First of all I would like thank Skywing for writing this GPS Application
Gateway for the xv6800 phone with stock rom or upgraded MR1 rom..
This thread is to show my thanks and to help new ppl like myself
find this app easer.. It took me about haft a day searching two forums
just to find what I was looking for .. so I hope this will help other
new ppl find what they are looking for much easer ..
Again this application was written by “Skywing” and someone wrote
the easy install CAB for his app .. also like thank “gc14“ for writing
the tutorial ..
This Application aGPS aka GPS Server aka (Valhalla Legends GPSServer.cab)
Will allow your 100% stock rom or MR1 rom on your xv6800 Phone
to access GPS signal via 3rd party application e.g. MS Live search, Google maps etc..
without the need to unlock the phone or do anything to the phone other than
simply loading the GPSServer.cab file ..
For step-by-step install info. go to: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=VerizonAGPSFix
To download the CAB go to: http://rapidshare.com/files/165096506/Valhalla_Legends_GPSServer.cab
Show your thanks to Skywing, go to his thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=424387
I have personal testing this code on my xv6800 with stock ROM, then I
upgraded to the MR1 ROM from HTC for the xv6800 with WM 6.1 and
install the GPSServer.cab and it works perfect for both ROMs without
doing any unlocking or running anything else other then just the GPSServer.cab
BTW for anyone with the stock ROM running WM 6.0 and would like to
upgrade to Windows Mobile 6.1 .. you can download the MR1 ROM direly
from HTC
Again this is the, Verizon XV6800 ROM MR1
Release Date: 2008-08-23

If this link does not work you may need to set your “country” first, (top right of the page “select country” set to “United States”
wow .. update: also found out that gc14 made the CAB file as well..
Thanks again gc14

Thanks! It works very good with Google Maps
Is your WIFI works with WM6.1? After I installed MR1, my WIFI is not working anymore. I hope you might be able to help me.
TIA
to all that created this thank you, works flawless on the stock mr2 rom
can't get it to work..
Hi all! I followed this method a while back and had Google maps working great for quite some time! This past weekend I tried to use it with GPS and it couldn't find any satellites. I figured it was maybe too much cloud cover or other interference related to my location. Anyhow, yesterday I updated my XV6800 to MR2, installed the latest Google maps (3.0.0.12) and still cannot get it to find any satellites. after playing with the COM ports and location setting (currently COM4 and Loc ON) without success I installed GPS Toggle, which also cannot find any satellites.
Anyone have any suggestions to get this working again? Does this even work with MR2? I'd be happy to go back to MR1, though MR2 seems to be a little smoother and faster.
Thanks!

thanks drewcam888. I'll check it out this afternoon and let you know how I make out.
BTW, I was looking around my device and I found a different version of gpsapi.dll (hidden) in the Windows directory. I'm thinking this may be the problem. It won't let me modify it though, as it's a system file. I can view it using SKTools, but not modify it.
Can you recommend a file manager program that'll let me move / copy / replace system files?
Thanks!
You can't modify a rom file or one that is created by the rom itself. Or at least I don't know how
Hello,
I'm pretty new here and new to the XV6800. I have a rom version that I downloaded from htc site that under device info reads 3.57.605.1 I don't know what MR1 or MR2 is or is mine an MR3?? Also I have a Radio version of 3.37.75?? My question is can I install this to get GPS or AGPS working on my device? Do I have to install a different radio to get it working?
Thanks,
Chris

Read the thread for a while that drewcam8888 lists above "adapter program to ......" and then make sure you change the registry settings as it describes for Valhalla in the posts from the past couple of days. I believe I posted #627 which has the places to edit for Valhalla. Listen to what others say to make sure you have everything right.
mine failed around the same time but using a different set of cab files which had worked flawlessly on both previous installs of MR1 . Is this perhaps something from verizon?....Anyway having not installed from a wrar file before how do you install the valhalla cab when the redirects disconnect from the server?
I have a xv6800 and i got it last week, the person that i got it from updated the rom. a couple days ago i cleared the storage, which i guess is a hard reset, but i wanted to know if that resets my Rom

Hello all new here.
I have a Tmobile branded Sapphire..i just found this out..that i have been using for about three weeks and i have some questions.
First...do i want to root my device and is it possible?
Second..certain paid apps are not available to me..such as Camera Zoom. This app does not show up in any search or by using a bar code reader on the web site. Others can see this app, i cannot. And yes i have bought other paid apps such as Open Home with no problem.
I also cannot update my Google Maps to the new version
Heres what my device says under settings about phone..
model number..Tmobile Opal
Firmware 1.5
Build Number..opal-userdebug 1.5 CRB2 144365 test-keys
Can someone explain to me what the build numbers actually mean?...I was told because of my build number I was unable to ungrade my Google Maps.
Thanks for your help.
hello arc068. Use version 0.93 a month on my tattoo and it's fine. installing the 1.02 everything works except the market that will not start. are the only one having this problem?
sorry for my english but is translated with google.
I have problem with market too. I used for a long time cyanogenmod7 but since market update to version 2.3.6 i couldn't download anything. Today I installed nfinity 1.02 , first time same problem. Second time I create a new google account and at the begining everything seems to be OK but later same thing. I think the problem is at the market and not in ROMs. I hope that all who have this problem find a solution.Android might become expensive as Windows. Shame for Google.
Also trying to uninstall market updates wont work couse it has some kind of auto update thing and always update to 2.3.6 version.
i have problem with market
it always FC when i cilck in JUST IN menu
i use nfinity 1.0.2
Hi Guys,
I bought my flip in china and there is no android market preinstalled in the phone. I only have some kind like chinese android market. can we just install it with the .apk or cannot?
Thank's for the help
no you need to flash an sbf file from a country that has market support
get one from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=867051
you will also need rsdlite and the drivers wich you can get from moto website
