Hi,
I am using 20070511_LVSW_Trinity_WM6_v2.0.0.5 however , the quickgps isn't in there. Can anyone give me a link where I can download it or extract me that CAB file out of an EXT. ROM of the P3300 ?
Thanks for the help, I appreciate that.
Cheers
Micman
Any particular reason why you want it? It is designed for the P3300 ratehr than the P3600.
All our tests on 4WM seem to suggest it makes little or no difference at all to the TTFF times, and uses GPRS data in the process
again, placebo effect...
@NeilM
Well pretty easy, it takes about 5 minutes when I start TomTom to catch the satellites.
Unless you have another solution for me ?
Thanks
Micman
Yes you could put a GPS quickfix sticker on your P3600. Works just like those reception improvement / bad waves blocking stickers...

That is a little slow by current standards, but not bad. You do need to make sure you have a clear view of the sky when obtaining first fix. Subsequent fixes ought to be quicker.
As I said above, QuickGPS makes little difference, and is also designed for the P3300 which uses a SirfStar GPS chipset, rather than the P3600 which uses the Qualcomm chipset.
if you guys think that the quickfix programs has no effect on the A-GPS chip found on the trinity, then why do you think that HTC is going to include the same program on the upcoming HTC Kaiser which seems to use the same A-GPS chip ?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't A-GPS network dependant? What if mobile provider doesn't offer such services. Anyways, I find Tomtom takes a little long for TTF. I use GPSTest to acquire fix, then load up TomTom. Works for me, hopefully helps u.

HTC has improved time to first fix with WM6. Before I installed the official SEA WM6 ROM, it always took about 4 minutes, but now it's always under 2. I don't know what they did but there is obviously something (new radio?) that improves TFF.

While I believe the GPS chip of Kaiser is a Qualcomm, there's still a chance, and rumors btw, that it's actually a SiRF-III. I know it's weired - but no one is able to confirm anything on the Kaiser - even for those guys who already got one. The only thing for sure thus far is that existing SiRF-III utilities do NOT run on Kaiser - but still it can't proof that it's a Qualcomm or it's definitely not a SiRF.
BTW, mind you that the chip on the Kaiser is different from that on Trinity. So we don't have a conclusion here yet. And you know, HTC has the past history of disabling Trinity's GPS chip in its earliest roms releases - that's make speculations difficult.
Merely giving the program the same name of "quickgps" doesn't mean anything either. If it's a SiRF, then it's something natural; but if it's a Qualcomm, I bet they would still call it quickgps instead of something like "qualcomm quickgps" for sake of simplicity.
GPS of Kaiser is a GPSOne Qualcomm I've looked into Kaiser registry. That GPS is inside MSM7200 Chip of Kaiser.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver\Drivers\GPSOnePort]
"InterfaceType"="COMM"
"FriendlyName"="QualComm GpsOne Card, version 0.0"
"CommPort"="COM1:"
http://www.cdmatech.com/products/msm7200_chipset_solution.jsp
I think there are some little chance to port QuickGPS application from kaiser to trinity
For Guybrush
Hello,
Look at this documentation of the chipset qualcomm 6275 on p3600 :
http://www.cdmatech.com/products/msm6275_chipset_solution.jsp
gpsOne® position-location assisted-GPS (A-GPS) solution
So may be HTC have not delivered the driver for Gps One !!!
The question of "the p3600 have à Gps-one capability"
The Answer is YES !!!
Private69.
@++++
I know... theorically should be the same... but it's not sure that GPS Driver of Kaiser seem different from the one inside p3600... but I think there some little chances to make quick gps working also in p3600. I tried to port Quick GPS application, drivers, registry settings from Kaiser ROM but when I launch Quick GPS Application, it gaves me an error like "Cannot create empty document" and I haven't understand the cause but maybe i missed something and someone more expert than me can have a better luck doing it
So after all we might have a chance to import QuickGPS from the Kaiser to the Trinity effectively....
Let's work hard guys

