Re: GPS on alltel 6800 - easy way

Hi, I still could not get this to work. Here is my information listed below.
Using a Alltel HTC 6800
Windows Mobile 6.1
Rom version: 3.52.671.9
Radio version: 3.42.50
Location setting is on (start->settings->phone->services->location setting->get settings->on)
GPS setting: (start/settings/system/external gps)
Program Tab: Com 4
Hardware Tab: gps hardare port= none, baudrate = 4800 baud
Access Tab: check 'manage gps automatically'

Google Maps says, Initializing GPS then comes up with an error stating none could be found.

I tried setting the GPS Settings of Google Maps to "Managed by Window" and "Manually" to match what was entered in 'External GPS' and neither worked.

Note:
Then your Gps Com ports are wrong in google maps
(tried two different ways)
you didnt soft reset
(yes, a couple of times and even waited 20 seconds)
you didnt let windows manage gps
(did so in Google Maps and 'External GPS')
or you didnt install to main memory.
(did so here to)

Just don't understand what went wrong. Any help out there?
