    Default Regarding GPS support in Indian A780 models.

    I read in one of the thread in this forum, that indian models A780 do not have the GPS hardware also. I know that I can reimage with a new firmware with GPS support. But is there a specific hardware for GPS thats missing?

    Is there a way to figure out if my phone has the GPS hardware?

    PS: I asked this question in another thread, but I am not sure if thats the right thread to ask this. Please reply or point me to the appropriate thread.

    I have both versions of A780. With and w/o GPS.
    You must remove the keyboard, please search forum for howto,
    then you will see a square flat metal cover plate of approx. 25x10x5 mm.
    With GPS you see smd-parts inside the box, w/o GPS there are no parts.
