GPS Lag? - Page 2

Exactly, that's the same problem I'm having.

It may not be as prominent on something like TomTom, but it sure is with Google Maps.

And this is the Touch Pro 2 you're talking about??

I use TomTom with my TP and it still lags the same

Seeing as I only have a Touch Pro2, yes

The same thing happened with my P4000/Mogul.

Wow, my moguls gps performance was just about perfect compared to the tp.

It may have been a tich better, but really not that much in comparison.

I think I only tried TomTom for a second on my p4000 and realized it took up too much memory and gave up

I'd like to know if more people are having issues, though. I would like it to be faster.

Half the people I know with a Diamond or Touch Pro didn't know about the GPS lag until I pointed it out, and then they couldn't stand it anymore. Just like the two faint horizontal lines on a Sony Trinitron CRT. Once you see them, you can't forget them!!!

If I get confirmation that the Sprint TP2 has fixed/mostly fixed the lag, I'm in. GPS is my killer app, since I'm directionally retarded and travel across the country frequently. Plus I have large hands so the extra screen real estate and bigger keyboard makes me feel funny inside.

I had a Mogul and I never had any noticeable lag. When I got the Touch Pro, it was pretty bad. Now with the Touch Pro 2, it's still there very slightly, but MUCH less noticeable.

i haven't seen too much lag yet (only had it for about 24 hours now), but one thing I definitely noticed was the accuracy of my location in Google Maps. On my unlocked, custom ROM TP, it would show me how many satellites I was connected to, but not with the stock TP2 and new Google Maps. It says my location within "900 yards" which in my neighborhood is like 5 blocks away.

My TP1 had no lag at all; the TP2 though is very bad. As another said, it slows down/pauses and then catches up.

I had the TP1 and now the TP2, lag on both.
