Re: GPS - how to remove satellites from phone's memory?

Your wrong, GPS sats are in MEO (medium earth orbit). They Move and You move. Stop talking out of your @$$.

OP is correct, the chip does recall sats based on recently downloaded stattelite location information or Almanac. Thats why right after you get a lock its easier to get another one right after. But if you move, or they move, it still thinks the sats are their.

That is also why HTC quick GPS data expires after a while.

Now as to how to fix it, I have no IDEA
