GPS with verizon firmware

origami78 · #1 (**permalink**) 08-16-2010, 09:37 AM

I just reloaded my phone with the most current firmware from Samsung. I still did not have working GPS and did not want to go with a cooked firmware yet. I had been doing allot of searching to get the GPS working on the phone and finally ran across a post on another site that helped. I just had to download GPS Toggle http://www.baf.cc/gpstoggle then reboot the phone after that all I have to do is turn on GPS Toggle wait for it to connect to satellites and then open any GPS program I want and it works. I have been using Google maps.

Just thought I would share this.

I get quick locks by not holding on to device until it locks. Usually takes 45sec. with gmaps and iGO using DC22 stock rom. With CC20 I had to use gps gate or toggle. But no more. Set device down outside or on dash and see how it goes.

good day

I use SPB Mobile Shell and never use my today screen, is there a way to add a widget for GPS Toggle?
