Re: Verizon GPS Discussion
 
Hey, I am optimistic. Either Verizon provides it soon or someone will figure out how to port over settings/firmware/ROM/etc from a working GPS implementation on a Touch Pro.

We should get GPS on this device very soon!

I'm not sure what gave you that idea, but it's not true.

I have a sprint TP activated on vz with the leaked vz ROM, my GPS works fine (although it doesn't lock as fast as my old 6800 with the aGPS tweaks did) & I have EV-DO working just fine.

I was under the impression all of the Sprint equipped phone guys had broken EV due to VZW's AAA server not recognizing the device. My apologies! Thanks for the correction!

I also have EVDO, but my GPS only works intermittantly. It's either perfect with instant locks of 8-11 sats or fails to initialize.

Wow, that would definitely make me keep my Verizon TP, but if the Sprint TP does everthing the Verizon TP does on the VZW network, then that's good. :)

I doubt this will work, but has anyone tried loading the original Titan 1.35 PRI?
Since we can port over LBSDrivers, would it be possible for someone to edit them. I imagine the would need to be decompiled then recompiled before editing, but that's possible.

I never got an answer the last few times I have asked, but doesnt the gps functionality have to do with The PRI? Why not install the one from the sprint touch pro ROM and live with the roaming triangle? If a sprint phone flashed over and edited to make work on verizon is fully functional, couldnt you go the other way and put a sprint PRI on a verizon device and get that working? Maybe I am just stupid?

lol..... been there done that.... I can't get this device to take any PRI Update. If I can get it figured out there is a good possibility the GPS will unlock with the correct intermediate drivers installed.

Not so far. I even tried to load the complete setting from yours and another one I aquired. Neither were successfull. I haven't given up though. Just been working on a custom rom the last 2 days along with work, wife and 4 kids.
