*Tomtom 7 GPS had 2 bars.. and was searching for about 45 seconds before picking up any satelite and getting a lock.. Keep in mind.. GPS reception inside my home is extremely bad regardless of Radio version .30, .40 or .50.. I normally get lock within 5 seconds on the freeway, but thats a whole different scenario..

I've just flashed the VZW Radio 3.37.. still with PRI 2.03_002.. PPCkitchen build 20273..

Tomtom GPS has 4 satelite on a cold start.. locks in about 5 seconds and now has 8 bars when locked..
this is a significant change for the better..

both test were made sitting here on my couch..

so i guess my conclusion is.. the new VZW Radio works best with this PRI 2.03_002..

Finally us VZW users get a break....

DCD Ripped 3.37.75 Radio Found here:

good luck..

VZW users, please try this and post your results..
How did you upgrade the PRI to 2.03_002? Did you go through all the hoops with the official upgrade, or has the PRI been funneled off on its own now too? I am running 1.35_002.

Thanks,
Steve
