Hello guys,
two questions:
1) do you know any application that work with GPS and can notify me when i'm at certain coordinates.
2) maybe this question is already answered...why in the forum homepage (forum.xda-developers.com) there isn't a section for the SAMSUNG SGH-i780 smartphone?
Sorry for my english
Thank you...
1) I don't know but you made me curious about how you would use that ! please explain
2) I guess coz it's not a HTC phone.... I would really like xda-dev to expand to "ppc-developers"... melting-pot is good !

Hello lastnikita,
1) the applicationa i mean is an application that should be able to set a position specifying the coordinates (nmea standard), then when i will be in that place/position an alarm should be activated. Something similar...
2) i didn't know that this forum was for htc only...sob!!!
P.S.:
i read about many ROMs available here, but i'd like to wait some official update to windows 6.1 before to upgrade my current ROM. My i780 is too young to be cracked !!!

How please ? Do you mean with POIs ? I'm not sure if that would suit his needs.
I need to be warned when i'm in certain place in order to some actions, like send sms automatically, or get an alarm remind me to do something...
Location based application...
Is this what you like to know?
PulceRM
phonealarm maybe, or gpstoday
well I was just wondering about the USE you will make of it, not how it works
I've been thinking about this but I can't see any real concrete stuff I could do with that ! Anyway, it would involve your GPS is on all the time, could be pretty battery-hungry..
hi guys,
i really enjoy using my diamond with lots of tweaks and so on but there´s one thing left ( maybe the most important !!! ) :
I need to see all upcoming events ( next 2-3 days ? ) at the home screen, there are two at maximum and thats really annoying...
Is there any developer who knows a soloution ?
thanks for reply,
Sebastian...
btw:
sorry for my bad english...
Oh yes, I would really appreciate this aswell!
Search around for "Second Today"
Same here, if anyone knows a solution...
Refresh appointment on home tab
Hi,
I have the problem that sometimes no appointment is shown on the home tab although there are appointment for this day in calender .
Sometimes the home-tab shows appointment from past (the day before) .
If I edit an appointment in the calender, the appointment on the home tab refresh and everything is correct .
Im using original HTC-Rom 1.93 GER with some own graphics-manila-files created with Manila editor.
Any idea?

Try TodayAgenda V1.1.0 - at http://pocketpcfreewares.com/en/index.php?soft=1475.
It is a great today plugin which shows appointments, tasks - Very customizeable and I have mine showing appointments up to a week in advance. It work's very well on my HTC Touch Elf WM 6.0. I added the RL Calendar to the same page so that I have a calender above it and appointments showing beneath. All as one page in ultimateLaunch.
I see a lot of smarties here trying to be all ^%$%.
What he is asking for, as well as I need, is to be able to see more upcoming appointments while the TF3D is ON .... got it. Please read before you guys get all smart.
The apps you suggested do not work work, well they do, but do not show up with TF3D ON.
Perhaps there is some registry tweak that can allow to see like today+next 7 days appointments.

Hey buddy. There is no need to get rude. Everyone here is just trying to be helpful, geez. What is your problem.
By the way, the original question was not asking specifically for something that would work while TF3D is on specifically and since I do not have a Diamond, I would have no way of knowing what would work for you or not. I was only pointing to a possible sollution as I am sure everyone else was. Notice in my post I actually metioned working on HTC TOUCH ELF WM 6.0.
Anyway, Good Luck finding what you need.

Anybody knows the answer? Maybe only HTC staff knows. Second Today works but it is just a workaround by adding a today screen so as to avoid the TF3D screen. Like the 2USU thing (a workaround for locking the screen with incoming calls), it's not a clean solution. I don't know what other fellow diamondiers feel, but I want a clear cut solution direct from TF3D, not to switch to another screen/program/interface to get around (and I want to see everything from the TF3D screen even when it's locked and backlight is off and I don't need to unlock the screen and then press another button to see it). But yes, this has been a F-Q but still no A (as in FAQ) yet. It seems to be a real simple issue that most of us will come across and intuitively think it's easy to solve (by a registry tweak or so) but yet no solution comes up yet. It's a bit frustrating....

