I don't care for the roaming icon, it doesn't bother me and even if the sign is there you do not get billed for roaming and even then I don't care if I do! My only problem is that if I'm in roaming, my exchange server is not connected (need to do manual send/receive) and it's not possible on the touch pro to ask it to still be connected in roaming (the checkbox is there, but can't be selected...) Any solutions?????? Thanks!!

I need to look at the Telus PRI before I can really comment. Someone needs to post it. I'm not downloading the whole ROM for the PRI. Way too many files to keep sorted as it is.

Alright, I'll post it tomorrow for sure!
Just out of curiosity, can't you create a file like :Verizon Nationwide EVDO PRL 51143 Modified.zip (3.3 KB, 20 views) but for TELUS...? Maybe it's a dumb question lol...

I'd rather customize the PRI. The PRL patch will work for the PRL only not all of the settings. You will basically be running Sprint's settings instead of Telus. The new fix I posted gives Verizon users a clean PRI with a code sequence added for the GPS.

Re: 12/25/08 Verizon GPS Fix v2.0

Got it working (Phase II) with Scrosler's 3rd ROM and with Google Maps. Now here is my dumb question...Do you why it wouldn't work with the ROM I created using PPCKitchen or with Nex's ROM?

Re: 12/25/08 Verizon GPS Fix v2.0

Just tested phase II - the results I've gotten so far on my stock ROM touch pro are uneven - phase II so far is the same although I'm testing indoors. It takes a long time to start seeing satellites and even longer to fix any if it does. Soft reset seems to help. Once it starts seeing more than 4 satellites AND it fixes then it works nicely with TomTom 7 and Google maps. I've tested driving with the TomTom - it was accurate although different than my TomTom6 with GlobalSat BT359 (always seems to say double the yards until turn but tells me to turn at the right time). The person who referred to priming the pump with the HTC GPS Tool had it right. It's as though my phone needs to warm up the satellite chip/antennae etc before it will work. During the time I wrote this it finally fixed. Maybe this is a good sign. If its consistent I will be happy even if I have to wait 5 minutes to fix. It's great that lllboredlll has been able to unlock this - many thanks.

Re: 12/25/08 Verizon GPS Fix v2.0

I installed v2 on scotts rom and get instant locks on 7 satelites in the HTC GPS utility, however it does not work in Google Maps. Any ideas?

okay I got it to work. For all of you that this happens to. I simply changed the settings in google maps from automatic to COM4/4800 and it worked instantly.
