They don't know if it works on the Touch with the VZW 6.1 and valhalla though, but they thought that it should be able to.
Anyway, I've flashed and let customizations run and ran valhalla. But the only way I could get the satellites to show up in Tracky was to start GMM first. But then the lat and long in Tracky is just random, and changes drastically every second. Closing GMM has no affect. My other 3rd party apps mostly behave exactly the same way. Though I did have one program that worked a little bit (trackpal?), but then the gps data would just freeze up - that was with the original flash and letting customizations run.
I've since reflashed to the VZW 6.1 and this time I didn't let customizations run. I installed valhalla gpsserver. I've done the qpst agps fix, though not sure if that did anything. I've also installed gpsid, which also doesnt seem to add anything. I'm going to try the latest gpsgate in a minute. So far my results since reflashing without customizations is identical to my results when I let them run.  |
I can't authenticate this but I just have a suspicion that a 2nd flash doesn't do a complete new flash, that may not make sense but I did a 2nd flash and 'attempted' the 'stop customization' (I say attempted because I don't feel it was complete) I was not able to do those apps that are supposed to work when NOT customizing. Hopefully with a few of use testing and scratching our heads we will come up w/ a solution. My goal is to run Tom Tom as well as google maps. leslie
