Congrats on getting it working. I was able to test using airplane mode in the US previously. It just seemed that the GPS driver was written in a way that wouldn't lock outside the US/North America. It would "see" sats, but never achive a lock. Now I can get locks all the time, but it is slow, and there are occasional sudden resets while seeking the lock (I haven't experienced any once the lock is made).

As a clarification, you only need to turn on something (bluetooth, cell, or WiFi) to get TomTom 7 to not think the phone is in flight mode and access the GPS. It seems TomTom7 feels that the GPS is not active if flight mode is on. The GPS will lock just fine with everything else turned off. It's just a software issue with TomTom itself.

I still think the GPS driver has a bias of some sort to North America. Even though VisualGPS will show 6 sats seen, 3 sats in use, it still won't lock until a 4th sat come in use. Also, it can have "5 sats seen", all with over 30mdB for several minutes before getting a lock.

Now to earn some points with Navizon.
