Remember that little problem HTC Dream owners were having with 911 on the Rogers network? It's spreading, and it looks like the HTC Magic (that's the one on the left) has caught the bug, too. And the fix is the same, too: Turn off GPS. Here's the official statement from Rogers.
“We are in the process of contacting all of our Magic customers by text message asking them to disable GPS location on their Rogers HTC Magic device to ensure all 911 calls complete.
To turn off your GPS, go to Menu>Settings>Location>Uncheck Enable GPS Satellite. Again, let's hope we see a fix for this real quick. [via MobileSyrup]
