        Hello!

        I bought a used Gigaset Volla Phone X and I want to use GPS to navigate.

        I've enabled location service, but no App can get my location.
        Even GPS toolkit can't get the coordinates.

        How can I further diagnose that?

        kind regards
        Marco

          Hello! Are you aware that UT does not have A-GPS, and so the first fix will take considerably longer than you may be expecting?

          Is currently using an Op5t
          Also owns an Op1, a BQ E4.5 and an Xperia X, as well as a BQ tablet and a Pinetab2. Please, someone... make it stop.

            ok, so that means no navigation at all?

              @p4u GPS works with UT but is a bit slower as Moem said as we do not have agps at present.
              To get a first location make sure the screen is set to not turn off (system settings, battery) then open the app you want to use and allow location services and leave close to a window or with a clear view of the sky.
              It will take approx 10-20 mins for first fix and be quicker after that.

                No, it does not mean that... it means taking extra time for the first fix, and then it will work fine as long as you do use it regularly.
                We don't have two different navigation apps just to keep app developers busy, we have them because they are quite usable. Try them both, and see which one you like best.
