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

I'm not sure why people are afraid of using lllboredlll's GPS Fix v2.0

I installed it and followed his directions. Been using it for almost 2 months now. It works great!!

Thanks again lllboredlll !

Have you checked to make sure Location on is checked? Have you gone outside and tried to get the locks with HTC GPS Tool?

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

if this fix is more major than a rom upgrade, i can't wait to do a rom upgrade. in perhaps ten minutes, i had gps running on the vz touch pro i received last night. fired up google maps - went into its options/gps settings/and "set manually" com4: w/ 4800 - and the thing worked like a champ! i went for a drive and google maps followed me very accurately.

|||bored|||, et. al., thanks for all the work you're doing to improve the experience of the ppc community!

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

Thanks Bored - I've been using your GPS fix for 2 months now and it's worked great on my Verizon HTC Touch Pro.

I see that HTC has released a new ROM on their website:
Release Date: 2009-02-16
http://www.htc.com/www/SupportViewNe...501&news_id=67

If I install this new ROM, will the GPS fix keep working?

Has anyone tryed this new ROM yet?
