Re: Using TP GPS without Sprint service possible?

Is there any way activate the GPS chip without activating with sprint?
Thanks
I am 100% sure that Garmin works with no service (used it in airplane mode on an airplane )

Not sure about IGO though. I know that TomTom doesn't like to work in airplane mode although it does not require cell service.
