Weird thing happened. I had gps off using gps toggle. I had plugged my omnia into my usb cable and walked away. After about an hour, I noticed the screen was bright, which surprised me. I checked and the gpstoggle app on the today screen shows gps on with six green bars and the lock # is 7. I opened google maps and it found my location correctly instantly.

However, I closed google maps and opened bing and it just locks up tighter than a....

My new wiz-bang task switcher (I don't know what it is but it came with adryn's 6.1 1.7 rom and is totally cool) doesn't show any tasks running and also stops responding.

I did a soft reset and started google maps again (with gpstoggle showing gps off). It finds my location and says I have 7 active gps signals (I guess that's what it means) but the today screen gpstoggle app shows gps off. Kinda funky.

I then closed google maps, started bing and the map utility option 'track me using gps' works. Maybe it just needed lots of time to start working.

On the other hand, the 'locate me' thingy still just gives me the 'cannot automatically find' yada, yada, error.

I think the gpstoggle isn't really turning gps on/off but turning 'monitoring on the today screen' on/off.

I do have the phone gps setting to location and not 911 only. So maybe this turns the gps on always. How's that for battery life? I guess we'll see.
