IDK whether it's aGPS or regular GPS that's functioning, but the March 18 build pinpointed my location last night. It didn't show "location within XXXXXX meters" like you normally see when using cell tower information.

with the latest zimage I am experiencing the same thing. "Current location unavailable" Touch screen tweaks are awesome.

data works , market works, phone works, txt works but location is not working, even with wifi turned on.

Any thoughts?

the dev's haven't said that gps is turned on/working, it is just one person in this discussion said theirs seems to be working fine.
I wouldn't try to figure it out yet since gps still isn't a "go".

To get Cell Tower updating to work, what worked for me and seems to have worked for others is Updating to Google Maps 4.0 in the Market, and making sure Wifi is enabled by going into your settings and checking the box for Wifi whether you are using Wifi or not. Also some have claimed going into Location and security, and unchecking and re-checking the Use Wireless networks for your Location and accepting it helped as well.

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2

I'm also having an issue with my location. It seems to be working when I turn on wifi, however it's showing me in london and various other places that I am not (I'm in Michigan). I'm on verizon so I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it, wondering if anybody else has had a similar experience.

I remember reading something in the thread before it switched over to Mr. Pippy's that some people have had their location determined, but it was suggested that this was Google's Wifi Locating service. I know they have a database with a lot of wifi networks so that could be the reason your being located.

This applies unless you've changed your IP address and/or router since Google drove by your location with their cars, in which case they no longer know where you are
