Just info.

a-gps is assisted gps. To calculate your location, gps required latest satellite data. This called almanac data. Basically it's contain latest satellite location, this info is required for gps to calculate ur location.

This data usually is downloaded through gps satellite itself. But the process required about 30-45 sec. So A-GPS is introduce so this almanac data is downloaded from the server using data line which only take a few second.

i heard many ppl complained saying tat ppg takes very long time to lock the satellite.. izit true??

I don't use PPG but I believe locking of satellite not depends on the software u use. It's depend on gps driver.

If you can't get the lock.. try use original maps.. after getting lock go back to PPG and see.
