After running the HTC Vogue Update (RUU_Vogue_BM_WWE_1.17.666.1_1.59.10_BM_NV133_PRL3 1398_Ship.exe) My phone is 100% back to normal.

as has been said many times, imcokeman configured the unlocker/spl to automatically revert completely back to stock an locked after flashing an original/official/oem rom back to the device...such as the one referenced in the post above.

therefore: depending on what carrier you have, find that carriers latest stock official vogue rom, flash it, and wala, youre done.

This has yet to be proved, nobody really knows for sure since it hasn't been enabled yet. Since its the same chipset as the Titan, it should have the same features/functionality when it comes to GPS.

I've seen people say its gonna be a combination of GPS and a-GPS, I've seen people say it'll only be a-GPS, and I've seen people say it doesn't have any GPS.

We won't really know until we can use it.

I had a titan for a few weeks before switching to the touch. While reva and gps were sweet on the titan its overall feel was cheap and plasticky. The Vogue is much faster and feels like a solid device. I'm willing to wait for the sprint update to see what this phone can really do.

only be a-GPS
I keep seeing this reference of "only aGPS" scattered around, and I think there's a serious misunderstanding.

aGPS is short for assisted GPS. That means that it is GPS with additional features to boost functionality. In its full spec -- and as available in Qualcomm's GPSOne implementation -- aGPS is fully capable of using satellites when they're available. This is used in conjunction with information from cell towers to further refine the position. When satellites are not available (such as when indoors), information from cell towers is used on its own.

Now, whether the phone manufacturer or the carrier activate all abilities is a different issue. They apparently can block access to satellites (at least to the user), and require that the phone be near their network to get a position.

hmm wow ok thank you for clearing that up.

i thought a-gps (knowing that it meant assisted gps) referred only to tracking via cell towers. thanks. still hoping...
