Ok, this is what you do.


This program downloads a list of sattelite locations (up to a week). Google Maps can read these locations. I have not tested with other apps yet. Its basic. The GUI sucks. It cannot even establish its own internet connection, so provide it!

1. Download and install cab.
2. If GPS wasnt set to location on, set it to location on, and soft reset.
3. Establish a net connection. Opening IE is fine.
4. Open Q-GPS. Click download.
5. It will say succeeded when done.
6. Open Gmaps, and configure it.
7. Set it to Use GPS.

Thats it!

It isnt always as quick as I like--my last test took 30 seconds to cold lock.

Give it a shot!

It "seems" to work with WLS as well... About 30 seconds or so.. Definitely faster than before... Good find!! Need to build into your ROMs now!

Sitting at home, BING it, and BONG! in about 15 sec. Not so working with Garmin.
So Bim Bam thanks Ma'am.
Now Bing wont do as fast but the fact that I got a lock at home (first for me) proves that Adrynalyne is the man. Only thing is that the app has one Ugly icon
