The short and long answer is that you can't have GPS nor A-GPS in this device--at least not in any usable form. The hardware is capable but the firmware is not. A-GPS is currently used for E-911 and certain Sprint network functions only (both of which provide only a "snapshot" type of fix--not a constantly updating one). There is close to a 0% chance that it will ever be possible to use that functionality with 3rd party programs on this device. Sorry.

You should get a bluetooth GPS unit if you want to use GPS software on the Apache.
