Re: 12/25/08 Verizon GPS Fix v2.0

Just an FYI what I've noticed on my phone when GPS fails:
-GPS works fine most of the time, locks are achieved within 16 seconds.
-Sometimes the GPS does NOT lock.
What I've noticed is when I go to the Phone screen, the "crosshair" icon in the top right has a slash thru it. This means that "Location" is OFF.
I dont know why this happens on its own sometimes.

To fix it, try 1 of 2 things:
1) Go into Phone Settings, turn OFF Location, OK, then go back in and turn Location ON.
-OR-
2) Reboot/Soft-reset your phone
