Hello,
once you are in the where am I, app, hit your menu key, and make sure
that you click on system location, make sure both, use wireless
network, and use GPS satellite, are checked.
this should work, to test it out, you can go back to the m.a. home
screen, and then click on where am I, if it tells you address
unavailable, then move your arrow key down once, and see if that will
help you get the address where you're located.
you can also download a good app, called blind locater, and hope that
works for you.
good luck.

Hi all
I have had no success with GPS on my android. I have been to settings to
make sure it is on. The two likely settings were one about using
satelites and one that mentions assisted gps. The first says it uses
more battery life. I've tried checking these. Do I need to check
anything else? I have been outside in the freezing cold wind but still
when I try the MA where am I it simply says address not available. I
have not had any luck with look ahead either so am wondering if it is a
setting I still have not got right to start with.
Cheers
Paula.
