10.3 Downloading Location Data via QuickGPS
Before using the phone for GPS navigation, open QuickGPS to download
ephemeris data (current satellite position and timing information). QuickGPS
significantly speeds up the time for determining your GPS position. QuickGPS
downloads ephemeris data from web servers, instead of from satellites, using your
phone's Internet connection via Wi-Fi, ActiveSync or GPRS/G.
To open QuickGPS
Tap Start > QuickGPS.
To download GPS data
Tap Download on the QuickGPS screen.
On the screen, initially, you will see the Valid time of
the downloaded data. As time passes, the remaining
days and hours of validity will be shown.
To speed up GPS positioning, download the latest
ephemeris data when the validity of the data expires.
