I can't for the life of me get a GPS fix consistantly. I've tried FasterFix and GPS Status on the market and have added the default,supl tag to my APN type. I've also used a couple of HD2 Patches supplied by Angel Death. Even then I only got an intermittent low strength connection with 5 sats in the middle of my back garden which took 6 minutes to get.
The HD2 thread I used is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=953630
I have also looked through this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-863211.html
Which doesnt help as I've had my GPS running now looking for detection for over an hour and a half on the windowsill.
Anymore suggestions?

What amount of time are we talking? Mine takes probably 10 seconds or so, which is a really long time for something loading (even though it may not sound like it when typing here).
I would say almost a minute

about 6 - 10 sec is avrg... 1 min ?? i would check my data info to make sure ur phones on the up and up
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
would it be caused by slow network? I usually get that problem when I'm in such GPRS or jamed 3G network
I'm not really sure because I don't have a data plan on my HTC G2. I just use wifi the whole time.
And it really takes about a minute to load.
I don't think itss because its the slow connection, it has to be something else.
Any suggestions on what I should do?

You could always...
...move somewhere else?
Try turning off and back on your device, that worked for me with this issue.
Do you go directly to navigation or through the car app? Not sure if this makes a difference?
I'm sure it will be fixed with a software update and some Modders have already developed a fix I think but I'm waiting for an official fix

do you have line of sight? how many sats are seen when you use something like gps status?
i have to say my agps is a bit flakey even when clearing agps and updating in gps test app.
The actual normal GPS though is rock solid. 16 in view 11 used.

Ok so this has annoyed me for ages now and I can't figure out whats the problem, even after 10-12 hours of searching. Basically if I don't have a SIM Card in my phone, videos (Youtube & recorded ones) play perfectly well, no problems. When there's a SIM Card in it when I play a video (both of the above) O get a white flash for a second and the video lags but the audio comes through fine. Any suggestions?
INFO:
HTC Desire HD (Inspire 4G in the USA)
2.3.5 stock OTA update
Sense 3.0
Crap load of apps (NOT THE PROBLEM)
No Root
S-On
I do know a little about Android (might be Root & S-Off soon) but not too much. Help would be appriciated a lot!

Did you try the previous suggestion? When did you first notice the problem?
Have you tried a different sim card? Same sim card in a different phone?
Wifi vs data connection?

A bit more of a drastic fix would be to switch from stock to a custom rom like IceColdSandwich i moved from stock to this and the speed differentness in the rom is huge! tho you do lose sence

Currently I'm using the Android Revolution HD 7.0.4 and I don't have any lag. It runs smooth
try another sim and see if the problem persist. It happened to me once, i never noticed till i switch on simlock.
The was some minor scratches on the sim which cause difficulties for the phone to read it. Indirectly, the phone allocates certain amount of resource to load/read the sim repeatedly which MAY(or may not) explain your lags.
Just sharing my personal experiences, this may or may not be the case for you. Do try other suggestions as well. Btw, im using MOBO player as my video player.
The main thing I'm worried about is Youtube, cause I watch a ton of videos before I sleep (oh the joys of insomnia!) So if that goes im kinfa screwed. The 3rd party video player solved the lag for the locally stored videos (ones on the SD Card) btw

Slightly different question (still related to thread); when I flash gapps with CM7 (7.1.0) I need to install zip from SD card right?

Gapps is supposed to be flashed through recovery. If that's what you meant by from sd card, yeah.

stock is very slow and eventually lagged with me too ... one thing i did at the time was used timelines app whenever the phone would slow down to see what was using up the cpu.... turned out the sense app " stocks" was going crazy and loading up by itself and taking up most of my cpu when i was on other apps even though i had never used it before. terminating it and eventually uninstalling the app solved it for me at the time ( had to get root and titanium backup for that. ) hope this helps.. ..

if you prefer ginger, try blackice. It's based on cm as well, if u wanna try ics, definitely IceColdSandwich.

I've heard the camera doesn't work on ICS properly.
CM7 seems to do the job but battery life isn't all that good (ARHD maybe?)
camera works without an issue. only stock videocam doesn't work. which you can use aftermarket app such as illusion videocam.
well... blackice gave me the best battery among the roms I've played around with... but if you like sense, arhd is the best gingerbread sense rom.

Try CM7 RC3 with LordModUE 8.9b7 kernel (there's a thread in the Development section). Set your CPU settings under CM settings to 122-1152 MHz with smartassv2 governor. With that kernel and those settings I got a little more than 4 hours of continuous screen on time with auto brightness the whole time. That's awesome for this phone.

this app is simply awful, a real let down considering the skill of devs who post their work here, this app seems to have been coded by a 2 year old

I am running Andromadus Mimicry version 1.40. When I turn mobile data on, it takes an age to even show up in the notification bar. The only way to make it connect is to reboot the phone, and it comes right on. When it actually does connect, the speeds in the browser are really slow as well. Only when it shows the 'H' icon in the notification bar (instead on the 3G icon) websites load. I have flashed the radio mentioned here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1701467 and still no change. Any suggestions, as this is really frustrating.
Thanks, masterleron.

Use Airplane mode (or flight mode) instead of rebooting the device
Have you tried wifixmanager (market) ?
Hmm, I flashed Gen.Y VisionX B5, and everything is fine again.
