Re: Former Alltel users and GPS problems

I noticed quick locks today too (and I try just about everyday on the way to work). It locked near my house and then picked up again after a long drive and warm start, which usually causes it to take as long to lock as a cold start (minutes for me). I've had times when it seemed to work better than others, so I'll keep checking it for the next week or so before I jump for joy (though I very much hope you're right).

I still don't understand how any network issue would cause a GPS problem without using aGPS (requiring PDE server authentication). Maybe there is a feature in gpsOne that can require some type of authentication from the network, but in that case what happens when you're out of network or in airplane mode? Maybe that's not the use case GPS is there for on your phone, but it seems limiting anyway.

Edit: I don't need a week. Something's definitely changed for the better. It works reliably now. Hallelujah.
