Re: GPS- is it the ROM or RADIO that affects lock?

Every firmware that is released is different.

As each update gets released the GPS lock time should get better especially if your Cell Provider added AGPS to the ROM. The newer ROM's have newer drivers that help in the (wakening ) of the GPS Signal. Others were slower in doing so and that is why the lock times where longer.


I personally don't use AGPS but instead have a good enough lock time of 15 to 45 seconds on my XV6800. It varies if I use baffles ( this gets me a quicker lock but it does drain your battery)
