Hackers enable GPS on HTC Trinity

by Michael Caputo, posted Jan 30th 2007 at 12:46PM

It seems like nowadays, a hacker's work is never done and with a little time and know-how, anything is possible. Does everyone remember when the HTC Trinity first appeared on our radar? It had all the makings of a great one less being shipped with the GPS receiver in a dormant state. Lucky for us all it took was a few well-skilled hackers and some determination to come up with how to enable it. Looking at the instructions, seems like a pretty simple procedure. If anyone is brave enough to try it, drop us a line and let us know the outcome.

The GPS on the Trinity works. Now on to seeing if we can get it to work on the Hermes
