Guest Simon O Posted June 17, 2011 Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 Just a quick thread to get some feedback from U8800 owners. How are you finding the performance of the GPS? On B135, B136 and B137 it seems that the GPS performance on the phone I have isn't brilliant. Outside with clear sky the phone can only see one or two satellites and it doesn't appear to get a lock because of this. Turning on Xtra data speeds things up a bit but I guess this is because it's using AGPS. So I'm trying to find out if it's a general issue and if anybody has found a way to improve performance.

I have the same problem with B160, and it doesn't feel good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest That-Guy Posted June 17, 2011 Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 Seems to be working find for me on B136, faster at locking on to satellites than my old Blade ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's any better then I'll work something out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest aylanc3 Posted July 27, 2011 Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 I have no problem on my B136 - even: I am able to lock to some sats inside my house (of course near the window) Outside I get locked to at least 5-6 sattelites ( not less) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
