One time, GPS worked on EnergyRom, but only if I wasn't in my home area. I have checked the location, com ports, etc. All of the normal stuff that needs to be done for GPS to work, but it just doesn't happen. I swear there is a setting somewhere that limits the power(signal strength) of the GPS chip. Just something to throw out if you have a chance in all of your "spare time". Thanks for such a great piece of software!

I had this EXACT situation with my Alltel phone. It wouldn't work in my home area. Ever since I have been running NRG or Lunacie ROMs my GPS has been working, but there have been a few other things I do every time I flash.

1) install ppst2.01.cab and run it from /windows
2) update my phone by dialing *228 (PRI?)
3) Install the dcdcarrier cab (the 2008 version, 09 version messes up the toolbar)

Hope this helps, and get rid of that NAV plan, wasted money.
