Ok, I have been bouncing roms around to find the best for me. So far I have landed on Confliper's alltel manilla rom. I have to say I do really like this rom:)
Anyway, I have been messing with the GPS since last night and I just cant get a fix. So as you can see I've been very frustrated and PULLING MY HAIR OUT ROFL!
Ever since I updated to the newest Alltel official 6.1 rom I havent had to use QPST and reg editor to set the ip addy's any longer until now. I tried that and several different programs to try and get a GPS fix. I just cant get one at all! Another thing is when I am at home I am roaming on Verizon towers and when I head into the city I am using the Alltel towers... So when I am at home I used to program the Verizon ip's to get a quick GPS fix or I wouldnt even get anything. Then when I know I'm going to town I program the phone with the Alltel ip's. But now I just can get anything even if I set the ip's manually.
So any input would be greatly appreciated. THA!
Edit: Just to let you all know I am using radio 3.42.30.. I have not updated to .50 yet.

Damn, I cant edit my post. Sorry for the double post:)
Ok, I feel like a total ass! For the hell of it I looked to see if location was turned on and it wasnt. So now I get 8 Sats right away. Out of curiosity I flashed to the other 2 roms I was having issues with and they didnt have the location turned on by default. So it wasnt me it was just that STUPID LITTLE SETTING!!!!
Thanks for your help!
