Ive had them as quick as 4 seconds and as slow as 30 seconds.

Sure you are doing a cold lock?

I tested from a clean flash, each time before posting. Doesnt get any colder than that.

yep - cold lock; days between locks and in a different location
Does flashing a new rom remove the gps almanac data from memory (can be found in EFS explorer using QPST)? A 4 second cold TTFF without aGPS sounds too good to be true.

I dont see why it wouldn't.

You are the expert with QPST--wanna give it a shot and let us know?

I know prior to this, it took me in the upwards of 5+ minutes to get a GPS lock after a flash.

i900 users need not apply. They have a much better app for this, via GPS_Xtra.

Any help please?

i900 users have a better program available, I think it's called QPST or something like that

Where can I find this QPST? Will this support for Navigation program like TomTom or iGO?

You can find it via torrent...it is an internal qualcomm tool.

The next time I flash a rom I will check EFS for GPS almanac data.

Sorry - I am using i910 with winmo6.5 rom.
Anyone using i900 know how to connect to QPST?

/sigh You aren't going to use QPST.. You're going to use GPS Quick Position posted in Adryn's thread at PPC Geeks (Link in first post).

i900 = QPST
i910 = GPS Quick Position

[dwallersv]

Here is GPS Quick Position, with a screenshot. This is the better of the two apps that Adrynalyne found.

(unrelated question: How do you guys insert images into a post? I upload the image as an attachment, insert the attachment into the post, preview the post, than copy the image URL from the post preview and use the insert image feature to then put the actual image in the post, and delete the attachment line that was inserted prior; surely there's gotta be a better way!)
