Incubated · #1 (**permalink**) 10-11-2008, 08:22 PM

i tried making the gps work, but i seemed to have failed, ignorantly.

i followed the steps. installed all the stuff, wrote on the phone, successfully, but when i go to google maps, it searches forever, and my location does not work. any idea whhere i could have gone wrong?

OMFG.

You really need to stop asking the same question in 2, 3, 4 threads. People who are knowledgable on the subjects might be more inclined to answer when they're not annoyed. You're not that new, you should know this isn't the way to approach your problems. As a community we try to answer your questions in a timely matter, but this is rediculous.

Now I'm going to be annoyed and tell you to use the search function, as this is addressed all the time, including in other threads you've posted in.

Sorry, mine works fine so I don't have a lot of recommendations for you. Maybe try reading that thread again and see if you missed anything?

ill try, does your gps work at all? the sprint one. try using gps from your programs setting. no google maps. also hows your signal strength?

my signal is fine. i updated to newest prl also, and am on juicy 2.5

google maps can find stuff on the map, like if i type a location it will go there, but when i press activate gps, it seeks satelites without success, seeking0 satelites...

i ma on telus, not sprint, and when i had the stock rom i dint give telus navigator a try, now i don't have it. i think i followed the instructions quite well. i wrote that stuff to the phone and i know its there because whe ni read from it again, its no longer 0 . 0. 0. 0. so the settings are saved. after i did the settings, and it wastn't working, i installed teh cab file, but also didn't change much.

quick gps seems fine, though
