Sorry to bring this thread up... I just wanted to confirm, that after changing the region in the registry, I also get an amazing fast fix. HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\QuickGPS, region "--" just change the -- to your country code...like US, DE, GB, or whereever you are!

I made a little MortScript and added it to startup:

Code:
While (1)
Sleep (60000)
If NOT regKeyEqualsString ("HKLM", "Software\HTC\QuickGPS\", "region", "SE")
RegWriteString ("HKLM", "Software\HTC\QuickGPS\", "region", "SE")
EndIf
EndWhile

This works and keeps the "SE"-setting (for Sweden), but having the script running constantly isn't exactly optimal as it uses processing power and thus adding to battery-drain. Anyone have any ideas on a different way of making the script, which is more effective/power-saving? Or is there an even better way to make the registry key stick?
Why does this script should keep on running? The key gets set to "--" only after reboot so it should be OK to run it once after reboot. I'll try this script in the startup-folder:
Code:
RegWriteString ("HKLM", "Software\HTC\QuickGPS\", "region", "DE")
Every time I boot my phone the setting will be made.
