I know I did the above QPST fix on my Vogue. I wonder if the drivers would work?

It may help once the chip is unlocked but that is for A-GPS. I'm remember how happy I was the day that came out. Went from 30 second locks to 4.

QPST. Alright. I made it through step 7 and then it did not recognize the phone and asked for a "base model" instead. I aborted...

How about trying to install one of the other four radios? That was the necessary step with unlocking the XV6900 for VZW.

Interesting note - maybe not.

Before I restored my spbbackup file, I tried the gpsviewer. Gpsviewer FOUND the gps on COM4: and appeared to communicate with it. While the data that came back may or may not have been good, after I restored and reset, GPSviewer no longer FINDs the COM4 port.


Is this a dll i can find in the windows folder - i have been looking!? or is the missing port because of 'added' registry entries?
Or does it even matter ...

On another note...

I could NOT get the RAPHIMG rename to work from an SD card. I wonder if the name for the verizon is different than the sprint TP.

Thought this was interesting... comment after installing Nexvision's ROM.

I've ran them all already



As far as the dll thing goes. I ran a fully sprint branded rom and it didn't work.

Hmmmm. I did find the updated QPST, and updated the aGPS values. So at least when the GPS is unlocked, I will lock quickly.

Is there a way to wipe the entire ROM image from the phone? It appears that the unlocker does not allow full access to the ROM memory (192 MB) Then reload a base ROM and start very clean? Just troubleshooting... let me know when I start buggin you.

The Verizon config stays thru flashes. It's obviously wrote to a different part than what the ROM access's. Like I said I flashed Sprint's ROM and my phone worked fine.

The problem is definitely unique to the XV6850.

How exactly does VZNavigator communicate with the on-board GPS? It's not all triangulation.
