Change the registry setting in Valhalla GPSServer as follows:

HKLM\Software\Valhalla Legends\GPSServer\Mode=0, then soft reset.

This one disables the AGPS mode to use the GPS standalone mode. So no data plan is necessary. The lock is not as fast as agps but still locks in 2 min in cold start in open ground. The satellite number is not as many either, but still OK to get Google Maps and iGuidance working.

If it doesn't lock sometimes, just soft reset the phone.

Thanks Thenikonian for the great tips!

Stevens, I just ordered a xv6900 and am planning to put a data block. What was your wife's exact setup? 3.37.78 or leaked 3.37.77, customization or no customization? I saw you had 3.37.78 customization but I'm not sure if you have a data plan. So I just wanted to copy your wife's setup so there's no problems. Thanks!
