I have Verizon HTC TouchPro and I’m hoping that there’s by now a workable upgrade for unlocking GPS. Google Maps does not work nor does a Marine GPS package I have which is otherwise wonderful and works on another device I have. Any update since June?

It’s sporadic, but it appears the latest HTC Home versions trigger it more commonly… likely because they do not use a MS-clean way of marking the messages as read. It also appears on MS’s end, since this can also happen via the taskbar notification.

Regardless, Windows Mobile 6.5 does take care of this, since it opens up the API for flowing messages much more than 6.1 and earlier.

Christopher, that never happened on my diamond until last week. Last week it started to make me touch the contact to mark message as read. It started happening after I installed the latest gps hotfix. I’m thinking of uninstalling it to see if that fixes it. Oh, well I guess I can deal with it even though it is really annoying.

Elijah, that has been a bug for awhile now. It’s pretty common on HTC phones and incoming messages that you immediately reply to (or, open from HTC Home).

It seems that HTC just gave up on fixing it, and has differed that to Windows Mobile 6.5.

There are still some bugs with this update….I installed today and now it will not automatically mark a new message as read when you reply to it. I must now manually touch the contact in front of the message to mark it as read. Very very annoying.

The .nbh files are the same. Only the documentation is different. Same update that was posted before…

Re-re-installation under MR1 v2.0 (or, I guess, 2.0.1) does fix the GPS issues that crop up after using the device for a day or two.

Be sure to re-download VZ Navigator as well, as it was updated alongside this re-re-release. VZ Navigator now stands at 4.1.6.60
