Don't really use it but test it out of curiosity. In NYC, 17th floor, brick building would place me a couple football fields away when on stock/rooted/debloated EP4D. Now using stock/rooted/debloated FP1 it shows me maybe 25-30 yards from my building.

I can't speak too much about gps at home or commute because VZW is going gangbusters setting up 4G along the Jersey shore (does it matter? don't know). Same obviously holds true with the radios since it's a moving target, but between the phone working faster and better wireless service, the phone just keeps getting better.
