Hmm, mine is still working. I check mine every couple hours and its still working fine, and I always check it while I'm inside. I'm using just the Alltel rom, didn't flash JD's.

I'm on JD's. it doesn't seem to get a fix inside. lucky you ajones.

but to htcuser-i'd say to dl dotfred's task manager and see if the gps processes are running on startup.

i'd probably just try reflashing to alltel and then back to jd's. softreset after everything. it helps.

There seems to be an issue with the drivers.

I have the same problem where after a while, the GPS stops working. This typically happens if I hadn't accessed the GPS for several hours.

Several soft resets and lots of patience for the first fix are the trick to getting it working again.

For now...

Yo, your readin my mind man. Ive been leaning towards the Curve too ever since my mic jus suddenly stopped working one morning on my Touch & had to do an exchange. I really hope the 6.1 official ROM upgrade is worth the wait & will be a LOT more stable & reliable.

Question though, I keep getting different answers as to the add-on price of the BB-Plan. Im on SERO & Ive heard everything from $15 all the way up to $40 extra. What quote have you gotten?
