Has anyone in Alltel gotten GPS working well (lock within a minute)?
Just curious. I'd largely given up on this 3 months ago. I do know it works MUCH better in Orlando than Sarasota, FL (where I live). I just want to make sure I haven't missed any magic bullets our there for Alltel.

I am getting a good lock within 30 seconds. I am using the newest alltel Radio that is no longer available. HTC pulled it and DCD's Rom 3.2.6. I live in TEXAS and have clear blue skies most of the time.


ROM 3.2.6 DCD's
Radio Alltel 3.37.20

After flashing i have noticed the first lock takes awhile. I use google maps. You may need to go through the google maps retry process(maybe a couple times). After i get my first lock the next ones i grab within 30 to 45 seconds.
