HKLM/Software/HTC/SUPLAGPS/
GPSMode --> Change to 4 (orginal value 2)

I just remember seeing it posted everywhere in the Titan forums.

I put the phone back out on the patio to see how long it takes to lock. This is the start time. I'll report back when it actually does.

I'll try the regedit once the phone is locked to regular GPS.

I just went outside. The GPS Viewer was on the same 4 sats that it was 40 min ago, i soft reset the device and within 90 secs I had a GPS lock. How sweet lifes simple pleasures are. No we will just have to see if it can get a lock in the morning when I leave for work and have sprint nav drive me there.

What about tethering???

Is anyone else having problems with tethering their touch??? There are 2 "network connections?" - Data network and data networks, neither which work...

Any help? THX

Yup! But why won't it work on our Vogues and Titans?
I wanted it before but now that GPS is active on our devices..

I just go into the Comm Manager and select Internet Sharing through USB, then connect the USB cable and it worked for me.

The speeds I posted earlier were while I was at work, my speeds here at home aren't anywhere near that high.

i think this is very important to understand and needs to be reiterated.

when you start google/live/gps viewer/etc you are initiating a cold start, meaning the gps unit was previously off. This will take avg 1-3 min to get a lock. Now you use your gps and then close google/live/viewer/etc down to conserve your battery. You are cutting the gps "data stream" from the satellites. There will be no gps data present on the phone at all left. Thus, next time you start google/live/viewer, you will be doing ANOTHER cold start meaning and 1-3 avg min lock.

This is how gps on our phones works. This is not a dedicated gps unit that you leave constantly on that can immediately be accessed or a bluetooth receiver you always leave plugged in and on. The gps radio is constantly being turned on and off, meaning waits for locks every time.

So unless you constantly leave google or the viewer open, killing your battery, an instant lock cannot be expected

That is exactly right, my only exception is whe nusing Google Maps, it'll show a position within about 10 seconds, even though its not locked on any sats. I believe this is the aGPS getting my location from the cell towers, not the sats. This initial position is usually close to my location, but not exact. Once the (0) start showing numbers, then I know I'm actually using the true GPS and have stas locked.

Man I thought I was done with ROM flashing for awhile until sprint official ROM but here I goes again...

Thanks JD as always.
