GPS functionality with upgraded ROMs

NanoLove · #1 (**permalink**) 12-26-2008, 07:55 PM

I would like to enable GPS functionality in the Vouge.
I have a xv6900 that I upgraded to Verizon new leaded ROM, GPS - not working.
I unlocked the phone and now have the 2.31 coke boot loader with OMJ's custom rom - GPS not working.
I used a couple of other URL's of the web to configure the settings using QPST and use some cab files (that were meant for xv6800) - GPS still not working.

GPS not working implies -> No satellite locks, Google Maps keep searching for GPS satellites.

Did you run the Valhalla fix after upgrading to the leaked ROM?

Yes I ran Valhalla fix after the upgrade.

Currently I am able to use vznavigator with verizon ROM, but with OMJ's ROM I am unable to use VZ Navigator. Atleast the hardware is good

Alright, Here is the current situation that I find myself in.

Leaked Verizon ROM - VZ Navigator working with new ROM. VZ Navigaor requires new ROM version to work. Problem is that I cannot use internet sharing.

Maniall ROM (OMJ's) - GPS is not working, I have internet sharing and all the fun/good apps from OMJ.

My requirements are - GPS, Inernet Sharing, Manilla interface. I do not mind paying for the VZ Navigator.

Do we know of a new version of ROM thats based on Manilla interface?
