OK guys I have a little update,
I have got gps working again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope I didn't just jinx myself. So after a bunch of mucking around I am able to get locks in under 10 seconds. How did I do this well I can't be totally sure but I'll tell you exactly what I did today:

1. I changed the gpsmode to 4
2. I tried loading up quickgps again (with the hacked registry and all) and got it to connect and work. I'm not sure if this actually did anything because my gps didnt work right after I did this.
3. I set gpstoday settings to use data when needed, and use cell tower approximations, keep device awake when in persistent mode, and i set the minimum fix quality all the way to the left.

4. Now I think what I did next actually did the trick: I went into advanced config and disabled the "use agps" and then reset. I tried to use gps after bootup and nothing locked (I think it was still seeing sats). So then I enabled the agps in advanced config and then reset, I turned on gpstoday, went to gpsviewer and bam!!!!! gps locked 4 sats after about 2 minutes. Now this is in the window of my apartment on a very rainy day in halifax, and I think it would be better outside. I have since soft reseted my phone and it now will lock in under 10 secs at the window!!!!! Not only that but deeper inside my apartment (where I usually didn't get any gps locks before) I can actually lock onto 2 sats (at least something) from a soft reset within 10 secs. AMAZING!!!!

Pretty stolked right now I hope this lasts haha. Now is this all a fluke? I'm not sure but if you are on bell or any other carrier (with OMJs newst rom) and your gps is having trouble, try doing those exact steps. Hopefully it will work for you too!!!

BTW, thanks for putting up with all my rants about gps!! I am gonna post this in OMJs thread too, hope thats ok with the moderators. I just wanna get this info out in case it helps somebody!

cheers,
Dan
