Re: Programming via USB

Hi everyone, hi Drewcam888

Had a little car accident and so I am just able to get back to this now. In trying to follow Drewcam's advice as shown below.

"Your gps is entirely locked out. You need to roll back to a pregps rom to erase Verizon lock from MR1 and then go back to custom again. Steps are below and there is no way around it. Then just install agps cab and qpst settings or change
registry for standalone."


I did the following so far:
1. Used "Titon relocker" to roll back the bootloader and relock the phone.
2. Used RUU to go back to early vsw radio. 2.09.605.8 (Radio 1.30.00).
3. After this the phone would give the message "unable to authenticate the phone" when I tried to place a call. Had to call vsw and get a new "a code". They questioned me on what happened but I just played dumb, which was not to hard for me, lol. I should have said I'm just trying to get my %^%#* GPS working!!
4. relocked the phone using OLIPRO 2.4 via USB.
5. Installed radio 3.42.50 alltel.
6. Installed a wm 6.5 rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=513166

My locaton setting is right, in the GPS Settings program, GPS port is 4, hardware is none, and baudrate is 4800, (so all those settings are right). The result of all this the GPS still don't work, shouldn't it be working at this point or did I
blow it already?? Also, my PRI is still 2.03_002 just like before when drewcam said my gps was locked out.

Going beyond those 6 steps I'm on more shacky ground as to know what I'm doing. From Drew's advice above I have these questions.

1. What is an "agps cab". Is that the rom from step 6 above?
2. I've never found any clear instructions for qpst settings, is that just for A-GPS?? Do I want GPS to just run Megellon?? Will my regular GPS work without messing with qpst setting??
3. "Change registry for standalone"?? I know how to change the reg. but what changes do I make?? Could that be all I have to do at this point to make GPS work??

Thanks for all the help so far...
