I have issue with Nokia Maps & Drive App.

I update my N9 64GB (Product Code: 059J1V4) to PR 1.3 with a PC and I still can't use my Maps & Drive app because it stays in "Waiting for position" and the "Looking for GPS" forever.

I had this problem since with the PR 1.0, PR 1.2 and PR 1.3, they stay in "Waiting for position" and the "Looking for GPS" and the navigation never works.. Only with PR1.1, I was able to run correctly the GPS.

Any clue how to fix the problem?
I used to have this problem ("Looking for satellites" in Drive, from PR1.0->PR1.2)and one guy at Nokia told me that the problem could lie in the antenna printed on the case. Before knowing about this I have had mainboard replaced but didn't help, after telling nokia care that this could be the solution, I got the case/chasis replaced and it now works as it should. If you did have GPS working in PR1.1 then I don't know if this info is helpful at all, you could give it a try though.


Oh and this thread is for N900 btw
