it would probably work if you flashed a custom rom that is gps enabled with provisionings for your carrier. however, after unlocking I recommend flashing a carrier enabled GPS rom - see "GPS capable carrier roms" in post #1 here, flash the one for your carrier, make sure GPS works, then flash android to nand again.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
ok, i'm still getting gps searching while I have a lock in google nav, no recovery, with the new .nbh from dzo 11-2-2010.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
GPS may be disabled in the NV settings, try this:

start a console and type

echo -e "AT+HTC_GPSONE=4\r" > /dev/smd0
logcat -b radio
Use ^C (dpad centre + C) to exit from logcat

It should say something like:

+HTC_GPSONE: 3

3 means it's disabled, 0 and 1 are enabled and 2 is enabled using AGPS (I think).

do

echo -e "AT+HTC_GPSONE=0\r" > /dev/smd0

to enable it (or =2 if AGPS works for your carrier).
[Touch CDMA Android Development] drewden123:
I get "unable to open log device. Permission denied"
[Touch CDMA Android Development] dzo:
type:

su

before the logcat command
[Touch CDMA Android Development] drewden123:
Well I trid setting it to 1 and 2 and neither worked. Here is what I've done:

Unlocked with 2.31 coke

Flashed Verizon stock 3.37.78 radio

Flashed nfsfans rom

Applied Verizon agps provisioning cab

Installed Valhalla gps server cab

GPS didn't work in winmo, so I flashed to nomorootfs nand for myns build using opengl nbh from 1-30-10

Entered console commands (echo -e...etc)

No gps locks whatsoever
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
ok, so it is a verizon problem. verizon is the most difficult to get gps working on, looks like you've done your reading. you need to go back to win mo and get it working there, that will be far easier than messing around with settings within android. it is a pain on verizon, and I can't help you any further; find the forums on this and post there, you'll get more responses from people who have dealt with it a bunch.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] drewden123:
Will do. Thank you very much and thanks dzo.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] drewden123:
Tatnai, as you saw that I was having GPS difficulties no matter what I tried, I finally got it to work by following these instructions to a T: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=533639&highlight=verizon+agps

If anybody cannot get GPS to work no matter what, follow that and you will have it within 4 hours most likely. Then flash/install the very latest Android files and GPS WILL work. Thanks for all your help.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] tatnai:
glad you got that figured out, verizon gps is a . . . wait, I can't say that word here, huh.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] drewden123:
haha yes it is. I would probably put that link somewhere in your FAQ just in case someone runs into an unknown issue with GPS and wants to start all over like I did.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] typolad:
Crzy, insane question... would this libgps solution work with the Touch Pro?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] jnadke:
No, this is just the part that gives the data to Android. The kernel still would need to be modified to get at the data.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] lilkrazzie:
Hi guys, new to the forums here. I've had my touch for two years now and being able to put android on the phone is awesome. I am currently running your eclair and it is doing real good so far. GPS works and I am going to upgrade the lib file and zimage file to update the gps files in a bit, got those files from some other thread around here. One question though, does anybody else's phone freezes when you try to shut down or reboot? I think I saw someone mention but didn't see a fix for that or anything.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] drewden123:
Well, this isn't quite the right thread for that question but...I'm pretty sure that's a well-documented issue with the latest eclair build. I'd check in the thread where you got your eclair build (msmisson's?) for an answer
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mrkite38:
Still o/t, but drewden is correct. I believe vilord has fixed reboot and is still working on shutdown, but I don't think he's synced his changes yet.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] jnadke:
I believe the eclair build already uses this latest libgps.

I noted it in the first post:

"Most newer NoMoRootfs (andboot) builds should already have this cooked in!"

I could be wrong though. If GPS isn't working for you with a kernel dated after 1/28/10, then you probably don't have the right libgps (v5.0).

You can push it using:

adb shell mount -o remount,rw /system

adb push libgps.so /system/lib/libgps.so
[Touch CDMA Android Development] PaceyWhitter:
Anyone figure out a fix for the losing satellites "searching for GPS" problem yet?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] lilkrazzie:
Oh wow, so sorry, posted the wrong message to the wrong thread, they are probably telling me I am off topic on the other thread as well :(, but thanks, I will try pushing it.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] polyrhythmic:
A lot of Kaiser users (including myself) are reporting GPS lockups... Is anyone else still having problems? I haven't been able to lock down the cause of it yet... perhaps it is build related?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] jnadke:
Lockups as in... Phone locks up? Or GPS and Google Maps/Nav stops working?

