What I've found out lately is this:
I too used Googlemaps to "spool up" the GPS to the tune of 10 seconds to NOt At All.
BAF GPS toggle has solve this & works VERY nicely.....AS LONG AS you aren't running Titanium.....BAF won't run there.
So...I just stumbled into BlazingWolf's MS3 (SPB Mobile Shell) which, in addition to being zippy and solid, has BAF on the front page. I've been educated on how to pop in & out of MS (I'm a proud newbie of that fabulous interface) where I turn GPS on...it seems to lock in seconds....then the rest of my GPS Apps lock instantly.
I turn it off when I m done to preserve battery life.
