I'm the one who did that, but my pri is still 1.33_003 after running that update what should the PRI be now?

This worked. Went from having to sit outside my car for a few minutes to lock gps with no gps locks inside to gps locks inside my house, office, and car within 20 seconds. Thanks.

I can also confirm. 6 sats locked within 20 seconds. Thanks for the fix. WooHoo.

Hey guys I just tried this but couldn't do the leaked flash cause rapitool kept crashing. Heres what I did. I extracted the leaked rom and copied the the ppst cab over and ran it. Then I ran ppst from the windows folder and bam.

I am testing gps but the signal is amazing now. This is absolutely makes a difference in reception. I will post my gps results soon.

Great work...

I read in a different thread that removing the battery can clear up intermittent GPS issues.

IT WORKS!

My GPS worked perfectly yesterday, today nothing. Removed the battery for 10 seconds and now back with 8 satellites.

The question is of course how to keep this problem from happening in the first place.

Any ideas?

Above, my PRI is 2.03_003

No priming and/or quick starting or additional DLL installations!

I'm in fear of flashing anything else in fear of losing what I consider a flawless working setup!

Wishing all the same.

I just did this.... now I am in that boat of people who need to align the screen after every soft reset. Bugger again.

How do you determine what your pri is? I wanna see what mine is before I rerun ppst

hey all, I am running the leaked sprint rom on my bell touch. Is it ok for me to run the ppst file? It seems that everybody in here has let the customizations run on this rom so I assume that means you guys are on sprint. Since I am not on sprint, is it ok to run ppst? (Does it have anything to do with sprint that may mess up my bell stuff?)

kind of a cooky question, but thanks for any replies,
cheers

I sent you a PM can you email me that PPST.exe. BTW from what I heard you don't want to run the PPST unless you're on sprint.
