You do not have to custom flash to get gps working on XV6800. There is a fix for the MR1 Verizon update on XDA developers. For those who want to keep the MR1 Verizon Update, here is what to do!
The best way to get the GPS fix working for any GPS software
after MR1 update is to:
1. Set your GPS location on.
Start>Settings>Phone>Services Get Settings of location setting. Turn LOCATION ON
2. Check External GPS settings
Start>Settings>System> click on External GPS set program port to Com4. In the Access setting make sure the Manage GPS is checked.
3. Start the VZ Navigator, and run it until it initializes with Verizons's settings. Put in a destination address and try to get the route. You will get a error if your do not have a subscription to VZ Navigator with Verizon. That's ok. We just want the initialization process. Close VZ Navigator.
4.Install the Valhalla Legends GPSServer.cab from:

page 12 post 113,
Copy the Valhalla cab to your Device or Storage Card and run it from there. Allow it to install on your Device(Main Storage).
Do a soft reset
5. Installed and run Google Maps or Live Search, and test it. You may have to go outside. You should be up and running now.
