While inside it was using the Data connection (I think) and the actual location that it found wasn't that close (like 2 - 3 blocks away). I went outside and after 2-3 minutes google maps picked up 4 - 5 sattelites and pin pointed my location.
I'm glad to report I'm getting more favourable results in Google Maps since I made my earlier noted changes. I'm now getting 9 active satellites and my location is within 10m. When I tried this before from the same location, my house, I was within 2900m...3 damn kilometres!

So you were finally able to edit the QPST Settings. If so con you post the the updated version. I'm getting GPS locks, however its taking 3-5min, plus I'm only getting 4-7Sats

My first post did say that although I got an error during writing the gpsOne values back to the phone in QPST, when I re-read them back they had changed. Therefore despite the error I posted, the update seemed to take.

There seems to be a new post on the main TP2 Forum "How To: Configure GPS" by tobeychris which is essentually a copy of his original HTC Diamond thread about the same issue. I've just replied to that to say that the link to QPST in that thread is to an older version (2.7 build 301) that does not seem to recognize the TP2, or at least not mine! I posted a link to a newer version I uploaded here.

I found out that the gps must be configure this way in apps to make it work :

Port : com4
Baud rate : 38400

At least, it worked for me...
