well provider has nothing to do with GPS, if you dont want to prime with data usage using a aGPS then I dont know what else to tell you. I cant explain why sometimes you can get a sat and sometimes you cannot or why sometimes it takes longer. I do know that when I was doing just GPS like you I would get the same results. Most of the time it would lock. It locked faster when I was more recently locked previously. At other times it would never get a lock even after I would reboot it once or twice. After waiting so long I would eventually give up. GPS for me on the device is something to play with bc I have a stand-alone GPS unit in my truck
