So this weekend while waiting in vain for Little Miss to arrive I finally took the time to update the ROM in my phone. When I got the phone (an HTC Mogule pic) I got the more expensive data plan for two reasons. First I needed it to qualify for the $150 rebate on the hardware. Second the plan was suppose allow the GPS on the hardware to give me driving directions. This was key to me because I wanted a phone that could let me check my email on the road and give me driving direction. That way I can leave my laptop and GPS at home and just take one device, my phone on most business trips. Well the ROM that came with the phone when I bought it could not access the GPS hardware for some bizare reason I never figured out. A few months ago HTC (the manufacture) and Sprint final release a new ROM that granted access to the GPS chip for both Sprint Telnav application and third party applications. After waiting through the first rash of bugs I finally installed the ROM this weekend. All in all it works pretty good and has open up a bunch of new uses for my phone.
