Re: ANOTHER VZW GPS thread (read before assuming I'm a b00n)

The Valhalla cab gives users running the locked down PRI the ability to somewhat circumvent this. Apps like Google Maps will work fine with this setup. Apps like iGo, or any app that relies on direct COM port visibility will not operate, since they cannot get the COM port to use.

You also have the VZW PDE server IP, which if you see the thread on VZW GPS not working it will tell you to use the Telus PDE server. I do not believe the VZE server has come back up yet, but I could be wrong.

Were you running the VZW stock ROM at one time?

3.02 is locked down? I thought that was the working one? I will seek out and try the other IP, but that is for aGPS only right? I'm not getting ANY data even after being in clear skys outside for 5 minutes.

I was running stock when I first got the phone. It's been flashed MANY times since then.

Is ipstLab2 the replcement for PPST? How do either of these relate to GPS issues?

Where do I find an alternate/better PRI, and how are they typically installed?

EDIT: No valhalla cab. Not even familiar with it.
