Then i think i updated to this 2.0.3 version and somehow i only get location from towers .. This version has 'my location beta' and i do have that feature activated .. yet, no gps accuracy !?

Is anyone esle having the same problems with the 8310 and Gmaps ??

Thanks,
AP.


P.S. yes, i am outside, BBmaps works with gps accuracy, Options-Advanced-GPS-Refresh shows 5 to 9 satellites registered, and every other GPS application that i have installed (GPSed for example) is having no problems communicating with the GPS

yes, all permissions for Gmaps is set to ALLOW and i have un/re/installed many times .. same problem !
I finally figured out how to get google maps work with internal gps 8310 4.5.0.18.
Google offers you wrong application to download if you go from your phone browser -40.You need 42.
Copy url and change all 40s to 42 and you will have goggle maps working with internal gps
