SUPL positioning?

 This really is a dreadful phone!

SUPL helps to find the GPS location faster by using Internet connection to help to GPS process.

Re: SUPL positioning?

supl is the positioning server used to find location while using GPS.

Re: SUPL positioning?

Where did you see this in the Menu?  I have never seen it and I thought I had been through all the menu items.

Re: SUPL positioning?

damned if i can find it now! I DEFFO did see it tho while playing about! I agree with next post tho in that I also read this phone does not have GPS. My last phone ( 6700 - great phone tho!) said it did but it wasnt possible to make any use from it as it took about 30 mins to get a position! LOL!
( my Audi car GPS is 12 years old & gets a position within 5 seconds!)
So for that reason Im really not bothered even if it DOES have GPS - was just wondering what this meant.

Thanks

Re: SUPL positioning?

SUPL positioning is available in personal config settings menu under config setting but my ques is why give it in settings if the phone isn't gps enabled?
