Re: Verizon GPS Fix.....Phase I

I was able to get some satellite fixes last night but am unable to get any this morning. I'll try again tomorrow but this is just being a huge pain in the butt for me right now.

I'm using the stock ROM with this fix and am able to find a few satellites but none actually get fixed. Tried when I was on the road today and no success their either. It's annoying how for me it's hit and miss (last night it worked, today it's not).

You most likely need to program your device to use aGPS as like I said, the stock rom doesn't do for you.

If you have a data plan try the AGPS fix linked in the first post. Make sure you read both the first post here and the linked wiki page. There's one minor difference in the port assignment. Make sure you follow the steps on the wiki to an exact.

Everyone is suggesting I try it however...I can't. You did not link to the Wiki from what I could see and the QPST link is dead, can't attempt anything if I can't get the tools

EDIT: Wll I just tried again and managed to get it to work, although took me over 60 seconds to get a fix on a sattelite - hopefully it will stay working

Exclamation Re: Verizon GPS Fix.....Phase I

I did the QPST aGPS fix, and now I no longer need to use HTC GPS TOOL, it gets the fixes automatically so I like that fact. Also, for those of you who like me couldn't download QPST from the first post I put it on my FTP server.
