Dhiraj still you are far ahead of many techies like me who are all thumbs when it comes to new gadgets and technology @ Shantanu, I have found this build to be very stable (just once or twice I had to do a soft reset as the Touch Pro was unresponsive) and as far as the lag is concerned, I am not the best judge as this is my first high-end mobile I am using (the earlier one was a Nokia 3105 which I used for more than 4 years ).

Dhiraj, it was set to OFF by default and unless I am mistaken, even in Ankit's case it would have been set to OFF on default.. correct Ankit?

It is Mighty ROM (Windows 6.5) Build 21840.5.0.60

Finally!!! I have got my GPS up and running and that too without having to do a hard reset. The issue was a really simple as I had not enabled the Location Settings to be ON. By default, this option seems to kept at OFF. Ankit, (and for others who are still having problem in updating QuickGPS or if they are not getting a satellite fix) please view this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445696 I think this should fix the problem. Thanks to everyone who tried to help me fix this issue.

Dhiraj, for me the GPS functionality was not working right from the time I received the handset from Sadikk. Of course now that I have the handset for over 2 weeks, I have installed various applications. I'll now uninstall all the softwares which I have installed, do a hard-reset and then find out if the GPS is working. Thanks for the pointers

Sorry for updating after a long interval.. Had some family emergency, albeit a good one Now @ Dr. Muf, as per your suggestion, I tried to go into the debug mode by typing ##33284# and it goes into the "FieldTrial" and asks for a password. I spoke with Sadik and he gave me a suggestion to use a default password "000000" but that did not work. So how to go into the debug mode and what could be the default password? @ Dhiraj, i have been trying various means and methods to get the gps fix, but its simply not working.. Will re-installation of the ROM work? @ Santanu, GPS is using COM-4..

Friends, i tried almost everything that you all have mentioned and here are my observations: - As Nitin had mentioned, I installed GPSTest and the window shows "GPS Starting up", and FIX is ID & HDOP is 50.00. It remains like this over over 3-4 mins under open sky. Does it take longer than that for first time setup? - Regarding QuickGPS, whenever I press the download button, the progress bar shows the download is in progress and when it almost reaches 100% it gives an error message saying "Connection Failed. Please try again later". I tried the downloading directly as well as via PC, but I get the same error message. I am going to Mumbai over the weekend.. Let me see if I can get the gps working either in the expressway or in Mumbai.. Will then update..

Hello, I just recently bought HTC TP from Sadik last week and I take this oppurtunity to thank Sadik for he did all the required settings in the phone to enable Internet connectivity. Now I require the GPS functionality and when I tried accessing it via the Google maps, it keeps searching for satellites and finally gives a message saying "Weak GPS Signal" and says that my GPS reciever is having trouble tracking GPS satellites. I keep the "Data Connection" ON while Wi-Fi & Bluetooth connections are kept OFF and the ROM is Mighty ROM & WM 6.5. My GPS settings are: - Managed by Windows - COM0 - 4800 In one of posts from Dhiraj, he had mentioned that "For Sprint original rom kindly also install HP_GPS.cab before running destinator (download from Sprint Original ROM topic) and also ensure that GPS is activated in QPST as per dummies guide". Now can somebody guide me: - on what is QPST - whether I need install HP_GPS.cab (also from where will i get this cab file) and - how to get my GPS working Thanking everyone in advance. Anant Iyer
