    Just curious if anyone else has encountered this problem and if anyone's found a resolution.

    Our office had a bunch of former Alltel phones/accounts and a couple of Verizon accounts. Consolidated them all into a small biz plan. Replaced all of the phones with VZ Tours. Here's where things get interesting: All of the Tours on formerly-Alltel #s have GPS crippled, all of the VZ-native #s work fine.

    One more interesting fact: Putting the Tours on VZ-native accounts DOES NOT restore GPS function. Putting a working Tour on a former Alltel # does appear to cripple the GPS in the traditional Alltel fashion.

    Anyone know what's going on here or how to get around this? GPS is a function we've used since the Alltel days. Missing it with some of the apps we use.

    FWIW I've spent 4+ hrs straight on the phone with VZ on this one before they finally admitted it was a problem. Unfortunately no resolution.
