GC--can you do a cab for this now for the less skilled?
I'm a tech, so I don't mind the registry editing.
I just love standardization.
e.g., Sprint-do this; Alltel--do this (same steps, different numbers.)
jtg
This was exactly what I was looking for! After following these instructions I've been able to get a lock within 30 seconds. Even inside my apartment or office!
Awesome instructions. Went from a 10 minute lock to 10 seconds. Can't say enough how well this works.

PPC6800 (Alltel) GPS problems...
Lemme just say, yes this is my first post and I have to start somewhere so why not with a question...
So I've been trying to get Google Maps to initialize the GPS reciever but it never does. It simply replies back with "No GPS reciever was found." and I know the reciever is there because at the very least the phone has to be E911 compliant so is there something I could do to further this process or am I an idiot and didn't notice something? Anything would be helpful and thank you in advance.
You did go to phone > menu - options > services > Location setting and turn it to on, right?
Ok, I guess I should ask, you do have a GPS enabled radio installed? This thing isn't Alltel stock is it?
In addition to that very valid question
If you are running custom dcd roms 3.2.x and you have alltel there is no excuse for not running radio 3.37.20. It wipes out all bluetooth, wifi, gps, and poor signal problems. I never have to wait more than 5 seconds on cold start for gps with amaze gps and never more than 10 seconds with google maps. I would recomend dcd 3.2.6. Secondly do go to location settings->on. Make sure bluetooth gps in settings is set to "com 4" and try cycling wifi and bluetooth on and off. Also hook back up to QPST, dial "##3424" go to "gps one" tab then click on the bottom "read from phone" and check your settings to make sure they stuck (!!!Do not save anything!!!). Dial ##3424 again and click "Exit" then "OK" then soft reset.
What you need to do
The questions have been asked, and it seems that from your first post that you may not have done any flashing of your phone. I can tell you that I have flashed to the below information in my signature for the first time ever using the MicroSD card option and also followed the instructions in this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=425565
Prior to following the instructions in that thread I could get GPS Sat lock, but only after a very long time. Once I made the changes it locks on within 30 seconds at the most. So if you have not upgraded your phone I would suggest you do so. That will solve your GPS problems
Well thank you all for the replies...Yes, its on. I checked the super GPS thread for what I should do...
Since nothing seems to be working I think I will take your guys' advice and trying flashing to DCD 3.2.6. Is there a database of stock ROMs so I can at least go back if something doesn't work out?
Didn't work for me either. Fresh flash, followed the directions to the letter.
Is there a version of the Titan that shipped without the AGPS chip?

Antitux,
Nope--they all ship with the chip. Just read READ READ, and you'll get it.
Since the shadow-tech and GC14 updates, it now locks FAST. The location setting is definitely the most common reason people don't get it. Of course, you MUS unlock the GPS by running a patch or completely updating the firmware with one from here or ppc geeks.
jtg
also as shadow-tech says in his instructions be sure when you are in QPST you load to phone while on the GPSone tab. Otherwise it probably won't work.

Nope. Didn't work that time either.
Going to reflash one more time.

