Re: OMJ's 3.03.04 WM6.1 Custom Touch ROMs w/ User Customization! Updated 7/21/08

I am Bell user in Canada and I have followed all of the steps listed and everything is up and running. The only thing that I am confused about is the GPS settings as well. I know that the software is supposed to use COM4, but I do not know for sure if this needs to be set under External GPS or not. Theoretically, we are now using Internal GPS, but GPS Viewer only works for me if I have the software COM port under settings set at COM4. Last night I had a good solid lock on satelites and was able to use Google Maps and Live search with the GPS. GPS Today also locked on my location. Since then I have had no luck locking on satelites. It shows Satelites and activity and GPS found under GPS viewer, but no lock today. Most devices that have GPS internally, use AGPS to assist in getting a GPS lock. I was wondering if we are missing this feature, as we did not install the Sprint customizations. If we had a way to get a hold of a .cab file that installed AGPS, I think that it would improve our success in getting a lock. Also if I knew the ideal baudrate to set my GPS at, in Google maps you can manually set the GPS port and baudrate under `Options` If anyone has any advice please advise. I am not a GPS expert.
