Re: Update verizon PRI and Sprint AGPS
Applied all the fixed, using DCD 3.2.5, radio 3.42.50 and now getting locks in under 15 seconds without Quick GPS. Not much faster using Quick GPS. THANKS!! This is on a VZW 6800.

Re: Update verizon PRI and Sprint AGPS
The "3 files" are placebo efect at this point. All they do is allow for unregistered dll's to work... they were originally needed with the Alltell ROM because it did not include some dll's needed for GPS and they were copied from a different device. Now that ROMs exist with GPS completely enabled, the 3 files do nothing effective for GPS.

Re: Update verizon PRI and Sprint AGPS
If you're looking at this thread, and have been following the steps, and nothing has worked. It's because everyone here was getting a placebo effect. The solution HAS been found by GC. It ACTUALLY works! The VERIZON aGPS server has been found and is being used. I tried it on the XV6900 and got 8 satellites on a rainy day in my office, LOCKED in 5-10 seconds. The last time I ran my GPS was yesterday, but 2,000 miles away! This is NOT a placebo. It is the solution!

Re: Update verizon PRI and Sprint AGPS
Edit: Nevermind. I don't know how to turn it off, but research shows that it is just to "help" the GPS, and is not required to actually USE the GPS, I can mind extra time to lock if it means I am not using data. Now, I suppose to turn it off I just set the IP address in the registry to 0.0.0.0?
Hello, I am about the purchase the VX6900 because it does not need the data plan (I have a laptop and an aircard) mandated by Verizon. I understood that the GPS could be "unlocked", which I took to mean that any GPS program could use the built in receiver. However, and I apologize for my lack of knowledge here, but it appears that the phone needs to access an IP number (Data- AGPS??) to work. Is there any way to use the GPS and NOT use any data? I'm not trying to be smart or anything, but like every other GPS? I'm sorry to bring this thread back, but I really need to know before the phone gets in.

Re: Update verizon PRI and Sprint AGPS
I think the poster meant that a data plan is not required to purchase the verizon touch unlike the omnia which requires a data plan to buy.

Re: Update verizon PRI and Sprint AGPS
I am on an Alltel Touch Pro. I am looking for a Verizon PRI. Does anyone have any suggestion where I can find one to put on my phone?
