HaHa ....
If you cant get Google maps or livesearch to connect then its a problem with your ppc. It takes a while sometimes you might need to go outside. Ill put it in steps.......

#1 Open Google maps, click "Menu",then "use GPS"...
#2 Make sure in the Blue bar across the top of Google maps you see"GPS active(#)".....Keep this running just hit ok DON'T hit the x and close it....
#3 Go into your messages and send a text to yourself with the default code word (GPS) and send. Code word is case sensitive. Meaning if your code word is upper case GPS then lower case gps would not work..
#4 Thats it. Close it out and wait a few seconds and when you receive the text you sent yourself you will see the plugin turn green and it will do its thing,and a few seconds later you'll get your GPS position in a new txt.
#5 go back and close Google maps if you want I leave it run. The GPS still works even without a active internet connection I shut down my data connection and leave Google maps run for the GPS....Here is what the Txt looks like....(Sub Note "Stalkers and Axe murders need not look bellow")
