Re: gps speedo
sk8rseth, I think you're GPS isn't on. You may want to try a primer, GPS Viewer for example. There, you can set the COM, should be COM4, and baudrate 4800. Open GPS, and I'd do a cold start. If you see the tool, it real easy.
Anyway, try that, leave it on, then try gps speedo. Haven't used that myself, so I'm just guess actually. |

Re: gps speedo

Re: gps speedo
On message part:
after upgrading to the official rom my GPS worked perfectly for a couple of days with the Sprint Navigation, but today I tried to show someone how cool this is, and I couldn't make it work. Standing outdoors it tries to get a signal for about 5 minutes then displays a box saying "GPS signal is weak. Move to an open area..." I've seen this thing get a good position in 20 seconds while sitting in my office. Now I can't get a signal with 360 degrees of clear sky. How can that happen? Do I need this "primer"? Testing some of the programs mentioned above. Off message part: Negrito, can you send me that cool Apple screen background, or tell me where to get it? I'd heading for LinuxWorld in San Francisco and that would be a nice conversation starter. |

Re: gps speedo
Thanks to Negrito for mentioning http://www.geoterrestrial.com/ gps today! I LOVE IT! it locks on to the satellites way quicker than google maps(and is more accurate), and I love the functions, and it's legit free! How cool. It auto shows on the map all my contacts which is a very good way to realize if I am near a friend or business without even thinking to look at it.