If it's the latter, try to make it lock up, keep the app open until you get home. Then plug it into your computer and check dmesg.

As data comes in, it should be printed to the dmesg logs. This tells me coarsely where it's locking up.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] jnadke:
I haven't had any issues with GPS v5, has anyone had any loss of GPS or freezing issues? I finally got around to running Android via NAND, so I use it 24/7 now.

I'd fix it if I could reproduce it. I'd hate to re-write the GPS driver to be more robust and have it not fix the issue.

Also, bump to people people from getting confused with the old thread.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] smarcin:
Is GPS v5 cooked into dzo's 2-26-10 zImage and .nbh ? Thanks.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] hexto:
I always have issues with my GPS and have since switching to Android. For me its weird. Whenever I switch to a new build I get perfect GPS once. After the first time it'll never work again. The last time I switched was to Myn's build and I used Google Nav from Vermont to CT (over 150 miles) without issue. Thought the issue was no more but I tried to use Google Maps a few days later and nothing. Hasn't worked since. I recently switched to radio 3.42.50 from 3.37.77 hoping for better GPS but no such luck.

I just don't understand why it only works after a fresh install. Weird.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] jnadke:
The zImage support for GPS v5 is in 1/18/10 onward.

The libgps v5 is in pretty much all new System builds. Myn, Plemen, Msmission, vilord all build it in.

hey xda developers. I was wondering if anyone could make an fmylife.com app. fmylife.com is a site where people tell their embarrassing moments. this site is hilarius, but unfortunately they only have apps for the android and the iphone, and i was wondering if anyone could make an app for my htc touch pro. if you could it would be very appreciated. reply back on this thread and i will hook you up with details.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] summonkey:
I found this game and been playing it for awhile. It was on the Iphone but it has a android port. So you can run around and kill all the Iphone people (LOL). Anyways you can use my referral code to get 1000 gold after you do the tutorial. Anyways its simple but fun.

Use Code lunnf

Also, if you want 1,000 gold here is what you do:

When you first begin the game, hit the Menu button and then tap "Profile." In the Profile page, tap the red button in the upper right hand corner and then "Enter Referral Code." Type in "lmali" without the quotes. This is my referral code. If you do not want to use mine just scroll to the section below. You'll get 1,000 Gold once you complete the tutorial. Be sure to enter the code in right away. After the tutorial is done, you won't be able to enter it in anymore.

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] staulkor:
Dont you have to pay real money to play that game.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] summonkey:
No money required to play.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] brandenk:
This game is BS, you need "food" to do things like level and the only way to get food is to buy it WITH REAL MONEY or recruit other people. Its fun for a day or two but quickly gets frustrating when you realize you are going to either have to pay, recruit others, or stop playing.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] m00moo:
the guy must get some kind of bonus for refferals, thus he is spamming his code here and there. I've heard this game requires real money to play, but the guys just playing you about you dont need to.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] brandenk:
Well I mean technically its not a scam, or at least its a scam hidden inside of a seemingly well meaning game. The problem is that in the game there are 2 major items to collect, food and gold. The gold is obvious, and you get it from many types of kills or actions but the food you cannot get without paying or recruiting another player. This is where they get you.

Currently I have spent about 2 hours adventuring and am at the point of leveling for the first time but I cannot level and get my skill point until I pay 80 food and I only have 77. If I want to continue playing I will either have to recruit someone else, buy food with real money, or sell something for food on the games market which is purely player driven so there are no default prices on basic items, just whatever people want to change.

Either way it has great potential but I think the publishers are the scam artists using this system to force players to recruit or spend money, either way the sole purpose of the game is to profit the devs.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Gilby3000:
@brandenk

I am one of the developers/publishers of Parallel Kingdom and I would like to respond to several of your statements.

"the food you cannot get without paying or recruiting another player. This is where they get you." - You can easily acquire Food in any of the trade posts in any city in the Parallel Kingdom world. There is absolutely no need to buy Food for cash to be successful in the game, you can trade and get any amount you want.

"I think the publishers are the scam artists using this system to force players to recruit or spend money" - The business model behind Parallel Kingdom is no different than any other "free to play" MMO. In our minds, at least our game allows people to try it out before they spend any money. We give them 300 free Food with their new character (it costs 80 to level so that is more than enough for 3 levels). And this model allows players to do a little more work in the game collecting resources so they can trade with other players that prefer to spend more money on the game.

