- in Settings/System/External_GPS/Programs, set GPS Program Port to "COM4"

- in Settings/System/External_GPS/Hardware, set GPS Hardware Port to "None", and Baud Rate to 4800.

- in Settings/System/External_GPS/Access, check "Manage GPS automatically"

- have these decimal registry entries.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\SUPL AGPS]
"EnablePDEIPFromNV"=dword:00000001
"ServerIP"="66.174.95.132"
"ServerPort"=dword:8888
"EnableGPSSmartMode"=dword:00000001
"QosPerformance"=dword:00000089
"QoSAccuracy"=dword:00000050
"TimeBetweenFixes"=dword:00000001
"NumberFixes"=dword:99999999
"GPSMode"=dword:00000002
"EnableAGPS"=dword:00000001

Then if you want super-fast and accurate GPS, run the QPST tool as descibed in http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...VerizonAGPSFix. and then re-check the registry entries above.

GPS should work after this. If it doesn't, I'll buy your phone... at a price to be negotiated. After all, it's got a cracked case and the GPS is busted.
The Wiki actually has a cab that makes all those registry changes for you. Pretty Sweet!
