Still GPS Problems
 
Here is the situation.... ROM Version 3.35.671.9 Radio Version 3.37.20 According to everything I read, those are the specs you need to use the GPS on your phone. I have alltel, plus a brand new phone. None of the software I use seems to activate the gps. Tried Google Maps, GPS Viewer, VisualGPSce. Nothing. I have tried setting to COM4 and COM5 with 4800 baud rate and nothing. I am in dire need. Please help. When using Google Maps. It says Initializing GPS, for about 15 seconds. Then it says no GPS receiver can be found?

It seems to take quite a while to get the very first lock. I stood outside on a clear night the first time I tried using it and it took about 10-15 minutes to get a lock with Google Maps. You should be on COM4 with a baud rate of 4800.

My first lock took several minutes, after that it always worked right away, even after hard resets and such.

Sounds like you only have upgrade the "offical HTC Alltel" Rom, am I right?
That's not enough since the new Alltel Rom doesn't support GPS.....
Anyway, I attached the zip file here with all the files you needed.

Step 1: unzip and install HTC_GPS_Enable_for_Titan_3.35.cab, soft reset
Step 2: install the 1, 2, and 3 files one by one with soft reset in between
You should be done by now. If not, install the 1,2 and 3 files again.

Remember to turn on your GPS location :)

Hope that would help you
