gps fix????!!!!

---

How can i easily fix the gps on this thing. It will either never find my location and therefore wont navigate, or it is off by a couple of streets rendering it useless. I dont want to do any technical stuff like roms or what not

Can you describe with more details?

What ROM, kernel? Stock or custom?

Do you have internet Connection? Wi-Fi?

When it occurs? Did you ever have this problem before?

all i have is root and it was the same story before root.

i have internet, wifi works, i dont see why that would affect gps though

99% of the time gps cannot locate a signal and when it does it hops around

i have always had trouble with gps since i got this pile of junk. in the beginning it was better though

I have the same issues too, gps is junk right now, used to work, slow but work but now it just keeps trying to locate a signal and nothing happens. My droid incredible pulls in 9-11 sats in 10-15 seconds while in the same spots.

Really, that link I posted covers Froyo and Gingerbread, so it is not outdated. Also upgrading to ICS will fix your GPS.
