Re: LEAKED - Official Telus 6.1 ROM w/GPS and Rev. A - R 3.41.00, D 3.07

Just look up astro GPS. This primes the internal GPS and opens tomtom at the same time. Once you set the internal gps settings in tom tom it should keep them. I had to change mine from external bluetooth receiver to other NMEA receiver and then change the baud rate to 4800 and select com 2. When I first did it it took about 5 minutes to get a link. BUT you could tell the internal gps was active as it said "waiting for lock" as opposed to "no gps device found"

Using the AstroGPS program at least makes it a bit easier, as opposed to opening google maps or Telus navigator.

That said.. I still get inconsitent lock times. Sometimes right away sometimes a few minutes.

I found the AstroGps program over at XDA
