BAF GPS Toggle, v1.9 [Updated 7/23]

[Baffles]

It's an unfixable issue, but from what I've seen (and heard) it shouldn't pop up as much on the newer roms anyway.

Will this work for the sprint htc touch 6.1 rom ?

Thanks T M Z

When using BAF do you set location on or 911? I assume location is set to on. Thanks.

I am runnning WM 6.1 (OMJ's 3.03.651.2) with the BAF GPS toggle and it works GREAT! I turn it on and by the time TT7 loads I have several locks.


This is a GREAT application and I am sharing it will ALL my fellow PPC'ers.

Thanks BAF!

I just leave it on. I have no idea if it really affects GPS functionality or not.

Try those GPS regedits. The SUPL AGPS ones, set EnableAGPS to 0, EnableAGPSSmartMode to 0, and GPSMode to 1. It may take a little longer to get a lock (takes me 10-15 or so seconds with those settings), but it is way more reliable (and supposedly more accurate).

Thanks for the great plugin Baffles.

For those wondering what regedits he's referring to check this thread:

Baffles: Your program was working great for me with DCD 3.2.5, and Radio 3.42.30.

However I just upgraded to the newest radio, 3.42.50. Now it no longer seems to function. I enable it, and it just stays at SEEK (0) forever. If I launch google maps, it syncs up fine in the usual amount of time, and then if I quit google maps, GPS Toggle reports connection to GPS and displays lock like usual.

So it's like the GPS Toggle isnt' being able to initialize GPS anymore with the newest radio. Another user reported this as well and he switched to Astro's GPS Launcher.
Here is the link to the new radio http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=415364
and the comments re: this etc.


I was also curious as to your thoughts on Astro's GPS Launcher vs. your software etc. Thanks in advance!

I absolutely love your toggle but with the new M2D themes it would be great if you could create a shortcut to either be implemented on the Today tab or a shortcut for the Programs tab.

Thanks,
