Are the GPS settings hard-coded in these ROMs?

How could I possibly misconfigure it? There's nothing to configure, since the settings are hard-coded... even in a non-GPS ROM!

The internal GPS does work, but it is MUCH slower to update and lock than my external, and it's nowhere near as precise. My external GPS is so incredibly accurate, I am amazed... easily within 6ft on a satellite view... it will correctly show what lane I am in on the highway!

That's what I did before I figured out that the internal gps could really be so powerful.

Now try doing that with a program that does not have it's own GPS configuration and relies on the settings made from the "External GPS" icon.
