Well, the problem might be related to being on the other side of the earth. Any time I've used the GPS without phone service I've been in the United States. Several times in extreme Northern Michigan (without service), and several times on flights accross the country.
Maybe the GPS drivers (I'm not expert on this) don't include satelite lock information for satalites not in North America's sky. I could be wrong, and maybe someone with a Titan can chime in with success they've had away from North America. In theory the GPS chip can work without any phone service. But it might not know where to look for satelites when you're on another continent.
*Edit* I just saw you weren't the one who said you were overseas. You say you were in the mountains. I was just actually out in Colorado and drove in the Rocky Mountain National Park. I went in and out of service going up the mountains, and my TomTom 7 kept on going without a hitch.
