6/8/09 FIRMWARE UPDATE: Verizon GPS Unlocked

[ksg]

-= For those of us who don't read instructions =-

For those of you who flashed a Sprint Touch Pro to Verizon, this GPS fix will give you a Verizon PRI.

If you've flashed this fix to an Alltel phone, you're now stuck w/ a Verizon PRI also (which will give you the roaming triangle.... and tell you you're in 'digital roam') ... until now.

Here is the PPST PRI update for Alltel for the Diamond & Touch Pro. This will get you back to PRI 1.28_011. Also, if you're trying to migrate a Diamond/Touch Pro from Sprint/Verizon/Telus/etc. to Alltel you'll also want this PRI.

Instructions to install:

1. Download PPST_080714_VictorC_Alltel_1.28_delta.sa.zip and unzip.
2. Connect your phone with ActiveSync and transfer PPST_080714_VictorC_Alltel_1.28_delta.sa.cab to your phone.
3. Run PPST_080714_VictorC_Alltel_1.28_delta.sa.cab from your phone
4. Using File Explorer (or total commander, or whatever you have...) go to \windows and launch PPST.exe
5. Answer yes at the prompts. Your phone will now reboot.
6. Go to start -> Settings -> Device Information and check to make sure your PRI version is now 1.28_011
7. Dial *228 and then select 1 to program your phone OTA. This should download the latest PRL for you and get your phone back out roaming, etc.



Special thanks to Conflipper who found the signed Victor rom I was able to rip this out of. I've tested this personally on two Touch Pros. However, as with everything else... use at your own risk.
