word to what he said. i got the bat icon after i install either home or the x button app, and in 6.1 it looks all glitchy b/c i assume its fighting w/ another icon or something.

i noticed the moguls GPS does not like to operate in standalone mode, neither in flight mode nor while in no service

to enable full standalone operation with no server assistance that will work in flight mode or no service flawlessly (with a lock just as quick as when in agps mode,YMMV)

go to HKLM > SOFTWARE > HTC > SUPL AGPS >

change EnableAGPS to 0
change EnableGPSSmartMode to 0
change GPSMode to 1

and soft reset, that will set the mogul to operate in full standalone mode only,

if you want server assistance still you can try changing GPSMode to 2 (server assist) or 4 (server assist/hybrid) and that should leave the server assistance enabled BUT let it still operate in flight mode or standalone /w no service (i have not tested that)

this covers the 3.35 rom only, and as always is as your own risk and YMMV

• Standalone - Your handset has no connection to the network, and uses only the GPS satellite signals it can currently receive to try and establish a location.
• MS Based - Your handset is connected to the network, and uses the GPS signals + a location signal from the network.
• MS Assisted - Your handset is connected to the network, uses GPS signals + a location signal then relays its 'fix' to the server, which then uses the signal strength from your phone to the network towers to further plot your position. You can still maintain voice communication in this scenario, but not 'Internet/Network service' ie Web Browser, IM, streaming TV etc..
• MS Assisted/Hybrid - Same as above, but network functionality remains. Normally only in areas with exceptional coverage.

that list is in the same order as the gpsmode tweak on the mogul

so 1 is standalone and 4 is hybrid, hope this information helps

Hey!!!! How The Fudge Do I Change My Weather From Celcius To Farhenheit??

[Bookman375]

I'm using the Verizon VX6800. The PHM Registy Editor will not install on mine. The others I've tried will not alter any registry settings (my theory being they were all designed for units prior to the new memory scheme). Any suggestions?

Also, how do I unprotect files in the /Windows directory so I can overwrite them? I know that question doesn't belong in this thread, but I'm sure it's related.

To disable sprints data connection, this is if you only want to use WiFi. It helps if you dont have data plan becuase for some reason the phone uses the Data plan even if WiFi connection is present.

Change:
From
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A3 8-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\Connections\Sprint PCS]
"Enabled"=dword:00000001

to
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A3 8-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\Connections\Sprint PCS]
"Enabled"=dword:00000000
