how do i get any compass app to work on my hd2 wp7 yuki-xbmod rom besides htc compass . i have try to install compass 7 app but it says my hd2 does not have compass api support. thanks on anvance for any help
Not possible yet and I also wonder why...
Don't know if they use on other WP7 devices an other component than the GSensor...
Because on the HD2 the GSensor is used for the compass...

Hi
I was wondering if there was a G-Sensor SDK out for the hd2? All I can find is the Diamond G-Sensor SDK...

As for reverse engineering the drivers...i have no idea
There is no need for a Special SDK on the HD2 I just used a standard HTC SDK for it and it works fine ^^ I do not know if the Diamond SDK is the one I have

for the g-sensor yea, the one chainfire is working on(i think hehe) has the gsensor as well as the other sensors that the current sdk doesnt have like proximity sensor i believe.
I have a question to all HD2 TMOUS owners. Does this device have digital compass? Does it work properly with the Google Maps application?
The reason why I am asking is because it wasn't mentioned in the specs of this phone on the official HTC website. However it was mentioned in the specs of the Europe version of this device.

It don't remember if it is in the stock ROM (the app that is), but it is in the one custom ROM that I use (NRG ROMs). So, the ability is there even if the app isn't.
It works well.
works well

glad to hear that!
thank you

Thank you.

5MB is a huge cab! Amiright? What exactly does the compass do with google maps that google maps can't do without it?

I thinking (hoping) that what it does is provide accurate orientation information when there's little or no movement for gmaps to interpolate heading.
EDIT: also, the cab he has attached above is for the full compass app, not the tweak to make it work with gmaps

I have purchased the htc hd2 tmobile us in april. I have tried to run the digital compass but I have never had a success in using the app. I always get stock at the magnetic interference screen. I've tried every figure eight style you can imagine but it never works.
I recently noticed that is a big problem for me because I'm starting to use the gps feature on the phone.
Could someone help me on how to fix it ?
Thanks in advanced.
(i've already searched google and tried figure 8 vertically and it still doesn't work)
sigh
I cooked my rom using the latest Da G WM6.5.5 SYS
All works fine, except the htc camera.
Wen I open my camera, all is fine, but if I take a picture or if I take a landscape picture, wen the camera rotates the screen is all black, sometimes all I can see is a little square in the middle of the screen.
Does anybody knows of a fix?
btw: im using the latest S2 drivers and packages
See screen shots attached.
Thanks and regards
MOD Edit: Solved issue
i have the same issue with the HTC mega camera but i nevertake it so much importance due to the dependacies in htc mega pkgs... this is interesting
what sensor sdk are you using....the one from S2 that matches camera?
Thanks for the reply.
Yes iam using the sensor sdk from the s2 rom that matches the camera, in fact im using all the ext packages from the s2 rom.
In WM6,5 (com3 I think) it works fine, just in wm6.5.5 that this happens.

i guess its possible that it could be the sensor sdk you are using not being compatible with wm 6.5.5, you should at least try the one from rhodium 2.07 and see if it works...i dont have this problem with rhodium S2. also you could try another camera from topaz that you know has worked for you in the past..maybe an older one and see if it will work with your current configuration to help narrow down the problem.
Hi,
Maybe you can try Topaz camera instead of Rhodium.
If I'm not mistaking the camera is depended on streamingsdk, mhub and dshow as well.
I finally got the camera to work proper
I had some auto gyrator reg edits messing with it
Thanks for the help guys

Hiii there, i have same problem with my HD, could you teach me step by step how to fix this problem? Big thanks to you all, master..
Does the new 4.1 of googlemap support the compass? I just found out that googlemaps supports the HD2 digital compass(I have the usa t-mobile HD2) but I updated to 4.1 (version with voice lookup) already and I tried rotating the HD2, but the arrow still points in one direction no matter which way I turn the HD2. I tried disabling GPS in googlemaps and still didn't work. I tried manually setting gps to com4,57600, and still it won't give true facing.
*bump* nobody yet?

I downloaded it with Opera.
I can't get compass input yet.
It gives an error when I try to show the position of GPS photos.
It does install its cache to SD if it's installed there.
you can download the GPSMod Driver, it lets you use the compass with any application

Igo didn't released the wvga version for android, the builds that you find on the internet are extracted from Samsung Spica - hvga.

You need the files to place on the sd card ( you unrar the Motonav folder then copy to the root of the sd card, paste the map on the content/map folder, and you are set ).
You can probably find the files on the same place you found the .apk.. If not, google it ( I cant tell the link to it cuz xda isnt a fan of warez ).
[]`s
I installed the APK, started the app and it wrote "Installing Motonav" for a while and then quits.
Anyone got this working?
I'm using Igo Motonav on my HD2 Shubcraft. On the first boot it said installing then froze up. Each subsequent time it has worked fine.
I chose Motonav over IGO Myway because Motonav supports the full 480x800 resolution of this device.
Motonav uses the same .fbl maps as other IGO navigation software. I installed the .apk and filled in the content folder with maps from the Windows mobile version of Igo. The maps from IGO myway will also work with Motonav.
This is a very good solution for me because I can use navigation without mobile data charges. The maps are all individual files for each state. I like this because I can just add the states that I need so it takes up far less space on my sd card.

Is TTS just the voices that give you directions? If so, then yes it works.
