My GPS would not work until I did that GPS reg edits people suggested in one thread. I now use my location/cell tower location all the time when my GPS isn't up yet, which takes a few seconds. I do not have AGPS enabled.

Re: Google Maps 4.1 Current Location is unavailable

So I took cmajewsk's reg file he posted above and created a cab for it. I loaded the cab and soft reset.

It appears at first glance that "My location" of GMaps is now working even without GPS to get a lock and more importantly without turning on Wifi.

Others who are having the same problem, please test out this cab and see if it resolves your issue.

You will need to soft reset after installation.

Let me know if this works for anyone else!
