You need to call your service provider and they will walk you through the steps to make it work. It is in the VPN settings. You need technical support.

For sure it works without internet or mobile connection. The BadElf receiver tracks both GPS and GLONASS satellites. I don't know enough about GLONASS (Russian satellites) and GPS (US satellite) coverages to answer about the Middle East. I did a quick Google search for GPS and there is a site called GPS.gov that has coverage maps for you to review. That might help. Also keep in mind, you will want to download whatever base maps you will be using for navigation to your iPhone or iPad when you are in a place that has wireless connectivity.

No radio, no GPS; it does however have geo-locating via Google through wifi

Gps won't work if system is not working. So either you have lost your internet service, or router..... Or you.lost your conection to verizon. My advice would be to call verizon wireless customer service.

The phone might come with GPS set to use A-GPS which requires the data plan. You might try going into the phone's settings and setting it to use the internal GPS only.

you can check the rockchip 3188 forum. last I checked (month or so ago), there is a kitkat upgrade available, but gps functionality was not supported at that time.

It sounds like either 1) your unit has a defect or (2) you have failed to pull out the antenna from the back. If you don't have the antenna out, it will not be able to find satellites. Also, if you are stopping for a short time, you may want to leave it on using the battery so you don't have to wait on it to find the location again.

Like any portable device, it doesn't absolutely need to be connected to the Internet to use the GPS. I'm sure that Google maps isn't the only map product for the tablet. Further, using WiFi or Bluetooth you can probably tether it to your mobile device to get access if you absolutely need it. Just assumptions on my part as I do not have first-hand knowledge of this exact device.

GPS is separate. It has an internal antenna. Call support if you do not get it resolved. I love mine.

Do not have enough information. If unit will not lock on required satellites, it is broken or signal is blocked or you are out of view of satellites.

Hello, I am glad to tell you that you just need to connect the GPS and GSM antenna to the right connector, and find an appropriate place and fix the antennas to make sure it receive signals well. When the green LED indicator on, GPS signal is normal.

It will always require GPS signal, or it won't work. Period. Mine lasted 3 hours. Took it to Verizon and tried another GPS part, and it did not work. Mine was a faulty part. Good luck!

Not to work as a GPS unit in your vehicle, just plug it into the lighter and it works off the satellites. You'll only need an internet connection to register the unit and update maps.

Make sure all your connections are connected correctly and be sure that your antenna is in the right location and seated in the unit. If that doesn't work check to see that your GPS card is seated correctly in the slot on the lower right hand side, in front, of the unit. If you still have problems you may have to return the unit for a replacement.
