GPS Crashing?

---

Sorry if this is a dupe, I can't seam to search just a form form with the mobile app.

Has anyone else has a issue where after a few days GPS stops working? Anything that requests a fix doesn't get anything, maps and gps fix. Toggling GPS or Airplain modes doesn't fix it. I end up having to reboot, thanks for no reboot option in the power menu moto, and then it works fine.

It seams like a odd bug. I do use task killer somewhat frequently. Are there any apps that will let me restart gps?

I am having the same issue. One day it works fine, then a couple days later, no go! It doesn't even bring up the icon in the status bar showing that it is trying to get a fix. I have a hard time believing that no one else is running into this issue.

A reboot fixes it, so I have this strange feeling there is an app/process of some sort that is making it hang...

Same here. Always does it at the most inconvenient times too.

There have been satellite issues over the last few weeks - solar flares and whatnot - that have disrupted service. Task killers, also, could also be screwing up your system. Tasks aren't the same thing on your phone that they are on Windows, and don't actively use up power and memory. Android generally manages tasks quite well. Using a task killer is wasting more energy than not using it would, I'd bet.

I get the same issue.

I put the GPS widget on a home screen. I click GPS off - wait a sec - and click it back on. Works.

I usually have to reboot as well. I've noticed the gps icon just doesn't show up at all.

which reminds me. I really hate VZ navigator. It keeps running.

Alright. post 2 (trying to keep it useful...)
