No one mentioned GPS was broken and I don't have the cab or OEM for the updated navigator as I have never used it, so post it and I'll update the OEM

GPS is broken sometimes, usually have to go enable 911 ONLY and softreset (it switches back by itself) to make it work.

Having the issue someone posted about a while ago: Have to press and hold to select items (like in SMS/Email/Theme Select on the Today settings thing). Just "tapping" it doesn't select the item, have it tap and hold for half a second to a second for it to register. Doesn't exhibit this behaviour in HTC menu items (the enhanced pretty menus).

I'm not sure what this means or what it entails. GPS never worked for me within sprint navigator. GPS does seem to work with google maps in terms of "my current location" So I am not sure what is causing that. In terms of where the new cab is, I have no idea. Sprint offers to update when I launch the included version of navigator, but then it denies me by saying my phone is not supported.

@edufur Just have to go to Phone Settings and either disable GPS or switch it to 911 ONLY mode. Soft reset/restart the phone and if it doesn't switch back to the ON option, set it to that and you GPS will work for as long as it can (varies).

If you dont select touchflo then you don't get a press and hold problem. Calc, by fixing the tap and hold mean you fixed it so touchflo can work alongside 6.5 scrolling? Because the scrolling seemed affected adversely as well besides the tap and hold to select. So basically, can they exist together or is it better to just stick with 6.5 scrolling and do without touchflo in the few apps that still dont use 6.5's scrolling.

What I did was slightly reduced the time it takes to initiate tap & hold on the OS

So we should or should not check touchflo scrolling?

[edufur]

so, seems GPS is working with Sprint Navigator in this build. Not sure why it would be different. I also have found that this build (815) seems a little prettier than 812, but a little slower as well. And I am not sure yet, but it seems to be consuming slightly more on the battery.

so far with tflo cooked in there seems to be no conflict. Srolling in word even seems kinetic