You seen the movie Tropic Thunder? You know Tom Cruises' part in that, when he talks to the Flaming Dragon guys for the first time through the phone? Well, that's what I'd love to do to you now.
Yes, maybe there is a tweek (sic) that can do that with "TF3D ON" (did you know that the word 'on' is officially written uncapitalised?), and yes, Second Today is a workaround (which by the way, works with TF3D "ON"); however, since topics requesting this functionality for TF3D started back in 1931 you would think that if such a tweek (sic) existed, somebody smarter than you would've found it by now. And seeing this forum now has 869015 members, that makes 869014 members smarter than you - and none of them has ever found this elusive 'tweek' since 1931.
So, yeah, maybe there is. Go find it!

thx sushilange, but i´ve already searched all threads ! i haven´t found a possibility to integrate a calendar with the touchflo3d home screen...
By the way, it would be nice to submit a link instead of beefing...
I would also like to know if theres a way to see at least 3-4 upcomming events in my calnder in the TF3D home screen. Would be super!
Any one for a cup of coffe or 5? Just bring the ap and ill buy you one!...or =)
Kind regards, Per, from Sweden! yeah!

Wat een arrogante post... Het blijkt maar weer dat eikels niet alleen aan bomen hangen...
I am also looking forward for this kind of application which show 7 days appointments.
Thanks for your efforts.

It seems to be spanish and the idea is to use SecondToday from http://www.chi-tai.info/cs_wm_tools_im_cs.htm.
How about making an app that changes the today screen when you rotate the device?
So when it's in portrait you have TF3d and when it's in landscape you can have Calendar+ or whatever other plugins you want?
Hi,
i am playing arround with the G1 now for a while, but I can't figure out a way, how to see the gps info.
I want to see the count of satalites and how strong each of one is received.
On my HTC Diamond I was able to see it over tomtom.
Is there something similar programm i can use to see this information?
I tried AndNav but it looks like not to have this information build in.
nothing yet.
App that shows most GPS info is Here I Am.
Edit: it seems that someone came up withc exactly what you are looking for -- GPS Status.
Check out "GPS Status", it does exactly what you want with some cool extras.
Hey,
wow thanks.
Looks like its really exactly what i was looking for
thank you

Really no more lag ?
Anybody knows, where can we can find this version ?
Thanks for this news man.
I just checked TomTom Home => but there are no updates for me.
I have Version7.910(9185) installed.
btw: I hope you know what GPS Lag means.
You make 90 degree Curve and on the Display it shows up in 2-3 sec.
Is it possible to have a cruise-ripped version of this build? Or is it warez related? :?
I'm using 7.910(9185) with almost zero lag. My true position is reflected by the tip of the arrow, not the centre but map response on tight corners is perfectly adequate for navigation and almost as good as the Navteq system fitted to my car.
what number/versions of maps do work with tomtom7.915.916?
Could you please share? If it's still a free soft.
Thats the Problem - your GPS position in TomTum shuld NOT be the top of the Arrow.
And be honest, how accurate is it in a curve or a Roundabout.
I use my Diamond while driving with an external bluetooth mouse and it is 5m accurate an zero lag.
The Problem is imho not the Software but the way qualcomm is pre-processing the NMEA Data.
Same experience for me
No more lags, fast fix. Before; I sometimes had to wait 20 min for a fix. Now 1-2 min. Must say I updated rom (_NLD_2.03.) and TomTom together.
here is a RS link for the new tomtom
MOD EDIT: No warez
Jut cant figure out how to install to internal memory. Link Include QVGA and VGA
for sure i know what a lag is, i use a smartphone since tomtom 5 on my first qtek...and diamnod is my 11th smartphone so if i say i have a lag i assume to know what i say
i also never post a link because of respect of rules in xda-dev ! google is the friends of all of us for testing purpose only
but i thought it was a good information to share because i really have no lags with this version and my diamond, where i am with my car is correct with the tomtom from NOW
maybe it could be the same for you, for me it's ok i can say
I'm using version 7.450.9028.
How can I upgrade to the lastest version?
Thanks
Installed on HD, the lag is minor than other versions, but still exists
Works great
hi devilmc,
for me nothing special to do, just installed over the old one, start it, internal gps correctly seen in my settings, fix very quick
br
Edit : between your message and your modification seems to be ok, that why i edit also

