GPS not working after flashing 2.2 roms

[luketrocity]

Its not any 1 rom in particular, its all 2.2 roms. I have tried 4 different 2.2 Roms with the same result. GPS does not turn on.

Every 2.2 Rom I flash disables the GPS from ever being turned on. As soon as I downgrade back using nandroid backup it works just fine. Any ideas?

Stupid question...but you do have "location on," correct?

Most ROMs don't have it on by default.

Also, your GPS won't come on until a program calls for it.

Its fine to ask. Yes I do have it on and Apps never find my location. I use the GPS a LOT on 2.1 so its a deal breaker not having it.

Have you been over to XDA? Check with the thread for your ROM to see if anyone else is having problems.

There were a couple of complaints about GPS not working in the ROM I'm using now...but it's worked great for me.

If you rooted to 2.2, did you upgrade your radio? My gps didn't work the first time I rooted until I updated my radio now everything is fine.

For future reference a radio update did fix this issue.

That's good. Its a simple thing but easy to forget to do when you root.

It's not working for me either. I'm running 2.2. I haven't updated my 'radio'; I don't even know what that means. Anything else I can try?
