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

Mine works the same at 152000 as well.

Has anyone figured out how to make the GPS work good enough to be a viable solution for navigation?

I find it to be a roll of the dice as to whether or not I EVER get a lock. Sometimes it's 10 seconds, 30 seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes, or never... I have tried three different radios, about 6 different ROMS, and every driver/reg/primer/setting I could throw at the problem. At best, this is still a gimmick. When compared side-by-side with a real GPS unit like my TomTom, it's a joke. I really want this to work!
