Today in car, I spent more than 5 minutes trying to get lock onto GPS via:
WayFinder 7
aMazeGPS
but I was unable to get a connection.  I switched on my aGPS and still no connection. I am using R1BA042 firmware. And .. sigh Why so bad...

Hey everyone,
Just wanted to ask....does anyones gps work accuratly on google maps application.
Mine works...but not accuratly, like, it locates me, roughly, but its always about 500 meters out. I could never use it to pinpoint exactly where i am for example so would b useless if i was lost.
Does anyone elses do this or does i work perfectly? |

Well if its 500 metres out then its doing it by your network signal and it is very vague. It wont use the gps signal until it has a lock on then its within 30metres. It is good and gps works fine with latest da032 firmware |

My G705's GPS works fine and gets locked in less than a minute, sometimes faster but at other times it takes longer. I think it depends on the position of satellites because the number of sats it gets locked on varies from day to day, at same position.
In car it can take up to 3-4 mins to lock. |

I can get a pretty quick satellite lock, but i have noticed that my W760 GPS seemed to be more stable than my C905 using Wayfinder and Amaze GPS apps.
There is some delay in tracking me in both of these apps, but it wasn't there in my W760. |

my new AT&T C905a just stopped being able to receive a GPS signal
It was working fine the other day.. now it cannot find satellites, even out in open area.
has anyone else seen this?
EDIT: Strange, its able to lock onto a signal now.. maybe there were just no satellites in my area for 30 minutes.. weird
