GPS Issue When Traveling
 

I have meant to write about this before. I have really never had a major issue with my GPS once I got it unlocked. I do generally get fairly fast locks. However I do travel with my job quite a bit. It seems that every time I get off the plane & into a rental car. It takes forever to get a lock. It has taken me sometime as long as 45 minutes. Has anyone else experienced this or have an explanation. I have tried resetting my phone several times, tweaking the registry, & using Clean Ram.

I used to see this sometime with my Dell navigation system for my X51v.

Have you tried or do you use Quick GPS?
Give it a try:

It downloads gps info and saves it to a log which helps to get faster locks. ;)

I would also recommend that if you are using AGPS, that you first connect a phone call and then a data transmission. This will help with the position being acquired faster from the towers.

I go into the options of the GPS (on Garmin XT), there is a setting for a new location, and point it to roughly where I (now) am on the map. It seems to pick up much faster then. I have never seen a lock take longer than 3 mins.
