    I drive for long distances , and i noticed that while am charging the phone there are no GPS signal , but once i remove the charger , the signal is there in couple of seconds .
    is it some software or hardware restriction ?

    I have this problem too. Without charger works perfect, with charger the GPS signal is lost many times.

    I don't think it's software related problem...I don't have problems with GPS while charging.

    IIRC the FM transmitter is disabled while charging, wonder if that's related.

    This cannot be true. Without plugging into my car charger my battery will only last a couple of hours on gps navigation. I always plug it in when using gps.

    I had the same problem with N9, but some people if they use the OEM car charger, there would be no problem, might be there is some specific connection required?

    I used to have the same problem with N900 too, but it was later fixed either by a firmware update or some tweak I found here.

    I dont have any of the issues that you say. I can use navigation, listen to music and charge all at once.

    Am using the Nokia car charger that came with the device , used others , and those made in china ones still nothing , probably it is something related to security issues , as you know all GPS chips stop receiving signal on high attitudes and high speeds , for forbidding using them in missiles or anything else . but while charging ? comeon !

    It's not app related, I used the CloudGPS and gpsmeefo to see the raw data, as soon as I plugged in the charging cable, it lost the signal.
