Unhappy [Q] [Help!] GPS not working on my Fit

Hello guys, i've been looking for every kind of rom that this phone haves....for real...almost wasted alot of time searching for a fix for my GPS.

What i want to know is...does your GPS's works normally after flashing a new rom?

I'm from south america, brazil, and i cant even find a satellite...

Any kind of help would be awesome...

It works really well for me O.O i tried the GPS inside of my house, takes about 3 seconds to get a fix, using CyanogenMod.

Try using FasterFix from market?

Try install GPS status from market, cince this software will download RIL file (file satelite location) which will lock sateliite faster

Thanks everyone for the answers and the help.

Since i got this GPS problem, and, some others, like, slow graphics in some cases, low res screen, and low internal memory for apps, i sold my fit and bought a MS2 xD.
Thanks again for everyone.
