GPS - PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General

Hello, since i searched tread about GPS, its said there no topic for it..so, i want to ask few question those who are expert in Gps.. where i can get gps datacard.. for the xda lli.. can the xda lli alpine accept gps datacard ?? any advice or thing to talk about the gps data card.. ( like memory card one... )..
thanks
Regards
Xosix

youll need an sd gps but personally id go for a bluetooth gps as it will use less power from the alpine and with some gps receiver hitting 25+ hours battery time id go that route my self if you really want the sd gps then go for somthing like the globalsat one

hye, thanks for reply.. anyway.. im from malaysia.. so, i have no idea where to buy gps items.. im new to gps thing.. do you know which is the best online site that just selling gps with good price?? sd gps the price will go around ?? and the bluetooth around if u know ?? thanks

Which part of Malaysia? There are shops that will sell Bluetooth GPS in Lowyat Plaza, in KL.

im in kl near to lowyat.. .but i dont really trust thing from lowyat.. .

I prefer a bluetooth mouse too because you need some space on a sd card for the navigation maps!
A simple explaining (I hope so ):
the Germany map for Navigon Mobile Navigator 6 is about 300 MB big and the most space you got on a gps card is about 256 MB I think! As you can see, it would be better if you buy a GPS mouse with an additional sd card with 1 GB minimum (better would be 2 GB)!
At eBay you can buy some GPS utilities! Look for a mouse with a SirfIII (Sirfstar 3) chipset, it's the best chipset on market at the moment! I don't know what money you have in Malaysia (I think Malaysian Dollar, I'm right?) but i payed for a GPS mouse with a Nemerix2 chipset 50 Euros!
I hope you will done it right for you, keep it up!

thanks for the reply and informations you gave me... thanks everyone.. .and its malaysian ringgit... okay .. but guys if you have more informations about gps..please reply.. thanks

What do you want to do with GPS? It interesting me!

Who cares if AT&T Locks GPS to telenav!

Alright, check it out. I have seen allot of comments on here about how AT&T most likely lock the gps to their telenav service and many are upset. Well I shared your concerns until I found the update for the HTC Mogal, someone posted a few days ago. I have never tried tom tom and of course in a perfect world we could choose, however I must say I do not care anymore. The updated telenav is pretty sick IMO, as they changed the interface and added traffic support. What else is missing? I for one am content and just thought I would share so some can relax a bit.
*zero* chance of ATT locking the GPS to a particular service

Based on what? You speak as if this is the definitive answer. How do you know? I am all for it as I wouldnt be oppose to trying a different type of navi but there seems to be different opinions on this. Since you know everything, when is the tilt being released, also will it be in the morning or afternoon delivery truck?
wait 2 weeks and you will see

I, for one, am not going to pay for the Telenav service! I just want a GPS for those "detour" days and road trips. Stand-alone GPS devices out there do not need a paid subscription (except for traffic) so I would prefer 8925's GPS to be the same way. Even if AT&T locks the GPS to Telenav, I am pretty sure it will be a software lock and guess where do we hangout? xda-developers!!! After some time, we will have custom ROMs popping everywhere that will not only enable the "maybe-locked" GPS but also get rid of all the bloatware and make 8925 one snappy device.
it is nice to know that the tel nav is good. i have stepped inside 4 different AT&T stores to check on kaiser availability and each time I have also asked whether the GPS will be locked to tel nav and each time i was told you will be free to use whatever software you want.
1. Wont matter as XDA would un-do locking to TelNav.
2. While I might actually pay and use TeleNav...it would be a dealbreaker if for some dumb reason like XDA could not break it or if ATT removed GPS all together. Not saying either would happen, just that for me GPS is the only reason to upgrade at this point.

WHAT! GPS IS THE ONLY REASON TO UPGRADE? How can you say that when the screen tilts up? LOL. Just kiddin brotha, but seriously dont the specs on this bad boy get your attention as well? Although I consider myself the dumbest smart person I know, I still notice it has double the rom/ram whatever the hell it is and has 3 mp camera, and is the newest htc for at&t. Come on dude, navi is the only reason?

For me yes it must be GPS. The Hermes was great for me, I just like the GPS, and a NEW toy. But a new toy for $400-$800 better have full GPS even if I need to run an HTC ROM, it at least better have the hardware and be hackable. The 3MP camera is nothing for me. I dont take pics with a phone and when I do once a year, I dont expect much.
I look at my current desktop PC that is a model year 2003, yes its old but I run XP PRO and do everything I need at fairly quick speeds after the RAM upgrade. So why buy a new PC.....people say faster processor and more Video RAM, etc....but for what the PC does it works great. So why upgrade.

