Hi all, I just flashed my Omnia with the leaked rom yesterday, and so far, it's running great. However, I can't seem to get a GPS lock. Location is set to "on", and I've configured TomTom and Google Maps to COM8/57600 baud, but still no lock. I have also tried installing a Today plugin. I've left my phone outside for over an hour (clear skies, no obstructions, etc.) ... anyone else having problems getting it to lock? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Thanks
bmn

Did you turn location on and then do a soft reset?

Also, try out Quick GPS. It's in a thread here called "Adryn did it again" or something like that..

Buy me a drink if I helped you out. :)

Thanks for the response - I've already soft-reset and forgot to mention that I have tried Quick GPS but to no avail ;)

Try reflashing the CC20 ROM then if you've tried everything and waited more than 20 minutes, because my initial lock with the Q-GPS took all of 45 seconds..

Reflashing won't help - Solved by reprogramming phone by dialing *228
