Some have said that they need a GPS starter program to turn on the GPS with Garmin software, some have said they don't. You might be in the first category.

Im going to read this -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=363431&highlight=gps+starter ad go from there.

Of all the Roms I've tried so far on the Titan; dcd 2 and radio 3.27 is the best.
GPS is working well. The phone has not locked up or freeze while bluetooth is on; bluetooth is working well Voice Command. Using 65%-70% memory at all times.
Excellent rom dcd - thank you!!
One question: I am current using dcd rom 2 BETA; any changes made that should make me install non-beta???? Thanks.
Provider?
You should say which provider you have with your Titan. Some folks with VZW had issues with authentication or other troubles, some on VZW had no issues at all. So which provider do you have that all is working well, I know I want to know.
And Dcd has now released his 2.1.0 rom with Windows Mobile 6.1...
mine is working pretty good to, Sprint with 2.0.0 Beta. The only real problem I've seen is that sometimes after closing a program thats running GPS the phone gets reeeeeaaaal slow for a minute, or sometimes freezes up.
using sprint; sorry i forgot to mention.
The TELUS one is working flawless. Excelent job. No freez, all option are working ;-) thanks
With the beta it would literally take me about 5 min just to find service....data was real flakey too. Not sure if it was the rom...radio...or what. With the 2.1.0 rom I get services as soon as the device comes up after a soft reset. Data is 100X better for some reason. Anyway....thx!
There is no Java on my phone after upgrading to this rom. I cant install google maps or opera mini. What can I do?
hi, ive been searching the threads for days, and cant figure out why the gps never pickes up a signal. i have an xv6800 verizon. dcd 3.2.3 rom, radio 3.42.30 garmin mobile xt, and tried tomom 7 (both installed fine). installed the carrier cab, and gps fix, and used the gps on off app, also i have the location setting to on and not 911 only what else can i do.
thanks in advance

I would get a program that shows the NMEA messages like GeoScout and see if you are even getting anything. Could be your GPS chip is hosed. Good luck sending that back in if it didn't come with it turned on like from Verizon. If you are in a clear space and you have reset the phone and you get no NMEA messages then I would think that either you have a bad flash and to start over or your GPS chip is bad.
Mine was acting similar which was every frustrating. SO tonight I flashed the new radio 3.42.50 and it did not help. I then reflashed DCD 3.2.5 and my GPS magically started to work again. I now lock 4 satellites from inside my house in about 15 seconds. The only bad thing is it shows my location in Gmap and Live about 10 blocks off. If I do a soft reset it has the correct location. If I exit maps and relaunch it is off 10 blocks or so again. No big deal really, I'm just happy it's working again.

upgrade your radio to 3.42.50
OK all, I have just read inescpbl's post regarding his unfortunate upgrades, and I'm happy to say I didn't bung things up the same way, but more want to get your thoughts on my P4000's current state, and if there are any further updates that could smooth things over.
Basically, I did the following:
Upgraded bootloader to 2.40
Installed Radio 3.39
Installed No2chem's latest
Nothing worked.
Installed DCD 3.2.3
Installed Radio 3.42.50
Installed Telus CAB to allow for internet
Was able to surf internet and use google maps
Updated programming and PRL with *22803
Now, I can make calls but internet is like a yo-yo, with 90% of the time not working. When it does, Google Maps is unable to receive GPS satellites.
My question is, after all of this, the setup feels buggy. Is there something I have missed or should do?
Thanks in advance to anyone with their 2 cents to spare...
I've never had to update prl. Im with telus too. only thing i've done other than flash new roms is do the GC14 gps fix. Never had a problem with the P4000 being 'buggy' as you say it.
Hey all. I have DCDs 3.2.6 ROM, 3.42.50 radio, and iGO8 navigation software installed on my Verizon XV6800. I can receive and lock GPS in about 5-7 minutes using the Holux GPS Viewer v1.5, however if I lock GPS and navigate using the iGO8 software, if the unit ever loses GPS lock the entire phone freezes up. This happens every time i'm using iGO8 and I go inside, block the GPS signal for a second, etc. Very frustrating to have to pop out the battery every time i'm using iGO8, any ideas what I should look for to troubleshoot?
Thanks.
not sure if astro launcher is compatable with that app but it works great with tom tom and it restablishes a signal when i power down and then back up

How are able to run iGo8 on a 6800? I dont believe there was enough RAM to get it to run smoothly, and it would lock up all the time. Just what I heard over at Ppcgeeks.
Steve
I have the exact same setup and i run iGO8 just fine. Depending on my build or rom that I use, it will load up immediately after install, but since ive been using 207XXX builds, I have to reboot after install. I used to us Astrolauncher, but i have fallen in love with GPS toggle ... especially the latest version that shows the sats on the screen. Sweet!
I run OnCourse8 which is really like iGo8 and it works flawlessly. Either use Baf's GPS Toggle or Astrolauncher to prime for fast locks on a xv6800. I'm also running radio 3.39.10 which seems to work alot better for GPS in my area.
I have an alltel device with a verizon radio and NFSfan rom.
I've tried, iGo, Google Maps and now TomTom in standalone GPS with no success whatsoever.
What am I doing wrong?
did you install the alltell provisioning cab in the attachments on the first post of the NFSFAN thread? that is needed to make the GPS work. be sure to soft reset after & it should work.
I'm pretty sure I did.
I installed again and soft reset to still no avail on google maps or tomtom.
Try installing quickgps. It definitely helps. This is the version that works with NFSFAN's rom.

Still no luck with finding satellites. Says poor reception or no GPS device found.
