Re: GPS not working, why?

those settings look correct. a problem i ran into with my Titan a while back (which it would probably still apply to the imagio) is since I didn't have a data plan, i had to disable the aGPS, essentially telling the GPS to work on its own. During the startup of Garmin, for example, it tries to download satelite information by itself with your data plan. if you don't have one, it will keep retrying, which causes the satelite lock to take much longer (10+min). Do you, perhaps, live in an area with poor data coverage? Are you using the wifi when you say you used quickGPS?

Another thing to consider is where you are when you're trying to get a lock. You won't get a very good one if you're in, say, an office building.

Re: GPS not working, why?

Thanks for sharing the information. I do have a data plan, and I am on Verizon wireless without refreshing the original ROM. The thing is that the GPS was working last night at home, but not working in my office.

Thoughts?

Re: GPS not working, why?

At least there's a location associated with when it works. Try it again at home to see if you have any more luck. Your office might be a dead spot for GPS radio frequencies. Your best bet is to try it in your car or outside. If that doesn't work, then there's something odd about your phone specifically.
