using 1.12.jd rom gps worked all day long yesterday all around long island. Today nothing! I am using gpsviewer and i took me seconds to connect to satellite yesterday(blue icons) Now i can still do a search and it finds it on com4 but all i get is one red satelite icon on the north pole. I have soft reset, did everything i even hard reset an hour ago to no resolve. Any ideas would be appreciated.

P.S. i was using tomtom all day yesterday as i did with the bt holux m1000 before and it performed well with 3-4 bars of gps signal and very accurate, to the point.

This is what I posted this morning. I haven't get a reply since then.
I got a very similiar result compare to you.
But if you spend enough time into doing this and that, you might get your GPS working again, then OFF again.

Just unstable!

If you are with telus you can use my custom rom i just posted. I have been using it for 3-4 days. It gets fix in abouts 7-8 seconds.
