Ok, I recently switched from Sprint over to alltel and the alltel touch pro can't get a gps lock at all. The Sprint one got quick locks, the alltel one sees the satellites sometimes, usually only 1 or 2 but is never able to lock onto it with a strong signal, or lock at all for that matter. I've tried it with the stock rom and now i'm on psyki v3 and same thing. I checked all the basics:
Location settings ON
GPS program port 4
Hardware port NONE
Baud 4800
let windows manage
....all that good stuff. Done. I've went thru the entire Alltel super fast lock-on thread and set up the server suggested for alltel and still nothing. I then exchanged the phone for another one at the store and told them that I thought the gps was dead on it and the second one is doing the exact same thing. This is my 3rd touch pro and i've never had a problem with the gps whatsoever, i've been using Garmin XT and google maps and they've always worked perfect, just not on this one from alltel for some reason. I don't think I could have a second defective gps chip, that is if the first one really was defective, who knows. Any ideas? I use gps alot and this is driving me crazy, starting to wish i didn't get rid of my sprint tp
oh, btw, i've downloaded the quickgps data and that didn't help, also gpsviewer can't prime the chip either, finds satellites and drops them, never locks.
