No data cab can be handy.
I'm adding it to my faq right now.

It will still work,
It just takes longer to work.

aGPS uses the cell towers to help the satellites get a lock
on your position quicker by using the data connection.
I'll post a link to my faq here in a minute after I add how to disable the aGPS and the no data cab.
hold on like a minute and you'll get that.

*There's cab installers for the items in my faq*




Edit:
Shaggy you beat me to it.
but there's a cab installer for the registry locations at my faq.

I think this week I'm going to bring it over to ppcgeeks as a general faq and just have it at both locations so I don't keep sending people to xda. plus their servers constantly fail. haha.
