Help Tuning in my location

Papou

Newbie
G'day all and a newby here who just recently purchased a HTC Desire HD. Been testing the location on my set and it has mty current position always at the same spot aprox 6-7 K's from where i always am??..
Advice on tuning the set would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
 
Take a look here. Does that help?

Also, try the below. It says Nexus One, but it works for the DHD too by all accounts -

Take your SIM out of the Nexus One
Power on the device
Turn WiFi on
Turn GPS on
Open application: GPS Status
Go into its Settings menu
Click on GPS and Sensors
Click Manage A-GPS state
Click Reset
Click Manage A-GPS state again
Click Download
Now put your phone on a stable, straight surface in order to enable the phone to get a lock. This time, you’ll see your phone get the lock back way faster than before.
With that done, now it’s time to put your SIM back in and use the network to secure a quick GPS fix as well.

As I said this has worked for me so far. Let me know if it helps any of you

Does that give you a more accurate reflection of where you are?
