Does this work on a locked phone? I haven't unlocked mine yet because I'm still trying to get a hang of all this and I don't want to screw something up.

My phone is not unlocked. It took me a bit but now it works famously!

I think this fix is so great it needs to be on a permanent sticky. Anyone else have the same thought?

SO my question is this.

Since this is a hardware thing, after following these steps if i flash to a different rom i do not have to do it again correct?

[dimitri]

Am I the only one that clicks on the phone setting and doesn't have the locations setting?

When I first tried to install the fix, I looked through \Windows\ with Total Commander and I couldn't find a ppst.exe so I assumed the PPST attachment from lllboredlll was the file I needed and installed it. I followed the instructions completely, my location settings are LOCATION ON, and I ran HTC GPS Tool and opened the port with the suggested settings, but I am still not getting a lock on any satellites. Any suggestions?

Bored - u are totally f**king AWESOME....Santa's on his way right now....GC too (u accept donations? if so where?)!

I actually took it out for a drive with OCN8 (which is a must have KILLER app BTW) It worked flawlessly but there is a slight delay when it needs to re-calc route (about a block or so before it re-directs you & this didn''t happen with bTooth recvr) Speaking of which ---any fix for this delay??

Hey Scrosler. I am using your First ROM Kitchen but don't seem to have the Locations Setting under phone so I can't seem to turn my loction on for this GPS fix.
