I have stock OEM Alltel Rom and radio mentioned in the trouble-shooting so I did not perform any ROM update as the 6800 had and saved the 4 files from the zip into my main memory and installed them in sequence per the instructions into Main Memory and confirmed all my settings per the trouble-shooting also and still no GPS enabled.

The only thing I did not find a way to perform was the -Location Setting must be ON...I did get to the Phone\menu\options...\Services\Location Setting on my Alltel Touch and had a listing for the "Location Settings" but could get to a place where I could turn it ON or Off; it was just listed. And whe i highlighted the Location Settings and clicked "Get Settings" it does not respond with anything to allow this On/Off setting.

What's the deal with that??? Any idea on what that means when i cannot get the choice for these Location Settings or is it set to ON since it's listed?

Thanks in advance,
bimerguy

you select location setting then click 'get settings...'

if it does nothing when u click 'get settings...' then i have no idea. ill look into that. i belive there is registry entry for all those items listed. let me see if there is a flag that will disable you from changing that. check back in a bit. if there is you will ne a registry editor. task manager 3.1 will work.

I just tried to download and it sends me to the HTC link and they have no update listed. I have the update but it is too big to put on this site so if you pm me I will send it to you.

bimerguy,

open up a registry editor and go to the key

HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\PhoneSetting\Location Setting

there should be 12 entries
(D means Dword, S means String)
these are the important ones.

D - ItemCount (2)
S - ItemName1 (ON)
S - ItemName2 (OFF)
D - ItemValue1 (0)
D - ItemValue2 (3)
S - ServiceName (Location Setting)
S - ServiceTitle (Phone: Location Setting)

make sure u put these in the soft reset if they arent there.

Alrighty,

1. Went through. Fresh Flash.

2. Installed the .cab file that you linked to.

3. Enabled Location and GPS settings.

4. Installed Google Maps

5. Loaded up Google maps, clicked "Use GPS"

No worky.



Sits there for about 30 seconds saying "Initializing GPS..." before coming back and saying I don't have a GPS Receiver installed.

I can try to re-flash again, but not sure if it's going to help much. Will try again tonight.

I think you did everything ok on the flash but you need to go in and do the unlock GPS with the 4 small cab files. When you get that working then you can go in and do the fast lock that Shadow Tech has written the instructions on. GOod Luck

Is this the cab file that has the 4 steps in it to unlock the GPS?