Now that it's confirmed that GPS IS NOT LOCKED TO TELENAV, I thought I'd go ahead and point out that I was right.

[What to install] Just got new Tilt 8925

Just upgraded my phone from Treo 750 to the New AT&T Tilt. It is a new company phone fresh out of the box with a 4gb memory card.
I turn to you for guidance on how to get the most out of this phone.
What are the must haves?
What Rom and Radio?
etc
Thanks in advance.
you need to hardspl your phone first, and then you can start flashing. there's a few different rom available, and everyone has their own preferences. my advise, read read read, and then read some more.
Well, i must say you came to the right place. But you're asking the wrong question my friend. All i can say to you is READ. You will learn there is soo much info on this site that it will take you at least a month to narrow down your own decisions on what you want/need. Everyone on here has a different preferance for what they want/need. I'm not going to flame you, because you don't deserve it . . . . YET Just do what we all do and have been doing ever since we came in contact with our 8125/8525/8925 . . . . READ. Start with the Wiki, and then start reading up around the forums as for what is avalible for you to @#$% around with. Have fun, and trust me , YOU WILL!!!
Welcome!
Read... and read some more. It's really a matter of taste. I'd start simple with things that won't break your phone, but once you find out how to flash that won't last long. If you don't want to flash I recommend pulling your battery before the device customization on first boot. If you've already passed the point you can hard-reset by pushing both soft keys and resetting with the stylus. Pull your battery when your device says "Device will customize in 3 seconds..." and all of the ATT bloatware will be gone!
Just a few things to remember.
HardSPL First!
GPS Always runs on COM4 Baud 4800
Make sure your radio works with the ROM you have chosen
Have fun!

I honestly considered that because I miss not being able to use the 8925 with one hand like the treo. I got spoiled being able to text with one hand.
Oh well I still have a few more weeks to decided.

Don't listen to them
Phone is awesome. Yeah it does have a big drawback in the 3D rendering department, but, hopefully, we will solve this in future somehow. Besides, there's no perfect phone.
I just wanted to recommend u to try out iGo MyWay Plus 2006 for GPS software. I think it's the best, and I've tried many.
Definitely install KaiserTweak.. and if you're into games, I'd recommend games by company called MoreGames, they have some awesome stuff.
Oh and get a CorePlayer QTV for video.

actually it is pretty easy to fix that. I use the resco keyboard with the iskin and it is almost like using my treo. have fun.

What about iGO 2007?
Must have freeware and apps (for me anyway) with no flashing
Google maps
Windows live
PCM keyboard
HTC Enlarge Start Menu
IE Slow scroll fix
Mini opera and Opera mobile
TCPMP (with plugins such as Flv and WMV plugin)
HTC Dialer
Duttythroy 1 calc
I personally prefer to keep the natural look of my MDA Vario III but do like some of the apps originally found on the cooked ROM's

Sorry to thread jack, but I thought it's supposed to be COM4 Baud 9600.
What is the "Kaiser Tweak"?
I'll be in your position soon. Getting Tilt within next two weeks. I've already been reading trying to catch up and focus on wants/needs. I love the I phone look alikes, but so many to choose from...need the best close to Iphone theme. lol!
I use TouchPal for my one handed keyboard. Love it, but it took some getting used to.
I still often pop out the keyboard since I moved my instant messaging entirely to my phone and sometimes will have long conversations. I also flip open the keyboard when taking notes and whatnot.

iGO
Kaiser Tweaks
Total Commander
I need something to customize the Today screen. How do I get the big clock on there?

GPS in Dubai - Mr. mkhattab

I'm getting the Touch Diamond later in the day. I heard from a friend that there is no maps on the phone. Can Mr. mkhattab please advice me how he got the maps & the required softwares, as he is also from Dubai. This is the first item I'm buying with GPS. I have no idea how to get the subscription for it
My friend you dont need any subscription
just download navigon or garmin softwares as iGo doesnt work on Touch diamond.
You can download the software with the maps through www.ce4arab.com:)
is the diamond available in Dubai?

