Need help with GPS

Veldetta · #1 (**permalink**) 03-24-2009, 10:32 PM

I don't think my GPS is working correctly. When using Sprint Navigation or Google Maps, my touch pro can't seem to find a GPS signal. However, everything seems to be working fine when I use QuickGPS.

I'm on Juicy's rom and on Sprint Radio v1.11.

Any help would be much appreciated.

This does seem odd if you can get a GPS signal with Quick GPS. Did it work prior to loading the ROM you are on?

I'm not sure, i don't think i tried. Could I have a defective phone?

Go to your settings in Nav and make sure you are set to com4 and Baund 4800 and your location is set to on.

Thanks for your help but no dice for Google Maps or Sprint Nav. However, I did find a program on my phone called HTC GPS Tool. I opened port COM4 and set the baud to 4800. I clicked on "Start Test" and it used 4 satellites. When I quit, the program doesn't save the settings. And it still leaves me with no gps on Google Maps or Sprint Nav...

Please help, this is buggin me out now.
