Verizon GPS not working anymore

[W7GMC]

"Serfboreds" has come up with a really easy GPS Fix if your running Valhalla with the latest Verizon rom. Simple and easy as pie. Dowload and install the Serf Telus aGPS for Valhalla Cab and dial *22899 to reprogram the phone. Damn thing is working again!!!!!!!!

Fix to the Verizon's BS move to shut down the GPS!

ive just been trying to get it to work in stand alone mode, im still waiting for my vogue to get activated so i unlocked it, upped the radio to 3.42.30 (im on verizon and i dont know if thats why its not working?) and made my own 6.1 rom and when i use visualgpsce or tomtom i see sats and at most ill see 4 that will show hi %'s but nothing locks i already have it set to disable agps by reg settings but left everything else the way it was, any ideas?

I'm running Verizon's official ROM update and Serf Telus aGPS for Valhalla Cab. I haven't tried any of the cooked roms. I have developed an interesting problem that I don't associate with the updates to open the GPS. THe phone now will not dial up a data connection. Trying to isolate the issue, but looks like I'll have to do a hard reset since reprogramming has not solved my issue.

Verizon XV6800 user, MR1 w/Valhalla GPS. Mine died about a month ago as well. Been stumped as to why. This fix took care of it and it now works once again.

Same boat. I have NFS 6.5 Rom, radio 3.43.50. I had GPS working briefly when I pointed to the 216. address. GPS stopped working a bit later, checked the IP in the reg and it changed back to the Verizon IP??? 65. ?

Checked QPST, everything and VZW GPS is cooked again. Anyone else? Is there some new change we need to know about?

UPDATE: aGPS working again - very strange. Locks in seconds.

This is for folks who did not let Verizon MR1/MR2 customizations run (no Vahalla), I am on NFSFAN's 6.5 v8 ROM (outstanding ROM BTW), Radio 3.42.50:

in QPST
set server IP to: 216.198.139.92
set port to 8889
protocol to IP

in Registry:
EnableAGPS - 1
Gpsmode - 4 (was set to 2 and it did not work. changed to 4 and it worked)
Registry serverIP - 216.198.139.92
Port 8889

Soft reset - double check registry settings (it appears mine swapped back to VZWs IP)

I Had the same problem, with not getting a data connection, and had to do a system restore and *228 to solve the problem, got no GPS though, so this did not work for me. Verizon stock upgrade to 6.1 with Valhalla agps. Too bad for now

I'm in the Eugene Oregon area and the GPS on my phone quit too? I thought it was because of the rom I was trying but, no fix is working?
