Lets discuss the GPS. Who has got it to work?
#7
There was a lot of discussion on the Pine phone GPS here on the forum a year or so ago.

I have a problem with any software that requires an internet connection before the "GPS" can tell me anything..?
(Most computer GPS software utilizes Google help, I'd rather be lost than ask Google)

My old $50 Garmin hand held can tell me where I am, and it has never been connected to the internet.

** As this is supposed to be a "privacy orientated phone" why should my phone need Google and the internet to for the GPS to function ? **

I can understand downloading maps from the internet... but....
