Do any of the ROMs fix any location issues?

check your setting on the clock

3. GPS: I've noticed quite a few people on here post that their GPS is screwy. I've really only noticed it with Google Maps, but there are times where it places me 3 states over from where I am. Are there any improvements there?

again check your setting mine updates fine

Could this be because I've got all three location settings checked (Use Wireless Networks, Location Setting, Enable GPS Settings) and always have GPS on?

5. Web Browser/Data Speeds: The reason I asked the above question is because I've seen a few people state that their web browsing/data transfer speeds have increased while on the EVDO signal. If this is possible, I'm thinking there may be an improvement in the phone signal as well. Regardless, are the data speeds and web browsing, in fact, speedier with custom ROMS? If so, how is that possible (I'm just more curious than anything).

that all deals with the signal your getting from the towers nothing with roms

I've seen some people state that they've seen faster browser speeds. Has the browser been optimized? I've seen something about ad-less browsing, but don't know what that is or does.

i have all three on mine checked too and gps is always on ....alot of the apk have been optimized the browser was optimized but the patch that fixes flash un-optimizes it. the ad less browsing is a customized HOSTS file that blocks domains from known bad or ad sites. directs them to localhost so that they don't show
