HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

Theres some OEMs for this floating around, anyone know of a cab? And is this thing carrier specific? will it work for VZW?

Thanks in advance.

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

yes it works with vzw.. it has nothing to do with carrier. i had to install the cab then place the quickgps.exe in the windows folder to replace the other one to get it to download right.

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

I dont mean to be dumb, as i dont feel like searching for the answer, i was just wondering what this quickgps does?

Im running the ppckitchen gps rom on mine now, so i doubt i even have a need for this, but just wondering...

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

i second that...

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

I want to know too! Does this mean I don't have to flash a new rom to get gps?

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

bump for answer

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

No, You still have to flash a new rom Quick GPS is supposed to help you get a GPS lock quicker.

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

Hi,

Sorry for dragging this post back up, but when i install the cab i get a 'certificate' error, does this mean its not built for my device?

Thanks

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

I also get the certificate error and was wondering the same thing. ](*,)

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

Same error on the Verizon HTC Touch Pro

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

It downloads seven days of GPS position data. This data enables the GPS to quickly determine its position. I usually get a 15 second fix with this updated data. The GPS no longer has to try to figure out its current position which on a cold start can take several minutes.

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

what does quick GPS actually modify and do? i know what the program description says but i was looking for a more in depth answer from u guys/gals

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

i dont get the error but i know that the prog advanced config has a option to turn that off.

Can't seem to get this to work on my Sprint Touch Pro with the VZW Rom.

The file 'QuickGPS.exe' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file.

I get this error after installing the cab and trying to run QuickGPS through the programs menu. I tried copying the other QuickGPS.exe to Windows folder on PPC but I still get the same error.

There was a Quickgps.reg file in the zip.... does that need to go somewhere/imported into the PPC registry?

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

I get the exact same error on the leaked VZW Touch Pro ROM as well. The Quickgps.reg file doesn't make it work either. Hmm...

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

Must not work with our ROM, I dunno.

I keep getting a pop up box every few seconds too so I had to uninstall it completely.

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

Yeah, this sucks. Oh well, once they get the unlocker working for the Verizon Touch Pro, I'm sure this will be able to be cooked into new ROMs. I believe NexVision has a working version of the unlocker!

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

Any luck with this on a Verizonized Sprint Touch Pro?

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

I installed this on my Sprint 6900. When I open quickgps & it needs to download latest info. I click download (while syncd to pc) & it cannot connect. I use usb & allow data connections. What am I doing wrong that keeps it from connecting?

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

"... error... not nigned with a trusted ce3rtificate "
same thing on htc polaris

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

I've used this on my sprint touch with the modified .exe and reg edits. It works except it doesn't like to run very long in the background which means it wont be able to automatically update or notify when the satellite positions are out of date.

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

I've sucessfully installed it and it did very little to nothing to speed up GPS lock - I downlaoded the GPS position data using Quick GPS (so it obviously worked) yet Google Maps sat there for minutes (as per usual) looking for GPS satellites.. Coudl it be that Quick GPS is snake oil and HTC are having a laugh?

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

The certs error is fixed by sdkcerts cab:

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

if you have a backup of your original rom, xtra.bin solved it for me (CDMA)

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

no one down load this stupic Program i down loaded it and it made my phone freak out i kept getting error messages, i couldnt connect to the web, many problems for the HTC TOUCH from SPRINT. total dissaster

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

I installed QuickGPS and it did nothing at all...luckily it did not mess up my Touch 6900.

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

I can verify that QuickGPS is a great program. I had it on my HTC Touch Pro under Alltel, before they were bought out by Verizon. When my phone died, the only replacement they had was the Touch Diamond. Sadly, Verizon does not like to let people use third-party programs. I'm attempting the certs suggestion from above as we speak, but I can verify that when it does work as intended, the program is wonderful and makes getting a satellite quite a pleasure.

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

I went through the whole process of downloading both cabs and installing quickgps on my touch pro 2, but I get a "Connection failed. Please try again." message. So frustrating.

QuickGPS will NOT connect on my 6900 - HELP!
 

First, let me say i'm very happy to have GPS on the 6900. Works great from warm/hot starts but, can take FOREVER with cold starts. I thought QuickGPS was my savior but, apparently it's my enemy on the 6900.

Have the HTC Vouge 6900 with custom ROM. Downloaded and installed lllboredlll's cabs and certs but, it will NOT connect. I know that the satellite almanac positioning is critical to getting fast locks.

Is there any other way to get this information or a way to get the QuickGPS working on the 6900?

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

The same thing on my touch.

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

Can somebody tell me how exactly to patch quickgps.exe.This will help to fix GPS Weather for latest manila

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

I wish I could help Vin but I have never messed with this on my Vogue. I never really have any issues with gps. I have Windows set to manage it and if I am having any trouble with a lock I run CleanRam on Level 2 and I usually get a lock within a few seconds.What do you mean by "patch?"

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

HTC Mega ROM has packages with
-HTC Location services
-Google Location services
-HTC Quick GPS
Google maps application works fine.Now,when I run quick GPS,its downloading something and then I get message "location service must be turned on".
It is turned on(because when I run GPS weather,Google asked to turn it on)but the message is still there.I found xtra.bin in temp folder,deleted and when I run quick GPS again another xtra.bin created in temp.This means everything works ok,but the message is still there and as a result-no GPS weather.Its kinda sucks to have AGPS device and not to use AGPS weather....I saw something over at xda about patching .exe...

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

Maybe it has something to do with the sddamon service thing that runs at startup. That has something to do with gps. I'm just guessing here. lol

Re: HTC Quick GPS CAB
 

I'm using the Touch Pro 2 (Verizon)

- I can download qucikgps from the cab file
- I can install it to my TF3D start menu as an icon
- I can load the app and run it

BUT the download button is misplaced and when I select download it appears to download something then just sit there. No menus, nothing.
