Re: [GUIDE] Fix for no GPS lock after Froyo flash

My GPS locks fine, but while driving it loses the signal every couple of minutes. Any idea?

Re: [GUIDE] Fix for no GPS lock after Froyo flash

Here is the solution that fixed this for me:
Im trying this fix below for the disconnects. Hopefully it works.


Go to /data/gps

Remove secgps.conf

The file gets recreated when you use an app that requires gps. I have not had an issue with the gps losing signal since making this change.
