I replied to someone's concern about this on
Howard Forums:
Settings/Personal/Phone/CDMA Services/GPS - Get Settings/Location On --
Went back to Google Maps and after about 30 seconds, "Seeking GPS satellites (0)..." changed to "GPS active (4)"
Magically, the updated Bing for Verizon's Privacy Policy now actually loads. Pressed Accept. Validating Authorization Status flashed by and then Permission to Locate came up after accepting the ToS. Pressed Done to accept the default access time (24x7). Pressed Save at the Privacy Summary. Unless Bing uses triangulation as a fallback as well, I think the GPS is working in there too.
Hope that relieves your concerns as well and we can get back to the topic at hand-- removing the dreaded Arcsoft client. Anybody tried messing around with the Settings/System/Memory/Clear Storage/Custom Configuration to see if it has any clues on removing the Arcsoft? The Tips, Hints and Shortcuts manual states, "This will erase all data and install the enterprise's custom configuration."
