change your server to supl.google.com. See if it improves

i tried that the other day and it failed to get a lock at all.

i've noticed once it gets a lock and i turn the gps off, if i turn the gps back on it never locks on, i have to reboot to get it to lock on again

Re: GPS gone crazy in PR1.2
 
I am having a slightly different problem. It's showing my location (red dot) correctly, when I do a search and press "route to" it calculates the route from A (GPS location) to B (searched location), however A is not my GPS location and not near enough to the red dot. It's showing A as 2 roads down from mine which is more than 700 meters away, there is even a railway line between. This is a problem because the purple line showing the route starts from A which I cannot follow. Just to clarify the red dot dynamically showing my location is still correct and seems to be updating fine, I use both internal GPA and network for positioning.

I use the map application regularly and never had issues picking up the location or routing with the previous firmware.

I've been using the google thing since day 1 and my lock has been pretty accurate.

Try this supl.google.com:7276

Got it from here http://groups.google.com/group/andro...acd01452?pli=1
