I think that was not the question actually.. lol.. he was asking how to change the default location view... here at my google maps when u use it and u close it it saves the last view you were in.. but if u clean the cache it changes to a default city for the country you're in... =D

Exactly!

Microsoft Live Search knew where i was and told me how far the nearest coffee shop was (.14 miles).

If Live Search can do that, then why not Google Maps?!

Hmmm,..how did MS live find you?

I've installed it on my XV6700 and can't "Locate Me". Of course Google maps cant either.

I have the phone turned and as well data access, and even tried it with Wifi on, and yet it still can't find me.

What settings do you have or do you even have the same Xv6700?
