Sprint Touch with no data plan?

Will this work on a Sprint Touch with no data plan? I've been using a free off-line GPS map veiwing program called Terracrosser, but it takes 5-10 minutes to get a lock, and sometimes it loses a lock after a while and never comes back.

Does the AGPS use Sprint data plan to get the information about the satellites to pass on to the phone, or does it use some other means to do so? What are the settings for my phone to improve GPS reception without a data plan?

Also, what settings do I need to input to my phone to get it to stop attempting to connect to Sprint's servers? The pop-up connection screens annoy the hell out of me when I try to use GPS.
