so go to Google Maps, search a location, leave the map running.........then go to the GPS Viewer, COM4, and that's it?

Hey guys one thing i noticed is that the sip disappears when i try to type something in sprint navigation! this tends to be quite annoying! has anyone come across this and/or have a fix? thanks in advance!

why should anyone need to prime anything?

I am getting the exact same thing... sounds like a fire alarm going off in my ear! Is there a wait to fix this? Also, what do I need to do to get the GPS working?

Thanks!

It was writtin in reply to my problem that "If it boots to the multicolor screen you aren't bricked yet. Just plug it back in and reinstall the ROM."

Unfortunately, once I go into the recovery mode, the update starts to download, but then tells me that an upgrade is not permitted with my device. The RBG and White screeen remains. The first time it did this, I took the phone to the Sprint Service Center and they replaced the phone. I went home and I figured there must have been a problem because the backup software (Sprite) was running on the PC. I made sure the program was not running and I carefully did the upgrade again. The same thing occurred at 10% download. The uSB disconnected and the same warning error came up. The new phone was now bricked. I had to go again and get it replaced. (The good thing is that both phones had the better viewing angle screen.) I wonder if I am having a problem because I have the 64 bit Vista Ultimate running and the upgrade cannot work on 64 Vista. I have given up for now trying to upgrade. I might wait until Monday and try my plain 32 bit Vista at work. Does anyone have any ideas why this would be bricking phones? Has anyone had a problem with this upgrade?
