Here's what worked for me on the ATT Tilt with the same QuickGPS issue. I had previously installed KaiserTweak on my Tilt -- run Kaiser Tweak, scroll down to QuickGPS (its under Tools) and select it, then select OEM Settings (the other choice is called BAD, go figure).

I may have a workaround - after some experimentation I discovered that I still could download while in Active Sync mode (so it wasn't quite dead). I also discovered that the file it tries to download is
http://xtra1.gpsonextra.net/xtra.bin (it also will try for urls with xtra2 and xtra3 as prefix). Using this URL in Internet Explorer I could download sucessfully as a normal file. The interesting thing was that after Internet Explorer could download the file - so could QuickGPS.
It seems that flipping between an Active Sync connection and a cellular connection some settings are retained causing the failure.
Finally it seems you don't actually need to download the file from explorer - just cancel the request when it asks you to save etc.
So, in summary, set the URL up as a favorite in IE - run it, cancel the save and then run QuickGPS.

I hope this works for you guys as well 1  out of 2 found this valuable. Do you?

I didn't have to do any cab updates, just opened a browser session to Google and then started QuickGPS and it finally connected and downloaded (so I quick I actually missed it! I love 3G). The specifc post on the xda-developers forum I saw was:

Thanks - this worked for me. Interestingly (or maybe not) I noticed the following,
1) The default path in the favourites had a mixture of path separators (i.e. / and \).
2) I had also lost at least 1 favourites URL (to Orange, as it happens).
3) My Copilot software had lost its program port setting to use the internal GPS. Do you find this valuable?

In Windows Mobile 6.1 one big fix could be the location settings. Just go to >Start > Settings> Phone > Servives (@ bottom) > in the scroll box select "Location Setting" push Get Settings... > now make sure this is set to ON. I did all kinds of things with no luck. Found this little thing and i was up and running with all the GPS services that i had D/L Do you find this valuable?
