Yes. It catches signal after 15-20 seconds. Earlier FW it was about 2 minutes.



Is AGPS turned on now? You could check in the Location settings.

You must be really lucky. I couldn't even manage a lock in 10mins on a cold start.

No. It's only GPS signal. I turn the rest off.

Btw, 3.03 sux because you cannot review the route on the app itself but have to launch Ovi online to view it. Other than that, it's more accurate than 3.01 but has bugs like you mentioned (freezes occasionally). I kinda like Ovi more than ndrive and sygic because the latter two don't have free map update. With Ovi, I can download all four continents and store it on my massive MMC.

3.03 doesn't have show route function so you would need to go online to view the route, on 3.01 there's such a function and you are able to view all the "turning points" on your handphone. Can you install it and try?

hey guys, thought i'd post this here rather than making a new thread, as it seemed appropriate.
When I used google maps, the little blue arrow telling me where i am does not stay in one place, despite the fact i am not moving. it is constantly moving around the general area of where i am. on my old lg renoir, this never happened. can anyone explain this to me? or think of a possible solution/reason? thank you

maybe it's too hyper? possibly it try to locate your location? are you in the well hidden area where satillite is hard to track? honest i dont know.

alrite about my Garmin XT .. yes i experience the same inaccuracy calculation of speed. when my car not moving it show that im 2.5 km/h at a moving distance. Also when im driving, the reading is not accurate for a few seconds and it's fine after that.

Oh well ill try to search for fix if not i think i can live with that as i dont really look at the speed on my phone rather than on my car
