QuickGPS and WM 6.5 ROMs - is there a point?

[mstevens]

I have tried about a half-dozen ROMs based on WM 6.5. All of them seem to include QuickGPS. However, I can never get QuickGPS to do anything at all in those ROMs - I tap it and get the white selection cloud around it, but that's all. It just sits there forever and nothing seems to happen. Certainly there's no appearance that anything launches as a result. I've never had any trouble getting QuickGPS to function as expected in WM 6.1 ROMs.

Am I doing something wrong here (i.e., is there something that should be done differently when running QuickGPS under different OS versions) or is there something wrong with QuickGPS. If QuickGPS simply doesn't function under WM 6.5 then why do ROM cooks leave it in?
