I don't know the answer to your question, but GPS is actually working much better for me now that I have 6.1. I've seen similar comments (positive comments) from others.

I was having the same problem, until I did a soft reset and now the GPS is amazingly quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest phil823 Posted September 6, 2008 Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 soft reset is the same, as pressing the power button, or taking out the battery. so what he said was to turn off the phone and turn it back on. i get the bars at the top, but i have issues with garmin XT......it doesnt find a satalite, although google maps finds one.... so idk...ive gotten garmin to find and work like 2 times out of the many ive tried.
