Gonna try out the new radio and see what happens with those roms. GPS has always been buggy. get quick locks usually at home, and only at home lol. anytime i really need it i wait forever and give up. a couple times its locked within 5 minutes outside of home. home is a bad place to test cuase of hot starts which get quick locks after first time get lock i think.
Definitely flash to the new Sprint ROM and then to OMJ's clean ROM. You'll notice a WORLD of difference on the gps. Mine was just like yours before and now I get locks anywhere within 60 seconds... even when actively driving. I can't believe what an improvement it is!
