I have an xv6900, MR1, Valhalla. I can get plain GPS with Mode = 0. But as soon as I change it to Mode = 2, I don't get anything w/ google maps.

For PDEAddress I am entering, 5C 8B C6 D8, exactly. W/o the spaces I end up w/ 0's. For PDEPort I am entering, 88 89, exactly. Is that right? Also, could the key types have anything to do w/ it?

I have to get agps working again. Otherwise, it's 5 minute cold locks...

I did a couple of these and I had all kinds of problemes unless I re-installed Valhalla just before I made the registry changes. Install Valhalla Cab -> Make Changes -> Soft Reset and it worked each time after that process.

I just tried re-installing Valhalla and it comes back "unsuccessful". I even started from scratch the other day, re-flashing w/ MR1, re-installing Valhalla. Am I entering everything correctly? ie., 5C 8B C6 D8 with the spaces?

I would re-enter
HKLM\Software\Valhalla Legends\GPSServer\Mode=2 <- D_WORD Decimal
HKLM\Software\Valhalla Legends\GPSServer\PDEAddress=5C8BC6D8<-Change to D_WORD Hex before entering the code
HKLM\Software\Valhalla Legends\GPSServer\PDEPort=8889<- D_WORD Decimal
Then soft reset -I ussually wait about 20-30 seconds after changing then soft reset and for whatever reason after that I power off pull battery and restart,
Hope this helps

OK. I tried entering the Telus information many, many times, only to be frusterated by no aGPS. Much props to WMNoobie. I followed his advice and recreated the registry keys and values with the types he specified and FINALLY, aGPS is working. I'm getting locks from a cold start in less than 30 seconds, indoors.

My situation was as follows: I have an xv6900, MR1 and Valhalla's cab. I was entering everything as suggested many, many times in this thread and the xda thread and it wasn't working. I had to switch back to Mode=0 to get anything (plain GPS -slow!). After recreating the reg keys/values, aGPS started working after a soft reset.
