This app does not bring up its own Internet connection. Bring up a connection first and then run the update.

I just downloaded the QuickGPS app and also the files form RapidShare and got everything to work on my Mogul within two minutes. In my office (a steel building) I am seeing 5 satellites and using 3 at the moment. Gmaps found the satellites and locked my position in within 5-6 seconds... wicked fast!

Now, how you too can do this:

1. Download both files to your computer, then extract them.
2. Create a new folder called HTC QuickGPS and put all three of the extracted files (HTC_QuickGPS.cab, QuickGPS.exe, QuickGPS.reg) in the new folder .
3. Sync your Mogul and copy the HTC QuickGPS folder to your storage card.
4. Open a file explorer on your Mogul, other than the stock one in WM6. I personally use Resco File Explorer 2007 because it allows you to overwrite files, has a registry and FTP plugin, etc. Whtever you use, it must allow you to overwrite files.
5. Navigate to your storage card and then to the HTC QuickGPS folder you just copied there from your PC.
6. Install QuickGPS by clicking on the HTC_QuickGPS.cab file.
7. Click on the QuickGPS.reg file and you will be prompted wether or not you want to import these registry settings. Click Yes.
8. Copy the QuickGPS.exe file to the \Windows directory in main memory.
9. Open PIE, Opera or another app on your Mogul that opens an Internet connection (I did not have to do this for it to work, I presume that is because I use Activesync for push from my Exchange server).
10. Open QuickGPS and click the Download button.
11. Tap the X to minimize QuickGPS (you may be able to close it completely, I have not tested that yet).
12. Open your GPS app and be amazed at how fast you get lock, no matter whether you are inside or outdoors.

I hope this helps all of you having problems getting this installed. If you have problems or questions, feel free to post or PM me.

EDIT: RESOLVED. I checked the registry and it wasn't updated. I ran the reg edit again and it works great. Thanks!

Hey Rainfreak, I followed you instructions, got the reg edit done, moved the QuickGPS file to the Windoz directory, and when I run the prog from the Windows DIR, it connects, apparently d/l a file as the status bar moves, but when finished it pulls up a box that says Connection failed. Please try again later. I did reset after the reg edits (I'm an old dos guy, habit I guess) to make sure they took. Any ideas?

On Alltel:

I'm having some trouble with QuickGPS. Previously, the 'download' button would connect, have a progress bar, and then say 'Connection Failed, Please try later'.

I followed these instructions to try and get QuickGPS to work, and now when I try to open QuickGPS I get the error

"The file "QuickGPS" cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file."

Multiple reinstallations and recopying the registry file don't do anything different. I can plainly see that the old QuickGPS.exe file is still in Windows, even though I told it to overrite. I used Rosco 2008, on trial right now. Any suggestions to get this program working again?

What ROM do you have? I had VerInfou.dll missing from DCD 3.3.4 rom and it caused this problem. You have a similar file missing on the diamond.
