    I can't seem to get a GPS lock in gmaps, just cell-tri. BB Maps says i have no default service for it. I've turned location on.

    No way, they finished all their testing on time and released the device without any glitches.

    My GPS is working fine with the 5.0 upgrade. Works on Google maps as well

    The device at the store doesn't lock it. And the rep doesn't know whether it will work. I am getting it anyway. .

    For those who it doesn't work for. Do you have your GPS setting set to "Location On"


    Options> Advanced Options> GPS

    Are you outside because, BB Maps sometimes takes forever to locate in-doors??

    Also be aware that the Google Maps you're downloading IS NOT the correct one for the Storm with 5.x or Storm2 with 5.x OSs on them. Check the Storm Forums for the OTA links for this. I don't think Google has fixed the OTA Jad file to get you the right versions for touchscreen. Just FYI.

    We can't guarantee any gps will work. I WILL say we are not disabling gps so far as I know

    Is it version 3.2? Maybe Google fixed the Jad... It wasn't working last week or whenever it came out for people with Storms and OS5.

    I noticed it had a hard time locating me, even if outside, but it worked eventually. I think it uses cell tower or wi-fi if inside, and then once outside it's slow to switch to GPS, maybe?
