Re: Nokia N900 A-GPS Not Working Anymore
 

Do you mean I should have logged as "garage"?

Anyway, the wiki page about supl-proxy and a note on how tu use suppl.google.com has been updated with my first contribution. :cool:

edit: should the title of this thread be changed to "Nokia N900 A-GPS working again"?
N900 is not dead!

Re: Nokia N900 A-GPS Not Working Anymore
 

Interesting that it shouldn't work on Wi-Fi for at least two of you. It has been working for me since day one (the proxy, that is).

Thanks for the wiki edit. I have a comment/observation about the Google part. I wonder if it is really necessary to make an entry for it in /etc/hosts, since this will get resolved normally as part of the A-GPS request anyway.

Also, at least as of now, Maemo still has valid certificates for connecting to Google's supl server,

Re: Nokia N900 A-GPS Not Working Anymore
 

I'd say it is necessary.
Tests made into a building:
I flashed + Installed a fresh CSSU-t. No traces from previous tests.
Changed nokia to google in settings...
Without entry en /etc/hosts, no lock.
Added entry in /etc/hosts
Rebooted
Got a lock (modrana indicates my right pos + sat icon not blinking) in less than 30s.

Also verified, this is correct. No need for google cert at the moment.
Sorry for badly interpreting/repeating inexact infos.

Re: Nokia N900 A-GPS Not Working Anymore
 

Which maps you are using with Modrana? And are you using QML version? For me it won't load any map, just loading... And I have changed the supl.google and also edited the /etc/hosts and restarted dnsmasq. Would really like to get a working navigation on my device. Have now used two years without.

I would just need a map to use in Finland while driving with a car.

No, of course not. What is meant is that accounts are shared across garage and wiki, you should use your garage account when logging in to wiki.
(I assume you know that there are separate garage and TMO accounts and usually people link those together to get karma for TMO postings...)

Re: Nokia N900 A-GPS Not Working Anymore
 

@ Juiceme, Thanks for explaination

@ Maemish, I didnt remember Modrana QML version existance, don't even know what it is.
As maps, I am using OpenStreetMap, Google, sometimes Sat view but actually I don't use mapping nor routing very often.

But I noticed routing doesn't work at the moment...

In your case, getting a lock and displaying maps are two different problems which must be treated separately.

To test your gps/agps, try another map application or the one referred in the wiki as location-test-gui.

About Mordana display staying white, you can try to verify its configuration, launch it from terminal to see the output or even launch it with strace.
-Settings > Connectivity > Location > Network Positioning is supl.google.com, not supl.google.
-How does your /etc/hosts look?
Did you test positionning after rebooting and recheck Settings > Connectivity > Location > Network ? In my device, it sometimes comes back to supl.nokia.com by itself.
Did you try with gprs and wifi?
Is your device in phone mode with the simcard registered and active?

Re: Nokia N900 A-GPS Not Working Anymore
 

/etc/hosts: 127.0.0.2 Nokia-N900 localhost

I forgot, was I supposed to change the Nokia-N900 to something else?

And yes, I have supple.google.com in navigation setup.

Re: Nokia N900 A-GPS Not Working Anymore
 

No, no,
I'd suggest you to reread this thread from here
As Koiruus explained, you should search for an IP for google which suits your geographic area (more or less) and put it into /etc/hosts but don't delete the first line, it is your device!
Your /etc/host could look like this:
About navigation setup, you wrote supple.google.com. It is not "suple" but "supl". I guess it was a typo in your message.

Re: Nokia N900 A-GPS Not Working Anymore
 

Thanks for help. Now I have google maps with a very good location match. And it only took two years to get it. Tried once and a while but always did something wrong.

Now if Sulu will someday in the future have time and strength to make a new debbie image with netsurf 3.9 I think I will get most things I need on this phone.

Next thing to do would be to have dos emulator and have good games (mario type and space invader type) on it. I think I have seen emulator in HAM but how to get games (from where and how to install them on the phone, probably some instructions can be found from the forum) and play - yet unknown stuff for me.

Re: Nokia N900 A-GPS Not Working Anymore
 

emulators and games are the easy part.
there are plenty of n900 game emulators and tons of games on the web to harvest..nintendo, super, mame etc...
of course ...this is where a n900 game gripper would be handy for ease of play.