I am a newb but managed to get dcd 3.0.1 and radio 3.35.04 on my Verizon 6800. Everything seems to work but I have a GPS question or two.
Under System Settings>External GPS....what should the settings be? Under the Programs tab mine is on COM4. On the Hardware tab my GPS Hardware Port is set to NONE. Baud rate is 4800. On the Access tab the check is next to Manage GPS Automatically.
I am trying Google Maps .cab and have it set to use the Windows GPS settings. Is this OK or do I need to set it manually? How long does it normally take to acquire on a first run....assuming no problems with ROMS?
Thanks for your time. DCD....you ROCK!
there are dozens of threads about this... including the gps faq.
So, polite suggestion for the future (which you will see on 50% of all the threads on this site). Search, before you just post a question.
That said, it'll take up to 5 minutes, but usually a lot less than that the first time, and after it's usually faster... but that's with a clear view of the sky. your mileage may vary depending on where you are.
you don't need to touch the external gps settings, use the windows gps settings, and on google maps the default should work fine.
Good luck!
So the default settings I have should work?
I used the search and found various info and never saw the GPS FAQ. I'll search again.
Thanks for your time.
I like DCD's setup. Very clean. Nice having apps close for a change as well. I hope to contribute to this forum once I get used to this device. I just got it Thursday and started hacking on it from day one. I think I enjoy the actual hacking part more than the phone.
Found the GPS FAQ. Thanks!
I had the phone on 911 under the Locate section. Set it to on. Gonna go test it now.
HOLY SMOKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
IT WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nailed me in my driveway. Took only about 1 minute to get 5 or 6 satellites. Fantastic!!!!!!!!!
You gotta wonder why they disable this in the first place. The sweetest part is that I'm not paying VZW for a GPS feature since I have unlimited data. I have a buddy who got the same phone the same day and he said he was disappointed that it didn't have GPS. I'll be seeing him in an hour since his son plays on my little league team. I'm gonna have fun with this! I'll make him give me 20 bucks for the update and then I'm sending it to DCD and friends. Seriously!
Everything is working perfectly on my unit.
Okay, i just got a HTC ppc-6800 from US CELLULAR, i dont know what the problem is, mabye something to do with internet sharing, idk, but i just installed the WMWIFI router software on the mogul and it starts up and then finally says FATAL ERROR ????? Does anybody know what im doing wrong? is there any settings i need to change for this to work??? and i do have my wifi turned on.

I don't know for sure. I only get it to work half the time myself. But I do know for a fact that its been known to be very buggy on our phones. There are a few other apps out there but they just cost too much in my opinon. Someone has a free-ware app but the configuration is best left to a tenured senior network architect. I forget what its called it is so difficult to use.
lol, yea iknow, its will us cellular so i didnt know if that had anything to do with it, and if they disabled something in the phone? but do you know what some of the other more exensive ones are named? i would like to at least mabye look them up.
yeah man i had that fatal error stuff too. you need to install ICS before wmwifirouter will work. i can track down a cab if you need it

Damn it! I didint realize he was on a STOCK rom. I would have told him that as well.
I feel stock ROMS dont belong in this forum! Please move this post to the main thread.
Thank you.
I am not a moderator but he will agree.
Are you using the very latest WMWifiRouter? I purchased it a few months ago and it works flawlessly, but when I tried an older version it always crashed out with Fatal Errors.
I have a USCC 6800 as well, tho I've modded mine, however from the factory the only thing that is disabled/missing is MMS. ICS should work right out of the box, so I don't believe he will need a cab for this.
They are running extrememly old radios/roms tho, like ver 1 rom and ver 1.x radios....
I highly recommend you look into upgrading your phone to a newer radio and custom rom as it will dramatically improve your phone. Mostly you will get RevA EVDO when it comes to your area. Also GPS works and the phone seems to run a lot faster.
Do a lot of reading first, mainly learn to use QPST to back up your phone's programming and after flashing write it back to the phone, verify your EPST info is correct as I just found out recently that mine wasn't and this was why my EVDO didn't work. Other than these 2 things, the rest of the guides on how to flash your phone should get you thru the rest of it.
Any questions, feel free to PM me and I can point you in the right directions.

