Since I've had my tour and installed Google Maps I can never seem to get it to pinpoint my exact location. Its always saying that my location is within XXXX meters and its awaiting for the GPS and it never works. Then it sometimes locks up. Never had this problem on my 8330. I've even tried to uninstall and reinstall no luck. If anyone could help me out here I would gladly appreciate it. Thanks.

For me google maps gives me the within xxxx meters read out too however if I zoom in it's my exact location so I don't think it's a problem on all tours.

Have you verified that you have location on in the options for your gps? On the main home screen, your gps icon should have three curved lines next to it, if it doesnt you need to go to the gps options, i believe in the advanced pane, and set it to location on.
Scott.jeffreys can you please post the link where I can find this information? I've tried searching before and found nothing.

to make a long story short, it's the GPS firmware Sprint uses. It's an issue Goodle needs to address. A similar issue happened with Poynt and it was fixed by the developer. Just hang tight, hopefully it will be fixed soon by Google.
Anyway after you appear on the screen for a while, it seems that you are not moving anywhere and it shows updating location....... sometimes it moves and not move.....will solve this problem very soon.....Let me try.
