GPS kick start for unsigned drivers

[mardukeme]

hgray,

Can you modify your program to start the virser_gps.dll as well I have uploaded a different set of drivers for the Vogue which can be found here. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=25407

First of all, I hate you because I should be studying for a math exam I have in 5 hours. (3:18AM right now)

Second, I'd be glad to do it. I have a Q though... Why is qccmquery.dll left out of your archive? Is it not used?

I'm building a cab this time, but will put up the exe for you in case you might get better use out of it. Having computer issues, so posting the files in a few.


EDIT: Check the first post in the thread for the updated files.

Not sure whats going on,.... I installed the new drivers and kick start that hgray posted, and right away Google maps told me that I was in the Atlantic Ocean near Nigeria. After a few seconds, I am just west of telegraph, just over the border from MI, in Ohio. I am in Ypsilanti, MI. I have not tested my phones GPS here yet. Also, I am still not getting any lock ons at all with Google Maps saying Seeking GPS Satellites (0).
HELP!

This has made my phone VERY unstable. It has locked on me about 3 times since installing it this morning. Sometimes after a soft-reset I'll get the calnot.exe and repllog.exe errors too.

I don't get any errors, but while running gps, my phone is fine as long as I only do gps. Haven't had too much time to play, but this is my experience so far. I could get lock with google, but not independently with garmin xt.

mardukeme just updated the drivers again in the other post. he said they were taking up most of the CPU/RAM, so he altered them.

I'm so confused between this thread and the other thread

http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=25407

I'm using the new drivers (from ZIP file in the above thread which I think were extracted from files in this thread). I'm running on a Sprint Phone and GPSDaemonService no longer starts on it's own (Like it did on early Enable GPS Titan.CAB). But what's funny is it's running great with out the Service Running !!!

I posted the drivers originally on the other thread, but hgray was nice enough to create an installer that would install all the drivers, and automatically start them on each soft reset.

An yes only gpsid_qct.dll is the only file needed to start the gps devices, but if the gps goes into standby mode there will be issues. The other files are need to correct this, and provide other services.

Can you explain a little more, or give a pointer.

I'm still confused:

1) Why did original drivers in GPS Titan Enable.Cab Start and not these.

2) I thought the "unlock/prep" scripts we run before installing GPS Drivers makes it so "unsigned drivers" would work. But this trick didn't work on Alltel and the need for kickstart.

3) Are you saying KickStart has migrated into "Restart" (from standby) for everyone (Alltel, Verizon, Sprint) on any "Hacked" GPS ROM?

4) Does Titan stock GPS ROM need this too?

Thanks for the help

1. ) Not sure I have no idea how the cab was created.

2.) The alltel users were the first to be the GPS testers, and there was no cab created the files were manually copied over. Do to the fact that these files did not have a signed security cert, the system would not load the drivers. So hgray being an Alltel users and the first to get GPS working had created a program to load the drivers.

3.) Kickstart is just a utlity to autmaticly load the GPS devices and GPS service. Being the Touch does not have GPS officially user borrowed drivers from other devices, that seemed to worked. Though after reading many of the threads many of the users are having problems. They are able to get a GPS lock during intial use but later on they are having problems, me myself included.

Which leads to the drivers I had posted. Before the new radio I had tried to get GPS going on the Vogue but was unsuccessful. Due to this process I had accumilated alot of different drivers. Some of which when launched the GPS locked the device, other did nothing, other activated the GPS but made it sluggish. Long story short I posted the best combination that I found out of the drivers.

An example of this is booting a XP machine into safemode the video driver works, but the diaplay doesn't look to good. The video card is no being used to it's full potential. After a reset and you boot the machine normally the display looks a lot better, you are using the correct driver.

4.) No the Titan has a Official GPS rom.
