Re: OMJ's WM6.1 Custom Touch ROM w/ UC, GPS, REV A!

Last night I flashed over to OMJ rom from using JD's rom. I used JD's rom all day yesterday without any gps problems.

After flashing OMJ rom I wasn't able to connect to gps. I installed both GPSKickStart and GPSKickStart_GPSEnable cab's. After doing this last night I was able to get GPS and use Telenav and all the other gps programs. This morning I can't get a lock.

A couple things about the rom. I've been using OMJ pre-gps roms for about 4 months without any problems. I really like the start menu and the extras in the rom. That's why I flashed back to this rom when I saw it was recooked. I don't think I ever had to do a soft reset with OMJ rom in the past. It worked GREAT.

I haven't had time to really use the apps since I flashed the new rom but I do notice my phone app keeps popping up. It seems like when I close a program the phone app pops up.

The other thing is Telenav. SprintNav is missing some of the menu choices that are offered with the Telenav software. The problem is the Telenav looks for a BT GPS. I installed the cab for the Telenav ATT Tilt and it works great (when I get a GPS lock) and also has all the menu items. (Telenav gives you zoom, show traffic under the menu of 2D map. Sprint doesn't)
Maybe you could cook the rom without the navigation software or try using the ATT cab.
Thanks for your hard work OMJ.
