satellites!

How do I fix this !

Are you indoors or outdoors? and which application are you using?

Both.
I am using the application that came with my Blackberry Tour that is called Maps.

Make sure the GPS is turned on by going to options -> advanced options -> GPS and make sure GPS Service is set to Location ON. If it is on then I have no idea why it won't aquire a signal. Mine aquires one rather quickly, within 10-15 seconds if i'm outdoors.

I've heard the GPS app doesn't work on nTelos network.

What network (Carrier) are you on?

[denison1g]

Oh, that may be the case. I'm using Sprint

And your GPS works?


Hmm, I'm probably going to have to call Tech Support tomorrow...and see about this issue
