First check and see if you can get service there because unless you get a signal I don't think gps will work.
You would have to disable agps completely if you can't get a cellular signal and I'm not sure if gps will function on the diamond without it. 
You may just have to settle for maps that could be saved to your diamond's memory for reference.

Even if i could get service, it would be too expensive to use. I will turn off the radio for cellular service when I arrive to save battery and eliminate chance of expensive roaming charges.
The GPS is supposed to work without a cell signal. Having a cell signal just speeds up getting a lock and estimating roughly where you are if you lose satellite lock.
I haven't found any GPS-aware maps to save to the phone memory. That's what I'm looking for. |
Have you tried getting a gps lock with your radio off?
