local google on 8700g

[mbrunton]

Does anyone else have a problem using local google on the tmobile 8700?

I get an error stating it can't download the maps, check your network connection.

Not I said the fly.

Ensure that the app has permission to access the intArweb.

I have it installed on a 8700c using Tmobile and have not had any issues. Did you check your browser configuration?? Make sure you have all of the check boxes checked.

should i be using my blackberry browser or internet browser?

[dc/dc]

Browser has nothing to do with the Google Local app.

Options > Advanced Options > Applications > Google Local > Edit Permissions

Make sure All of the options under connections are set to allow.

[mbrunton]

everthing is set to allow except keystroke and browser filters and those can't be changed

still doesn;t work.

any ideas?

This seems to be what he's talking about. I haven't tried it myself.

If you are not on a BES, you need your APN settings correct for your carrier to access the internet. In my tips doc, I have them for some carriers.

Forgot about that.

For T-Mobile, which I assume you have with an 8700g, enter wap.voicestream.com in the APN box in TCP/IP settings.

I'll give it a try. The bookmarking feature seems nice.