Well... here you go then
1. Go to https://buy.garmin.com/shop/store/downloadsUpdates.jsp?product=010-11034-00&cID=138&pID=11413 and download the latest version of the unit software for Windows Mobile (currently 4.20.50w )
2. Download the free basemap and the support files from the same page
3. Install them in that order- make sure your phone is connected well before installing so the install wizard can detect the Internal Storage partition
4. I'm trying to find the map download link on Garmin.com- I could've sworn I had it bookmarked with these- the one you need is City Navigator Middle East v4
5. Not really sure how well (if at all) this application functions on a trial basis (I purchased) so maybe you can try it and let us know

Big problem with stereo bluetooth headset

Hello, i've a big problem with my new stereo bluetooth headset:
I bought this : cgi.ebay.fr/Casque-Stereo-Bluetooth-MP3-Appels-tel-BLEU-NOIR_W0QQitemZ280484580339QQcmdZViewItemQQptZFR_LC_TV_Son_Home_Cinema_Aisle_Product_Domain?hash=item414e2f0bf3
(sorry i'm new and i can't post outside link because all new user accounts will be verified by moderators before this restriction is removed.)
My problem is when i want appairing, everythink ok, hd2 find my headset, with a headset icon, but when finaly it goes to apparaing, the phone give me a code with six numbers (125262 for example), and i ask me it's the same on the headset, but in my notice, they say that the code is 0000.
If i say yes, it's the same, the phone tell me that it can apparaing.
If i say no, i go out the bluetooth menu.
I don't understand why, if somebody would help me, it's great
I've tested the headset with another phone (LG), and everythink is ok (it ask me a code (0000))
I'm under stock orange rom 1.43
Sorry for my English, i'm French, thanks
Nobody have an idea ?
On google, i have search, but none problem would be same with mine.
If this message was posted in the bad section, please to a moderator to move it ...
Try to manually enter passcode to pair. Make sure your S9 is in pairing mode.
I have no problem to pair Sony DR-BT22A and Samsung SBH650, but I have to enter passcode manually.
Thanks for your answer.
I don't understand how enter manualy the code, because this code is given by my phone and it's not the same all time.
This code seems like to pairing two phone, because he have six numbers and not four.
If someone have an idea, please help me because the headset is ok with others phone, but not with my HD2 ...

That's really odd... I have the exact same headset (lovin' it!) and an HD2 and when I try to pair the headset and my phone, the phone asks me for a code!
Thanks for your reply, then now, i'm not alone.
I would understand why the HD2 give us a code.

I think you missunderstood: We don't have the same issue, because it works fine for me! When I want to pair the two devices, it asks for a code on my HD! I can then enter 0000 and it pairs!
I understand, we don't have the same matter ....
But why it ask me a code, then normaly, i must give the code (0000).
That's ok with other phone, i've tested and everything is ok, but not on my HD2.
Then, it is a rom problem, or a headset problem ?
I'm really losing me.

I have absolutely no idea! That is really strange...
What ROM are you currently using?
BTW: I was born in Marseille!
I use stock orange french rom 1.43
I show you the matter :
I don't understand why it give me this code, it is never the same everytime i try.
Thanks to try to help me, and it's good, you're born in France
Ok the screen capture is in French, but someone have an idea ?
I've look into all bluetooth settings, no where it talk me a security code ...
Hmm... strange...
I just took another look at the ebay-auction (I only glanced at the picture the first time) and now I'm not sure we have the same headset anymore!
I have a Motorokr S-9 (http://direct.motorola.com/ens/s9/Headset_Home.asp) which looks pretty much EXACTLY like the picture in the ebay-auction - but the auction text doesn't mention Motorokr or even S-9 at all! As a matter of fact - it doesn't mention any brand at all! (Or did I just miss that part? My French is very rusty...
I took another look at the ebay-auction because I noticed it said Z-W88 at the top of the screenshot you posted, whereas it says "Motorola S9" on mine!
So the question is: What headset do you actually have!?
EDIT: And you're very welcome!
When i buy it on ebay i know it's not a motorola, see the price.
For me it is a reproduction, then perhaps not good quality, but it run with others phone but not with my HD2 ...
I need this sort of headset, and i will buy a motorola, but now, i'm afraid if the headset will be apparaing with my phone

Ok - so we don't have the same headset.
I'm afraid I don't understand this sentence: "i'm afraid if the headset will be apparaing with my phone"
The problem is: The HD2 does not have the same bluetooth stack as 95 % of the other phones! While almost all of the other phones with Windows Mobile use the Microsoft Bluetooth Stack, the HD2 uses the Widcomm Bluetooth Stack. This could be the explanation why your headset works with other phones but not with the HD2...
EDIT: By the way: Take a look at this. A lot of sellers are selling the original S-9 on ebay Germany for only a few Euros more than you payed! Is there any way you could return the one you bought and by a real S-9?
I thought in fact, if you've got the blue label bluetooth, it was compatible.
I don't know that exist different sort of bluetooth.
When i say "i'm afraid", i would say if i buy a more expensive headset (motorola S9 for example), it would be run with my phone ?
Edit : thanks for links, on french ebay we don't have this price ...
I'm very interest for the first motorola on your link.

