Verizon - Official WM 6.1 Update

[sdlucky7]

Ok... So I got a new 6900 (other one had issues) and it came pre-flashed with the official Verizon MR1 update. So I put the correct settings ("location on," etc), installed Google Maps, and then installed the Vahalla cab. Problem is that it is not working. It looks for GPS for a while (I checked using GPS Today as well) then gives up. I've tried "uninstalling" (deleting) the vahalla cab files and reinstalling a few times. Is anyone else having the issue with the official update? Know any fix?

GPS worked for me under the test rom radio 3.37.77 (that I had on my previous phone) so if I can't get it to work under this one, does anyone think the phone would explode if I tried to reflash it to the test rom? Or perhaps would just a hard-reset and not letting the customizations run fix it?

Any help would be awesome...

I'm running official update - customizations ran. Vahalla works fine - though it did give me an error message at time of installation (error message was in error). Have had one occasion when inside/cloudy day that it couldn't find satelites.

Identical problem with me. Got a replacement xv6900 with 6.1 and Valhalla does not work on it. In fact now I can't even uninstall Valhalla. I hate to hard reset the phone and install everything again...that would be a pain. I think I'm just going to cancel data until VZ opens up the GPS to Google maps; right now data is not much use for me without the GPS function. VZ Nav at $10 a month isn't worth it for me as I don't travel that much.....

p.s. anyone know how to find the files and remove Valhalla GPS???
