You have to pay extra for telenav. There's a monthly subscription fee.

I just dont get it if it works once why won't it work again? I would think somehow it is not turning back on again. I did notice that in gps viewer the first time you turn gps on it scrolls numbers and letters in the search screen then gets a lock. The next time when it does not work it just says done. Anyone got any ideas for me to try?

Not that it is a big issue, just use to the old way and kinda like it. When the phone would go into sleep mode, it would wake up in the today screen. Now since updating it wakes up in the last screen it was on, ie instant messaging. Is there a tweek for this. I could not find it in settings.

i was considering cooking my own GPS based ROM, but now i'm having second thoughts based on some of the GPS issues i've been reading about in this thread. i'm curious to know of those with inconsistent GPS peformance, are you using custom ROMS (e.g., cooked in a Kitchen) or the recently leaked stock ROM? i flashed my Touch with the recently leaked ROM (just one time and without a hard-reset) and i have not had any GPS issues.

i'm using Garmin XT, iGo 8 and CoPilot 7 and they've worked every time i've used them for navigation. all three apps were loaded/installed on my micoSD card and used with a GPS puck before I installed a GPS-enabled ROM. (this method allows me to use the sat-nav programs without having to reinstall with every ROM flash.) for iGo 8, i'm using a shortcut that launches AstroLauncher and then iGo. once it starts i have an almost instantaneous satellite lock. Garmin XT and CoPilot will initiate the GPS (read: i do not need astrolauncher) but usually take 15-30 seconds before i get satellite locks. at this point i think i'll stick with the stock ROM vs. pushing my luck with a cooked ROM.

with this "stock" ROM gps is very quick and works well. i think a lot of people are running into problems trying to use customer ROMs on top of the new radio/PRL. Thats what you get with custom ROMs for a tiny bit of speed, bugs and errors at points

Sorry, mine is stock.... Your theory doesn't apply...

Mine went from 'stock' out of the box, to this 'official' release and mine is flawless. i got my five tab, my hhc, my s2u2, and an incredible wad going with no problems. not even when tethering to my MacBook.

I just noticed something strange/different with this ROM and I'm not sure if it's just me or not (I tried searching this thread for this particular issue but could not come up with anything).

When changing the volume of phone's speaker to the maximum volume, I remember that it beeped a very high pitched sound, but now it's silent. The second highest volume is a lower pitched sound, and then it keeps the same pitch but gets quieter as volume is decreased. I do not remember if the lowest two volume settings made a beep noise before but they're also silent as well.

Anyone experiencing this? Or did something happen to my phone's speaker?

[xteoos]

Upgrade my sprint htc to new rom,GPS working fine for me.
Just wondering how come PRL is 60610 instead of 60613 as I have seen in some posts.
Any input to verify this.
Thanks a lot
