Re: HTC QuickGPS - Locks in under a minute EVERYTIME...After LOTS of reading...

Install & Run HTC QuickGPS - Click the Download button.

That persistently annoying failed to connect alert will appear after the download has completed.

Navigate to the Temp directory on your device. You will find a file called xtra.bin located there.

Copy xtra.bin to the root directory of the Windows folder on your device.

After re-running HTC QuickGPS it will now show that the data has been updated.

After doing this it appears that I am consistently getting GPS locks in under a minute.

My question is: how can we make it so our devices allow QuickGPS to copy the xtra.bin on its own! Or is there an easier fix that I have overlooked in my research?

Please feel free to share!
\I have downloaded the cab file and install to my HTC Touch Pro. but I cant open QuickGPS.exe It said something like it is not signed with a trusted certificate or some componet is not found. So wat can I do?

+1 for BAF Gps Toggle. Speeds up locks and allows me to turn off GPS for battery life.

Re: HTC QuickGPS - Locks in under a minute EVERYTIME...After LOTS of reading...

I have an HTC Touch Pro and downloaded your cab file and installed QuickGPS but it won't load - I get an error message saying that one of its components can't be found. I looked for the xtra.bin file as you suggested but it's not in the temp directory. Any further thoughts?

Re: HTC QuickGPS - Locks in under a minute EVERYTIME...After LOTS of reading...

HELP ME PLEASE! I recently had to replace my Alltell Touch Pro. When I got the replacement, it had a different revision Rom (2.01.671.1). It had QuickGPS already installed (unlike the rom on my previous TP) and it would not download. Kept saying download failed try again later. So I downloaded the QuickGPS with patch at the beginning of this thread. Now its saying it "cannot be opened. Either not signed with a trusted certificate or one of its components cannot be found."
