GPS & Google Maps problem

Firefighter51 · #1 (**permalink**) 06-11-2010, 08:29 AM

I recently got my TP2 and just downloaded google maps for it. When I use the GPS on it, it gives me my location within like 2100 meters. It is never close at all to my real location. The same program on my Mogul was always within like 50 feet. Does anyone know what I can do to make it more accurate? Thanks.

mine is like that if I am indoors using towers only to find my location. Outside (in the car), it gets 7-9 gps signals and it is very accurate.

While in Google Maps, tap Menu then tap Options then Tap Use GPS.

It should now seek the Sats and pin point your location.....
