Default Patch Request - Auto enable GPS and Disable for WebOS 2.1

Hi,

Wondering if anyone else missed this patch after using a Pre 2. Cause I know i do. I have the gps option in the quick screen, but the auto enable gps upon opening maps was much more convenient. Is there a specific reason that the patch hasn't been updated yet?

Thanks

I did push an update to Preware that enables the auto GPS. I pushed one through that also enabled Auto GPS when Sprint Nav was on. I will send a GPS only option up. Here is the version until Preware pushes it through.

Mamouton is there a second one for sprint Nav. I can only find the one for google maps. I'm on 2.1 sprint.

Will this patch work with the new Bing maps update? I love the convenience of this patch and if it doesn't work with Bing maps, can I make my official request for an update? Thanks in advance!
