Ur GPS chip is different from ur radio. The satellite will still locate U but u cannot navigate if there is no way a data can access ur phone. The only way a satellite cannot lock on u is if U turn off ur phone completely.

Try this my brother, Put ur phone on flight mode then try to update ur weather. A simple application like that requires a data transfer isn't it?
