I always had to prime it with something (usually GPS Today) or I would get the "6pm time change" issue if I exited without a lock. Now it locks in under 20 seconds ervery time.

For the first time in months, I think I am sticking with an OEM ROM. I am truly amazed and it was worth the wait for Bell o do it right. I;m very impressed.
one thing I noticed is that now it locks on satellites with SNR BELOW 30
(like 25 even 20)...
so this is a result of AGPS properly working via that PDE IP?


and overall, YES GPS is faster now, and
NO STANDBY ISSUE!

HURRAY!
