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.

Glad to see you've got a lock.
