GPS isn't working for me either with 5/12. Worked fine with 5/10 and 5/11. People at XDA confirmed.

Make sure you turn on GPS in settings under location & security. Mine was turned off by default in the more recent builds. On the older builds it was on by default, but the developers must have changed it to save power.

Now with all that said, mine is not working as well. If WiFi is not that important to you, try going back the the 05-11 or 05-10 build. Otherwise there should be an update coming in the next few days.

I'm not really sure what I'm missing here. Everyone is saying that in the latest all-in-one, the only thing not working is GPS. I just installed it and the external speaker/battery meter is still not working. What gives?

The references are from the previous builds to the new builds. There are several features not working yet like camera, bluetooth, speaker, etc.

There is a new rootfs.img from today that seems to have GPS working and WiFi without crashing (so far.) I have tested it on both the AOSP and Sense UI version with success.

Even on today's build, I have not been successful in getting the gps to work, if someone could help me with that, I would be most appreciative.

Thanks

Re: Android/Linux for CDMA Touch Pro 2 Rhodium Updated 4-20-2010

Not sure if this has been mentioned somewhere or if this is common knowledge, but I was playing around on android the other day and I found a way to make the screen switch over from landscape to portrait without having to open and close the phone every time you boot. I hate having to open and close it because it eventually wears out the slider mechanism.

-hold anywhere on your homescreen until the "add to home screen" menu appears.
-click "shortcuts"
-click "settings"
-click "wifi settings"
This makes a shortcut to the wifi settings menu.

Now, when you first boot into android and your screen is in landscape with the phone closed, click on this shortcut, and then hit the back button (the arrow beside the hang up button). Your screen should flip back to portrait mode.

It has worked for me on the 4-19-10 and 5-11-10 builds so far.
