Re: Verizon GPS not working anymore

Notes on IP addresses:
0xC3CF657E is 126.101.207.195 which is the default IP address in the gpsOne chipset. You won't get aGPS with this.
0x845FAE42 is 66.174.95.132, which is the Verizon aGPS server which was working until recently.

I was getting locks in 20-30 seconds with 8-11 satellites. Now it take longer to get a first fix (2-8 minutes), with fewer satellites. Sometimes it was taking even longer; once, I let it sit for an hour without getting a lock while Holux GPSViewer was reporting seeing 6 satellites. I disabled aGPS by setting the registry key \HKLM\Software\HTC\SUPL AGPS\EnableAGPS to 0 and now I get a lock with the performance I was getting before I got AGPS working. It's like the AGPS server is not just not working, but is interfering with getting a lock.

Verizon VX6900
Alltel ROM 3.10.671.1
Radio 3.42.30
Stock Alltel ROM reset before customization and installed dcd's Verizon carrier cab.