PHASE II COMPLETE
PHASE III IN PROGRESS (AGPS FIX FOR VZW TP)
UPDATED 12/25/08
Please read completely. I really don't want to have posts asking about things stated in this post.
First and foremost.... This fix is to be still considered beta at the present time. I WILL NOT be held responsible for any damage to your device or any charges from you carrier if you happen to be in roaming because of this.
Phase II is finally here and I know I've been asked many times on what Phase II meant. Well I now have that answer. The newest release is Verizon PRI 1.46.002 coded to allow full programming updates , full PRL updates NO banner issues and last but not least .... .... oh ya .... GPS .... "takes a bow on this one"
Hope that answers the questions I kinda reframed from answering.
Here we go again
IF SOMEONE WHO HAS NOT APPLIED MY FIX BEFORE ON A VERIZON TOUCH PRO AND WOULD BE WILLING TO DO ONE MINOR EXPERIMENT. SKIP DOWNLOADING PPST1.46.CAB IN STEP ONE AND THEN SKIP STEPS 2 THRU 5. THEN POST IF IT HAS UNLOCKED THE GPS. IF IT DIDN'T UNLOCK, APPLY THE COMPLETE FIX AS PRESENTED WITH NO DEVIATIONS.
FOR ALL OTHERS, STEP 2 IS MEANT TO ROLL BACK THE CHANGES MADE BY PHASE I OF THIS PROJECT. THAT MEANS YOUR PRI WILL BE GOING BACK TO STOCK OEM. NO HARD RESETS ARE NEEDED UNLESS YOU WANT TO CLEAR YOUR DEVICE OF ALL OTHER "FIX" INSTALLS. I WOULD SUGGEST INSTALLING PPST1.46.CAB BEFORE THE HARD RESET. I PERFORMED THAT ACTUAL PROCEDURE ONCE I COMPLETED PHASE II OF THIS PROJECT.
1. download lllboredlll_VZW_GPS_Fix_v2.cab AND PPST1.46.cab and put on your storage card or any folder on your device
2. install PPST1.46.cab
3. use gsfinder,total commander or File Explorer to navigate to \windows\ppst.exe
4. click on ppst.exe and go thru the prompts
5. reset your device as needed
6. NOW install lllboredlll_VZW_GPS_Fix_v2.cab
7. use gsfinder,total commander or File Explorer to navigate to \windows\ppst.exe
8. reset your device as needed
9. Dial *228 option 1
(the above step is the steps I did, option 2 also works but I needed to prove it takes a full update without rewriting data)
10. reset your device
11. Install HTC GPS Tool if needed
12. I would suggest a soft reset... do what you want on this one
13. Open up HTC GPS Tool. Set Chip to Q 7500 and mode to Cold Start (left soft key for those who dont know) then set baud to 4800 and open port.
There will be a registry entry made from this install with the GC's AGPS Values for future use or others testing use. Please understand that my device is not capable of AGPS for some reason. When it's figured out the "GPS Fix" will be updated.
Also make sure that your device settings are right.
Settings >> SYSTEM >> External GPS
Programs Tab- GPS Program Port: Com4
Hardware Tab- GPS Hardware Port: None, Baud Rate: 4800
Access Tab- Checkmark on "Manage GPS automatically"
Make sure you turn your location on thru your phone settings. Some ROM's do not have it enabled by default.
If you take my research and improve on it all I ask is that you atleast give me credit for the discovery. I've spent a ton of hours working with NV files and PRI's.
Hope everyone enjoys.....

can't believe this is so dead ... lol... oh well

well forget it .. i forgot that Verizon were locked and i thought this was to fix lags and so forth and to improve .. well my bad..
Rest assured Bored, your efforts are greatly appreciated. I myself will try this fix when i get out of work. as it is, version 1 never worked for me. no matter how long I fiddled with the HTC utility. I got plenty of satellites used, but none ever fixed, nor did any gps program fix.
Hi lllboredlll - thanks again and general question
I've been following the ppcgeeks thread, btw I would guess everyone on xda is also on ppcgeeks hence the quiet thread here.
I'm one of the stock ROM users whose VZW Touch Pro uses the satellites but doesn't fix right away. They will eventually fix if I leave the HTC utility running and start driving so in every case I can get TomTom connected but it can vary anywhere from 10 to 30 minutes (not really sure on the longer period, that's the longest trip I make, its always fixed by the end.
What's the difference between used and fixed?
Soft reset and immediately going into the HTC GPS app seems to make things go quicker.
Doug
Try installing the Quick GPS Utility and run it once a week. This provides sat data that may help lock times.

New ROM from Scott and lllboredlll working for slow fixing touch pro
I first had much trouble with the stock ROM and lllboredlll's gps unlock. It could work but took sometimes 20 minutes to fix. I unocked the phone and installed Scott's ROM from the day before Christmas. At first I thought I hadn't reached success because while inside it acted like it did with the stock ROM and the GPS unlock. Outside and in the car my XV6850 TomTom 7 is locking quicker than my 6700 with a Globalsat BT-359 receiver. Usually in 20 seconds.
Thanks again to Scott and lllboredlll!

