A method and apparatus is provided for reducing network synchronization time in a dual-mode access terminal. The dual-mode access terminal supports a first and a second network. The method includes determining if CDMA system time is available within the dual-mode access terminal. In response to determining that CDMA system time is available, the method includes forgoing acquiring the CDMA system time through a pilot acquisition procedure, reading the CDMA system time from a memory, and programming the CDMA system time into a system time unit. In response to determining that CDMA system time is not available, the method includes acquiring the CDMA system time through the pilot acquisition procedure and programming the CDMA system time into the system time unit.
A method for reducing network synchronization time in a dual-mode access terminal, wherein the dual-mode access terminal supports a first and a second network, the method comprising:
A dual-mode access terminal with reduced network synchronization time, wherein the dual-mode access terminal supports a first and a second network, comprising:
