HELP! Can't get a GPS Lock
Alright guys, I got a replacment and I am am very unhappy with it. There is a small scratch in the right upper left of screen and the phone drops signal and EVDO, it then comes back with 3 bars and 1X then soon EVDO. Anyhow, I am going to keep it for awhile. So I unlocked, then tried to find a radio that would go in because it came with this MR1 update which is horrible except for battery life. I had to flash with on of dcd's rom to get radio 3.42.02. I have no 2gb SD so I am always trying to find ways to use USB. So I flashed with a ktichen ROM. I then fixed up that thing with the QSPT guide from XDA. I launched Google Maps and I can not get any GPS lock. I have tried everywhere. I have read these forums for at least 6 hours. So, can someone please help me get GPS going? Thanks munchly.

Re: HELP! Can't get a GPS Lock
Yeah data will assist in faster locks only due to aGPS involved. But getting the WiFi isnt hard I dont think as the only things you need to do were have a Sprint radio, a ROM version high enough and Location enabled. I really think that is it but will look around for you to make sure Im (and you) are not missing anything.

Re: HELP! Can't get a GPS Lock
Thanks. Well it looks like since it had the MR1 update some other junk needs to be done. I am getting so tried. I have read numerous threads, and some point to others and it's just so hard to find straight answers. I had a hard enough time trying to get radio 3..35 on here, I used a Sprint stock rom from a sticky here. I was using 3.42.02 but on my old unit I had 3.35 and it worked perfect. If I can not get this working I will call back VZW with the sratched screen and white spot issue and hope I can get a refurb without MR1 like my friend did.

Install the original Verizon 6.0 firmware, then go thru the steps to flash it to a custom rom. Having MR1 on it causes you have to roll back before you can do anything.

Re: HELP! Can't get a GPS Lock
Thanks guys. But I heard you can't go from GPS to non-GPS. Anyhow, I called and a nice girl got me a replacment, she even is doing overnight shipping for SATURDAY. I was happy, cause I don't wanna wait till Monday. The phone hasa problem with droping signal and my battery life is going down the tubes. Plus I have the same white spot. O'well, another refurb for me.
