Hello,

I have the following problem: I cant access GPS location wiht my blackberry 8800 (system 4.2) and GoogleMaps 2.1.0. I can access the gps from BalckberryMap and go to advanced seeting and refresh my gps location. So I know that the gps connection overall is working.

Now, when I go to settings for application GoogleMaps (from options/Advances/Applications), it tells me Deny for Location (GPS). So, indeed sounds normal that I can't access it ;-(((.

BUT I can't change it (don't have the rights). My administrator don't acknowledge that they could block it (we have certainly restricted rights on our BBs). We went all the way to do a wipe/reset, and still blocked. So, is it rights imposed to my account or a weird combination of version/local lock ?

Could somebody give me a hint about where on hearth (or beyong...) this setting could be stored and imposed to me ? I would fw this information to my admin to push them a bit.

Others in the comany have it unlocked, so it does not seem like a general setting....

Thanks if you can help.

Pascal.

Verify whether or not you have an active IT Policy on your BB:

Options->Security Options->General Settings. Scroll to the bottom.

"IT Policy Name" RETS Global", Last updated xxxx
Secure GC Enables.

But what is odd (I will check one more time) is that I beleive not everybody has this block on GoogleMap in the company ? Again, to be checked again. If this was the case, I would understand it better.
Does not make a lot of sense to me since BBMap is not blocked for GPS access. Also my IT denies that there is such a IT block ;-(((.

Does not make any sense.

Thanks,
