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.

Any way to encrypt signal (even really simply)?
I know when I go to this convention next week all the bored people are going to steal my bandwidth (VZW dialup is not fast enough for anyone but me).
I am pretty sure there was a way to configure WEP, tho I have only gotten WMWifiRouter to work one time. And it was because there were no other AP's in the area. For some reason if I am in an area where there is an AP but it's secured, my phone keeps prompting me to connect to it, and if I dismiss the message, it never properly initializes where any other device can connect to it.
No errors show up on the screen, it just doesn't show up as an available wireless AdHoc network. I've tried running the latest trial version, and the version that is in DCD's kitchen, same problem on both.
Maybe I'm just not smart enough to figure it out, or maybe my brother's PDA and my Ipod just aren't compatible with it. I got it to work 1 time, and it was with my laptop.

I've been using USB Modem with my Sprint Touch Pro for the last week and I'm having a major problem with it.
When uploading images via FTP, after one or two jpg files are uploaded, the upstream speed diminishes to almost nothing. It does this every time without fail.
The workaround is just disconnecting and reconnecting, but that's a pain.
Anyone else having this problem? It seems like it's some sort of switch being tripped in the phone or by Sprint when it sees that a large amount of data is being uploaded...just a guess though.

Hi,
Strange problem, I don't know if this will solve your problem.
But you should definately try a programm called "wmrouter" (google...)
This will turn your TP in a wireless router, which is really easy to use.
greetings,
Wout
have you tried the registry hacks for tethering? there's a cab if you don't want to do it yourself, but perhaps it'll fix your problem. You can do a search on here or go here for other touch pro essentials as well: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=42730
The edits are under "internet" on there. goodluck.

he's right. that app is great and also lets you connect your cpu wirelessly. only problem is that it drains your phone faster cause it uses wifi. but you won't have disconnections... you could try the registry hacks thread on that link i gave you first and if that doesn't work you should pay for wifi router or pdanet.
hey if you resolve this issue please update us on how u did it.. thanks
Wow, thanks for the help guys. Problem solved.
First off, USB Modem simply doesn't work right on the Touch Pro, so I'm uninstalling it. With the pre-installed Internet Sharing software, there's no need for USB Modem anyway and it cuts out the old step of having to dial #777 to connect.
Thanks for the suggestion Unflushablelog. I downloaded and installed the Internet Sharing tethering hack cab file, fired up Internet sharing and blam, full Rev A speed and no diminished upload speed and best of all, no #777 dial up. Awesome. Better solution than I could have hoped for.
As for WMWifiRouter, I'm sure that would work too but I prefer the USB tether.

I just bought a touch pro and im waiting for sprint to ship it, i got the everything plus plan will sprint slap me with a huge bill for tethering?

i think only the phone as a modem add on to the plan covers tethering... but that's why people use that registry fix... to make sure it uses the sprint line (which is what simply everything uses - regular unlimited data). we should be getting billed for it, but we don't. just try not to spend a lot of time tethering and you'll be fine (basically you don't want to raise any flags by having abnormal data charges on your account cause then sprint might look into it)... people have been doing this for years and that's always their recommendation.. i've never heard anyone say don't do it. it's something that sprint tries to capitalize on by selling an unnecessary extra when it should be free, whether you have the simply everything plan or just the regular power vision with internet
Unflushable could you provide some more info about this reg fix please?

I know there are probally Diamond threads about this but I have been told that what Sprint did to disable the FM Radio on the Pro is not the same. Has anyone figured out a hack or any way to enable the FM Radio? I have the headphones from my mogul which I'm told will work!
Thanks
I've heard a few people think they are close, but nobody has actually done it yet.
over at ppcgeeks some have managed to get it to lock to stations, but without audio, I think it'll be a matter of time before they get it working, just like what happened with the GPS on the Mogul (Titan)

That was no hack. Via HTC to Sprint it was first simply a leak and then an official release of an OS ROM & appropriate radio with the GPS drivers.
For an active FM radio on the CDMA Touch Pro it'll come to us either in the form of the hack or a more mundane delivery as with the Titan GPS by a carrier including its functional state in their ROM. Multiple carriers have now released the phone so the chances of the latter are increased.

Yeah, I know, I just meant that people didn't believe the Titan had a GPS chip, and with a little patience were proven wrong. I really do think that there are some brilliant minds looking into this, and the phone is really new, so they may be able to get it working.
Let's hope so! I'm fairly sure that it'll happen.

help with lost registry key for fm radio
hey guys, i was doing some searching in the registry yesterday, and i found another folder containing FMS information, the path is HKLM\Drivers\Active\93 , not sure if this helps anyone in figuring this thing out. however, i was also trying to edit one of the values in that folder, and accidentally deleted everything. if someone would be so kind to post what the values are in there folder i would appreciate it, so i can keep tryn to get this thing working too.

I just looked at my Sprint TP, stock ROM, and I don't have a 93 at that path, stops at 90. Sorry!

I had some FMS data in \Active\85.
I have searched through literally thousands of threads on this and have tried numerous things. Is there anybody who knows EXACTLY what to do to make this work? I have an Alltel Touch Pro with the MR1 update and recently flashed the 1.03.15F radio. I have location turned on and External GPS set to com4 None and 4800, with managed by windows also checked. I would very much like to use Google Maps and have had it working on previous Touch Pros. I am not a complete moron but I have so much misinformation in my head that I just truly don't know what else to try. Thanks in advance to anybody who can help me.
Had the same prob when i first got mine flash the radio to 1.03.09v from verizon and make sure your location is on.

Same boat, flashed to the VZ radio, and all works now.
Thanks guys I'll definitely try that now.
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
All 9 checks in the boxes
PDE IP address: 216.198.139.92
PDE port: 8889
PDE Transport: IP
Position calculation: PDE
I hate the fact verizon locks up these awsome phones there dwarfing the potential even though the xv6800 is abit older it seems to have a huge following
GPS
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
Ya i had the 92 just miss type ty for pointing that out
GPS
Also my Position calculation is set to Mobile not PDE.

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.

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
