N97 + Maps 3.01 no gps signal and crash

[ Edited ]

On maps 2.0, N97 works perfectly.

 

Then I upgraded to Maps 3.0, GPS gets cutting off, so navigation is not useable, and cant get GPS fix/ signal easy. Even in open areas, need wait for 15 minutes and need to move the **bleep** n97 around to have some GPS signal.

 

Then yesterday i upgraded to Maps 3.01, No GPS signal at all! And when I press Options > Tools > Settings > Navigation maps crashed and goes back to standby screen.

 

Well, with all the bugs accumulating of the N97, we can burn this piece of **bleep**.

did you try this version? it seems to work much much better on my phone. maps 3.0 or 3.1 were a total waste for me. but this beta release actually seems to do its job

Thanks, that did the trick a bit, at least i have half gps signal (never full) but the GPS signal often cut off. And it didnt crash while pressing navigation.

 

"So better than nothing". And to think I said this for a 600 bucks (!) device.

 

Note, the beta version is V 3.03.
