Re: Updated GPS Drivers (Possible Fix For Standby Issues)

I was able to lock on to 5 satellites in 5min inside my apt by the window. It never worked this fast or even at all in my apt. The way it was searching for satellites was sequenced from the gps viewer. Very Very cool stuff. I'll see if it works in the morning without a soft reset.


UPDATE: I just tried to get a lock again and it look as if the gps is hanging....So it looks like it didn't fix that issue DAMN
There is a lot a variables here:

Kickstart vs no Kickstart
Was security lifted in original cooked ROM or not.
Don't assume your hung if you get no lock inside. I'd say if you get no lock for 5 minutes outside then you are surely hung. But outside is usually less than 2 minutes if not moving.
Did all dll's get overwritten.
At one point there were instruction to remove a dll, which you do if it's cooked in.

Either use a stock rom or follow latest info on your cooked one and wait til it's got all these patches properly integrated.

No Gps hangs in 5 days for me.
