Does anyone have information on why my gps does not work on the phone. I have tried many roms.
Only the android 2.2.2 gps works. The others do not find a fix. (tested MIUI, ICS and Official 2.3)
I have changed many times gps.conf file. but I do not think the fault lies.
GPS uses additional files? knows, maybe they are available?
Can somebody put files in link.
Thanks!

hi
I have a SPV M700 on orange(uk). My gps worked fine without any problems, however today after unlocking the CID so that i could try some roms the gps no longer works. in Tomtom i get messages gps device not found.
I've tried searching in the forums here but cannot find an answer.
Has anyone else had similar problem or know of a solution ?
Thanks
Have you flashed a different radio rom?
What version of the radio do you have now?
Some older radio roms don't support he GPS receiver.
Hi,
I had the same problem. I was given the link below and updated my ROM, this solved the GPS but TomTom kept sticking. I did a bit of digging on this site and found another ROM, which is essentially the original Orange ROM. I have installed this ROM now and am having no problems.

Recommended ROM. (Orange)

Further to my reply....
Your phone memory will be wiped when you install the new ROM. So back up any data/files/settings that you want to keep. Your Memory card won't be affected so save everything to that.

Thanks for the quick replies but im a bit confused here .....the rapidshare link is that for the ROM that makes TomTom stick ?
And from the Recommended ROM's, which one is actually the original Oranger 1's ?
Thanks
I hope this helps.
Managed to get it working.
Used the Mozzer Rom for the link given and then swiftly upgraded to the Big Black WM6 rom.
All working fine as far as i can see.
Need to get out the office to test gps properly, but at least it's picking up the gps device.
Thanks again for the help
I had the same problem, I tried several ROMs without any fix, GPS looks desabled.
Then i had one idea, flash the original ROM from HTC, the one that enables the GPS and Voilá it works, then i loaded the ROM i like and keep working.
Hope it helps,
Information please
You downloaded the original HTC ROM with GPS working, but can you tell us the exact site with this ROM... I look but I did`n get it...it would be very helpfully for us.... Thanks a lot.
The link is given in one of the posts above

Mozzer** English Orange UK**
hope it helps
anyone else experiencing this? before the update my phone and GPS were great since the update the GPS (using navigation) hardly ever locks and then when it does it then loses lock and doesn't regain it again
help???
What is your softare version number, 1.72 or 1.84? I had the same issue with 1.72, and that along with other bugs got me to go for a custom rom.
After flashing Android revolution 4.0 along with a new radio I get a fix at my GPS almost immediately.
I think you will find some apps on marked named GPS fix, you could try and see if it would be of any help, don't think it's a offical fix for it yet.

Flashing a new radio may help
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA App
After I flashed eViL's myTGB v1.0 - A Pure Gingerbread Espresso ROM, I've had problems with my navigation not picking up GPS. It just says is "Searching for GPS..."and I was wondering if anyone else had this problem or if there was a fix for it.
I haven't used that Rom but every I have had GPS issues after switching Rom's I followed these instructions laid out real clear and easy at http://teamroyal.net/gps.html
Good luck
Thank You, I have tried a few ROMs too, and this is the first time I've had any GPS problems...I have tried the first two alternatives from the website you posted and I am ganna try the other one..and If that doesnt work I'm ganna try another ROM..
No Problem I tried the third one but my phone was not able to lock on to GPS at all, so I had to use my backup gps.conf file I made before the edit. Let me know if it works. Not having working GPS is a killer.
I tried the alternate and I had no luck...and I tried the ROM i had before and I get the Navigation to work...so I decided to just try out another ROM..and my GPS and Navigation works..But now I have the damn tiny/blurry MMS...and I cant find a fix for it...but Ill keep looking...Thank you for your help...
Hi all. Ofcourse you all know mine file server on xt720.ru
Now, i'am asking you - what links i should mirror to it?
So if multiupload and other service that we use are down - we don't lost our info?
I have many storage place.. so it won't be a problem...
So, please, post some links =)
xvilka recently uploaded many of the XT720 sbf's to the droid-developers mirror (at least the ones I had):
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umts_sholestablet/list.php
I also sent him 3 motoroi ones, but I just noticed they don't seem to have made it...
Hi!
Thanks for kind offer... well,...IMHO, I would like to suggest backup of the basebands, and also the modified ROMs that were tested as the more stable, since we may have the original for recue purposses and the better modded versions for flashing the betters.
bets regards!
Hello,
I've used photonic CM 7.2 in SDcard, and since the first usage, i can't use gps in Android neither in WM6.5.
I've reinstalled WM6.5 ROM, but still no GPS signal.
Can anyone help me, please?
Best regards.

Try SDcard build r175 here
Remember you should run this build first time without SIM card.
r175 can enable GPS so it will run in WM and CM builds.
The r175 ROM, freezes and i can't use, but GPS it's alive on WM6.5.
Thank you very mutch.
It was any rom that i can use in HDMini, with no problem on GPS? I've tested Cotulla_PHOTON_AD_Users and cm-7.2.0-RC0-photonic with problems.
Best regards.
Thanks it helped !!!

After you 'revive' you GPS with r175 you can use schlund's NAND CM7.2 build with GPS working normally.
Just be sure you nave GPS on in WM when you start flashing CM7.2
hello,
I had to same problem before. To correct you must boot again under Android to swith the GPS on/off. After next reboot after in WM65, GPS will work again.

thanks for the solutions.

Hi all,
I am having big trouble ith my GPS.
On WM 6.5 I do not having GPS. It's enabled at the SD Android version r175-final.
I am using Tom Tom on my WM 6.5. It's just connecting to the GPS module I think but it's waiting for signal endlessly.
Anybody an idea?
I just made a hardreset. I just reinstalled Android to check if it GPS is enabled there....do idea left.
Thx ahead guys
Try to turn GPS OFF in R175 then start win and open Google Maps with "enable GPS" checked.
Enable HTC location and stuff in winmo and download satellites.
You have to be under clear sky when testing
Repeat with turning GPS ON in android. It should work.
HTH,
Hi ci6i,
thx for your help.
I tried your steps, but I din't receive any satellites in google maps.
Do you have a further idea? Or anybody else?
Thx ahead.
To get gps working in winmo, you need to enable gps in android or gps will not work in winmo!!!
Hope you read my first thread...I just tried this without any success.
Maybe you have to put GPS several times On/Off in r175 to get it work in WM. At least it has to be On in Android (test with GPS Status from Google Play).
well guys it's not working in android, too.
I just de-/activated several times, no success. I am a bit hpeless in the moment.
Did you have another Android release installed, a nand release for example?

Its 100 times confirmed... install winmo, than run android sd card version, not nand version! Than enable gps in sd version android, than reboot to winmo and your gps will work 100% (but you need to enable wifi and download satelites before use gps with an aplication). If "download satelite" working in winmo your gps for sure will work.
I not confirm with using r175, I used mine froyo version and every time it fixed my gps...
Well guys,
thx to all of you for your help
I just send my mini to reparing. The HTC guys found out that my GPS tool is damaged.
