I have to say that after all of the "try this to improve GPS" threads that have been floating around, i was skeptical. But, after reading this thread, i figured...whats the worse that could happen?

So, i installed the leaked ROM and let the customizations run. After that, i ran the PPST.exe file. What an immediate difference!

I get over 7 sats consistenly which was rare before the leaked ROM. I also tried to "break" GPS by going into standby while it was running. I woke the phone up, and again was able to get an immediate lock!

Even able to get 5 sats in a friend of mine's basement where i can barely get a cell signal. Previously (past couple of weeks) I never got a lock down there.

So all in all, this is a DEFINITE improvement, my phone does not feel like its got hacked GPS anymore, it feels much more polished.

Oh, and by the way, for anyone curious...i installed a ROM from the kitchen and did NOT run PPST.exe again and still have the same solid performance. It appears (i have no official proof) that the PRI update sticks if you go from the leaked Sprint ROM to a custom kitchen baked ROM.

This one is for real!

Thanks to dew.man for the thread and big thanks to hetaldp for realizing what the missing link for GPS was.
