N97 Location Error code 1016

[edson.mobile]

I'm catching a location using the following code below and is showing Error 1016. Does anyone know if I have to put something in my code, because in 5530 it works perfectly.

The code:

var serviceObj = null;

window.onload = init;

// Initializes the widget
function init() {
// Obtain the Location service object
try {
serviceObj = device.getServiceObject("Service.Location", "ILocation");
} catch (ex) {
alert("Service object cannot be found.");
return;
}

// We are interested in basic location information (longitude, latitude
// and altitude) only, so let's define the criteria respectively
var criteria = new Object();
criteria.LocationInformationClass = "BasicLocationInformation";

// Obtain the location information (synchronous)
var result = serviceObj.ILocation.GetLocation(criteria);
var latitude = result.ReturnValue.Latitude;
var longitude = result.ReturnValue.Longitude;

// Display the location
alert("Lat. " + latitude + ", Long. " + longitude);
}


Thank you.

have a look into here: http://tools.ext.nokia.com/wrt/WDL/1...757320B7E.html . 1016 means ServiceTimedOut.

Is there any change for the N97?

For what is the function getLocation in location-sample.js, I do in my code.

Thanks.

I suppose you would get the ServiceTimedOut, when the location fetching takes too long. So first make sure you are outdoors and you have great visibility of the satelites in 3 different directions. Also older firmwares could have slower GPS (though not certain if this is issue with N97), so you could always try updating the device firmware to be the latest one available.

Thanks symbianyucca,

Worked properly, I noticed that the variable "latitude" behaves differently on the device 5530,
because he does not get the value minus your latitude if you have it,
this behavior does not happen in N97.
