Australia d810 how do i get TomTom working

Hi I have a dopod D810 i would like to know how you get the gps working on this model, can someone please help me
I did upgrade rom to 1.23.707.6 and install a TomTom program but it still looks for gps device
does the D810 have a device built in
has anyone done this Thanks
cheers

tomtom works on my aussie D810 with the same rom...
I set the GPS reciever to other NMEA GPS reciever.
coldstart it can take a minute or more to find the signal.
try standing outside in a area with a good wide view of the sky, or even driving round.

Depending on the version of/locked files (Search forum) TOMTOM, you might need to configure it each time.
In 6.02 and below you need to select the NEMA (or whatever its called).
In 6.03 they have a selection of inbuilt GPS device. I Found 6.03 much less hassle to be honest.

how do i get 6.03 please
how do i get 6.03 please

to get tomtom 6.03 update go to the following site and follow their instructions...
http://www.tomtom.com/support/solution.php?GID=3&PID=1401&SID=0&CID=215&Language=1&FID=6736
NOTE: you will need reactivation of your maps after this upgrade to 6.03

please if anyone can help

Are you outside with clear view to the sky? Wait 15 Minutes there! It WILL work.

You're on the right track with GPS on COM9 if you are not using version 6.03. If you get as far as "No valid GPS signal" message then that means your GPS receiver is tracking satellites ok and you're just not getting a GPS fix. I had the exact same problem as you.
1) Just restart your d810 (stylus into the small hole on the underside of your dopod )
2) Start your TomTom and use the same setup as you did before with NMEA.
3) Select GPS on COM9
4) When you get the "No valid GPS signal" message stand outside where there is lots of open sky (if you're in the city... tough luck it would be really hard to get a GPS fix there).
5) Be prepared to wait for up to 15 minutes until you get a GPS fix. Mine took more than 10 minutes.

Got it working plus more
Thanks guys you have been a great help
i updated my tomtom software it was easy
as advised i went to here
http://www.tomtom.com/plus/service.php?ID=17
installed home software
then went to this site and followed its instructions
http://www.tomtom.com/support/index.php?FID=6736&Lid=1
and installed tomtom home plus on my computer
tomtom home is excellent for anyone that does not have it, its free and a must have.
tomtom home then updated all my software and gave me free some cool new stuff.
after this did as you said went outside three minutes it was up
thanks i hope this helps others
now if i can only try to see if i can modify my 838 to do this aswell
i know the 838's don't have gps connected inside unit but has anyone opened one up and connected it.
I currently have 4 brand new dopod 810s and 4 dopod 838's i will have to sell some as we just got given them and some people oready had them before we got given them.

they were given to you? wow! give them away too. throw one my way

Changing GPS
Can you change the GPS type once you have already installed it and it is running?

Are any of you guys with optus? I really want to wait for the official GPS rom from dopod but i dunno what these guys are doing, there has been all these claims of new roms coming out but no substance.
Which rom updates are you using? Any problems with the aussie networks?

Viperx,
Im using this rom. its the offical rom, but it hasnt been released on the dopod asia site for autralian customers as yet. I think I downloaded it from this forum ftp, cant recall now. works great with 3 so far, haven found any bugs. The only thing I fixed since the update was the bass (again that was found on this forum).
RUU_Trinity_DOPODASIA_WWE_1.23.707.6_6275_1.35.00.11_108_Ship.exe

i'm with optus
and i'm using the
RUU_Trinity_DOPODASIA_WWE_1.23.707.6_6275_1.35.00. 11_108_Ship.exe
ROM and it has been working fine

Where did you find the fix for the bass?

I set GPs Program port COM9, hardware port COM 0.
I selected other NMEA GPS receiver and other bluetooth GPS receiver and selected GPS Device on COM9, but it says NO GPS device. What should I do. I'm really frustrated. any help will be appreciated.

