Replacement Verizon phone and can't get GPS working after DCD 4.12 Flash!

BetaMan · #1 (**permalink**) 07-03-2009, 04:25 PM

This is a Verizon phone. I just got the replacement from Assuron (or however you spell it). I flashed the bootloader to 2.47, installed radio 3.42.50 and DCD's 4.1.2 ROM (same setup as I had on my OTHER phone. IT worked perfectly!)

Anyway, THIS phone (which is BRAND FRIGG?IN' NEW) won't ever find satelites! NO matter HOW long I wait!

I have searched for hours for a solution! Now I'm hoping that someone knows and can end my frustration.

Thanks for ANY help!

I bet you have pri version 2.03xxx. This MR1/MR2 pri blocks gps. DO the below link. Then unlock and reflash custom. You can not jump from MR1/MR2 to custom without going to old pregps rom first to remove block.

After doing the above suggestions, My phone STILL shows PRI version 2.03_002 AND I can't get QPST to work correctly on my phone. I NEVER shows 2 USB ports so I can set them up.

I am an IT Engineer and not new to computers at all OR these phones. However, this has me baffled!

Please state the steps you did to flash backwards then go custom.

Well, after playing with the phone settings for a few minutes, the GPS is FINALLY working!
