Re: Beta rom

Go outside into an open area with clear view of the sky. Soft reset the phone. Start Gmaps, set options to "Managed by Windows". Make sure "Use GPS" has a check mark next to it. Set the phone down on a table, etc. (so it stays stationary).

You should have a lock within 5-10 minutes. The first lock can take a while.

Re: Beta rom

You're absolutely right! It took about 15-20 minutes. It's now working. Leaf gps-dashboard shows I'm locked on 7 out of 9 satellites and googlemaps is working great!

Anyone still having problems - it just takes patience. Turn on googlemaps and let the phone sit outside for a while.

Re: Beta rom

Sofladavid and Pdub, today I was on US1 going to blockbuster on 125th, and guess what? Google maps locked on with no problem, had 4 to 6 satellites the whole time. Stayed locked on even once I got back in Pinecrest and got home. Very strange, I dont know what to think. I guess the route I usually take to work and back, going through Coconut Grove just doesn't get good GPS signal.

Glad to see you've got a lock.

Re: Beta rom

Just a quick question ... if I have already flashed by phone with the GPS unlock, is that the CC20 rom that is needed, or do I need to flash before flashing to 6.5?

Thanks!

Re: Beta rom

Yes, the CC20 is the rom you need to flash to before using any others.

Re: Beta rom

I know I need to get to CC20 first, but how can I check which version I am running?
