Yeah.. It's a new feature.. It's like Google's 'Street View' but from a bird's eye...

How are you testing for the cell-tower positioning feature?

My GPS works with Live Search and so does the locate me feature.
I love using that feature as a poor man's Tomtom.

Check this out for a breakdown of GPS and aGPS so that we are all clear what is what... GPS works fine for all of us for Live Search when finding our current GPS position...

Re: Live Search "Locate Me" feature disabled?

To be very clear, what I am asking about is the "Locate Me" feature of the newest Live Search release, which uses cell-towers to guesstimate your approximate position.

Re: Live Search "Locate Me" feature disabled?

Hey, all of you people that have voted that they have the Sprint CDMA TP and Live Search "Locate Me" (which uses cell towers) working - are you running stock ROMs? Did you have to do anything to enable it?
