I am writing an application for a VX-9800 (Brew 3.1.2.42) that simply does a single GPS acquisition. I first call SetGPSConfig and set the mode to ONE_SHOT, and then I call GetGPSInfo. When the call back function is executed the contents of the GPSInfo data structure has some interesting results:

If I set the VX-9800 location to E-911 only, dwTimeStamp looks OK, but the status comes back as 0x100001 (general failure) and no Lat/Long data. If I set the phone to Location mode, dwTimeStamp = 0 and status = 0x100007 (link failure). When I make the call to GetGPSInfo, I see little arrows going back and forth between the locator icon and the network icon, so it looks like it's communicating with the network. I am certain that GPS signal is strong because I am testing this in an area where the C/No of the GPS signal is ~50 dB-Hz.

I received some sample GPS code from someone I know at QualComm, but it doesn't seem to work either. Is there something else I should do or do I need to pay Verizon (my carrier) for extra service? Ultimately, I need to be able to do assisted GPS locating.

Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
