[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] gahbmwm5:
Outstanding (thus far) on successfully utilizing both Bing Mobile v5.1.2010.6280, Google Maps v4.1.1!

First going into Settings---->GPS Settings

1 GPS Setting--->Start Test----***

2 GPS Test---->this initiate GPS Chartcross app--->make sure--->Menu #4 GPS Setting:

Com Port: COM4

Baud Rate: 38400---->Save

The above will 'help jumpstart' the entire GPS process--->You want to get status--->Green circle--->GPS Running

Bing running beautifully--->Locate Me functions properly!

Google Mobile Maps---->Needs to be setup this way--->in order for the new Beta--->My Location feature to work correctly:

Menu--->Settings---->Use GPS--->checked

GPS Settings---->Need to change this from Manage by Windows---->to

Set Manually---->COM port: COM4 Baud rate: 38400

Now when going to Google Maps--->Home Screen---->GPS active (5, 6...xxx)

Edit

"The problem that I had was same. Fixed with htc touch pro 2 was that windows was not setting the right com port for google maps. Set google maps to use the com port that windows is using for gps. Mine happened to be com port 4. Works fine now. "

Quoting this from a post within this thread....Instead of 'Allowing Windows to manage GPS settings (which worked before with this v4.1.1), out of curiousity, I too set a 'Manual GPS settings....checking Port 04---->which I know works on my Samsung BJII i617 device, set up:

GPS Settings----->Set Manually

COM port: COM4

Baud rate: 38400

And 'My Location' feature is now working properly.....

Great stuff Dermann...now back to exploring...lol

;)

Ok it looks like this 'Power Light' app---->FN Key Settings--->M--->Power Light--->does not seem to work (as I recall on py8 thread, there was a tweak...to allow it to work?

Now it seems that my backlight will not go off...lol ? Have tried every possible combination-->Settings---->Power Management

~~~~~~~~~~~EDIT~~~~~~~~~

Sorry about the above, please disregard as I pulled the battery, then reset both display and backlight time out for both battery and A/C---->All seems to working correctly now...lol :)

Power Light app--->still does not work...and it seems display brightness levels are acting up...lol ?

Pulled the battery again, and now 'display settings' are back to normal function!...

Back Again...having fun! It's been awhile since I have done all this exploring:

Just some personal tweaks to possibly 'speed up GUI' as I see you have this tweak in:

*** speed up the interface ***

Display cache increase

RegKey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GDI\GLYPHCACHE

Change from 16384 to 32768

You have this one--->name: limit-->DWORD Data: 61440--->possibly hex---->or super tweak for 6.5 ROM...lol

Filesystem caching (default is turned off)

RegKey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS

Change entry for CacheSize from 0 to 1024

RegKey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS

Change entry for EnableCache from 0 value to 1

Create RegKey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Filters\fsreplxfilt

Change entry for ReplStoreCacheSize from 0 to 1024