I have an OEM I was going to bake into ROM. Wasnt sure if that helped or not. Didint want to turn the thread the other way but it did seem to help. Wasnt sure if it was placebo or not.
If you havent found it I can try to CAB it up from OEM. Looks simple... Let m know...

See what TEAMWORK does!!!!
I successfully got the gps working on my first vz 6800 and loved it. Thank you everybody that provides information to make this possible. Due to a broken external antenna plug i had to get a new vz 6800.
I can not for the life of me get the gps on the new phone working. This is what i have done so far.
Rom Version: dcd 3.3.4
Rom Date: 11/09/08
Radio: 3.42.30
I dont know if these mean anything but

Hardware 0003
PRL 51251
Pri 2.03_002
Browser MSIE 6.0
I went through the Verizon vz 6800 aGps fix everything made sense up to When the phone reboots, install GC Verizon aGPS.cab
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thank you
There many of us having the same problem. Sounds like Verizon is up to something.
The agps servers are probably down or verizon changed the ips.
Other things that got me to this point
I forgot to post that:
I was running the radio 3.35.04 for a while because i could not get the 3.42.50 or 3.42.30 to load. It was cool to see the sprint logo go across the verizon screen.
After finding the post that helped me I went to the 1.20 olipro then got the 3.42.30 to load and went back to the 2.40 olipro
I hope that verizon is not going to figure out how to disable our ability to use the agps. The google maps work a lot better than vz navigator.
ips change?
how does one find out if the ips is changed and can the phone be modified to work again?

We are talking about this here.
I know this thread is for the MR1 but the solution, if any, would be the same. We may not have the instant locks if the IP changed, hopefully it is just an intermittent problem.
I don't know yet, but Telus settings seem to fix aGPS. Set these in QPST and registry.
For Valhalla:
Then just change these and Soft Reset:
HKLM\Software\Valhalla Legends\GPSServer\Mode=2 (the original value)
HKLM\Software\Valhalla Legends\GPSServer\PDEAddress=5C8BC6D8
HKLM\Software\Valhalla Legends\GPSServer\PDEPort=8889
Thank Humpa at PPC Geeks for the above.
-------------------------------
For Custom Roms
216.198.139.92
8889
IP
PDE
EnableAGPS = 1
GPS Mode = 4 (2 would probably work too)
When you got your new phone, did it already have the MR1 upgrade applied? If I remember correctly, you have to downgrade to an older ROM with an older PRI and then flash to a custom ROM. Otherwise, you can use the Valhalla Legends CAB. Lately, I haven't been able to get a fix on any satellites, so you might be having that problem.
continuing problems with xv6800 gps
Hi everyone, I just registered to discuss ongoing problems I have been having with my gps. Let me give you a little backround.
Several months ago, I noticed that VZ nav was available on my xv6800. I had wanted that when I first purchsed, but was told it probably wouldn't be available. At that time , I purchased a Garmin gps package that included a bluetooth gps receiver and the XT 20 maps program. I found out that in order for VZ nav to work, I needed to upgrade to MR1. Then I read that once I did this and instaled the Valhalla CAB workaround I could use a third party GPS app. WOOHOO! I did and it worked great......for about a month.
Since then I have gone through 3 6800's thanks to some fancy footwork with the Verizon tech staff and everytime, I can get my GPS to work with the ValHalla workaround for anywhere from over a month on the first one to just 2 hours after I received my latest one 3 days ago. In fact, I wasn't able to get the new one to work at all until I called and added VZ Nav service. I had already thought that maybe they had sent down a kill command on the other two to close this hole. (greedy !!/[email protected]#$!s)
To prove my theory about them closing the workaround, I cancelled the service an hour later and after restarting my PDA, I no longer get a signal when using Windows Live or my Garmin software. This is the same problem I was having with the first 2 replacments, but it always took a few days before it stopped working. This is the first time I added VZ Nav to the mix.
After reading other boards about people having similar problems I figured I would tell what I have been through.
I had it working great when I first did it, but after a month or so, it stopped working and thats when I had them send me a replacment.
I hope this helps someone figure out how to get around this latest roadblock and come up with an alternative workaround. But at this point in time, I have loaded this patch enough times to say with complete certainty that the Valhalla CAB fix is no longer a valid workaround. If someone smarter than me could figure out what happens when you add the actual VZ Nav app, then recreate it when it is cancelled then that may solve the problem.
Just my two cents, but I am a professional Field service technician for HP and feel I confident in my troubleshooting
My radio and software are 3.37.78 and 3.57. The last 2 replacments came already pre-installed unlike the first one that I had to go through the boot up. I have reset it from boot twice and nothing has helped.

