In Google Maps, do you have GPS to be managed by Windows?

Re: google maps not finding satellites

I had the exact same problem ... until yesterday when I ran across a post recommending to change my radio rom. I flashed the following radio, and it worked immediately.

1.03.09V

That's the Verizon rom found in the 'radio rom' sticky. You can find a FAQ about upgrading your radio rom in that thread.

Hope that fixes you up as it did for me. I was pulling my hair out for days and through many rom flashes until I figured that out. Good luck.

Use the Verizon 1.03.09V. I'm also on an Altell TP after the Verizon merger and it's exactly what I had to use to fix the same GPS problem you are having.
