mmmmm
ok
just came home, i was traveling
first thing i did , purging gps data
enabled the internet server, so i get faster and better signal
but still , it keeps recalculating like crazy chicken
tha never where to go
the weird thing, when am in my country it work so fine
it also recalculate from time to time
but 2 times i was travveling, both the signal never get good as my home
and recalculate alot
is it the garmin problem
or the gps driver, or hardware issue
cuz i used wisepilot once
and it worked so great
no recalculation
acurate speed reading
and exactly show where am driving??

Is garmin's fault...
The best so far on my Satio is nDrive.

my ex Satio with GarminXT signal locked quite fast---a minute or two (just turn on your wifi as it helps alot) but not as fast as my new HD2 damn that thing pick up just like that less than 10 sec without wifi and with wifi almost instantly! im not sure if it's the hardware or software. With HD2 i put on TomTom

the GPS in my Satio did not work at all after a fw update, but after a hard reset of the system, it's now working perfectly, and it starts up very quickly too.
plz, how can i do a hard reset ?

It's both. Garmin recalculates sometimes (for no reason) with my MTK II bluetooth GPS but does that much more often with the internal GPS. I guess it's partially Garmin's fault that it recalculates. On Ovi 3.03, it recalculates on my BT gps too, even on full 10 GREEN bar reception and driving on highway. I know nDrive and Wisepilot work like a charm.
For me, it's either the software or OS. Man I just feel like dumping this phone away after getting the n87 which is coming out late this year.
