Re: Must be me, Vogue GPS Question
 
okay so i feel your problem. iv tried and tried and tried different things and not locks no luck.](*,) the one thing i havent tried is going to a pre gps rom and then to a gps rom. so if u went from the off. vzw 6.1 update to a custom gps rom your gps wont work. the only reason i haven tried this yet is because i havent found a good help thread about doing it via usb only. im afrade to use the meathod of flashing using sd card. so if someone has one a big thanks i advance.

just something i started at but didnt end up finding what i wanted hope it helps man http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/archive/in...p/t-30718.html

Ok so I'm going to try a custom cooked rom and see if this helps me out. But I have a question. Since I have radio version 3.37.78, do I need to upgrade to the Sprints 3.42.30 version?

I think I'm going to go ahead and give it a shot, but just wanted to ask.

Where do you live? I live in Las Vegas, Nv and have always had outstanding service. Even when i worked in the basement of the casino as a cook. Only Sprint/Nextel worked down there. All the sous chefs have Nextel chirps.

Santa Barbara CA. We have a lot of farm/herding land between cities and verizon is the only service that you can get between cities on my drive home.

Hey guys - maybe you can help me. I followed all of the instructions at: http://wiki.ppchaven.com/index.php?t...IX_VERIZON_GPS to downgrade my radio and work my way back up. (Before I did that, I had done the aGPS hack - installed the drivers and changed everything in QPST, but it still wasn't working.) So I decided to follow those steps from start to finish.

Problem is, now when I try to install the drivers in HTC Diagnostic mode, I keep getting the MS New Hardware Wizard looking for the drivers. I've installed, and reinstalled (rebooting the desktop every time) at least 4 times - same result every time. (I actually tried doing it on a different computer as well, and get the same result, so I assume it's something I've done with the phone.

I've now updated to the 3.42.50 Radio w/ the Bell Rom, and then flashed NFSFAN's 6.5 v6. Any ideas?

Ok results from this is a no go, My guess is my vogue is really locked or something. Oh well going to revert back to the updated verizon rom and put all my settings on again. Thanks for the help all, its just a lost cause for me.

Try this after installing WModem drivers. Get activesync connection and put phone in DMR mode. Unplug miniUSB from phone and plug back in. It should recognize then and allow you into service programming.

Thanks for the reply Josh. Unfortunately that didn't work, but I actually got some help from kmanuel over @ XDA.

In case anyone else has the problem, it turns out that it was because I'm running XP on my desktop. XP requires special drivers. The further problem was that I tried installing them, they weren't installed in the drivers folder, they were in another folder labeled 'DRVSTORE'.

Anyway, if you're getting the New Hardware Wizard when you're connecting in DIAG mode, check out this thread - worked for me & kmanuel!
