I have to use HTC GPS each time I have left the phone alone for any amount of time. Google will not find the satellites on its' own. Actually, Google will fail to initialize the GPS on its' own.

Is this mirroring the experience of other users? Do we have any thoughts on how to avoid this initialization procedure, of others are experiencing?

ROM: 1.03.605.4
Radio: 1.-3.03V

If you look at the history of this thread then you will see that people in the community are looking at gettig aGPS working on the VZW TP. If you have the Sprint TP then the aGPS works. We are all waiting. But be greatful that you have GPS.
