Seemingly after the 2.2 update, now my live wallpaper is whacked. Not that is was incredibly stable before...
Today at work, it shows me being at home. So I walk outside to get a satellite fix. No change. In Manage Applications, I wiped Google Maps data clean. Went back and selected Live Wallpaper Maps again. Oh, so now I'm in Tulsa!? Sorry, that's just a bit down the road from Seattle.
Hmmm. Went into the Google Maps app and looked at my location, which was correct. Went to Manage Applications and wiped Maps data clean again. Cycled phone power.
After restarting, I loaded a different (static) wallpaper. Then loaded Maps Live Wallpaper again. No change.
This sucks. Tulsa isn't even on my list of places I want to see before I die.

OK, had a chance to play with it last night.
Something I did not know: Maps live wallpaper apparently does not use GPS at all. I noticed in Settings/Location & security that "Use wireless networks" had been de-selected. I checked the box, went back and loaded my wallpaper again. Viola!
One question that lingers though.
Why Tulsa? Is that Mecca for VerizonWireless?
