Ok, so thanks to the help of a bunch of people I was able to flash my xv6800 with the latest rado and os ROMS. I started playing with the GPS now.
I've followed the instructions in the FAQ thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=363431
Enabled location in phone settings, downloaded and installed VisualGPsce and the Gps Viewer but I cannot get any response from any satellites.
GPS Viewer, when I turn it on has all kinds of info scrolling in the message box but never even hints at connection.
Before I activated my phone after flashing the new ROMS today, I saw what I thought was the GPS icon on my phone. But after doing *228 (I think that's it) on Verzion the icon is gone. May just be a coincidence but maybe not.
Thanks for any help.
Edit: What ROM, RADIO, and PRI are you using? "latest" doesn't mean much. Need specifics. You can check this under Device Information control panel.
Install google maps
set the com port to 4, baud 4800.
Enable GPS in Google Maps
See if it says Seeking Sattelites (0) and if hte number changes. If it does it's finding sats.
Also make sure you're trying this outdoors.
Lastly I'd do the aGPS fix for Verizon that gc14 posted. WOAH faster locks.
ROM iw dcd 3.2.6 radio is 3.42.50.
I did load google maps and the number sits at 0. I have tried this outside with my garman right next to it and it was able to connect.

Just do yourself a favor and do the aGPS fix. It works. Follow gc's wiki EXACTLY.

Look it over, print it out, and follow it precisely..... then fire up the GPS and smile.

Ok, aGPS solved my problem. When I read the info on it it seemed optional but I'm guessing its pretty much necessary.
Thanks for the help guys. This board is a great service!
WOW WOW WOW!!!!
I have NEVER been able to have any satellites find me, and I just did the AGPS fix and used GoogleMaps and it WORKED!!!
I am so excited!! Thank you all - especially gc!
I got gps working and I was inside too!! I love this place!

I don't think you run it from command line persay but run it by using file explorer and clicking on the file. I could be wrong though as I'm still learning this stuff.

if you use a file explorer like GSFinder you can go to your windows folder find DMRouter click and hold until you get a pop up to select open then select parameter then type in \Diag and hit ok... check the wiki page my backslash might need to be a foward slash I can remember right now to damn early
Does this work for ALLTEL? My gps already does work but it takes a FEW minutes to find satellites!!
Tried the file explorer found the router but it does not allow me to open it or do anything with it .

Follow Shadow-Tech's Guide for aGPS on Alltell.... HERE
Alltel has different PDE server info. But I think you can apply the same method using that info. I believe it's posted somewhere on this site and/or the PPCgeeks site.
as a side note, for Bell users:
I am on Bell, and for some reason I didn't have to do this method to get my aGPS to work. If you install the Bell carrier cab from dcd and update the PRI, the aGPS just works. It has something to do with the NV setting? I would love to understand more about why mine was so simple. The thread that I used was this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=419855
Can someone explain what the newest PRI does and why aGPS all of a sudden works? I'd be most appreciative.
Any other ideas to try I would love to get this up and running .
THANKS NITRO! I will try this out and post my results.

aGPS locking up
I'm running Bell, dcd 3.2.5, radio 3.42.50 with aGPS working just fine, for a while. After a couple of times of turning the screen off (Power button), or standby, or whatever you call that mode...TomTom 7.450 (and GPStoday and Intelligolf all latest versions) stop locking via aGPS. Normally I get locks in 5-10 seconds with all these programs but afterwards I get nothing. TomTom shows satellites but won't lock on to any of them.
Please ask me questions if I missed anything. Any ideas?
I used to have the same issue. I upgraded to dcd 3.2.6. Still with radio 3.42.50. I also did the aGPS setting enable per another thread. Since then, I no longer have that problem. I get quick satellite fixes for days on end without the need to soft reset.
Power mangement
Hi all,
easy fix, I had the same issue. It is the power management. Once you put your phone to stand by the GPS will not come back up unless you use Quick GPS (don't know why but it bring is out of standby) or you can do the following regedit.
In the regestry I found these settings for power management.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\Interfaces]
"{EB91C7C9-8BF6-4a2d-9AB8-69724EED97D1}"="Power-manageable display"
"{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}"="Power-manageable NDIS miniports"
"{8DD679CE-8AB4-43c8-A14A-EA4963FAA715}"="Power-manageable block devices"
"{A32942B7-920C-486b-B0E6-92A702A99B35}"="Generic power-manageable devices"
Each one of the {} strings are an IClass for other device including the GPS. The one found in the GPS was this "{A32942B7-920C-486b-B0E6-92A702A99B35}. When I deleted the IClass string out of the following keys, you are now able to put your phone to standby and the GPS will keep running.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\GPSID]
"IClass"="{A32942B7-920C-486b-B0E6-92A702A99B35}"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\SerialGPS]
"IClass"="{A32942B7-920C-486b-B0E6-92A702A99B35}"
Thanks for the info guys! I'll try deleting the registry items first and see what happens.
AGPS and Data usage
Hi, I am hoping someone can answer this for me, does AGPS use data, is it costing me money to use it? I have read many posts and still I am confused. I am using dcd rom 3.2.6, radio 3.42.50 PRI 2.02_007. Thanks
I noticed a significant decrease in lock times after going to PRI 2.02_007, FWIW.

Yes, by default the assisted mode will request to transfer small amounts of data (download satellite ephemeris data) over the network everytime the GPS is initiated and when satellite coverage is obscurred (location determination from a IP defined assistance server).
I have confirmed this with my online data summary with Telus.
Thanks for the for the help.

