Re: GPS Switches on and off repeatedly.
Not a new problem. Both my old Touch Pro 1 and the new TP2 both do it. I imagine that the first member to respond is using a Verizon phone. When I was with Verizon I never had this issue. Only noticed it since I've moved to Sprint.

I've had 4 Touch Pro 1s and now the Touch Pro 2 and they all do this.

Both Garmin and iGo repeatedly loose satellite lock. If you're stopped and watch the GPS signal in Garmin or iGo, you can watch it every few seconds or so... it loses lock. Way worse when you're stopped that when moving.

Anyone else on Sprint have a TP1 or TP2 that uses Garmin or iGo can verify this.
