Author Mogul GPS enabled in ROM 3.16.651.0

2008-01-28, 3:33 pm

Spent some time playing with Google Maps and Mogul GPS in ROM 3.16.651.0
over the weekend.

Satellite acquisition is immediate outside, or in car.
Inside one-story building, using Wi-Fi, takes 5-10 minutes.
Unable to use in multi-story buildings.

Pretty nifty.

I would be willing to try the ROM upgrade, but couldn't access a link to it
from the info posted previously. Is it still available, or do we know when
it will be "officially" accessible?

Kim:

I can still download from the rapidshare.com link.
Rename the extracted file from *.ex to *.exe, and be patient.
I'm using Vista Ultimate 64-bit and the re-flash locked at 11% twice.
Just keep trying, and eventually it will complete, or you'll have a brick.
Make sure you know where the Sprint Service center is in your location.
This is VERY unofficial, and the thread mentions March as the "official" release.
I have to admit that Google Maps is fun:

Good Luck!
Bob
P.S. Beware that roaming seems to be broken in this ROM.

Very good FAQ by TalyOne on the Mogul GPS:

Yes that is a very good FAQ.

BTW now that it is March I hope I don't have to wait too much longer for the "Offical" release of the Mogul ROM since I'm ready and waiting for it.

With as much time as HTC has been taking I'd like to see the ROM upgrade also give us WM6.1.