About 10 seconds. It was way longer before. Sometimes a few mintues.
I'm running DCD 3.2.6 with radio 3.42.50 and PRI 1.34_007. I have ridiculous lock times most of the time. I don't use QuickGPS or anything else other than Google Maps. I've waited minutes sometimes to get a lock. I live in Milton, ON, and use GPS typcially anywhere in that area and the GTA (Toronto) area. I don't use GPS all that often and perhaps that's why is slow to lock each time I try and use it?
Regarding the PRI comment made earlier in this thread. I'm curious how you upgrade your PRI? I've tried the "Update PRI" icon in Settings | Connections, and although it reboots after doing something it's always the same rev afterwards. It also returns an error after it tries to update and prior to the reboot -"backup EFS failed" in a window with a window title of "PPST". Tap okay to that window and the phone soft reboots and nothing has changed.
I also could not update PRI using the icon provided by DCD. He provided the attached cab version in another post. You will have to install it on your device, then run /windows/ppst.exe
Also, be sure to do the GPS fix found at this link:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=TitanGpsFix
These 2 things should fix your lock times.

S-W-E-E-E-E-T! Performed both steps, and got my first lock in about 20 seconds. I'll test it over the next few days in different areas to see if this is now the norm. Many thanks for the info.
No problem. Enjoy!

Right now the phone isnt doing squat. I think I am going to downgrade my DCD a lower version then run the carrier cab and GPS fix...
I will do it up and post if I need help
I hope someone can shed some light on this.
I have follow all the instruction that I could find to setup the aGPS on this phone.
The problem is, some time it only take about 10 to 20 seconds to lock on the satellite. Some time it takes a long time like 10 to 15 minutes, and sometime never.
I would like to get to the end of this. I have cooked and uses DCD's Rom, none of which makes any difference.
I must have flashed this phone for over 20 times and ech time with the same results.
It would work mostly in the day time (afternoon) but not at night or early AM.
Hope someone would be able to point me to the right direction.
Thanks in advance.
Update 10/17/08
Here is what I have done wrong. I have remove/delete my data connection from the phone .
"Wifi will not work with the PDE Server. It will prevent the agps data from being downloaded if it is on."
"This requires a data connection. It will use 100 bytes (1/10 of 1Kilobyte) when accessing the PDE servers."
Update! This Works without connecting to data!
Go to your Comm Manager, switch to Flight Mode, switch back to Phone mode, launch your GPS program.
Works every time for me so far. I have tried TomTom and Garmin so far.

Now what have you DONE? Have you applied the TITAN aGPS fix found in the WIKI (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=VerizonAGPSFix) ?

BTW, why a custom ROM when Telus has a pretty solid GPS rom out?
I also BELIEVE this is the correct IP and Port for Telus. I found it at this link from PPCGEEKS... (http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=36377&highlight=Bell+aGPS)

I'm no expert by any means but I have my Titan (xv6800 for Verizon) unlocked and GPS working fine. The difference I see from yours is your radio. I have radio 3.42.50. If I am not mistaken this is the current recommended radio for GPS capability. You also should install the GC Verizon aGPS cab to prime the GPS. The cab just uses your internet connection to find the current locations of the satellites which provides a 5-15 second lock in most cases. Ill attach the cab so you can install it. Also make sure that Google maps is manually set to use "com 4" and a baud rate of "4800". As far as the "Live" and "Valhalla" problem, I'm not sure because I haven't used either one. Also before you install that radio, make sure your rom is compatible with that radio. Again I am in no means an expert, just a student learning from these forums. Hope this helps.

I was having problems with my GPS as well where it would not lock on no matter how long I waited. I did not have this problem when I first got my phone and I'm not sure when the bug was introduced. None of the software fixes worked for me, including the ones discussed here, and the problem persisted across all ROMS, including stock.
Finally I found someone in a forum that recommended removing the battery while the phone was on. I was hesitant to do this for obvious reasons, but my frusteration drove me to desparation and I tried it. To my surprise the GPS works good as ever and typically locks onto my location in less than 10 seconds. Obviously if you can get the software fix to work for you, this is better, but this was the only thing that worked for me. Hopefully this will help someone else.

I already set ATT=0 and used Faster Fix, but still locking/fixing is very slow, sometimes taking hours.
Could this have anything to do with my location? I am in China now, have unlocked the phone so using on a local carrier. Last time I was in the US (using it with ATT) it worked great.
Solved - SGH-I777 GPS fix
The sirfgps.conf ATT_NETWORK_OPERATOR=0 did nothing for me on my AT&T SGH-I777.
I got that GPS fix app and gps worked but its full of spam adverts that show on your notification bar. They appear with a star infront of the spam advert.
I fixed it the old fashion way. By remembering how I fixed my AT&T Galaxy I gps issue.
in /etc/sirfgps.conf leave att_network_operator=1
change, SSL_ENABLED=1
save and exit
in /etc/gps.conf change the following:
SUPL_HOST=www.spirent-ics.com
SUPL_PORT=7275
save and exit.
now I get 7 second gps lock in Miami Fl.

I was having problems with my GPS as well where it would not lock on no matter how long I waited. I did not have this problem when I first got my phone and I'm not sure when the bug was introduced. None of the software fixes worked for me, including the ones discussed here, and the problem persisted across all ROMS, including stock.
Finally I found someone in a forum that recommended removing the battery while the phone was on. I was hesitant to do this for obvious reasons, but my frusteration drove me to desparation and I tried it. To my surprise the GPS works good as ever and typically locks onto my location in less than 10 seconds. Obviously if you can get the software fix to work for you, this is better, but this was the only thing that worked for me. Hopefully this will help someone else.
