( GPS positioning has a lot to do with the relation of a signal sent on a certain time clock... It has to be accurate all the time) I didn't have this phone exactly a year ago so I can't tell if there was an issue in 2008 .

You are right that getting a GPS fix is all about having the correct time between the device and the satellites..

I did have the time +1 hr problems with some rom's I have tried but not with the ones that I had the GPS problems with. Strange that mine at least sometimes got an accurate fix before it crashed.

Hope this goes away on Sunday.....
