LinkBack URL
About LinkBacksI downloaded a few apps that require the use of GPS, and none of them seem to be picking up the GPS signal. Is there a setting I am missing? I click the gps button on, within the "slidedown" menu... but is there a setting elsewhere that I am missing?
Thanks!

05-11-2011 09:23 AMYes.. Which seems to do the same thing as simply clicking the button in the shade/pull down menu.. Still having the same issue.
To clarify I clicked Settings > Location and Security > Standalone GPS Services -

obviously on wifi you will get better and faster lock but 3g should work fine....also check out this video for a tutorial on GPS
