GPRS and GPS are completely different.

Which GPS receiver are you using, and what settings are being used for GPS settings within TomTom?

The GPRS setting should be on it already if not speak to 02 and the can resend the settings.

For GPS setting you need to select GPS settings from the preferences menu. When you select configure you shoud choose the option for other cabled NMEA. Baud rate 4800. Gps on navigator.

GPS and GPRS are 2 different parts of your system. One has no bearing on the other. Please don't comfuse the 2.

See:
GPRS
GPS

You could have a faulty GPS chipset. If this is a new phone, then you should be getting a replacement. Assuming you have phone insurance with O2 or it's within the first 30 days of purchase. Also, GPS will rarely work inside. Once TomTom is set correctly, then go outside and you should see the error NO GPS SIGNAL. If you see this then your GPS settings are correct, and you simply need to wait for a GPS lock.

You can always get settings sent from the O2 website for your Nav unrelated issue of GPRS - http://www.o2.co.uk/services/ota4/input1
However, if you can use MMS and browse the net using O2/O2 Active, then your GPRS settings are working.

02 GPRS for PAYG has always been problematic. I'm sure there are some post here about it. You dont need the GPRS settings to get a GPS signal though its unrelated.