TomTom on Vario III

Has anyone got TomTom 6 up and running with a Vario III?
I just got both of the above today, and from my research on here I understand I got to Change Preferences > Show GPS status > Configure > Other NMEA GPS receiver, then I set the GPS baud rate to 4800 (correct?) and COM port to COM4.
The result is always "No valid GPS signal!".
Any ideas what could be wrong?

Works fine here with the settings above, tried it with baud rate 57600
and that works too Is the orange / red light flickering at the top?
Also try it outside of course!

A CD came with My Kaiser installed TomTom 6 on it added Canada maps works like a charm, quick sat signal, no issues so far working great as I drive

Works for me here. But i always use the "internal GPS device" setting.

Ok. First your tomtom is detecting the internal GPS (So that's good)
(if it was not detectig the GPS receiver you would get a message saying "GPS device not found"
Second, I suggest using a simple application to show you the available satellites - if indeed it is receiving any. Give it plenty time and a clear view of the sky. This is a lot more important the very first time you are trying to receive satellite data. Once you have achieved it once it is a lot faster on the next occasions. I use GPS test as a very small application. It auto detects the ports, needs no difficult setup and all it does is show available satellites. If the app shows a few then tomtom will as well. See here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1582825&postcount=5
By the way, not all versions of tomtom have the option to choose "use internal GPS" as the above poster suggests. If it's there use it but otherwise other NMEA is fine.

TomTom 6 installation XDA Ignito

Hi guys,
I've searched the forum and can't find any previous posts on this issue, but would apologise if it has been addressed somewhere already.
I got an XDA Ignito last week and ever since have been trying to install Tomtom 6 (which I bought specifically for the new phone) However, I always get No GPS device found as an error. I've checked all of the setting over and over again and know the gps is working because google maps can utilise it.
Has anybody else tried installing TomTom 6 on an Ignito or touch diamond or got any advice on how I might get this working?
Thanks in advance

I had the same problem when I installed TomTom.
You may need to tell TomTom which Com Port to use.
1. Go to "change preferences"
2. Go to "show GPS status"
3. Then click "configure"
4. Choose "other NMEA GPS receiver"
5. Set baud rate to 4800
6. Then choose "com4"

Tom Tom 7 is out there, albeit not strictly legally. Works a treat on my Ignito, seems better than TT6.
Might be worth a try.

[HELP] Garmin software doesn't detect GPS receiver?

FIRST POST!
Hello xda-developers!
I have got a problem with the Garmin software for my Omnia 2
I've installed everything correctly, the software, maps, etc. (as far as I know)
But as soon as I want to connect to a GPS device it keeps scanning for a receiver.
I thought Omnia2 has a GPS receiver installed in their system?
If so, is there anyone that could help me out?
Greetings

Well, where can you find information for this?
I've seen
GPS-Programport: COM7
GPS-Hardwareport: COM9
Baudrate: 4800 (default)
But I haven't seen any option yet where I can choose which GPS (internal or external) device I want to use, when I click on the icon in the upper left corner of Garmin

Click the gps signal bars on top left side and then disable then select your port

HI
You need two app
GPS Gate and BeeLineGP to make it work
i had similar problem that you are encountering
after installing the two app and configuring it i finally fix it.
hope that helps

Have installed it. Now I can select what port etc. GPSgate says a GPS receiver has found on port 7 and ready for use..
So I open up Garmin, go to signal and it uses port 7 as GPSgate adviced.. Now waiting for a satalite signal.. But it takes ages! I'm standing outside, clear sky and everything.. I'm I still doing something wrong?

