there is your answer and it works I run a few tests with it

I apologize in advance if this has been asked, but is there any way to keep the gps on (say Google maps running and downloading data) but completely turn off the screen to save battery? If I hit the button on the top of the phone, it turns off the screen but also goes into a semi-sleep mode where the gps seems to stop tracking. I want the phone to act exactly as if it was on, but just completely turn off the screen and even better the touch sensitivity unless a button is pushed.

Install QuickGPS. It's referenced in the first post. The first time you run it the program will fail to update the GPS almanac. Soft reset and then try to run the update again and it will work. Once you have the most current almanac run the GPS Tool again.

Another question, does this fix work with google maps. Because when i enable GPS on google map, it says failed to connect. Also the HTC GPS knows my location but i don't think it can commute with the google maps program.

Yes it sure does work with google maps. Make sure its set to com4 within google maps(I'm pretty sure that can be set within google maps)

I think I have done everything right yet don't have any satellite signals showing up. In addition everytime I change the parameters on GPS tools it always goes back to the default. Any suggestion on what to look for to see if things are done right.

Make sure your location is set to ON. And also if this is your first time installing this fix. I would take your phone outside and get the locks that way. Use QuickGPS it works really good.

In your battery settings you can uncheck the option to "turn off device if not used for *** " and just leave it set to turn off the backlight.
