Google Map finder Works with Navizon
Well I took the plunge and updated my jail broke and unlocked 1.1.2 to 1.1.3 (I'm on rogers) everything went great except my edge was busted, so I reset the network settings and then I could use my edge.
The next thing i tried was Google map locater and the indicator kept spinning and it would not work. I then read that you need the new baseband in order to get it to work so i tried installing navizon (it doesn't work very well) it found me three blocks away.
To get to my point, I then tried the Google locater again and now it works
It found my exact location!!
I completely redid everything and confirmed that Navizon allows Google locater to work..

I did the same thing with locate me. It appears both programs open up a port allowing it to work.

god if only the ringtones thing worked (without having to convert them to other formats or anything like that) I would upgrade to 1.1.3... I sooo need webclips and rearanging icons by just draging. also not having 2 sms's programs is great.... but god damned ring tones! I also have some itunes purchased ones and they dont work either.

The temporary Navizon install seems to have fixed the locate me and my Hybrid view as well... cool. Goole map is still working after removing Navizon (Navizon not working in Australia anyway) Google locate me is pretty good, with approx. 1km radius when I try at home, will see how it goes when there are more cell towers around.

Google Maps Locator
I upgraed my phone from 1.1.1 to 1.1.3 yesterday. I had a few difficulties but the only one that remains is the Google map locator. Imediately after I upgraded I tried the locator. It worked perfectly. After I fixed the ring tones and did the other 1.1.3 tweeks the locator stopped working. I installed "locate me". If I start locate me it makes google maps locator work perfectly. Bad news is, if you turn the phone off google maps locator stops working. I tried it with both "locate me" and "Navizon". Both make google maps work but niether seems to be a permanent fix.
