GPS 8350i Curve on CDMA blocking phone calls when receiving coords - LBS Lab+

I'm currently working mainly with the LBS Lab, haven't change too much of the code. I just added a http Post method to upload the coordinates to a webserver.  I am testing the application mostly on a Blackberry Curve 8350i Mike Iden smartphone.  I have noticed that when the application is receiving cooridinates, phone calls are blocked. When I call the phone I get short rings.  I have looked all over the developer docs, videos, and forums, and cannot see any thread similar.  I was wondering if anyone could help me. Do I have to implement some code to detect a phone call? As I am currently aware this shouldn't have to be done.  Could it be the CDMA network? or the 8350i? Http? GPS? or have to add handler code? Any help and information greatly appreciated.

Thanks

-Adam

Re: GPS 8350i Curve on CDMA blocking phone calls when receiving coords - LBS Lab+

I took a look at those links, don't see anything about blocking phone calls. I know that the 8703e and 7103 blocks the voice portion of the phone when obtaining GPS Fix. But Im testing on a blackberry 8830 mike iden smartphone.. If im missing something.. let me know, ill be back..

Thanks

Ok, so I set the interval for every 2 minutes rather than every 5 seconds.  Now the phone calls are going through. However we're not seeing a HTTP Post able to get through while a phone call is active. Is this normal?

Thanks
