No not I ..

What apps(Google Maps, MSN Search, other)?
What Provider?
Custom or Stock ROM?
Is it everytime even after a soft reset or power off/on or is this just an isolated 1 time occurrence?

I flashed and got the GPS Running without data, but it gives this message. Thanks.

Are you using the AGPS fix?

What ROM were you running before Flashing NFSFAN's 1.15 because it was only released a couple of weeks ago?

Were you having this problem before?

Here's the guide you are looking for:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...VerizonAGPSFix

... be sure you use the new settings as follows (one of the screenshots on the wiki should be updated):
PDE IP Address: 216.198.139.92
PDE Port Number: 8889
PDE Transport: IP
Position Calculation: PDE

I used these settings:

[FONT='Arial','sans-serif']1. [/FONT][FONT='Arial','sans-serif']Next, you need to fill in the following Verizon aGPS PDE information:[/FONT]
[FONT='Arial','sans-serif']PDE IP Address: 66.174.95.132
PDE Port Number: 8888
PDE Transport: IP
Position Calculation: PDE[/FONT]


They worked fine, and had the error.

I also still have the error 11 PPP Connection Error with the new settings.

Forgive me, but that sentence is contradictory... if it worked, you wouldn't have an error.

The 66.174.95.132 IP is the old VZW server that will no longer work correctly. You may get a lock, but GPS is not stable with those settings. Please refer to the XDA wiki page posted in my previous comment for the proper settings.

ALSO... search around the forums here. This question has been asked before:

After looking over info on this thread I tried shutting off my phone, removing the battery, then starting it back up and doing a *228. after it programed and rebooted my data connection is now working! Thanks a ton!

It connects correctly, it also locks and shows appropriate location. It does give the error every time. Its just a slow lock. I do not have the data package if that helps. I also have a data block on my line.

Ahh well sounds like you answered your own questions there
aGPS utilizes data hence the error
GPS doesnt access the towers for the assisted lock hence the reason it works eventually after the error

So it will error with the data block? aGPS uses bandwidth? How can I disable this on order to connect without the error?
