bobobird thank you again!

could you post here an updated file for me to try to see if there is a change on may device that dont seem do download?

Upgraded to HI2 and the settings are slightly different but I havent enabled it so that could be the reason. There is probably no reason now to enable xtras considering that gps fix is quite fast - 2 or 3 minutes initially and almost immediate on subsequent use.

test.agps.com is still listed - yes, domain doesnt show up in browser. But, data does come in via wifi - not sure where from.

I've tried the default (test.agps.com:7275) and the one mentioned by Ingvarr (xtra1.gpsonextra.net:80), they both work fine.

Am a bit amazed at the amount of time the Omnia needs to update the info. It takes a good 2 minutes to get the 37,5 kb of information, which seems rather slow (unless a lot of data calculations are needed that I'm not aware of..). Is it this slow for anyone else?

Yes, its slow for me.

However I think this is bug introduced in firmwares somewhat since HH.

With original HG firmware I defenitely had almost no wait on XTra download.

HELP!!! :rolleyes:

I'm totally confused of what I'm suppose to do here! Am I suppose to input all the above string into my registry b/c my phone only has the following:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Samsung\RIL]

GPS

Priority

VPhone

NO XTRA

* Under the following string all I have uner GPS is the following:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Samsung\RIL\GPS]

Default (value not set)

Running 0x0 (0)

So I would appreciate if you someone (anyone) could give me step by step instructions of what I'm suppose to do!

Many Thanks!

Have you tried typing in *#1472365# into your Omnia?

It brings up some extra gps settings, some of which are similar to settings that can be reached in registry but some are unique.

The main one that was of interest to me was the start up mode of GPS.

Mine was set to cold start which meant that every time i started my tomtom it did so by deleting all previous data.

This meant i was on a cold start each and every time i used it which was why it took forever to lock sometimes.

I have now changed this setting to "hotstart" and my locks are instant.

There are various other settings that can be played with and tried out but this setting alone got rid of the only flaw i could find in the Omnia2.

Please see post 95 in the following thread for my registry settings which give me a very fast fix with excellent accuracy.
