How to fix your GPS signal

This is a known issue with Verizon Thunderbolt and the GOOGLE GPS servers. Specifically, if you lost your signal, you may want to call Verizon and discuss replacing that phone. If your phone is under warranty, they should replace it. FYI... I had a applet called JUICE DEFENDER. This app actually cut off the GPS and 4G service. I had to remove JUICE DEFENDER and reset the phone to get my signals back.You may want to try that.Hope that works.Elgranpagan
