Re: GPS on XV6900 Without Data

Using WMMiniGPS, I get my location!

Using iGuidance shows sat 6/7 but the lat and lon coordinates jump around. If I enter a destination, it shows I'm "Outside of Map Area" / "Off Road." I've left it to see if it just needs time to lock but nothing happens. I also installed Garmin Mobile XT but my location keeps jumping around Africa. Any thoughts on how to get the GPS to communicate with the software?
You're really close. The only thing missing is WM GPS. You should be able to find it in the GPSGate Input pull down list.
