Re: Bell Mobility Users ROMS?

So after a few days of playing around..............

seems the gps is kinda sketchy to say the least. ISometimes I will run gpsviewer and it will do the same thing and "look" at a bunch of sats but give no locks. Then I have to toggle the "use agps" as I explained previously including soft reseting. And then I turn on gpsviewer and it will lock within a few minutes. I have been running quickgps just for kicks but I'm not too sure if its actually working. After getting the initial lock I can turn off gpsviewer completely and the gps will work for a while after that when using Live search. I have been able to use live search for a bit, turn it off for an hour or two, then use live search again, all with a gps lock (cant be sure how many locks when using live search) in under 10 secs.

Anyways, hope all is well with other bell gps users, hopefully someone can figure out a less sketchy way of getting gps to work!

cheers