Yes i know not another GPS thread i do apologize but every other GPS thread doesn't touch on the subject Windows 7. Which seems to very limited in guides and such (I miss xp it was so much easier) but those days are gone, and now i have to make due with windows 7 which isn't half bad. My issue is I'am using
Version 3.2 Heavy (WM 6.5) *WM7 inspired UI*
Build 21885
Radio 3.42.50
First question is this build even gps compatible im sure it is
Second ? the radio im using is the GPS enables radio right?
Third if all the above are correct why wont my phone get a lock on any sat's
ive used Gps viewer wich comes with the rom and it sees the gps on com port 4 but it doesnt seem to lock on any satilites
again im sorry for posting on a topic that has alot of Info but im straight confused if i missed a step or something plz dont flame if this is a bad topic remove it but i dont care to argue with anyone ty
I can help you out but I need a little more info about your phone. Are you by any chance using a Verizon or Telus branded Mogul? (xv6800, p4000)
Also what carrier are you using?
Its probably either you aGPS settings arent set correctly in service programming or the GPS on your device is locked altogether. Either way I have a fix for you, just let me know some more info.
Yes i am using verizon xv6800 with verizon i have followed the qpst steps and the tellus gps cab install still to no avail i apreciate any help you may offer
ANd ya i think your right that its locked altogether i went from the verizon rom w/ wm 6.1 to your rom i posted above some ppl say u need to go to a leaked rom first the to custom wich i have no clue where this "leaked" rom is
My gpsOne info is

On my Verizon XV6800 the IP Address is; 216.198.139.92. Try that and see if it works.
ill give it a shot wonder if i miss typed it we'll see

Just follow these instructions to a T, do not skip anything, do not miss anything. And read it several times until you understand what needs to be done. Just be patient and take your time. Also another tip is dont let your phone sit to long in bootloader or you can error out while trying to flash. Put the phone in bootloader literally right before you are going to flash something.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3687027&postcount=144
And do not use any valhalla, or telus agps CABs, just follow my instructions perfectly. And on my Verizon ROMs the aGPS settings are as follows. Make sure yours are the same in QPST and after all is said and done your GPS should work like a champ. Remember (DO NOT SKIP ANYTHING IN THE LINK ABOVE!!)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\SUPL AGPS]
"ServerPort"=8888
"ServerIP"="66.174.95.132"
If you are going to use the Telus or Alltel Server instead of the settings above, then make sure you make the registry location the same as in QPST. Its all up to you, just get your GPS unlocked first using my instructions.

Thats a good idea if you are going to be messing with Custom ROMs and so forth, dont forget to fully update your Operating System and then install Active Sync first then HTC windows drivers second. All found in my Unlock Tools Directory.
Followed it all still didnt work think im beat i do have an ambicom bluetooth gps device works just fine just realy hate my electronics being locked down i tap out on this 1 ty you all for the help

Thats why you should wait and test before you post. Especially if trying to test inside an apartment.. It is well known that for GPS you want a clear view of the sky for a fast GPS lock. Inside it could take up to 10 minutes depending on the circumstances or cold, warm, hot start.. Glad I could help you out and get it working.
you are 100% correct and i should have known that i appreciate your time
