Don't do anything with the GPS settings in control panel. In Google Maps I have mine on the "set by windows" option. On Windows Live I had to change the GPS to "GPS COM4". Windows live does much better with the GPS IMHO.

If you changed the settings in the control panel "external GPS", here are the defaults. Under "programs" it is set to "COM4". Under "hardware" the port is set to "none" and the "baud rate" to 4800. Under "access" there is a check in the only box.

One final note is most people have needed to be outside to get a signal.

Try driving a few blocks while it searches. That is what helped me connect for the first time.

So I downloaded and installed and everything worked on the second try. However, my phone number is different, I'm worried I might have changed something else? Is that normal? Can I just change the number back?

Okay, a couple of things I have noticed...

Didn't have any problems with the install (once I did it on an XP machine, my Vista box wouldn't even start the install.) Everything works here for me except for my Exchange email. All my contacts and calendar events synced fine from the web, but i am not receiving new email, nor can I send any new email through messaging. I will hit send on the message, it will go into the outbox, Messaging will sync with the server, but the message will never send (it stays in the outbox.) Furthermore, new email is sitting on the server in the Inbox, this will sync, but the messages never come down to my phone.

Thoughts from anyone?

I just tried it on my verizon phone and my email sent immediately with my exchange server and i am receiveing mail with no issue, took seconds both ways. Did you check the box to "Send/receive when I click Send. Also might want to set schedule to As Items arrive.

Now that we have gps working on the phone, is there a way to use it on a tethered laptop? I would love to be able go on a road trip with a 15" gps map.

I figured it out (and yeah, it was pretty stupid.) I forgot to actually put my email address in at the very end of setting up the account.

Okay, now that this little "glitch" is fixed (and my Vista computer is syncing with the phone again), I think everything is up and running. Now if only we could get those ATI drivers...
