Root Cm7 gps?

[Enzosdad]

I cant seem to get CM7.2 to lock gps----after 30 min wait i say f-it, or will say GPS/Maps not available in my area....i live in Portland----is there a fix? and dont tell me reflash and wipe--only works with small fix's on certain roms...i wiped and re-flashed 5 times already and still doing same thing and for smart ass's out there yes i wiped everything

The standard method is to make a nandroid backup of your cm7, flash a sense rom, get a gps lock, then restore your backup. Gps should work after that.

That's what I did (yesterday) and was able to get a GPS lock in CM7.

I made sure I got a lock in GPS Status and the stock navigation app in the stock ROM before flashing. On my previous thunderbolt, I flashed BAMF Forever and did the same thing, then flashed to get a lock in CM7.

I'm not sure if there is a way to do it without reflashing.

You can reflash, but it isn't necessary. Restoring a nandroid will work just as well.
