Re: What is the reason for terrible GPS performance on the Vogue?

Ok, just tested mine with google maps after not using the gps part for at least a week.

I got 6 sats from my living room in 13 seconds. Ok, could have been 14, but you get my point.

I reset, tried it with live, < 4 seconds.

I powered off the phone, back on, and got locks in my living room with google in 6 seconds.

I powered off, and back on, used TomTom, and got locks in just under 14 seconds.

Not a very scientific method. second counter on digital watch, but it is still faster than my car!

Of course, I didn't BUY this to be my gps, I have dedicated units for that, but for it being a win mobile PPC and phone.
Hmm

I might try seeing how long after a reset with the phone radio off (airplane mode) to see if it affects lock time.
