For Verizon your radio should be 3.37.77 or 3.37.78 for the GPS to work Period. If your ROM is MW6 & not WM6.1 then you are going to need to upgrade the radio. As far as upgrading to the 3.42.5 Bell radio in am not sure if there is an advantage. I guess it might depend on where you live. If you currently are not running Wm6.1 if you decide to upgrade don't let the customizations run.

It's been a long time since I upgraded just the radio on a device. I am not sure if your device will hard reset or not. I would back-up your device before you do anything.
