outside nokia factory??

Hmm how to set it without connecting the net?

Hmm, how come those GPS devices don't need Internet to track faster unlike our HPs?

because those gps have a more powerful chip so they lock faster without a-gps. But even so powerful sometimes it will get effected by building, weather and etc

But on the phone a-gps give u near instant lock time.

because those GPS devices keep on active... and the HP need to safe energy so no always on the gps chip...

That depends on location and reception also. In a cave in Sarawak and in KL where lock faster ah??

on n8 u can now even use WIFI to lock to the gps like before u go out lock first then 2nd and 3rd time will be fast within the few hours

U dont need data plan to get faster lock time. Just set as always ask and let it lock for the first time then disallow it to retrieve using data. Charges will be about 10cent per lock

I use it many many times di Hope that helps

Mine is sloooooow.
Hmm come to think of it I havent try to lock on it while driving, one day must try.

me worry free since have the dataplan... apa apa caplang also let the phone online... gps lah, mail lah, sosialnet lah... ALL ALIVE!!!...
GPS with data support less then 10 secs can get lock loh...

I've highlighted the keyword.
Wherever you are proving you have clear sight of sky you should get fast GPS lock.Am I correct aspire?

Mine also slow. My Nokia N900 lock even faster compare to N8

Using DiGi?
As far as I know only DiGi users can use dataplan without caring about the cap.
