Hi gurus,

I already trying Quick GPS which I never use before, but it's still wont help

I reinstall the ROM , the Radio ROM, trying few Radio too but still the GPS hard to find the satellite

Re: GPS took so long to find the sattelite

Lately i have found myself becoming more and more of a fan of this little gadget. it will let you see the progress as the gps tries to get your corrdinates including the sattellites that you are connecting to as you go bout. its pretty neat. I use this first and once coordinates are established, fire up BING Maps and BAM! Instantly it shows where you are on the map

it "primes" the GPS chip. you should be able to find it on here with a search.
