Honestly I didn't do anything weird to it. I installed the Google app and every time I launch it, it locks on within 5 seconds. MUCH fast than it would have with GPS alone.

We have ways of making you talk....

[GpCaptMandrake]

Where you actually able to get it to get satellite lock? Or was it just using the cell tower triangulation thing? Mine says GPS Unavailable?

It seems too close to be a cell tower triangulation. I'm within 100'.

[MvExplorer]

Are you SURE that its actual GPS and not just cell tower triangulation? Is it DEAD on to your location or is it off a little bit?

I'm just hesitant to get my hopes up here...

[MvExplorer]

ah you beat me to it. What are your settings? and you said bb maps does not work?

[GpCaptMandrake]

As far as I know, the rest of the Storm-owning world has the opposite problem! Maybe you've got a bizzaro-Storm

Weird. Just tell me where to look at settings... I'll tell you anything you want to know!

[MPSmith1]

It seems too close to be a cell tower triangulation. I'm within 100'.

I've heard that if you have a blinking blue light as your location, that means the program is using cell towers. Do you have that?

[GpCaptMandrake]

I've heard that if you have a blinking blue light as your location, that means the program is using cell towers. Do you have that?

Yeah... I do have the blinking blue light. But it's VERY close to accurate. If it's a cell triangulation it's the most accurate I've ever seen.

I might go for a walk around the neighborhood.. now you have me wondering.

[GpCaptMandrake]

Ok I'm going to go for a brief walk. I'll post whether it locks on or not in 15 minutes.

[MPSmith1]

Weird. Just tell me where to look at settings... I'll tell you anything you want to know!

Check options/advanced options/GPS. What do you see for:

GPS data source
GPS services
Location aiding

ALso, under options/advanced options/applications/google maps, then click BB/edit permissions, do all 18 items show "allow"? If not, which ones don't?

Thanks!!!

[MPSmith1]

Yeah... I do have the blinking blue light.

Sorry my friend, but my highly un-educated guess is that you have a good cell triangulation. Now I'm wondering why BBMaps isn't working for you.

At least you'll get some exercise!!!

[eth555]

I've heard that if you have a blinking blue light as your location, that means the program is using cell towers. Do you have that?

Mine has a blinking blue dot, with a lighter blue larger circle around it. It says accuracy withing 3800 meter, if I click the blue dot icon in the lower right hand corner (Landscape). When I click the icon it also says GPS unavailable.

[dhendriksen]

I would bet that the people that have GPS working either A) don't really have it working and think they do but it really cell tower triangulation or B) they have VZ Nav installed and running in the back ground. I paid for VZ Nav for one day on my Curve and if I had VZ Nav running in the background then the GPS worked on Google Maps. Once I closed VZ Nav google maps couldn't use the GPS anymore.

Hopefully it is just a problem on Googles end and they need to update it to work with the storm. That is what I am hoping.

[GpCaptMandrake]

Well first off it's effing cold out in Pittsburgh at the moment so I hope you all appreciate this.

You might be right though. My location didn't move as it would with a GPS lock. I'm going to have to test this more tomorrow.

[3083joe]

It Work everyone. Just follow gzen1's directions. I do this with every app. I have had not problems. Only time it is off is when I'm in doors!!

[MPSmith1]

That's great! I really am wanting mine to work too. Could you answer the same questions I asked the Cap'n?

ALso, under options/advanced options/applications/google maps, then click BB/edit permissions, do all 18 items show "allow"? If not, which ones don't?

Also, could you click the blue dot on the lower right corner of the Google Maps screen and let us know what it says?

Thanks

Thanks for takin' one for the team...

[dirtyjersey]

Sorry if this has already been answered... but my GPS worked with BBmaps outside... but inside it just says searching for satellites.

Is this standard? Will other apps in the future (like yelp, yellow pages type apps) be able to use this to determine your location? im confused.

[crwolf79]

This thread is ********. It doesn't work. "Location within 3000 meters" isn't GPS. It is the location of your cell tower. BB Maps works with GPS. It would be great if GPS worked for Google maps, but for all of you who are following this thread hoping it works, let me help you out...

GPS IS NOT WORKING IN GOOGLE MAPS!
Cell tower location is. Learn the difference, then post. And yes, all of my permissions are set to "Allow". Flame away.

So far, the only flaming in this thread is your post.

I agree with you. Before Google Maps works (standalone) with the Storm, Google will have to add the appropriate programing to tap-into the GPS chip. The storm is unlike most devices (including Sprints Curve)

[Stang68]

I tried installing Google Maps onto my Storm but now I cannot find it! It says it is there when I look at my list of applications, but the actual app is nowhere to be found!

[scougarb]

In the extended menu click on 'Applications'... it's in there

[YeBerry]

quick question. there are two BB storm devices. both devices have google maps installed. is there a way for device #1 to track device #2 on google maps?

[scougarb]

k... anyone out there a developer or know how to get some information to one of the developers? I cleared my event log and then set it to debug level. I then started google maps, tried to find my location, and then copied the contents of the event log. I repeated the steps for BB Maps (since the gps actually works in that program) for comparison.

I would bet that the people that have GPS working either A) don't really have it working and think they do but it really cell tower triangulation or B) they have VZ Nav installed and running in the back ground. I paid for VZ Nav for one day on my Curve and if I had VZ Nav running in the background then the GPS worked on Google Maps. Once I closed VZ Nav google maps couldn't use the GPS anymore.

Hopefully it is just a problem on Googles end and they need to update it to work with the storm. That is what I am hoping.

that answers my question.... google maps was working then stopped, but know I know why, I had VZ Nav running
