Treo pro 850T - GPS problem

Question

I have palm treo pro, subscriber of Starhub (Singapore), and am using it for more than 6 months already. When I started using, the GPS was working fine. It took few days to get fixed. Then, I used Nevfone navigator. After that, I get familiar with Singapore roads and don't use GPS for a few months. One fine day, I tested GPS again and satellites don't get fixed. It's not really dead, saw one or 2 sats. but it never get fixed even leave it out in the clear sky for quite substantial period of time. Then, I did hard reset, started from beginning. No use! So, I called Palm and finally got refurbished replacement. Surprisingly, the GPS on replacement doesn't work, too! I tested all on factory setting with google map. No third party application, no tweak, nothing at all. several hard resets. Now, I called again to Palm but I faced routine check this and check that which I've done everything. I understand that 2 phones (units) will happen same problem but I am now really experiencing.
Have you encounter such problem before? Please share some tips that it would turn my phone to work GPS like magic... thanks!

Somewhat similar, but since we switched to this pro, the set up seemed much better. Like, the htc program to turn off programs from the start page so the memory doesn't t get bogged down.  This is a real nice phone, but this exchange sync problem is a real pain. When it works ok, the battery lasts all day even with bluetooth,talking , using direct push as messages are received, etc. But,once sync goes haywire, no good.  I would like to know if it is a parameter at the server that the phone, sprint system, doesn't like to see. Or, something in win mobile.  Someone from Palm did say something about no end point being set to only allow the calendar to check back the two weeks as is set in the parameter.  He said something like to have the data from the server removed, saved somewhere, try to re sync, then add the data back to the server.  I just don't understand that process, and we only sync over the air, and don' t want to lose any calendar data.  The old treo 800 is gone, but I would really like to keep this pro, so thanks for any help understanding my plight.
