GPS Lag with Sprint Nav on Touch Pro

Hello,

I got my Touch Pro yesterday and have to say that I love it!

I am experiencing a bit of a lag when using the Sprint Navigation however. When driving, it shows my location as approaching a street that I have already traveled past.

Anyway to bring it up to speed?

Thanks!

On XDA there is a thread about this; seems the GSM version has had the same issue for awhile.

Here is a link:

Yeah, experiencing this on my Diamond AND Touch Pro... keep hoping someone can come up with a solution, because otherwise its pretty useless as a navigation tool.

I think it's something in sprint's network... something which will hopefully be fixed.

Sprint Nav used to work perfectly on my mogul, but for the last 5-6 weeks, it's been laggy too...

Is this problem only with Sprint Nav?

Definitely not. There are many people experiencing the issue with TomTom, Garmin, etc.

there is a program called quick gps under the programs file. this may help.. I have no complaints..

I am experiencing this with iGuidance as well. I will stick with bluetooth receiver until this issue is resolved. Pretty disappointing as I was pretty excited about having everything on one device. Hopefully it is rectified soon.

drewman, are you saying when you use quick gps you have no lag problem and when you don't you do?

Same here, GPS lag sucks.
