What are you using for gps? ovi maps? garmin? google maps?

i suggest installing google maps to see if your gps is working alright.

then check in phone settings to ensure that gps positioning method is enabled for 'built-in gps' and 'assisted gps', thereafter check positioning server is set to 'supl.nokia.com'.

normal lock time is around 5-30seconds with E71 GPS with A-GPS on; anything more than that i'd attribute it to a faulty built-in gps unit.

let me know if it works.

Have you updated your GPS recently? Tomtom had troubles with software on some of their units and did send out a fix when updated.

WAITING FOR FIX...... message coming when GPS is started
Your best bet is to go out into an open area - free of trees, tall buildings, etc. A field is ideal. Switch the GPS on and wait. Most GPS units will cold start in 3 minutes or less. If the GPS has moved 100s of miles since it last had a fix, it may take a little while - but should not need more than 5 minutes.

Can't get any directions, just keeps on saying "waiting for valid GPS signal" been like this all day. Thanks. Ron
charge it up good for a few hours, preferably the usb cord to your computer, then power it on and take it outside in full view of the open sky and let it aquire the satellites (up to 30 minutes)

if that fails, let me know and we can try a reset and update.

Waiting for a valid gps signal
A couple solutions:

1) Make sure the TomTom can "see" the sky well... the GPS satellite waves are rather weak and easily blocked by trees, and anything not a window.

2) Hook up your TomTom to the computer (see details at www.tomtom.com or in the manual)

2b) Do a "sync" and download all updates. One of the updates is a small file that tells the TomTom where the satellites are located this week, and helps it sync up much faster. The longer time between uses, the longer it takes TomTom to find the satellites, and that can takes up to 2-5 minutes sometimes.

That can be frustrating with a car full of people waiting to get going and the driver doesn't want to drive without making sure the TomTom works and is giving valid directions.

My tomtom cant find any satellites and keeps saying waiting on valid gps signal......
check the port is set to 8
not sure if your model has GPS search wher it finds the port and vbaude automativcally, if it does use it and see if that fixes it if not
your battery is too low
you have a damaged SIIRF chip and that is expensive to repair
