Dear Friends,

I recently purchased Yari for my Dad. I already own W995i. My Question is about using GPS. I don't think Yari GPS is as Good as W995i has ( Though the accuracy is really good ). i have latest firmware R1BA049 installed.

In w995i; there is "Status Info" Menu which tells about current speed, Lat/Long. and most importantly Satellite position which is absent in Yari.


If i switch off Yari and restart it then i find that GPS receiver starts to get all the data in a cold start manner. It takes a lot of time. I believe all the logs gets deleted when you switch off the phone or change the SIM card.


If there is a satellite connection kind of software included i would know what's going on.


If you are using AGPS then try to disable it. After it acquire signals. Restart it and see how much time it is taking to calculate the position. It behaves like a cold start in every restart. Is the same thing happening with you ?


Do you have Status Info software which can be installed in phone to know about the connection status ?

This application only connects with Bluetooth accessory not with internal GPS.

Are you sure it is Trekbuddy coz I am using latest version and pressing hash does not show me that kind of screen. It shows simple circle or compass. Please reply. Do I need to download some other files for that screen.
