Re: Vogue GPS issues..

I did the leaked Verizon ROM update.

I used the HTC Quick GPS application which downloads 7 days of ephemeris data (Where the sats are suppose to be...which enables quick 15 second start ups!).

I've had great results with the built in GPS on the vx6900. I've actually used an app called GPS Today (which is a great free app). Importing the collected data to Garmin mapping, indicates I'm nearly dead on (within 20-30 feet). NOT BAD for such a small gps antenna. I get my fixes with and without cellphone towers, as I travel some remote areas it Montana and still the gps knows were I'm at!!! I love it! YOu have to install the HTC Quick GPS app to ensure you get a rapid fix. Without fail, I always get a fix in 15 seconds and thats Indoors, No Kidding!
