Re: GPS on MetroPCS - HTC 6800

I have an Alltel HTC 6800 that's been flashed over to MetroPCS (the legal way) and I can't seem to get my GPS working. It came loaded with WM6.1, ROM version 3.52.671.9, and Radio 3.42.50. So far i've got my internet working by following a few guides that are here on the forum, and i've done the same for GPS but to no avail. From what I understand, my version from Alltel comes with GPS already active so there are no settings that I need to change to unlock the GPS function. I have my location settings set to "On", and have the GPS Program Port set to COM 4, Hardware port set to "(none)" Baud rate 4800, and Manage GPS Automatically is checked. I followed this guide for super-fast lockon http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=36377 and i've went over it 3 times and set the gpsOne settings according to the ones that Fred_dj provided which is in the second post of that thread. I've double-checked in QPST to make sure the settings stuck after a soft reset and everything is still there, i've also done the registry setting changes, but all I can manage to get is "Seeking GPS satellites (0)" in Google Maps and it can't seem to lock on. Settings in Googe Maps and set correctly, i've tried standing outside to see if that works, but it doesn't. I downloaded GPSViewer and it seems to find satellites, they come up but just disappear, it's found up to 8 or 9 at one point but they just disappear and never fully lock. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions please let me know, I would really appreciate it. Thanks

I do not know man but i did not try those hacks and my mogul's GPS is working without problems, did you tried to used without the tweaks?.
P.S. I get lock on within 4-8 seconds.
