switching from aGPS -> Standalone, and back again

---

Hello, I've searched up and down trying to find a way to switch from aGPS mode to Standalone GPS mode without doing it all manually in the registry. Is there a way to create a program that will make the regedits? Or is there a program or something out there that does this already?

Around town aGPS is great, but I often go out to the desert to go riding and 9 time out of 10 there is no cell signal out there. When I get to these dead zones, I'd love to be able to switch back to standalone GPS for tracking purposes. And then once, on my way home, it would be great to be able to switch back to the aGPS mode...

Anything out there for this? Is is possible?

Disabling agps is done by changing one key in the registry. It takes like 15 seconds.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\SUPL AGPS\"EnableAGPS"=00000001(1)

change to

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\SUPL AGPS\"EnableAGPS"=00000000(0)

Is that the key that needs to be changed? Thanks!

These are the options I have:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\SUPL AGPS\"EnableAGPS"=dword:00000000]
"ServerIP"="66.174.95.132"
"ServerPort"=dword:000022b8
"EnableGPSSmartMode"=dword:00000001
"QosPerformance"=dword:00000059
"QoSAccuracy"=dword:00000032
"TimeBetweenFixes"=dword:00000001
"NumberFixes"=dword:3b9ac9ff
"GPSMode"=dword:00000002
"EnableAGPS"=dword:00000000

What would I change to go to Standard GPS mode, disabling aGPS mode?

You already have it disabled if EnableAGPS is 0. If you want it on then you need that to be 1.

Is that all I need to to do make it go in stand alone gps mode?

You should be go to go with that being 0. Just try it out and let me know.

Here let me fix someones botched attempt to help. And this is not a "hunch" or speculation, its because I KNOW!

These 3 values need changed to be in Standalone mode. I bet the reason he keeps posting back is because he already tried changing your 1 value and the data connection keeps popping up anyways...

So here are the three keys and their values. This puts the GPS on the phone in Standalone mode. To go back to Agps just restore the 3 settings to the settings underneath. I put those there for you also for reference.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\SUPL AGPS\

Standalone
"EnableGPSSmartMode"=dword:00000000
"GPSMode"=dword:00000001
"EnableAGPS"=dword:00000000

AGPS
"EnableGPSSmartMode"=dword:00000001
"GPSMode"=dword:00000002
"EnableAGPS"=dword:00000001

Please no bantering as this is the exact answer. Enjoy, good luck, and take care.

Edit: And to answer your original question.. There is not a program that can switch back and forth but, a Mortscript can be written to perform such functions.. Search for and Post in the Mortscipt examples accumulation in the Development and Hacking section.

Perfect! Thank you very much for the info. I will be sure to post back on the progress of a program or script if I get that adventurous.

Does going to standalone turn of the 911 ability to locate you?
