Will flashing to the new ROM fix this, or are other people having these problems?

Are there settings in QPST I can mod to fix this?

This sounds very similar to the problem some Bell users are having after installing the new Bell Touch rom (WM6.1/GPS/Rev.A). The phone switches to 1X instead of Ev is certain areas, particularly certain areas in Toronto. Other areas have no problem, and phone stays in Ev mode.

^they had already fixed it. As for the Virser dll, I don't advise it, I don't use it and do not have any problems after following the instructions posted.

Hey tobeychris - are you getting periodic freeze ups of your phone since installing this rom? I am getting them and am trying to figure out whether it is my phone or the rom. TIA

[tobeychris]

I can't answer as I don't actually use this ROM, I only used it for testing purposes to help others.

After installing this rom you should then dial *ACT03 or *22803, press 1 for English, and then press 1 to program your phone.

If you want to use just this rom, and keep your 3.xx radio version (ie 3.42.30) then the .nbh is here

************************************************** **********************

QPST GPSOne Settings:

These settings are used to properly configure the Assisted-GPS on the Telus HTC Touch (Vogue). Without these settings, many people cannot get the gps to work, but after applying these setting, get an instant GPS lock.

1. Connect your Vogue to your computer with the usb cable. This is also an excellent time to back up anything, just in case.

2. We need to put the phone in diagnostic mode. This is done by running dmrouter.exe, similar to epst.exe by dialing ##DIAG Send (##3424 Send) or ##DIAG# (##3424#)

3. Let windows install your new hardware. There will be two dialogs that come up. The first one should install after you click next. The next will require a file called qcmdmxp.sys and says it can't be found. As luck has it, your computer already has this file, and it's located here:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\.
Simply tell the wizard to look there, and it will show the file, click on it, and the installation will finish.

4. Install QPST if you haven't already.

5. Run the Service Programming program under the QPST start menu.

6. Double click on the little globe at the bottom right of your screen.

7. Click on Add New Port, and add COM4 - USB/QC DIAGNOSTIC. (might be another COM for some people)

8. Close the QPST Configuration window, and go back to the QPST Service Programming window.

9. Click on your phone, which should now be there, and then click OK.

10. Click on Read From Phone and then enter your SPC and click OK.

11. Goto the gpsOne tab (you'll have to scroll to the right) and enter these details:

 
Allowed = checked
Assistanc-Spherical = checked
PDE IP Address = 216.198.139.92
PDE Port Number = 8889
PDE Transport = IP
Position Calculation = PDE

12. SOFT RESET

13. Test GPS - I got 8 satellites in 1s.

************************************************** **********************

If programming your phone fails, and you don't have any data do the following:

1. Get your SPC using GetSPC and this DLL (copy both to your memory card, then run the program and enter your HEX ESN, then click go) (OR USE THE METHOD BELOW)
2. Once your phone has rebooted, you will have to press ##778 [Send]
3. Press Edit
4. Enter your SPC
5. Change all of the 000000xxxx@mb.telus to your phone number ie 4161234567@mb.telus as well as the MSID, Mobile Directory Number, Security Settings, and default profile.

Some may also want to look at THIS thread on how to change your SPC to a much more convenient number for the future as well, all you need is QPST. This is reverted back to the ESN based SPC when you reflash a stock rom though.

An alternative (and much better way) to get your SPC is to Connect to ActiveSync, click on Explore, click on My Windows Mobile-Based Device, then copy the file PPST58 (PPST58.log if you can see extensions) to where ever, open it with a text editor, and you should see this:

00:05:22 ppst58_funcGo()...
00:05:22 CheckRadioState(), 0th Phone status =1
00:05:22 CheckRilPort(), Check Ril Port...
00:05:22 CheckRilPort(), Init Ril port...
00:05:23 CheckRilPort(), Ril port ok
00:05:23 Go!!!
00:05:23 LoadLibrary
00:05:23 Get

00:05:24 SPC:
00:05:24 ######

The ###### is your SPC! Freely available to you in a nice text file. Big thanks to Rural Guy for pointing this out.

Maybe someone can help. I installed the WM6.1 ROM update from the HTC Website. Telus Nan seems to be the only GPS software that will work. Live Search n Goodle Maps get nothing. WHTF , how do i fix this, can it be fixed

Is it possible to compile all these steps into a cab file, or even better an updated ROM that could just be flashsed
