The problem I had with not receiving calls or texts was a problem I had before I flashed the Sprint leaked ROM and ran PPST. I haven't experienced the same issue lately but I am not sure the issue is gone for sure so I put that little warning there just in case others experience it.
I have not tried IGO or TomTom. Where can I download the software and maps and how large is the file. Once I have it downloaded I will install it to my phone and check for you whether or not it needs priming.
Also, when I first flashed a GPS enabled ROM Google Maps took over 10 minutes to lock so maybe a "Primer" was needed then but not anymore.
Edit - I retract my previous statement. I just bought TomTom and the US+Canada Maps and tried to start it and no matter what I tried nothing works. I am going to try to find the new GPS tool from the Diamond ROM and see if that helps and I will report back here.
