Re: Sprint Official and DCD on Alltel - Success Story

I upgraded from the stock ROM, my 6800 had been relocked when I went back to stock a while ago. I tried to install the sprint RUU first but it would give a "VENDER ID ERROR". It worked fine after going to the 2.40 bootloader then running the sprint RUU.

In regards to the GPS issue, the cooked ROM has GPS defaulted to aGPS assistance in the registry. I had much better lock times after enabling full standalone mode. In aGPS, it would find satellites, get a fix, then reset a bunch of times before finally getting a solid fix. After making the reg change, it gets a fix in less than 30 seconds, usually shorter.

I'm not sure what thread I found this in to give proper credit, but here it is:
______________________
to enable full standalone operation with no server assistance that will work in flight mode or no service flawlessly (with a lock just as quick as when in agps mode,YMMV) (technically this will work over seas also)

go to HKLM > SOFTWARE > HTC > SUPL AGPS >

change EnableAGPS to 0
change EnableGPSSmartMode to 0
change GPSMode to 1

and soft reset, that will set the mogul to operate in full standalone mode only,
