Check your Start->Settings->System->Device Information

All this does is update the PRI to 2.03_003 - depending on what you had before this will make no difference, or a huge difference.

Also, if you've changed the registry to disable agps this cab doesn't re-enable it.

HKLM/Software/HTC/SUPL AGPS/
EnableAGPS 1
EnableGPSSmartMode 1
GPSMode 2 (or 4)
Prior to installing, I checked my PRI number. It was listed as 2.00_003. Now it says 2.03_003.

Noticed no difference.

My registry is set up exactly as you have (GPSMode on 2).

I'm thinking the "fix" came in around 2.00... I was way back at 1.4x and for me, it was a huge difference

When installing the new sprint beta rom I couldn't even connect to evdo. I'll stay away it and anything that has to do with it.

Agreed, all the people that already have good lock times seem to be either at 2.00 or 2.03

With 2.00_03, I couldn't even get an lock inside the building at work. Now I can. It takes 30 seconds, but that's better than no fix at all.

Holy crap, before this, my GPS was spotty at best, lock times were 2-5 minutes, and that was if I got a lock at all, a good 50% of time it never got a lock. I ran the update, and from my office, where I never got a lock before, I was locked onto 11 sattelites in 15 seconds flat!! Amazing.

I went into my mobile regedit and i dont have the file SUPL AGPS/... My PRI is updated to 2.03_003. I have updated the PPST also. And i cant get a GPS lock, it keeps coming back "Sorry, could not get the GPS position" using Live search. I have the COM port set to 2 in both windows and Live search. Can someone help me please?

Didn't seem to improve my GPS performance at all in the central ohio area, no change in lock time or # of sats. It seems to have affected my EVDO rates though, so I'm going to search for a 2.00_003 cab and revert back.
