Hello,

I am a french teacher in a high school of Nancy.

I've been using Qt (under Linux and Windows) for several years within my 
course about programming with my students.

I'm now testing the new Qt Mobility API with a Nokia N95 8g mobile 
phone. I'm working with the 4.6.2 version of Qt.

I've made a small application which is asking the phone about several of 
its specifications (manufacturer, model, IMEI, power state, level of its 
battery, etc.) and it works fine.

I want now to use the Location API and my first test application tries 
to obtain the satellites detected by the GPS receiver.

The receiver is OK (all of the others standard location applications of 
my phone are working very well) but my application doesn't "see" any 
satellite : the QGeoSatelliteInfoSource::createDefaultSource() static 
method allways return 0 !!

And when i want to test the 
QGeoPositionInfoSource::createDefaultSource() static method, my 
application crashes !!

I don't know where there is a problem...

I want also to indicate that I have problems when I want to install the 
Qt Mobility examples provided : I can create the sis files with the 
"createpackage" command, but my phone don't want to install them and 
gives me the message :"required application access not granted".

I do not have this problem with standard Qt applications...

Thank you for your help which will be wery usefull...

Best regards
