I have not. I can only commiserate with you on the lack of this functionality. Must be BIG $$ to be made in VZNav!

I have a perplexing question I have a blackberry Storm running on Alltel. i can not get a GPS lock with anything and I even tried the GPSone settings for Alltel and I am about to try the Verizon settings since the phone still thinks its on the VZW setup. any ideas?

okay so far its a no go with the Verizon settings for my gps, and I was dumb and did not write down the original Storm gpsone settings anybody have this?

works good for me i am in my room and it found me

...a few ?? -

cant get my gps to work with the BBmaps, google or the Nav4Al i downloaded..read some of the forums - device gps is on and have version 4.5(is there a newer version)...what gives??

thanks

Ditto here, I can't get it to work with BBMaps. I had it working a couple of months ago, but I've been through 2 more phones in the meantime (1 through insurance, new one yesterday from the Verizon Store because the previous one stopped making calls).

I have the 8330 Curve. I went into Advanced Options and made sure that Data Source = "Device GPS" and GPS Services = "Location On" The OS is 4.5.0.77. When I open BB Maps, GPS Source = "Internal GPS" (not sure if this may be the issue). When I try to enable GPS Navigation, I get the "Searching for satellites.." message, but it never finds any or shows me my location.

Like I said, I'd had it working on a previous incarnation of the phone, but it's been a couple of months. Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Edit: I have not tried making the changes suggested in the link to HowardForums.

you have to let it sit for a bit to find the sats. And .77 is a very old OS you may want to consider upgrading. I am on .160 on my 8330

sorry for being off topic but, where can i get other map or gps apps(google maps).
do i have to accesss these sites through my phone?

nervermind.found the sticky thread. should have kept searching before i asked. thanks anyway.

Has anyone actually got Google Maps to work with the VZW GPS? I want the precise GPS not the triangulation guestimate. I also prefer Google Maps to other map apps out there.

Any help is appreciated - I'm running an 8330 on VZW with 4.5.0.77 installed.

Thanks.