Mate i indeed worry
because there is no bloody way to enable it! TOMTOM cant find it, when i hit the GPS icon in IPAQ WIreless it shows some help instead of activate de-activate...
some advice?
The solution for your TT6
Hi again,
If you do the registry hack then you have an icon in your Start/setings/system folder is it wright. If so then you tap on GPS icon and set up your GPS. GPS "Programs" set to NONE, "Hardware" set to COM7 and baudrate set to 57600, "Access" untick the "Manage GPS automatically" thats mean you must disable this function. This is it. Try this and TT6 must work on first try. The only bad thing is that you must be outside the house. Good luck.
Best regards,
Drahtman
P.S.: If you have English ROM for hw6915 please send us the link
Thanks mate,
Indeed i discovered yesterday after some 10 hours of fiddling that the GPS cannot be activated trought IPAQ Wireless (it only shows the status)
that the bloody gps icon is hidden in the registry (I also found an equalizer for the audio hehe)
and that TOmTom will force the GPS on once you have a map and after some 10 minutes will find satellites.
HP chat told me to send the unit for repairs (Good support dont they )
Anyway thanks it helped understand the virtual GPS feature, BTW mine is French version and has TT 5.3 not 6. and it gets along very well with WCE gps management
Heloo GPS man !
I am here for help. I learn a lot from this forum, so this is my payback to others with strange GPS problems.

Help needed please...
I'm using Garming XT as it is the only GPS soft I've find that I can upload my country's maps to (Argentina). The thing is that I'm unable to use the trinity build-in GPS because the soft tries to look for a Garmin device via bluetooth.
Can anyone help me by telling me if it possible to use the trinity's GPS or if there is any other soft that would be able to use the same map files as garmin does?
Thnx.
J.
Try using 4.10.40 version,it has abiliti to use the in-built GPS device.Works perfect on my Trinity
Could you tell me where you got Argentina maps? Haven't been able to find them anywhere.
I have the maps from argentina and I will be more than happy to share with you, reach me by private message.
The version I'm using is 4.10.40wp is it the same that you have Deki?
Yes.Go to Settings/System/Remote GPS/Disable and then put the tab on COM9.Click on enable and wait
Which tab? there's none, after I set the remote GPS on disable the soft says that I'm not allowed to connect with a Garmin GPS. Any ideas?
Try this...install org. app. Garmin and then put sw file in Garmin dir,without replacing the Que file.
Hi please can you post the app that you say, for use the build GPS.
Thanks
Look in PM
Sorry but where can I too get it ?

what is that you want? the software or the maps? private message me and I'll get you anything.

Is it possible, that it does not work, cause it was a dopod branded p3600?
Hey guys,
first post on this, what seems to be a great forum.
I recently bought the Jade and overall i'm very pleased with it.
Today I had some time to install gps software. I picked TomTom 7.450 because i like it more than Igo. The program itself is installed well but i just can't get the receiver activated.
I allready used several settings (disabled agps, 'built-in gps' or 'other nmea receiver' in tomtom, also with different baud rates) but it keeps saying i have a bad reception, it's waiting for a useable signal and it doesn't find any satellites.
I already installe the cab file i found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3031549&postcount=5 but that also doesn't seem to help anything.
Would someone be willing to give a step by step guide in how to get this thing fixed?
Secondly, can someone tell me what setting I should use in orde to still see the 'start button' when i'm using TomTom. With my last pda it remained there when TomTom was activated, so I could also use other programs but with the Jade i can't seem to find how to do this.
Sorry if there are some grammatical errors in this post, I'm from Belgium . Thanks in advance!
update:
i managed to get some signal and got a fix, but after about a minute it was lost again and it won't find it again.
Also I installed IgO8 but it won't start on my jade so I guess I'll have to do it with TomTom...
OK, let's try to find where is the problem .
First chceck your registry. Find out what is your settings in this path:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/HTC/SUPL AGPS
Set GPSMode to 1
Set EnableAGPS to 0
If you already installed that CAB, it should be like this. This is going to make your GPS fix slower but more accurate and reliable (or it seems to do that ).
Second, download and install GPS Tuner from http://www.gpstuner.com/ . This is a great GPS software for offroad navigation which I use when testing GPS recievers.
Do not allow it to set your GPS receiver automatically. Set your GPS in GPS Tuner to COM 4, baud rate 4800 and Type 1. Go to "GPS Panel" and click green button "Start GPS". Do not leave this tab, because you can see how your receiver is getting fix. Be patient, especially if you do not have a good view of sky. The reason why I use this to test GPS is that you can see satelite signal even if you do not have a fix. Not all GPS applications do that.
If GPS Tuner is able to get fix in some time, there is something wrong with your TT settings. If it is not, there is something wrong with your GPS receiver or registry settings.
In the gps panel tab, the following results were given after pressing start gps (after about 2-3mins):
Lateral and longitudinal positions, altitude were correct
PDOP: 3,7 (good)
Fix: 3d fix
Furthermore it found 16 sats from which 7 were active.
So i presume it's not the gps unit itself but the TT settings? Registry settings are ok i think.
Many thanks allready!
Use latest version of TT
Try to install the latest version (v7.9) of TomTom. This one works ok on the Jade and you can also use the latest maps.

