My Location on Donut

[Pandemic187]

I just thought I'd post on this because apparently I'm not the only having this problem but I'm not sure what has caused it. My location was working on Donut, but for some reason that no longer seems to be the case. I can let you know the specific files I'm using if need be, but I've tried different combinations of files to go along with different Donut system.sqsh files and it still doesn't seem to work.

Is there a particular reason for this of which I haven't been made aware?

I see a bunch have viewed this but no one has replied. If anyone can use My Location on Donut, could you at least confirm that for me? Thanks.

I've never been able to get 'My Location' to work on any build, but Google Maps in WM has always worked... I would also love to see this issue solved!

It will work on your first boot of donut with a new data. After that, it doesn't work anymore. The devs need to rework the code (zImage or rootfs or somewhere). I'm sure they'll get to it soon. Until then, we wait patiently or learn how to code and help out! :)

Thank you for the response. I heard this from someone else, but it didn't even work on first boot for me, so I'm not sure. In any case, if it doesn't work for anyone after that initial boot, then I'll just have to wait.

I can't even get it work on Cupcake now. I don't know what the deal is.

I don't know if you care, but My Location does work on Zen's senseHero-v1.3.3. You can find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=582372

I keep going back and forth between senseHero and craig0r's Donut-Ion build with fixed Market found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=568580

SenseHero has GPS and My Location; Donut-Ion has the camera working. With Market-Enabler.apk, found here: http://code.google.com/p/market-enabler/downloads/list you'll be able to get the paid apps on either build.

I just have the two builds on two different 2GB microSD cards. It's easy to carry the spare and change at will.

I'm sure you already tried this, but make sure you have checked "allow location / gps blah blah blah" in your settings...just a thought.

Yep...checked that. ;)

I'll give those a try now. I don't usually like HERO builds as much as the less themed ones, but we'll see.

Can any developers, if you see this post, say whether or not you're aware of this issue? As always, I'm not doing the developing so I don't want to be ungrateful. Just wondering what the deal is.
