Have a similar model from Sprint. The only 3rd party software that has worked is opera mini. Can't even do USSD codes. :(
Lemme know when you get a work around.

Hi,

Am trying to get the gps for the verizon wireless branded blackberry 8830 to work with little success. . .  .from research I have learnt that verizon disabled it @ the software level but I got into the engineering screens and switched it on but google maps still cant use it. . .anyone with similar experience or a workaround?
