Hack to bring up A-GPS data!!!
 
I was on pdaphonehome dot com and found a way to access A-GPS data on the 6700. Verizon users already have the field enabled if you go to the phone and type ##33284#/##33284 then dial. Sprint users need to go into the registry and change some things.

Go to HKLM/Software/OEM/FieldTrial, and change DisablePage from a value of 4 to a value of 0, the GPS page will be visible on a Sprint phone.

Now on Verizon you can dial 922 and get the page to fill up with GPS readings but on the Sprint 6700's it doesn't work. The only way I have found to bring up GPS data is to use Sprint Family Locator, and locate the phone then the GPS field becomes populated with GPS readings.

I guess if you were lost and didnt know where u where the gps position would be a good thing to know.

yeah well too bad you need a computer to get it to work. I think the only good thing about it is that if I loose my phone now I can track it.

This sure will make someone flip when you show up at their door and say,'I think you had my phone and I wanted it back.' :D

you have to use sprint family locator to locate yourself for anything to show up on there.
