I am not sure if I am supposed to change the PDE IP and PDE Port values in QPST/gpsone, and the values given in Post#2 for MetroPCS provide Server Ip and Server Port (which are in the registry). I changed them nevertheless and have all the settings done, to no avail. emartinez has a post here describing how he did it without changing any alltel settings, but I need more details. Anybody have it successfully running GPS on metroPCs on Mogul//Vogue? Please post the following if it works for you:
1. QPST - did you uncheck all boxes, or check them completely, or partially?
2. QPST - what settings are you using for PDE port, PDE IP, PDE transport and Position calculation.
3. Registry - what settings are you using (Alltel or Metro) based on the post #2 here? What is your server IP, GPS mode, and server port under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\SUPL AGPS ?
4. Location Setting under "Phone\menu\options...\Services\Location Setting" set to ON?
5. GPS settings under "start/settings/system/external gps" Program Tab: Com 4
Hardware Tab: gps hardare port= none, baudrate = 4800 baud
Access Tab: check 'manage gps automatically'. Did you leave these ON?
Thanks for the help.

ur makeing this harder then it is.
connect phone to pc, open qpst, goto gpsone tab. CLICK READ FROM PHONE. uncheck all the boxes,THEN RECHECK ALL THE BOXES, enter the pde ip, pde port, and other info into the gpsone, from post 2. WRITE TO PHONE. then copy the metro pcs cab file to ur phone from post 2, install, reboot. DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
when i first discoved this i only had the alltel info, thanks to the ppcgeeks community i have been compiling the pdew server info from many carriers. alltel pde servers are also great to fall back on if ur pde server fails but mertro pcs works on the control plane so u need to use metro pcs servers. like a verizon person can use alltel because they are both on user plane (nothing to do with the merger just an example), metro pcs is on control plane, so use the mertro pcs serverds
