ad l garmin mobile xt is not detecting my nokia 5800 internal gps HELPides? - ad l
Best Answer: yep.. it misbehaved on a Samsung i780 I played with also. What I did, was to go the GPS data rate settings. It defaulted to 4800 Baud, Changing to any othet rate (eg higher) and saving that setting, seemed to resolve it. It does not seem to matter what the rate is, I even set it back to 4800. Clearly changing the rate enables something.. and make sure there is no other app (like Google maps) running.. as it will keep hold of the GPS input. DONT install a port sharing program, they are a pain to setup and get working - use one app at a time, and close it the other down (exit). - AnYing
