Is there a such thing as a working GPS for the Sprint Touch Pro?

[Magoo_215]

I dont kno if Im being selfish or anything like that but I would of thought that me having this expensive phone and me paying my bill every month I deserve to have a fully working functional phone. The orignal Touch Pro had its own problems but the GPS worked flawlessly for me and I cant say the same for the for this one. Im on my 3rd TP2 and none of them seem to work for me so is there something Im doing wrong, something I can change in the setting? Or should I continue to complain? I need my gps to work because I travel alot in the summer and I know I could just buy 1 but do I really need to since its suppose to work with the phone? What else can I do beside downloading something.

Have you tried running QuickGPS?

also does it not work at all, or it works sometimes and other times it doesn't?

Yeah make sure you run quickgps to get the satellite locations. I made the mistake of not doing this when I first got my TP2 and I thought it was broken because it would only show 2 satellites and it wouldn't be able to connect to either.

Never ever worked for me no matter where I am. It would connect but then it stops but I never tried the quick gps tho but I doubt that would work .

i had the same issue using the stock rom(s). made my own rom using calks kitchen and install mighy mikes sprint carrier cab just after flash and if it takes more than 30 seconds to get a lock, i must be in the middle of a tornado

I use sprint navigation all the time, never once had an issue with GPS.

People that demand that other people hit the thanks annoy the hell out of me.

Whenever I see people demanding that it virtually guaranties I will NEVER thank that poster for anything (although I will continue to thank other people as I do all the time)
