Re: Using deactivated (from sprint network) Mogul as a GPS unit?

Yes! Got my wifi connection working. I guess I had to restart my router. So yes I got google maps working with my wifi. Stock rom, stock settings. GPS seemed to lock pretty quick. GPS located me on google maps.

It's funny driving around with GPS on live search without a data connection....the background (repeated refresh arrow pics) still moves around and since it's a North up map, your pointer (you) twirls around like a compass.

I'm curious as to why your device won't let you lock on a GPS with just the stock rom flashed and without qpst mods.

edit: now if I could only get my other mogul's wifi to even turn on....