Did you have to reactivate your maps?
nothing about it just install and it's ok
Surely there must always be a lag of some size or other, otherwise Tomtom will have to predict where you are going? And I presume the lag time must increase with speed, as the processing time must be standard no matter how fast you are going?
Anyway I've been using version 7.450.9028 with 720.1802 maps for some time, and, on a straight road my car is more or less at the point of the arrow at 70mph, so I will try this new version and see how much better it is
yes sure you are right, but i can say than with some pna of my friends tested yesterday (one tomtom 920, one garmin) the diamond and this tomtom is the same, it's a normal software for gps now and no frustrations anymore.
What this version seems to never do :
the coffee
predict where you will be one minutes after in the future

Correct size of POI:s Icons
Hi!
First of all, TomTom for Diamond has been concidered NOT to be warez in the past. Why the change?
Second, in the 7.915.916 at last tha POI iocns does show up in the "normal" size as in the QVGA versions. Big thanks TomTom!
Third, I also wanted an installation on the interna storage. But since there was'nt any way to change during the installation, I simply moved all the files and maps, besides CurrenMap and UserPatch in Program/Navigator to the internal memory and created a Program/Navigator folder. Works nice, just the icon under programs now is wrongly linked and needs to be changed.
Needing help again from my fave community ....
Long story made short; I'm Italian but now live in Egypt, some of you may or may not know that Egypt prohibited any kind of gps map.
what I was looking for was a gps application that would tracK and\or record my route, to then reproduce it as if on a map ( turn left, right etc....)
Is there any app (maybe tomtom or igo or garmin ) capable of doing this.
I searched and found a prog called trackr! but 1 its format is .gpx (not compatible with tomtom for ex.) plus it does part of the job online !
thnx in advance everybody !
EDIT: I read around and it seems igo can record ur route and of course guide u back through it...yet it won't launch without a map, is there a base map of africa for example ? , i really know there is no egypt map, i just want to record my "offroad" routes!
You can get fitness apps that will track where you run or cycle via gps (cant remember names off the top of my head just now sorry) they track where you run/walk/cycle and I guess go by car (?)... not sure if they are what you are after but sounds like it might be...
thnx for the reply...really don't know if that will help cause actually i don't know if those will give any kind of "voice" assistance like a standard gps ....again thnx
Hi,
I was looking for GPS Software a couple of month ago. I needed a tool for tracking and calibrating an image (maps, pics and so on). So you can scan a paper map and bulid your own map.
I only found one program. It called GLOPUS. (www.glopus.de) But it is only aviable in german. But it hasn't got any voice command or navigation function. It just shows the route on the selfmade map and other POI (if you have the coordinates).
Bye
donpepe23
wow....pity it's in german cause that sounds gr8...thought yet far from what i need, i'm sure somewhere there is a program that would just track my route to a place and guide me back to it
I tried another app "trackme" I think maybe this is what i need but its not working, it gives a net framework error though i', on touch-it 4.1 rc1 rom which has it pre-installed !!
I dont think it will be trouble if I use my X1 with Garmin in Egypt... do you??
Lots of friends from Egypt are getting thier Mobiles from outside because of the stupid GPS ban... I dont get it why is it banned there while I can still see everything on google maps!
no it will not be trouble, but u'll find no maps ...that's the whole point ....i really don't get why their banning it, that's not my problem, i just want to have fun with my gps !!
