Re: 6/8/09 FIRMWARE UPDATE: Verizon GPS Unlocked

I never downloaded Bored's original fix because everyone said it was unnecessary if you had Mighty ROM (4R3BORN) on your device -- which I do and it works great. I don't know if those people are right or not, but I will say that nothing I did, including changing registry entries, downloading QuickGPS Fix and HTC GPS Tool, monkeying with Advanced Config and other utilities, did a thing to get this thing to actually start seeing and locking on satellites. Then I downloaded the simple cab file that Bored posted on 6/6/9, ran it, and went outside. I got seven satellites in a few seconds and GoogleMaps integrated perfectly. Yeah baby.

I wanted to post this because I haven't seen an answer to the most important question I had, which was "can I install this new fix over Mighty ROM 4R3BORN or is that going to screw everything up?" The answer is nothing appears to be screwed up - the .cab just installs and makes the GPS work.
you were told wrong... if you had a verizon device you needed to install my fix before the newest file became available... now you just have to do exactly what you done which was install the new file


installing this does not screw up rom this is purely for the radio and gps of the device
