Virser_gps.dll is not really needed for gps to work however it may help out a little

NO, I did use the GPS Kickstart and the .dll. Then it worked fine.

i cant wait for him to release his version of it. i have no GPS at all with this oem sprint rom, or REV A for taht matter, just like flashing back to stock....back to V2 for now

I have no problem with the gps on his new oem sprint rom. Unfortunately I can't test rev a because sprint only has 1x here. I am having a problem with a few programs on this rom. Every so often I get an error and the app closes, and that never happened with the v2 rom. But as far as gps, i got a lock within 1 min and it's working better than it did in v2.

how are you getting it to work? what program are you using? google maps says i have no GPS reciever. i install the GPStoday and i cant find it anywhere but in the remove programs list, so i cant even active it on the today screen.

i think i will try the kitchen and make my own rom, never done it before......

Google maps tells me it can't access my receiver but knows it's there. I run Mini GPS Viewer so I can see what's happening and then Google Maps works fine. I just have to keep mini gps running in the background while I'm using google maps.

fyi----I'm suspending my current roms to check out the new sprint rom....there's no sense in building a rom that's part Kaiser, part Alltel, part Sprint when there's a new sprint that has it all.

I'm sure it wont be long b4 I have some customs out.....

btw....on the oem sprint in this thread, gps is working fine for me.....but I open GPS using GPS viewer 1st, then google & locks within 10 sec.

Old Man Jenkins, what new sprint rom are you referring to? One that you made or from sprint? Well have quite a few questions so let me ask the most important, I know you were working on a V3 sprint rom, is it available? Thank you for your time and help.

Hi,
I hope this is your ROM based on the original leaked sprint ROM. I am still using V8 of ur 6.1 ROM and was waiting for official sprint ROM before flashing. Do u suggest I do it now?? I am using a sprint Vogue on Reliance network in India. Thanks

Yes, the rom is based on the leaked sprint rom, but it's basically OEM, I'll be adding all my usual apps very soon. See 1st post....I've already updated.

Yes, so far it seems very nice
