strange gps problem sprint curve

Hello eneryone

I dropped my Sprint 8330. No I didn't have a protective case or cover, I'm getting one today. Anyway know the gps is screwy, If I go and tell it for example to look for Starbucks, it will list all the nearby starbucks and their address and distance, but if I then go for turn by turn directions, the bar will move very slowly, and eventually stop at 99%. It will lock up there. I am obviously getting the satellite signal , since it can tell me nearby locations, it just can't give me turn by turn. Any idea?

Have you pulled the battery yet and rebooted?

You could try re-installing the app too if a batt pull doesn't work

Without knowing which app OP is using, I was holding back on the reinstall option.
