Apparently there is a bug in the SiRFstar III chip on the GM862-GPS that sometimes causes the GPS module to stop responding (e.g. AT$GPSACP returns nothing) which is a problem I have seen from time to time. Nothing will revive it without a full power down of the board, the built in GPS reset commands don’t bring it back. And apparently there is a potential fix involving a new SiRF firmware for the GM862. I found this all on the Round Solutions forum here:

What I don’t know is where to find the new SiRF firmware and how to apply it. Its not on Round Solutions, Telit, SiRF or any other site I can find.
Does anybody have it or know where to download it from?
UPDATE: Attempted to request it from Round Solutions. Got the stock answer: Support is for Round Solutions customers only.
