Re: GPS & standby mode

I started it manually and GPS worked.

So I redo the whole set of GPS Patches and the GPS works fine.

But, get this, the GPSdaemonService is NOT running after soft reset or after running google maps with a solid lock.

If I rename GPSDaemonService back to old one the GPSDaemonService starts on it's own after soft reset. Put it back to new one and it does not. But in BOTH cases the GPS works.

So what the heck is going on. I had never checked if the Service was running in prior Flashes but the GPS always worked and I never bothered to look.

Is your Service running with these new DLL's?

Maybe the "Fix" is breaking or removing the service

You will need hgrays gpskickstart program to c:\windows\startup I have posted the file an link to it within the first post of this thread. It will automatically start the GPS service, and device drivers.

An I have updated the drivers today as well. Those that have it installed allready just delete gpsid.dll from c:\windows folder, and do a soft reset.
