I had a Mogul for several month's but they kept breaking without any of my help. So after 4 replacement phones for various reasons (keyboard back light will not function etc..) I said screw the mogul I want something small and light, so a few weeks ago I got the Sprint Touch free of charge. Here is were my problem is I can not get the GPS to get a satellite in Google maps. Thinking it was a rom problem I upgraded to the newest version 3.03.651.4 and still nothing Please help if you can.

Thanks

I'm curious to know this as well. The sprint guy that sold me my HTC touch said they have GPS built-in yet I cannot get google maps to find a sattelite. Do these phone have built in GPS recievers or was I fed a line...

Did you let customization run after you flashed? GPS should work. Have tryed using the sprint nav, and see if it gets a lock?

Yes, I did let customization run after I flashed, I will try Sprint Nav.

Google maps seem to take longer for me. Live search and Sprint Nav lock super guick. Just a thought.

Sprint Nav isn't there, all the other sprint programs are just not that one, also the GPS program port is set to Com4 from the factory is this correct?