Yes, but version 7.9 gives correct status for the sattelite reception and it also supports the latest v8.15 (and higher) maps. Version 7.450 does not support the v8 maps.
To be very honest. The file you linked me to (http://www.4shared.com/account/dir/8910078/74070269/sharing.html) gives me an ttsystem file after unpacking without an extension (no .cab, no .exe) and i actually don't have a clue how to use it

I also have TTN_7.910 9185 QVGA Black.cab and when i trie to install it on my HTC Touch 3G NL i'am getting a errormessage: Installation of TTN_7.910 9185 QVGA Black.cab failed.
This file is okay, i had it installed on my HP iPaq hx2110 with WM5.
Anyone any idea?
TTN7.910 works now, read below how i managed it:
It allready had TTN_7.450.9028 VGA.cab installed on my HTC Touch 3G NL, although the Touch 3G is a QVGA device it worked (some textlines are to big for the screen).
On this thread i found following link: (http://www.4shared.com/account/dir/8...9/sharing.html).
There you can find: TT7_v7.910.9185_vga_via_update_van_7450.9028.rar in the tomtom pda folder.
In this download you wil find TomTom_7.450.9028.cab and 2 versions of TT7_v7.910.9185, black and blue incl. data.chk
After installing TomTom_7.450.9028.cab (or in my case TTN_7.450.9028 VGA.cab) all you have to do is copy the preffered version, black or blue of TomTom Navigator.exe and Data.chk to your device: in the folder (phone or storage memory)\Programmabestanden\Navigator.
Since i have a Dutch device the folder is called Programmabestanden, i don't know how it's called in English.
On my device there is also a folder Program Files, where in my case TT is not installed.
But i think most of you can figure it out yourselfs by know how it works, otherwise your not worthy a PDA.
With TTN 7.450 my HTC could find satellites but it was unable to show me how many it found. GPS receiption was good although. With A-GPS turned OFF.
With TTN 7.910 the problem above is solved, my HTC stil finds satellites and now i can see how many of them there are out there in the sky.
Another nice thing is that now although i installed VGA TT7.450 and replaced it with VGA TT7.910 i can read all text on the screen.
The text is smaller so it fits the screen but still very good readable.
Sincelry,
a big fan of TomTom.
Final solution to this problem !
Disabling AGPS is the cause of the issue we have here.
I've done some testing with AGPS enabled and GPSMode set to 1 and the results are good (quick fix and almost no lag).
Please read my reply on another topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3143383&postcount=17

Wrong, 7.450 does support v8.15 maps, but only with keygen v7. don't ask me why, the answer is: because!
7.910 needs keygen v8 for v8.15 maps.
