Running stock phone with Gingerbread. So I was able to successfully install the GPSFix.zip file using the 18 step proc well documented in the Sprint community. I now routinely lock onto at least 90% of the satellites found as opposed to less than 40% before the fix.
But here's something I simply do not understand.. Google Navigation will lose the signal and report gps signal lost after a period of about 30-60 minutes, whereas Telenav, which I will sometimes run at the same time just to compare the two, rarely if ever drops the signal.. And, this seems to happen with Google Navigation when almost all the satellites are fixed onto! Why would Google Nav report signal lost when GPS Status app reports 7 out of 8 satellites locked onto? And why not Telenav?
Has anybody else noticed this? Its forcing me to use Telenav when I really prefer Google Navigation. BTW, I did a complete factory reset just a week ago. I cant figure out why this is happening...
Anybody?
