Default Change gps.conf file
Hello everybody

I have copied the existing gps.conf file in /system/etc, changed the content and now want to exchange the original with the new.

I have Hboot 1.01 and is s-on

I have been told that the best way to get the new gps.conf file into the /etc folder is via using adb in recovery mode. How to do I do that ? (exact steps) I have adb shell installed on my laptop from when i rooted the phone with CM7.0.3

(have tried editing the file with root explorer without luck, permission denied etc.)

By default rootexplorer is on r/o mode (read only), did you pass it in r/w mode when you try that?
