Re: HELP!!! GPS software causing reboot and/or freezing

I've got a Sprint Touch Pro, factory/stock ROM (v1.03.651.4) , and out of nowhere, yesterday my GPS started acting fishy. It seems very peculiar that so many people started having these issues the last day or two.

At first, I wasn't sure what was causing the freeze / reboots (I thought the battery may be slipping / bad connectors), but then I noticed that it happened only when I used Google Maps / Bing.

I use Google Maps and Bing, and with Google Maps, it will find me on the GPS, but as I drive, it won't "track" my movement. Eventually, it will just reboot. Ocassionally, it reboots before it actually finds me on the GPS.

I uninstalled Google Maps, cleared all related files, etc, and reinstalled it - same result.

Tried Bing, it won't find me on GPS - eventually it just freezes.

I'm going to try downloading a new ROM version that HTC's US website has for the Sprint TP devices (2.01.651.6).
