Just flashed to To0's v3 rom. with radio 3.37.75.

I open Google Maps and select use GPS. It just says seeking GPS Satellites (0) until it times out.

Under External GPS
program port com 4
hardware port none
baude rate 4800
auto manage gps

Under Location Settings
ON

In Google Maps
Magaged by Windows

I have reflashed as I read this fixed someone elses GPS.
I have done a hard reset after as someone else has said this fixed theirs
I have toggled location in phone settings on, off, on as someone has said this fixed theirs

I live in Phoenix Arizona clear open skies as clouRAB are rare. What am I doing wrong?

Please Help!
 
It basically downloaRAB a list of satellites so that your GPS can locate them faster. Try to look for a cab on ppcgeeks or xda developers and see if that fixes your problem.
 
Try downgrading your radio to 3.35. I get locks in 3 seconRAB or less with 3.35.

Also, find and install GPS Toggle .CAB. It puts a GPS toggle function on your home screen and greatly increases instant lock-ons when cold-starting Google Maps or Windows Live Search.

Cheers.
 
Thanks for replying is there a way to downgrade without reflashing rom or using an sd card? What happened to good ol exe files? Prolly cant use those..... Got a link for the toggle?
 
GPS seems to be really spotty. It works off and on for me, so even if you do get it to work I wouldn't expect to much.
 
See if upgrading to the newest radio works. Your best method to downgrade your radio would be to find the old official Sprint ROM that has the 3.35 radio built into it. I'd recommend upgrading to the latest, though.

If you still have no luck, then it would seem to me that there is something wrong with your GPS hardware.
