    Hi, idk if this has been discussed before.. but I have a storm 9530 on Cricket, and its fine for just around town, but I don't have a GPS, google maps or BBmaps don't work, neither do gpsed or other apps.

    do i even have GPS, is there a way to unlock it or something?

    Go to Options > Advanced Options > GPS.

    Make sure Location is On (not just 911).

    The GPS function should work out of the box with google maps or blackberry maps. But if its not getting a signal in those programs, its possible cricket is blocking the GPS and forcing you to use their GPS software for monthly charges
