Okay....I've search for a while now and haven't found an answer. I'm trying to use google maps or bing with the internal gps on my touch pro 2. I can't get any satelite locks though. I have the gps set to com(4). but nothing seems to be working. Any help is appreciated.

I'm not sure if you tried it or not, but you should have the program "QuickGPS" you need to start it and let it download the satellite information. Hope this helps.

What SJS said should help. But my settings for sprint using google is gps settings is "managed by windows", comport 0, baud rate 4800. It works great!!!

i had the same issue last night, run quickgps and it will solve your prob. quickgps is in Start\tools\quickgps, then scroll down and hit download.
