Re: VOGUE only: Average Number of GPS Satellite Locks?

Wasn't getting jack but I downloaded and ran the ppst .cab in the "Sprint still having GPS issues" sticky and now I'm getting 8 sats in about 5 seconds, even in my bedroom. Outside I am getting 8 or 9. I'm located in Louisville, Ky.

Re: VOGUE only: Average Number of GPS Satellite Locks?

Is there a way to strengthen GPS reception through some setting or registry modification (besides having an open sky)

You may have already done this and are looking for something else but there is a registry setting that you can change and it is explained in the thread that I spoke about in my previous post. Hope that helps you some.

Re: VOGUE only: Average Number of GPS Satellite Locks?

i usually get 3-4, so i checked 4, i think that's more accurate than up to 7 (which i've never seen).

Re: VOGUE only: Average Number of GPS Satellite Locks?

What's the difference between the '2' setting and the '4' setting?
