quickgps?

[icup]

hey guys, just started working at att and i requested the tilt as my company phone. well i got it yesterday, but i am completely pda/smartphone illiterate..

and i have been skimming over this forum but it minus well have been written in chinese...

so i read that quick gps is already loaded on the phone? i went through file explorer and couldn't find it anywhere... did i over look it?

also, the phone seems really laggy... from the screen switching from potrait to landscape... and there seems to be alot of lag in pressing the numbers on the touchscreen.

i've seen all the rom flashes and such... but is there a dummy guide to flashing the rom? do i download it onto my comp then move it over using active sync? does it matter what folder i put it under?

sorry for the stupid questions, but i tried my best to read through the threads but i couldn't seem to absorb anything...

first off, try advanced search for the kaiser thread

second, coming from att might get you banned here... seems anyone that mentions xda on att forums gets banned :rolleyes:

(i for one have been happy with the customer service)

there are plenty of guides to flashing, but basically you need to be careful. hook up to active sync and install hardspl, it won't look like anything happened so verify that you did it. then you're ready to flash your rom of choice. I use XDA Live, just keep in mind that flashing is risky and so you need to read read read... I'd stick with the stock rom for awhile anyway

quickgps is under programs BTW

this thread might be deleted just on the principal that there are a hundred like it :D

thanks for the info....

didn't know there was so much animosity between att workers and xda people...

i just work there to pay the bills and put food in the mouth... hopefully some of you know where im coming from...

also, to get my today screen to look like this....

not really interested in the bee in the background but more the layout of the today screen... im guessing that would require a rom flash? it just looks so much cleaner then the standard today screen...

To make your screen look like that, background excluded, all you need to do is to fing HTC Home cab file and install it. You do not need to change the ROM. Search... grasshopper...er bumble bee

Check your PMs... probably best to conduct the newbie stuff outside of the general population.
