Is there any way activate the GPS chip without activating with sprint?
Thanks
Yes, you can use your phone as a stand alone gps device. Make sure your gps is on by going to start-settings-phone, then click on the services tab and click on the get settings button and make sure it's on. google maps and windows live is not stand alone....they require a data connection to download maps.
