You can not run a test back to back to see if quickgps worked, after it's had a locked of course the empheris data is there, it had the lock! Thus any start up to 4 hours after this is a WARM start and occurs quickly.
Without quickgps, and with network aGPS enabled the touch should be able to aquire within 20 seconds. Failure to do that means you have something setup improperly. QuickGPS as I said, DOES NOTHING. Go reverse the rom components as I did, your bin file is NEVER AGAIN CHECKED.
Now running the ppst as they are suggesting is a BIG issue. That does fix things...
