lol just restart the GPS. Or reboot the phone. Or wait a while longer. It took longer to get a lock on my phone today too.

Not gonna get the 1.72 update coz i'm on CM 6.1.1. Do not update if you intend to root the phone coz currently 1.72 is unrootable.

tried all... and i waited for like...30 minutes.....still not getting signal...OMG..

btw, how u restart GPS only apart from rebooting?

go download GPS Test. See if it detects any surrounding satelites. Just tried GPS Test, got a coordinate lock within 20 minutes, in my room.

THanks so much!.I did download that software, just not confident that it would solve my problem.

BUT at least i know you fixed yours - so i still have hope.. all is not lost nod.gif

^no it won't solve your problem. It will tell you if the GPS chip is detecting any satellites. If it's not, then got prob. If can detect, then you might want to let it run a while to get a lock.

Thanks to your advise, my GPS is now back on... notworthy.gif notworthy.gif

I guess i was too anxious and impatient when it stopped working.

I let my phone sit in front of my room window and hope that it sync...ALAS.. after 15 mins! i am seeing sunshine again..

Thank you thank you!!
