Why does my BlackVue DR750S-2CH camcorder's GPS data only shows "Unknown Location" even when I'm connected to a strong cellular signal and the device is set to record location data?

Even with a strong cellular signal, the GPS signal strength might not be sufficient for accurate location determination. This can happen if there are obstacles between your vehicle and the satellites, such as tall buildings or heavy foliage. Try to move to an open area with a clear view of the sky. Satellite Availability**: The GPS system relies on a network of 24 operational satellites orbiting the Earth. If some of these satellites are not in view, it can affect location accuracy. Check the BlackVue app's GPS status to see if all the necessary satellites are being tracked. GPS Antenna Position**: Make sure that the GPS antenna is installed correctly and not obstructed by any objects inside the vehicle. A poorly positioned antenna can lead to weak signal reception, resulting in "Unknown Location" errors. Cellular Signal Interference**: Cellular signals can sometimes interfere with GPS signals, causing location accuracy issues. If you're driving near cellular towers or other sources of interference, it might affect your GPS data. BlackVue Firmware Issues**: It's possible that there's a firmware issue with your BlackVue device. Try updating the firmware to the latest version using the BlackVue app or website. Device Settings**: Double-check that location recording is enabled and set to use cellular signals for GPS data. You can do this by accessing the BlackVue app and navigating to the settings menu. Physical Interference**: In rare cases, physical interference from other devices in your vehicle can cause GPS issues. Try to identify any potential sources of interference and move them away from the GPS antenna. To troubleshoot further, I recommend checking the following:

* Ensure that your BlackVue device is properly calibrated for GPS use. Check if there are any firmware updates available for your device. Try using a different GPS antenna or relocating the existing one to improve signal strength. If you're still experiencing issues, try resetting your BlackVue device to its default settings. If none of these troubleshooting steps resolve the issue, it might be worth contacting BlackVue support for further assistance.
