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.

I have one question about this (and it could be a stupid one so bear with me). I noticed a lot of people worried about roaming. My plan says it includes "no domestic roaming charges" as a feature. In the case that this gps fix does mean that we will be roaming, I wouldn't have to pay any fees would I? I just thought that others might be on the same plan as me and the answer to my question might ease peoples thoughts (if we dont get hit by the fees of course).

Yes that means that you will not pay any Roaming fees in the US.

Make sure you are using the Verizon dialer skin.

Please read completely. I really don't want to have posts asking about things stated in this post.


First and foremost.... This fix is to be considered beta at the present time. I WILL NOT be held responsible for any damage to your device or any charges from you carrier if you happen to be in roaming because of this.

I have successfully unlocked VZW's TP GPS. Please realise I'm still testing and tweaking the PRI to get the last little bugs out.


Here we go

1. download lllboredlll VZW GPS Fix.cab and put on your storage card
2. install cab but don't soft reset after
3. use gsfinder or total commander to navigate to \windows\ppst.exe
4. execute ppst.exe and go thru the prompts
5. reset your device as needed
6. make sure you location is turned on and enjoy

AT THIS PRESENT TIME I'D SUGGEST NOT DIALING *228 AFTER THIS FIX IS APPLIED. IT WILL UPDATE THE MODIFIED PRL AND SHOW THAT YOU ARE ROAMING.
IF YOU DO YOU CAN SIMPLY REAPPLY THE FIX TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE.


All navigation software might not work so you may need to open the port with HTC GPS tool that I attached. Settings are Q7500 chip 4800 buad and cold start. I don't have AGPS configured because this thing locks in 2 seconds. There is no need for a data connection to assist when the results are that dang fast.





If you need to go back to the OEM PRI I have attached it aswell. Just go thru the same steps as far as installing and then ppst.exe



If you take my research and improve on it all I ask is that you atleast give me credit for the discovery. I've spent a ton of hours working with NV files and PRI's.

Hope everyone enjoys.....


A special thanks goes out to GC14 for his roaming fix. Thank you very much.

Project Update: Phase II should be done within the next day or two. I'm not going to elaborate on what it will be at this time but I'm gonna put a cool spin on things for us VZW users.

Any chance we'd be able to get ya to work on this for the Samsung Omnia SCH-i910? Been waiting forever at http://www.modaco.com/content-page/2...p-us/page/580/ and they haven't had any luck.

Thanks!
