GPS settings in Nokia 5233

[amitkr85]

Hello,

I recently bought a Nokia 5233 and installed OVI maps to use GPS service but I was told that the GPS chip itself is not there in 5233. Is it correct? If not(I hope it is not ) then please tell me what is the necessary settings required to use the GPS service?


Regards,
Amit

I too have bought this phone yesterday & was not able to find that.

I checked again nokia site after buying, Nokia never says that the 5233 has a GPS. , but other forums/blogs seems to be mis-leading.

Thanks,

Well the Nokia 5233 doesnt have GPS chip ,so you will see only 2 positioning methods(Bluetooth GPS and Network based).
In contrast to 5800 which has 4 methods( Integrated GPS ,Assisted GPS ,Bluetooth and NEtwork).
Even the 5200 has integrated GPS chip,not the case with 5233 .
