I may look into it in due time. First is AGPS for VZW then I am also looking into the Omnia. Once I get those complete I'll take a look at the Q. No promises on what I can do with it. All the devices dont program the same way and it's really hard to code radio functions without a device to test on.

Is it because it can not uninstall the CAB from the second phase?

ROM VZ Stock original
It seems that HTC GPS Tool does get satellites but none of them fix. Google Maps and Live Maps do not get past the "Initializing GPS..." and "Getting Position..." prompts.

If you havent done so already, I would take it outside and try to get the lock that way..I can get a lock inside, but it takes a lot longer because of the lack of signal...Outside I can get a lock in about 45 seconds... Also I've noticed that using the HTC GPS Tool, I cant get a lock until it sees about 8 satellites..But thats just me, everyone seems to be different..

When I first used the fix, I got a lock inside the house. Also, the information that HTC GPS Tool had in that text box in the program window was different when there was a lock in Google Maps the first time.

Updated the PRL as in the first post and redid the fix, it works as before - GPS locks on in HTC GPS Tool.
