But you are not using mighty rom?
Mighty mike, can you confirm that the bored patch works ok with your reborn rom?

I started with MightyROM5, then reflashed to R3BORN. I found MightyROM5 was brutally slow with occasional freezes. Never got GPS to work in MightyROM5 but other problems prevented me from working it out.

So, I'm on R3BORN with bored VZW v2.0 fix and luvin' it.

Just wish I could get Javascript to run on Opera.

Cool, that is exactly where I want to be.
The only problem is that there is no ppst.exe in my windows directory, so I could never complete the install successfully. I've looked several times, using total commander, file explorer, etc. I'll try again with Launchppst.exe which I got from Scrosler's ROm, because bored seemed to think that would work.

Launch the bored cab file (I did it from a storage card). Do a soft reset, then look in the /windows directory. Make sure you allow viewing hidden files. It will be copied into there. Really.

Then run it. It'll do a soft reset. Don't forget the *228 option 1 step.

YOU F**CKERS ROCK!

I love you.
I have been struggling for days with this.
I did not realize that the cab file copied the ppst file into the windows directory. i had looked for it many times....

I am getting sattelites on htc tool but not yet on google maps. BTW, I have the 4reborn rom and I still had to unlock via bored's cab in case anyone wonders--mighty mike posted that his rom unlocked it, but it did not for me.


Thanks tons.

It does unlock it. I've never ever had an issue on any Mighty Rom. What I've found out through talking to others is that on some Verizon Touch pro's, they are extremely finicky getting that first lock. But once you get it it usually is fine after that. In the link in my signature there is a ton of options for you to try. If you get sat lock in HTC GPS tool it should be fine in Google. Check the google settings. They are listed in my help post. Also did you properly update Quick GPS ?

By any chance did you hard reset after flashing the ROM ?

I did a hard reset, but for some reason it didn't enable the GPS. By the way I love your rom, just wanted to give a head up that I did seemingly need bored's cab to make it work. Maybe mine was the finicky one that wasn't taking. Anyways, love the ROM Mike, thanks to everyone for the help, especially Mr Whippy.
