Sorry it took so long for me to reply. I had to step out for a bit. Thanks for the help though! Your phone is down, but you're still in the game!

So, there is no "Device Manager", but there is just a tab called Devices.

Things are named:
$device\xxx(xxx
and the column next to it is the status of the device. Sound right?


So, I looked again and I missed it the first time, but there is a device called "GPD0". It is running the gpsid_qct.dll.
I was able to load the device.

There is another device that looks relative called "GPS1". It runs viser_gps.dll.
I can't load it.

The only other thing I saw that was relative was the service (under the services tab) "GPC1". It runs GpsDaemonService.dll.
I cannot start it.

I also just noticed that GPSID_QCT.DLL is linked to COM4, so I am gonna try and see what I can get out of that with live search or system prefs, because I believe you can select a com port for an external gps. Maybe this will trick it into working. :-/



@ wnbowman: make sure you *228 your phone and press 3. (htc's instructions)
My phone kept flashing the roaming triangle too. Technically I'm out of my home area, but I just change the SID back when I go from Clemson to Charleston.

hgray,

I had the same problem before regarding GpsDaemonService.dll i could not start the service, I was receiving the same error message as you are, but I found another version of the file some where else and I was able to start the service. I will look and see if I had saved a copy of GPSDaemonservice.dll somewhere its been a while since I last attempted to get GPS going on our phones.

I uploaded the file not sure if this is the correct one. I do not a valid phone to test it.

I wouldn't do that to you, and that is the reasons why I have not uploaded the radio rom without the spl up. I did not want to be responsible for screwing peoples phones up

I don't think any .dlls can brick your phone?

You may have to reflash but throwing a .dll is like messing corrupting a computer os you can always reformat.

But to each their own.

Stepped out for a bit only to come back and read about possible GPS too now. This just keeps getting better and better.

I will wait for the finished product though. I only have my cell(no home phone) and I need my phone.

Looking forward to trying the finished product though.

Thanks!

The driver you gave is much smaller, and it works!

GPS still doesn't seem to be working though.

VIRSER_GPS.DLL still won't load. I'm guessing this is holding it back.
Reg Key seems to say that it is a Virtual Com for GPS1. It's device.

@Calisoldier: so the cab just tosses in dlls? If so, what difference does that make from what I'm doing?

hgray,

Try this version of VIRSER_GPS.DLL, same as before not sure if it will work.

Still working on getting the dang file on my phone. Having issue with my bluetooth.

Wow... this is ridiculous. I can't send it through email either... gmail isn't working.



Okay, finally got that file working... tinkering now.
Should there ever be an option for the gps in "Settings" other than external?

Also, any way to get the dlls to load at startup?
