I had the hack installed and working and started messing around with the GPSSample.exe app in the Windows Mobile 6 SDK. I'm not sure how I got it into this state, but my GPS is now no longer visible to any apps on the phone. I've uninstall/reinstalled the hack, rebooted, took the battery out in case it was a hardware hang, etc. Nothing.
Can anyone post the registry settings from their working BJII w/ GPS? What are your port/baud settings in the (GPS)Settings.exe app? I haven't tried a hard reset to fix this yet - trying to avoid that at all costs since I have about 25 other apps installed. Any suggestions to get my GPS working again would be most appreciated. |

The hack seems to be what messes the GPS up to begin with. Uninstall the hack. What apps are you trying to use with the GPS?

When I first started fumbling with the GPS I installed Microsofts GPSID thingy, which seemed to work. Later I installed the hack here and then my GPS totally shut off, even after I uninstalled both. I ended up hard resetting to fix the problem. Now I just use the hack here. |

When I hard reset my phone, it was new and I didn't have much on it. Now I'd hate to have to hard reset over something like this. |
