I did the above and It was slower than what the Sprint version comes with Stock... I reverted if you couldnt tell from me asking for the Stock sprint settings...

My lock is anywhere from around 5-30 secs from sprint unless indoors then its 30sec to a min probably... Wouldnt recommend for the Sprint Diamonds.

I applied all the settings in the registry except used the Sprint IP and port on my Sprint Diamond. It locks quickly and works great.

I can't get this to work on my Sprint Diamond.
I followed the steps and successfully wrote the ip info to the phone (had to use a different method to get the SPC)
But the google maps gps still doesnt work

Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks.

Updated the Hex ESN calculator to a downloadable program.

hey, i've been kinda annoying lately, but i am quite frustrated with trying to get this thing to work. i am on juicy 2.5 rom. i even hard reset it recently. i applied the settings exactly as posted here. i go into google maps, and i see the map fine, but when i press use gps, i keep getting seaking satelites(0)... message. i have rebooted the diamond about 100 times over the last few days trying to get this to work, but no luck. i seem to be able to download quick gps stuff fine. with blackbery curve it was a breeze, so i don't understand why diamond is so crippled in this respect.

any help would be greatly appriciated, thanks

Are you on sprint or telus. (fill out your user info)
Did your GPS work at any point in the past?
Did you even test it before trying these settings?
Can you screenshot (and please for the love of my patience crop the picture) what you see in the qpst gpsOne screen?
Blackberries and HTC phone are not even remotely similar, don't even start.
Are you outside in clear view of the sky?
