for those who don’t like to switch between there language and tx9 and prefer to switch between there language and English (abc) you can disable the priority of the tx9 by installing this cab

thanks man!
what abouit igo 2008. r u using it ? mine still cannot detect satelites

I'm sorry to say we don’t have igo 8 yet
any way I cannot say I have tried it myself
but from what I have heard if you go to your device program file/igo 8 you will find a sys.txt
add these lines to what you already have there in the txt using your home pc then the program will work
pleas note that you need to have one line blank before adding
[gps]
port=6
baud=57600
set_messages=0
pleas edit the text and report
good luck

hmm I managed to start it jsut 2 times (igo2008) -> i mean the gps signal
from that time on, it stopped detectig sattelites
it's so stupid. I will try for a change with igo2006 and keep u updated.
are there any twaks that I can make to work better with my GPS/ sattelites as I don;'t have quick gps ?
can I get quick gps and install/configure from a another WM6 device ? (a friend has here a HTC touch cruise, everything works fine for him with quick gps+igo2008 )
and, can I make registry tweaking or smf, so that everytime I write sms, I automaticlly have : ABC instead of T9 ?
thanks!

AGPS

Hi. Where can i find the "Advanced Configuration" on the Xperia... a previous thread mentions this. I want to use the AGPS.
Regards,
Joel

Hi Joel,
as I wrote as reply to the other, related thread. They must have talked about a setting in Tom Tom to enable or disable A-GPS.
In general it is always enabled on the X1 - proven in my Mobile Navigator software, where I've a SAT-Fix in seconds.
How long does it take your applicaiton to get a SAT-Fix? If is is below a minute your A-GPS seems to be enabled.
Eric

Yeah i just read it. I do have tom tom nav 7 also however and cannot find the option, but like you said i think it is already enables as when i'm outside it picks it up in about 20 secs.
cheers for the reply.
regards,
Joel

No ... AGPS is not enabled by default. If you search on here for the Advanced Config tool there is a setting there to enable it.
However, it is disabled for a reason... It causes a lot of problems in TomTom. It doesn't make any improvements anyway, so I would avoid. Do a search for AGPS and you will see a post relating to this problem.

GPS clock is one hour ahead of current time

Hi all.
I have tried with different GPS softwares (PapagoX3&Vietmap), GPS clock are mysteriously one hour ahead of the current time (Device's time).
Could anyone suggest a solution to get a correct time in GPS?
I set clock as GMT+ 7 (Hanoi, Bangkok)
Help me, please. Thanks heaps !

Summertime?

Maybe, but I dont know how to turn it off ?

Hey,
(Thinking it could be daylight saving time).
- I searched on the internet and I found a few things you could try. You could update your device with through this link:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/microsoft/daylight-savings-update.mspx
- You can try to put daylight saving time off in Outlook through
Tools | Options | Preferences | Calendar Options | Time Zone
(I found this on an old threat on the internet so I am not sure it will work, the link:
http://forum.brighthand.com/showthread.php?t=146800)
But before I continue is it the GPS clock or the whole phone? Did you ever connect the phone with a USB cable to a computer?

Yup, its the GPS clock which is shown in several GPS map software I mentioned above. The clock of whole phone is still set correctly
I did try to disable my daylight saving time(DST) by "advance config tool" from xda - developer but its not the solution. >> do you think that GPS signal, its self, contains a time data including DST.
Infact, my local time (+ 7 GMT Bangkok, Hanoi) is not observed by DST but GPS clock still run as if the DST is applied, one hour ahead of local time

Hey,
I really do not have a clue what the problem would be. I thought that GPS just tracked location and not time. Anyway I searched on this forum with the searchkey "GPS TIME". Maybe the following topic is helpfull:

Ps. I often update my GPS with the preinstalled ("quickgps")

Disable the auto adjust gps-time.

In Settings from Navi-software. Maybe different in the Navisofts, for instance iGO in sys.txt or in Settings-menu, TomTom only in Settings-menu.

unfortunately, both of my Gps software (Vietmap17, papagox3) dont have setting funtion for this. Hence I have to edit some registry info, dont I ?

Sorry, don´t know both GPS-Apps. Maybe a reg-setting or a config-file.

Can't you try to call the service centre of the GPS software? Even if it is illegal you can try.

Yup, they are legal sofwares, I called service centre of Vietnam17 software. However they dont know much, too disappointed. Maybe, I will try to email Papagox3 service center about my matter.

Activate WiFi, update Manila weather, Disable Wifi [Looking for solution]

Hi,
I'd like to create a script or application to enable Wifi, update manila weaher (or do any other operation e.g. download mails, etc) and finally disable Wifi.
If a can product a mortscript or a command line app for this, I could use it with Wifilocations to define rules for home gsm cell, workplace gsm cell (where wifi available).
Are there any ideas or solutions for this?
Yes, I used search button, but didn't find anything.
Thanks!

I'm pretty sure mortscript can do this. You might want to read up on it.

Hi
Search at pocketpc[dot]ch for "zeitgesteuertes-wetterupdate".
There is a complete MortScript solution.
But I'm still searching for the command-file.

Any solution? c# code, mortscript, shortcut with params?

I can try to program a little app for you, but I need to know what version of manilla you have. (do you mean you want a tool to activate wifi, update the weather tab and then desactivate wifi, yes ?)

I'm using scheduler, where I can switch wifi on/off and execute apps. I'm windows-desktop developer and I would like to try write simple c# weather-update-app on my own.

anyone, please?

Hi,
use GPS Mod Driver (Link) and display off function in your program.

that would specifically work with rungps, but not because you use gpsmoddriver... only because rungps has that specific function.
I was looking fomr something like this as well, I'd like navicomputer, nonigpsplot, tomtom and whatever to access a working gps even if the display is off.
In other words, something like keeping the wifi on during standby... is that possible?

Try installing GPSLite first, before opening some of these applications

I get several hits for gpslite in a search... could you please point me to the correct one?
From what I understand, you're talking about having another application running that keeps the gps on by itself, and taking advantage of it to also run other gps apps?
That would be a workaround, but it would still require more cpu because there's another app running, and hence more battery drain

Hi,
ephestione, If you solved this issue in HTC HD2 "Leo", please, share it with us

Where is the attached thumbnails menus?? In mod driver, or in RunGPS??
Thanks!

I didn't because I didn't do anything yet
But if rungps has the capability to turn screen off while keeping gps on, yo could take advantage of it, e.g. install rungps and run it just for the sake of it, then run your favourite gps program as well, then switch back to rungps and let it turn off the screen, your fav gps program should also be running in background accessing the working gps
Ugly IMO as you need to leave open a program that drains more battery, I'd prefer having a clean way to leave GPS on when needed.
