Do you have a SIM card inserted?
Please describe your steps, and the exact behaviour (Do you get a popup to connect? How long do you wait? Where are you located? In a building, outside?)

yeah i think it's a well known bug of OVI map. Andre when will this map bug be fixed? I currently have to use an alternative way (location-test app) to get a locked on the satellites then switch to Ovi Map after.
To answer his question above!
Try install Location-test app from the Extra-testing. It will help make your GPS connected to your map.
edit:
i just emailed him and gave him the app.
