Hopefully this can help someone else with the GPS not acquiring the proper location.
I was doing testing with different GPS tools from the Android Market.
I believe I found a program that may work. Do a search for "GpsFix"
Here is how I tested it.
1. Using FROYO x RED 02.06, GPS using Google maps will show my location as in the ocean somewhere.
2. Installed GpsFix, my GPS location is fixed instantly.
to rule out a fluke.
3. Formated my SD card with HP SD formatting tool.
4. This time I used a fresh ndno's FRX04 package with the 1253 kernel OCed at 710Mhz. From
here
5. Google map - GPS shows me in the middle of some ocean again.
6. Downloaded and installed GpsFix
7. Google map - GPS shows correct location again.
I don't why it worked for me.
Not saying it will fix everyone's issues, but I just thought to share my personal experiences and hopefully might help others.
Feel free to ask me if there's any questions.
Only tested it on a Sprint TP2.
