Re: Live Search

On my Treo Pro, I had to go into the Settings in Live Search and configure the GPS. It does not have an Auto setting so I told it my GPS was on Com 4 and now it works.

Re: Live Search

Mine didn't require any kind of configuration... it just worked. But I remember on another phone I had to do "GPS Intermediate Driver", so try that.

"Locate Me" is cell tower triangulation, not GPS. It's for phones that don't have GPS and support that feature (Treo Pro does not).

As others say, just use the intermediate driver.
