Default Missing GPS menu option on 8130

Please Login to Remove!

I have an 8130 and I seems to be missing some menu options when I go to the Options>Advanced>GPS. The only option I have is GPS Data Source set to Device GPS and GPS Services set to On. The documentation talks about being able to refresh the GPS location and be able to see my coordinates from that option screen but the refresh option is not available on the menu. What am I doing wrong? The GPS works fine within Blackberry maps.

I think you have to have VZNav installed and be paying the monthly VZNav service fee ($9.95) for your internal GPS to be enabled and show those additional features on Verizon Pearls.

Does Bell also lock-out the internal GPS unless you are paying an additional fee, like Verizon?

The GPS is enabled and working with Bell with no additional fee. For some reason I cannot get the refresh location option to show up in that GPS option menu. Outside of that the GPS works fine with Blackberry map and Google map.
