Note, the phone that worked in the UK was the AT&T Tilt (Kaiser - which uses Quick GPS) not the Mogul (Titan, which does not) - which apparently for whatever reason may be hamstrung to only lock in the US

Oops, you're right. I thought I had QuickGPS on my phone, but I don't. Thanks for the effort. :)

Re: Official Titan built-in GPS Thread
 

I've done everything that is posted and my unit still won't fix. I get 12 satalites that show up with differing numbers inside the boxes with the satalite number under them but I have left it for almost an hour and no lock but it does show that it is scrolling. I went to shut it off, The GPS Viewer and it actually lit up the boxes in blue but when I restarted it did not show them filled. What do I need to do to get it to fix? I have Com4 chosen and then just hit the open GPS and it scans for sats.:???:

Re: Official Titan built-in GPS Thread
 

I might of come across a possible fix....

After reading on forums for a week... I successfully flashed my xv6800 with sprints 3.35.04 radio and DCDs 3.0.1 verizon rom. Everything worked great except for the gps. It did work but it took forever to find satilites through google maps, and sometimes not at all... when it did finally lock it would stay locked as long as i used it... but onced I closed it and tried it again later in the day... same routine, usually a hit or miss. Anyway I was messing around looking at battery tweaks through through the registry...I noticed the rom installed had already had battery hacks done to it... I decided to undo them thinking it might be affecting performance and possibly be the reason my slingplayer was kind of choppy. Well after I did.... sling was still choppy lol, but gps worked.... all the time, no matter when in the day.. as long as im outside I can get a lock in 15 sec max. No programs to help like gps viewer or quickgps ever needed. Its been working flawlessly ever since those battery hacks were taken off. My guess gps needs a little juice to find satalites, But then again this all could be just luck.. hell its worth a try, i know a lot of you are still fighting with this. Please reply im curious to see if this helps

Re: Official Titan built-in GPS Thread
 

Yes I put the battery hack in but am not sure how to remove. What is the process besides hard reset and start over.:???:

Re: Official Titan built-in GPS Thread
 

I have to find the hack...just save the values back to 1

Re: Official Titan built-in GPS Thread
 

Here I copied and pasted the original hack :


Navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\AsyncMac1\Parms
Default value type and value are
“DisablePowerManagement”=dword:1
Change to
“DisablePowerManagement”=dword:0

Navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Irsir1\Parms
Default value type and value are
“DisablePowerManagement”=dword:1
Change to
“DisablePowerManagement”=dword:0

Navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\PPTP1\Parms
Default value type and value are
“DisablePowerManagement”=dword:1
Change to
“DisablePowerManagement”=dword:0

Navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\L2TP1\Parms
Default value type and value are
“DisablePowerManagement”=dword:1
Change to
“DisablePowerManagement”=dword:0



To undo it, just change the values back to "1"

Re: Official Titan built-in GPS Thread
 

What program do you use to edit your registery? Which one is the best and easiest? Thanks for the quick reply.

Re: Official Titan built-in GPS Thread
 

i use this

remember when u change your values wait a couple of minutes before u soft reset.. if u do it too soon the values sometimes don't save.

i hope this works... the gps is still running strong

Re: Official Titan built-in GPS Thread
 

from my understanding, using a software program to initiate the soft reset properly flushes the registry and closes stuff out. whenever possible, software initiated resets should be used
