Did you run thru the stuff you did with your mogul, including regedits? Baf's GPS plugin says that if your device turns off while it's set to on, your GPS will in sorta lag. I think this applies to any program/plugin dealing with the GPS.. Also check this http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.p...&postcount=135.

I would sometimes forget I have the GPS enabled and press the power button. Afterwards the GPS would either not work or lag until I soft reset.

My hunch is that the agps isn't working.. Could it be that the servers aren't excepting input from our touche's?

I stayed outside under a clear sky (in a park) for about 20 minutes yesterday trying to get a fix - never got it...

the more i mess with the gps, the more i realize it works when it wants to really.
i had great results right after the flash.. then it just became flaky

does cloud cover and rain have any effect on gps?
and it def sucks the batt down and warms up the touch

i just hope a nice toggle comes around where we can turn gps on and off with ease through comm manager like bluetooth.
imma LMAO if sprint found out what were doing and turned off their agps servers or pulled some method to disable what were doing..

Also I could not get the gps to work with google maps but it worked with Live Search, but I was standing on the roof at my job (General Motors) so I was sure I would get a clear signal up there. But it still has not worked at home so Im still testing mine out.

same exact thing for me....driving me crazy!! let me know if you find a fix.

I say we've got GPS on our Touch's. So it might be a bit flakey at times, who cares. We've got it and no provider gave it to us, so kuddos to the person who provided the Alltel rom, ImCokeMan (for the unlocker, the guy's a brainiac), hGray (for being the intial guinea pig, and figuring out what was needed and how to make it work) and JD for getting us a working 6.1 rom.

Don't know about most of you but I only need GPS when going on a trip or somewhere new to me, so a bit of a wait for a lock isn't too inconvenient for me. Of course for the purposes of testing which is kind of a novelty and will wear off, it does seem annoying to wait. But again WE'VE GOT IT........