Hi VleNiK
Fellow these instruction!!!!!!!!!!!
I am assuming that you installed GPS Gate 2.6
In your phone go to Start and find GSP Gate
Click on the app and hit settings.
next in the input select setting
next step is to configure port
serial port is com7
Baud Rate is 57600
press OK once your done
Now back to Input menu
click Open
It will tell you that the GPS is OK but no position.
This is fine so leave the application.
Next is is Beeline GPS app
I am assuming that you installed the BEELINEGPS app version 1.90 or 2.0( 2.0 is a beta but it works really well) the trial version is 30 days for both version.
open the app than go out side get a clear view of the sky
wait for few minutes and it should be OK. the way to tell if it is working
is when the latitude and longitude has numbers.
close the app by passing the x button at the top once it is working
open Garmin and everything should be fine.
note: if you completely turn off the phone then you have to do the steps again. so i suggest you put the phone on stand by.
Hope that helps

since i made these changes,gps works fine for my tt7.
it's the same issue with the gps sensor, so maybe it will work for the garmin software too.
at first: you DO NOT have to install any other software except an regedit if it isn't already installed.
-open the regedit and got to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver\Drivers\Samsung GPS Hardware\InputBufferSize:
change value from 4096 to 512
-then go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver\Drivers\Samsung GPS Hardware\OutputBufferSize:
also change the value from 4096 to 512
-next step is:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver\Drivers\Samsung GPS Hardware\SleepOnNoData:
change value from 100 to 0
-last step
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver\Multiplexer\MaxBufferSize:
change value from 16384 to 1024
now save these settings and close the regedit.
got to yor gps settings and set:
programport: 4
hardwareport: 9
baud 4800
softreset your device.
that's it,i hope it'll help you...

thanks JOE ! It finaly works! BUT.. If I've got a signal and close Garmin, and put it back on lateron.. Do I have to search for a new signal again in an open sky? Because it realy takes a while..

I never had to use BEELINEGPS or GPS gate to get Garmin work on my Omnia i8000...
Just installed the software along with Voice support file and Base Map.. and then I copied India map.. Thats it.. Went to an open place and launched Garmin.. Waited for about 2mins and got a GPS signal...
Below are my GPS settings..
GPS-Programport: COM7
GPS-Hardwareport: COM9
Baudrate: 9600
Hope this helps...

Hi,
thanks for your reply! Well I tried it that way from the beginning.. But for some reason my Garmin Software only detected Garmin Bluetooth devices.. So not my internal one. And BeeLineGPS & GPSGate helped me with it. Now I have to boot those programs before using Garmin Mobile, shame but it works!

Gps
thanks JOE ! It finaly works! BUT.. If I've got a signal and close Garmin, and put it back on lateron.. Do I have to search for a new signal again in an open sky? Because it realy takes a while..
Yes you do have to re-open gps gate and Beeline GPS in a open sky place. I am trying to find a better solution to this problem. Using the GPS in Omnia ii is very tedious. I live in Canada and Garmin mobile xt just does not work once i open it. maybe in India but not in Canada i think. Aafi-rocks.
Also I tried lewellyen method everything works out great at the first time but when i open the garmin xt second time it freezes. It would not work at all. entail i had to go back to the old configuration.
My method is all i know so far but if any body have a better solution please share
Joe

There is another bunch of settings in nogarderGPS.exe accessible by typing *#1472365# on your dialer. On the menu select Settings | GPS
For Operation Mode select STANDALONE
For Start Mode select HOT START
For Session Type select NAVIGATION
See if this helps you. I use the GPS with google maps and it works just fine in Canada. I went to the Cook Islands, changed my SIM card and the GPS got a lock in 2 minutes - of course google maps didn't work because I didn't have any internet access.

try this
I) Go to General Settings - GPS
1) GPS program port : COM 7
2) GPS hardware port : COM 9
3) Baud Rate : 9600
4) Enable Manage GPS automatically
5) Make sure to download the XTRA data every week or so while connecting to internet trough Active Sync
II) Under Garmin XT - Click signal bar ( top left icon )
1) MAKE SURE its COM7 : COM7
2) IF NOT then click disable button
3) Click Use serial GPS - set it to COM 7
4) Then Enable it back.