"the sole purpose of the game is to profit the devs" - As much as I would like to say that I make games solely for the love of seeing people enjoy them, I still need to feed my family. We have been developing this game for over 2 years. The game is on the third version (Age of Emergence) which just debuted in November 2009. This is the first version that even had a way for us to make any kind of money on the game. The first two versions (the first year and a half of the game's life) had no way for players to spend money even if they wanted to. I'm sorry but eventually a company has to get some revenue or it simply can't support itself or its games any more.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] brandenk:
If you are serious about this game then I would suggest a few things since I have worked for a few game companies in the past. One game I would as a solid free/paid model game is Free Realms by Sony.

First you need a store with set prices that is not player controlled. Sell basic things like lvl 1 weapons and armor, boots, gloves, all that stuff for set prices and allow players to buy or sell. This would help first time players get into the game more quickly because it would be reliable and familiar. Giving the player control is key instead of having them rely on other players.

Turn the store into an auction house. This is where all prices are controlled by the player. This way players can craft items, upgrade, and sell them to other players interested in special items. Keeping the noob market and hardcore market separate helps a lot in keeping both spectrum of players happy.

Give us a screen that shows equipped items and not all the items we currently possess. Using the items list to figure out what you are wearing is annoying.

If I kill a deer I should get food! Food is not something you should be charging players for. Going off of what you said I would think people "pay for" this game because of 2 reasons. Either they are the total noob and want some help or they are a l33t haxor. So going off that assumption it would seem like good things to charge for would be special weapons and armor or rare crafting items that can lead to better weapons/armor than you can build or find in the game.

Either way like I said in my first response, I have played this game well over 2 hours so there is something there, but there is a lot of room for improvement before this is going to be my go-to-game while I am mobile.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] summonkey:
Yes I get a bonus from refering people. You can play and get your gear up without needing food. You can buy food from other players. Its not all bad. Not saying this game will rock your socks off but you can still play it without buying food and get most of the features of it.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] archboy69:
It is interesting at first but yeah, you have to spend 'real' money to get supplies hire people for instance. Uninstalled.

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] xmfreak:
I've started playing two days ago and it's OK but it's not worth it. Food is too expensive, and the game is not good enough to pay that much for it.

I'm sorry but market is full of free games more addictive than this one.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] voivodsm336:
This is assuming somebody is willing to spend real money on Food and then turn around and sell it for gold or whatever.

THIS NEVER HAPPENS, so he was correct your HAVE to buy food with real money to progress further in the game.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] lunacyinc1:
I have been playing this game for over a month now. I am @ level 19 and I haven't paid any real money on this game. I get all of my food from sales of items I collect in this game and a couple referalls. There is a kind of price regulation in the game set by the players. For example, for 1 food you pay 100 gold. There are people who do nothing but sell food at the trade posts in the game. Also, ask around on the help chat to find out what certain items are worth either in food or gold. I recently sold 150 wood on the game for 8000gold and 75 food. If you do want to start playing this game, I would suggest you talk to people in help chat. Also look for my name, Lunacyinc, in the help chat, and ask me any questions you have. I would be happy to help. And one last thing, don't believe the promises about free gold or weapons from referal codes or bonus codes. These "bonus" codes do not exist. Its all just a scam for those people to get more food.

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] ShoelessRob:
I've been playing this game for almost 900 days now. I literally started on day one when both this game and android were both brand new. I've quit for months at a time but always get drawn back. I've helped to implement features, test things, make suggestions, and lead a few of the biggest groups to ever exist in the game.

This said I'd like to mention that I've never paid a penny on parallel kingdom, or PK as many call it. It's a great game that has more social aspects to succeeding than most games do. If you can't master the social aspect of help, friends, and territory it won't matter how much money you spend... you won't get far. If you can then you've found the real value in PK.

I'm also not posting my referral code because firstly I don't roll like that and secondly i don't need any food or to spend money on the game to be successful at it.

In game name is Caern if you need any help getting started.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] astraelraen:
I've played this game for about 30 days now and haven't spent a single dime.

You can trade for food at reasonable rates through the trade posts and it isn't that hard to get gold to trade for food. If you use your food wisely like the tutorial tells you to do, you will not need to trade for food until you are about level 10 or so.

At that point you will have either found a good hunting spot where you can make good gold/hour or you will find good resources from NPCs that you can sell in the trade post for food/gold.

