How To: Configure GPS - Page 2

I've uploaded the new version of QPST.

Now that I have this phone, it has been tested and worked on the first try!

My Telus TP2 did not have the gpsOne settings programmed, though I did not test the GPS before setting them.

Tobey, did you get an error message after you selected write to phone

Nope, what was it?

Also, post your windows version.

I think I must need the new version of QPST. It was giving me the odd write error to the phone, kept saying that it "lost connection. Boo.

And even with the CAB files entered in, my GPS is finicky as all get out. I was able to finally get it working in my office after about 4 tries and about 10 minutes.

Yay, I have 8 sats locked, but in the time it took me to do that I could have been there. Outside, yes, locks a bit better and faster, but it's still a bit bi-polar. Will try the changes tomorrow and see.

And as always, Chris, you are our hero

Was it this one?

I'm running XP Pro SP2.

oh! I did get that, but that was when I was trying to change my SPC, not the GPS or banner settings.

That's the error I got when trying to write my gpsOne values back to the phone in QPST. I disconnected, went back into ##DIAG and re-read my values, and the changes I made were definitely written...despite the error...so I didn't worry about it too much.

I got an error message as well, can't remember which one, but didn't worry about it as all the values were written. I changed my GPS settings, banner and setup my NAM2.

Cab file worked for TELUS..! Thanks, that was easy

I had GPS working right out of the box for four days. Now, I've got nothing. Tried a hard reset (using Clear Storage) and the CAB file, then today the GPSOne settings. Nothing. Nada.

My wife's TP2 works fine. Mine outright refuses to do GPS now. I think some GPS setting is surviving the hard reset.
