How about turning off A-GPS and Network positioning?

Hi seanbhy

 

Confusing it maybe but two processes involved, OVI Maps and Positioning server. Go to Menu > Applications > Location > Positioning > Positioning server > Positioning server use and select one of the four available options to choice.

Happy to have helped the forum in a small way from 2007-10

For the first time ever?

1. With A-GPS offit can take an hour or more. With it off I can usually have a signal in anywhere between 1min-20min, and there are times when I just wont get a signal.

2. With A-GPS on I get it in less than 1min.