Sometimes it seems a little tedious, but it is fun.

everyone here is wrong except for gilby a dev of parallel kingdom.

HERE IS A DESCRIPTION ON THIS SUBJECT AS OF 2014

parallel kingdom IS NOT MADE FOR THE DEVS TO SCAM

ITS NOT THEIR FAULTS IF YOUR A LAZY [MENTION=237736]SS[/MENTION] WHO DOESNT WANT TO WORK ON GETTING 20000 GOLD TO BUY 80 FOOD gold prices for food were actually way lower than that for 80 food

I STARTED IN 2012 WITH NO MENTOR FOR HELP. I ASKED OTHERS AND GOT FOOD ON MY OWN WITOUT USING ANY OF MY UNITED STATES DOLLARS

you never defame this game,its company,and its devs.

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] FumbleNuts:
I have been playing 980 days

I have never payed money for food. Food is like anything else in Parallel Kingdom. You can buy it with gold, sell it for gold, or give it to noobs. And noob weapons are free. Kill trolls and troodonts to get swords, spears, and armor, then upgrade them with the gold you just got from the kills. Ask for help in help chat and get advice or join a kingdom and maybe get free better weapons. I give away leveled stuff all the time.

And if you are hard up for food and have no time to hunt, do free downloads to get free food, or watch videos. I <3 tapjoy.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jzhyok:
I love using WWE ROMs but I have to read/type Chinese on my phone since most of my friends are Chinese. By searching on the Internet, I made a Chinese support pack by myself. Seeing there are some threads talking about Chinese support, I would like to share my work with all of you.

(I've checked it again and again to make sure it enables Chinese display with min change to the system, while other methods like installing CEStar will be a big project.)

To enable Chinese displaying on your PPC, you must have:

1, a WinCE.nls that supports GB/Big5 encoding(Chinese encoding);

2, a font that includes Chinese characters.

I have packed the above stuff into 2 cabs.

BasicSupport.cab installs a WinCE.nls extracted from Hong Kong Official Chinese ROM to your \Windows folder and set your "Region" to "Chinese(PRC)" by default(it won't affact English displaying).

For Traditional Chinese users, please set your Region to "Chinese(TW/HK/Macao)". This step is to enable GB/Big5 on your phone to display non-unicode Chinese characters.

FontDiamondJH.cab includes a font(微软正黑) from HK Official CHT Diamond ROM that includes 99% of both Simplified & Traditional Chinese characters.

FontCrystalHei.cab includes a font from HK Official Pro2 Asia ROM that includes 99% of both Simplified & Traditional Chinese characters.

FontPMingLiu.cab includes a font(細明體) from HK Official Pro2 Asia ROM.

FontMSYHWin7.cab includes a font from MS Windows 7(微软雅黑).( too big, Go to alternative download to get this)

It's not a must to make 2 cabs, just easier for me to replace/update either the font or WinCE.nls respectively. You can merge them into one cab if you like.

Perform a soft-reset after installing these two cabs and your phone is ready for Chinese.

Tested on ROMs for Touch Pro2:

CELL PRO

CELL EVO PRO

Energy ROM

AthineOS

Valkyrie FireStorm

Rhodium_AF

HK/EU Official WWE ROM

According to the same principles, these two cab should also work on other HTC WM6.1/6.5/6.5.3 devices like Touch Pro(Tested), Diamond(Tested), Diamond2(Tested), HD2, etc.

Install any Chinese IME you like after you enabled Chinese display.

Suggested IME:

QQ PinYin: hard-keyboard, CHT/CHS switch,etc. but doesn't have Qucik,Cangjie,WuBi version yet, only PinYin

There is another option: PlumSIP(modified by myself) , supports PinYin, Quick, Cangjie, WuBi.

I have been using the same thing for years

Your method seems too overly complicated.

I posted a method on the XDA-developers wiki a few years back when I figured out the best way to get Chinese/Japanese display support. I have been using this since my first Windows 2003 PDA over 6 years ago.

The best thing is it is only 1.8 megs total and it has full support for ALL Chinese and Japanese including Chinese pinyin.

Check it out on the Wiki here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=WM5_Tweak_Language_Chinese

If you want Chinese input, I use PlumSIP and it works great with the keyboard, as I use the "Mail" button to easily switch between English and Chinese, or even between different input methods of English (such as T9) and Chinese (such as stroke based). Anyone interested in this? This tops out at a 3.6 meg download.
