Same problem with the same device. Mytracks shows this message, but GPS sensor 
works and app tracks the route.

Same issue with an EVO 3D.  App reports no GPS yet it appears to trek fine.  
Also note the GPS status indicates None too.

on my htc wildfire i get the message also. in the settings menu the sensor type 
choices are "bluetooth" or "none". in sensor state it says "none" also and you 
get no stats. it still records a track just fine though.

My suggestion; only have the message show if GPS isn't enabled and you tap 
'Record Track'. That way, the nag is intercepted at the point when it has the 
most relevance (and perhaps provide a way to dismiss the message if GPS isn't 
desired).

For my usage pattern, the message is unnecessary and in the way. With that 
said, I can appreciate that there have been many bug reports from others when 
they forget to turn on GPS.
