Alltel GPS with A-GPS - super fast lockon

[Aok-knight]

Does it work on cricket?

[MrObvious]

Cricket should work. As far as the NZ PDE servers just use the Alltel ones and if it doesn't work get on Google.

another thing I noticed - if I hard reset but don't allow Telenav to install, the settings stick. I hard reset a second time, and allowed Telenav to install and the settings were changed. The IP was removed and the port 8888 was removed. Trying to make it work again...

[MrObvious]

I just did it after I installed Telenav and it works fine.

Does anyone know if this will work on the Alltel HTC Touch (Vogue)?

[MrObvious]

Yes it will.

To even get my GPS to function on the Alltel Touch (with the 6.1 upgrade)...I had to:
Set the GPS for Port 4 with a 4800 baud rate
Apply the fix from page one of this thread.

The GPS would not even register with LiveSearch or Google Maps before applying the fixes. Thanks!

Just reporting the results of doing this on my Sprint Mogul.

It seems like I do get faster lock after doing this and also locks on to more pilots and or satellites. For example I had 11 outside with clear skies, previously I would get about 8 max. While increase in satellites improves accuracy, I have not observed any increase in sensitivity. I still cannot get a lock inside my office.

Thanks for writing up the tutorial, cabs and links.

i took that sitting in my car, after driving to work with it on, and I'm parked up on the top floor of a 3 story building facing south, i can't get a lock, i feel like i've done everything including hard reseting 50 times, this is the best I can do
