I get a 1-2 minute initial lock but sometimes after closing a program and then reopening it to use gps again it says it can't find the gps and then i have to soft reboot for it to find it again. If i don't have to soft reset, once its done with that initial 1-2 minute lock it gets it within 10 seconds.

But the biggest plus... MY DROPPED CALLS ARE GONE!. No more signal faded BS, although occasionally the voice completely goes for about a second or two, either the person can't hear me or I can't hear them... it happens less often than the dropped calls did.. so I'll take the audio going out for a couple of seconds and then repeating or having them repeat themselves then dealing with calls being dropped like crazy. Seriously i had it drop the call 3-4 times within 3 minutes a few times.

On a long conversation i noticed the phone getting decently hot... warmer than usual. It was a long convo (hour) though. And also during that call the person i was talking to mentioned that there was a loud "wooing" sound, sorta like on the old analog radios with the dial when you use to turn it and it would go from static to that wooing noise near the station. It was supposedly sorta loud too.

I can't really comment on battery life... I never really paid much attention but it seems similar or slightly worse.
