Nothing visual or option wise, as I see it.It does seem to load up quicker & be a bit more responsive to input. Downloads seem to be smoother & quicker as well,but,all of this can vary from each individuals phone & data signal strength.

I do have a huawei ascend and I don't use a battery saving app because it causes the phone to freeze for a second or two. I use android assistance(17 features) for my battery monitoring, but the android assistance(17 features) helps out more than just monitoring the battery. Check out android assitance(17 features). It might help you out.

They all suck to be honest.That one app will waste more battery life trying to kill apps and services that will restart on their own then the apps and services running on their own.
Searched this in the android forum and did not find it...
This is a file mod, not an app, but I think it still belongs here... if not please move it to the proper forum... Thanks...
I did this to my M860 and it worked like a dream!! I edited the gps.conf file from my phone, I did not download it from the provided link that is below...
Here is what is contained in mine... it does not contain as much data as the one provided in the quoted post below, but it was from my phone and all that needed editing was at the top...
Code:
NTP_server=0.north-america.pool.ntp.org
NTP_server=1.north-america.pool.ntp.org
NTP_server=2.north-america.pool.ntp.org
NTP_server=3.north-america.pool.ntp.org
NTP_server=0.us.pool.ntp.org
NTP_server=1.us.pool.ntp.org
NTP_server=2.us.pool.ntp.org
NTP_server=3.us.pool.ntp.org
XTRA_SERVER_1=http://xtra1.gpsonextra.net/xtra.bin

Guys,
I decided to write this because a lot of us here still facing GPS issue on their device. I almost give up on my HTC Desire HD because of the GPS problem. After I find this trick, now I realized that HTC devices have one of the most brilliant GPS hardware. It always get a location lock within 5 - 15 seconds.
This trick not only to speedup the satelite fixing. Some also found that it increase the reception (strong signal even during cloudy, light raining, and inside building's window). I am one of this case .
Here is the tricks. It is tested on HTC desire HD, SGSII, and speculated to work on most Android device (Please note that it is in sequential order):
At the right side of webpage, there is "Active Servers". Go in and look for the setting of your 1)region and 2)country
For example, one's region is Europe then you write down the NTP server for that: 0.europe.pool.ntp.org; 1.europe.pool.ntp.org; 2.europe.pool.ntp.org; 3.europe.pool.ntp.org
Then the servers for your country from the list down there and click the link(Example: Switzerland — ch.pool.ntp.org; 0.ch.pool.ntp.org; 1.ch.pool.ntp.org; 2.ch.pool.ntp.org; 3.ch.pool.ntp.org
The "Italic" words are the information you need to jot down for later use
3. Modify the gps.conf file (Most Crucial Stage)
Download Modified gps.conf file from http://logfile.x10.mx/ to your device / OR As a alternative way, you can copy the codes in grey box (in first post) to a notepad, then change the extension name from .txt to .conf then copy to your phone
Use file manager to copy to this location: /etc/gps.conf and replace the original gps.conf
Open and Edit the gps.conf using rootexplorer or others file managers
Change the COUNTRY and REGION in following lines with the info you got from the website just now. Keep other values unchange unless you know what it is. Example of REGION such as NorthAmerica, Asia, Africa, Europe.

SUPL_NO_SECURE_PORT=3425

# FOR C2K PDE SUPPORT, set the following

C2K_PORT=1234
# TRUE for "User Plane", FALSE for "Control Plane"
DEFAULT_USER_PLANE=TRUE
Make sure the permission of the file is rw-r--r--
4. Reboot
Go setting, turn on your "use GPS satelites" and "Integrate Google Navigation"
Restart the device (normal restart)[/B]
5. Use GPS status and Toolbox
Tool available in market for free, please donate so developers are encouraged for better release in the future[/B]
Open app> tools> manage A-GPS state>Reset
Open app> tools> manage A-GPS state>Download
Optional restart device (not compulsory)
Use GPS status to start fixing satelites
Your satelite fixing speed should VERY FAST now
After get a successul GPS Lock, open your GPS applications and use like normal (e.g. Copilot, Sygic, or TomTom)
Extra Suggestion: Please make sure your GPS is enabled before your device is turnoff or restart. It won't actually use GPS unless you open map-related app or google.com.
CAUTION!!!: DO NOT use fasterfix after this. It will overwrite all the content in gps.conf
Credits: Thanks for JMax and Vault Killer for the gps.conf file WARNING: Please do backup before messing with your device Do it at your own risk, I cannot be held resposible for any damage or dysfunctional of your device
These days, the only apps I really use for flashing are CWM (Bootstrap on the X2) and AppExtractor. ROM Toolbox is truly cool, too, but I don't need it. As far as I'm concerned, those 3, along with rooting apps, are the greatest things since sliced bread.

It is a black market with lots of pirated apps, which we don't recommend using due to possibilities of getting infected with malware, as well as cheating devs out of their hard earned money.
