Curses :P
GPS will haunt me for a while. The only things for Sprint GPS I could find are cabs I've linked to and cabs in the codybears FAQ.
I'll try and get ahold of vin, see if he is willing to share his wisdom.

Cool, I'm sure he will help out as best he can. He's always helped out in his thread. Hopefully you get it working.

Also going to try and change the icons.
And they will be orignal, as in made by me (as long as I can figure it out XD)

Andrewwelton,

Been watching your thread. The rom's looking pretty interesting. I like the fact that you have a low program memory. Anyways, i'm running a sprint 6900, and if there's any testing that you need I would be happy to help. I do know one thing on internet and gps that I found playing with all these roms. That if you flash back to your original carrier rom and run the internet and the gps, and then flash the custom rom. I've been able not to have to run the carrier cabs. And the internet and gps has worked fine for me. Just did this with NFSFANS v13 rom. I hope that will help. Thanks T M Z

Thanks tmz! I like the low program memory too :P
Anyone using my ROM willing to try this and report back as to whether or not this works for you?

*EDIT*
Good news guys! Vin (THANKS!) shared his OEM for Sprint GPS with me.
I will be cooking this into V3. He says that this is what he changed, so hopefully this will resolve the gps issues.

Due to the time now, V3 will more then likely be out tomorrow.... along with an updated wallpaper pack (not all vortex this time)

I'll be happy to test your Sprint ROM

[Andrewwelton]

Just to clear up what I said about icons last night. When I said the icons would be made by me, I meant that I would resize images from image searching to create some original looking icons.

EDIT
quick update, I'm currently working on changing icons, however I'm running into problems, only one icon changed BUT the icon that changed looks very very good imo I really want to release V3 today so keep your eyes peeled

Finally, Titanium Weather is an optional install. If you want it, you can install it. It is causing too many problems.

This garmin software works with Garmin BT sensor,right?

I think. I'm not sure what it works with. I just install the cab and go. Sorry couldn't help more.

nvm...I thought its garmin specific error,but google maps keeps searching for sattelites.And I compared aGPS regs with my ROM,nothing wrong there,looks exactly the same .Something not right