Yeah, you would expect bluetooth to be bluetooth - but it isn't!
I have a S-9 and it works great with my HD2 - IF you keep two things in mind:
You have to use a registry tweak to optimize the sound. Otherwise it will sound like crap. Of course I can give you the tweak if you buy a S-9.
To keep the sound quality good, you have to carry your HD2 at a location on your upper body where nothing interfers with the connection. I keep it in my breast pocket. The reason for this is, that the Widcomm Stack automatically switches to a lower quality whenever something interfers with the communication between the two devices. When calling someone, this actually makes sense: Instead of loosing the call, the call quality just gets a little bit worse. But with music, this sucks. Whenever I carry my HD2 in my pant pockets, I have to pause and resume playback once in a while because the quality was switched down by the Widcomm Stack... Quite annoying, actually.
Why are you interested in the first one? That one is actually used! You could get this one. I'm sure they'll send it to France. They're shipping from Hong Kong, so Germany or France doesn't make a difference. Just contact them on ebay!
Thanks for your help, you're great.
I'll try to buy one on your links.
Then i don't understand why it ask me a code, surrely compatibility reason.

Yeah... I guess because it is a copy of the real thing, they have used some cheaper bluetooth implementation that isn't compatible with the Widcomm Stack...
Good luck then!
And if the sellers all refuse to ship to France I'm sure there is something we could do (e.g. I order it and send it to you... But that would mean you'd have to pay for the extra shipping from here to Marseille...)
After different search on Google, now i understand widcomm stack and microsoft stack are different.
I can see too, on different forum, that it do a lot of compatibility problems with the HD2.
I think you're right : "I guess because it is a copy of the real thing, they have used some cheaper bluetooth implementation that isn't compatible with the Widcomm Stack".
Then i will buy a quality headset (S9) and not a reproduction ...
Thanks @ MAMeingast, to take time to help me.

hi
i have replied to ur PM on this the HTC explorer is good if she only wants to use the phone for just calls and all i have dont any rooting or flashing on this phone as it is being used by my wife and she wont allow me to do anything on it
u can look at the new Mi425 or the new HTC Desire C
@haree thanks for the tip.
anybody else got a say?
Don't go with cheap company for your sis., go with reputed like HTC as haree has suggested. HTC, Samsung and Sony has some phones in that range... I'd suggest you to go through this thread over here

ok, got the wrong impression about explorer that he suggested you, my suggestion would be HTC Explorer, BB Storm or if you can wait then Sony is going to release some new phones

hi
i dont know about the trustability i just saw it gave u the info
u can chek this phone too
Samsung galaxy Y
. It is good features like 2 mega pixel camera, 830 MHz ARMv6 processor, Android OS and v2.3.5 (Gingerbread), 3.0 inches and TFT capacitive touchscreen, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, 7.2 Mbps data transfer speed, good battery life ect.
has more phone space than the explorer
the exp has only around 180MB this one has 300MB and is a little sleeker and girls would tend to like sleeker phones

I'm with you on this bro. I have a feeling that they would cost 15k atleast......
also galaxy y has got a display of a 1k color phone so, not gonna go with that.
anybody experienced the bb storm firsthand? any comments?

don't go with BB.... its nothing but waste of money Instead if u r looking for non android phone then any Nokia mobile in that range will serve the job better than BB ... BB charge for everything after u purchase mobile means if you want net then activate BB service which are above RS. 400 for most of operators ... if you want youtube access then need higher pack of BB services and so on .. BB is best suited to corporate world where everything is paid by company not for personnel one ....
Nokia C6 01 would be great phone if going for non android stuff
Phone for Sister
I had given my Spice phone for a few days to my wife and switched back to my wife's blackberry ...
She was not happy with spice phone at all .. she was not happy with camera and pictures , she termed the phone very slow and found navigation and others very difficult so i would say its personal choice to go with android but i would advice go with Samsung or Sony Xperia for woman the looks of the phone are also very critical factor
I brought huawei ideos x5 pro for my wife @13750/- a month back
I have rooted it but keeping stock rom and she says battery life is excellent
