Nobody's answering your question! Maybe I can expand it: is there any other quick GPS working with the Qualcomm chip? Shurely someone has done something somwhere in the world...

Hi all,
A few days ago I bought a P3600 for my wife. I have a TyTN and read the thread about Hermes&GPS. On the specs I saw the same processor is in the P3600 as in the TyTN, so both are GPS-able.
On a flyer, http://www.europe.htc.com/z/pdf/products/HTC_PRODUCT_BROCHURE_V2_111006.pdf, I saw GPS will be enabled on the P3600 later.
So I took the Hermes-cab to enable GPS on the Hermes.
Now I have GPS working on the Trinity P3600. I know it is working, because VisualGPDce shows methe signals. I aso got a fix. Only TomTom does not see the GPS-signal.
What do I have to do to enable the signal with TomTom?

Actually you miss something it actually said "internal GPS antenna" see page 13 on all product specs.
I am just wodering if I want to buy this phone or the coming Eten X800.

Yeap, you're right Missed that one, but anyway we have finaly got it, officialy
... and yes, buy Trinity, you will have a lot of phone with it
This subject is spread out in various forums (Kaiser, Trinity, ...) so I suggest to put it all together here.
Is it possible to migrate the WM6 Kaiser Quick GPS quick fix program to the Trinity ?
I found some who did it with the Kaiser WM6 Italian version, however, they didn't get it to work, certainly requires more registry tweeks.
Any ideas anyone?
And yes, everybody knows that the p3300 version quickfix will not work, because it's for Sirf III only. That's why we're looking at Kaiser, even if it's not exactly the same qualcom chip.
yeah i wish we could get this program working on the trinity too!
i always thought that my htc hermes did not have gps and that only the successor, tytn II does (which my brother has)..but then i noticed this in a wiki..
Most recently, it was discovered that the TyTN has an onboard GPS navigation chip, but with the antenna connection shorted out and drivers omitted from the ROM, the chip is rendered useless.

is there a way to enable the gps?

No, do a quick search and you'll find the thread which discussed the development. As said in the wiki the chip is rendered useless due to the shorts on the board and no antenna.
However, with a bluetooth GPS reciever and some navigation software (I've got Tomtom 6) you too can have GPS on your Hermes.....
Cheers...

people _were_ excited about this a couple years ago, as you could have found in the Hermes wiki, the conclusion is that there's no way to enable GPS, HTC smashed the GPS chip in each Hermes unit with a hammer before they ship it out so it's not usable at all.
Hi all,
I am thinking about buying a used Pharos. I would like to know which GPS chip is built in - is it a SIRF III or something else like MTK or Venus?
Which experiences do you have regarding the sensitivity and the precision of the GPS? Is it comparable to a SIRFIII Bluetooth receiver?
hi
htc pharos am equipped with a head of gps inserted
configure gps external com4
maretiel com2 4800
and in software gps : gps inserted ou other MNA com4
see you ,
That does not answer my question: Which GPS chipset is built in?
Anyhow, next week I have my Pharos and can find out myself...
i thought it had a sirfstar III chip... but not sure

It is the SIRF III.
Hi,
I'd like to know if the HTC HD2 supports the following when used as a GPS navigation device (using the right software of course):
1. EGNOS (WAAS in the US) - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egnos
2. Instant Fix II - sirf.com/products/location2_services.html
3. TMC - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traffic_Message_Channel
Thanks for any input!
Regards,
mrcool
as starters, the hd2 doesn't have a sirf chipset (I wish it had....), so it would be no to point 2)
there is no tmc device built-in
to the chip: my hd2 is faster and more accurate than my navigon 7210 with a sirf chip

second that
Thanks for the answers! I had no idea that Instant Fix II is exclusive to Sirf. Just used their website as a link because it was one of the first Google results!
Pity that TMC is not included...
Does anybody know about EGNOS/WAAS capabilities?
