Anyone have a cab or the correct registry settings for the AT&T rom quickgps.
Did the soft reset to prevent the installation of all the AT&T crap, and now my quickgps just gets connection failure.
I searched the forums but didn't find any definite answer to this. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
My data has expired, and now can't reconnect. It WAS connecting just fine. Maybe it's an issue with the servers?
I can't connect either...
FWIW, after several failed atempts throughout the day, it has finaly just now connected. so I think at least in my case, it was just a server issue. I have it set to update every time active sync conects, which hapens at least once a day. so it SHOULDN'T have ever gotten a week out of date. perhaps it was down for a while? it will be interesting to see if the rest of you can connect now.
Nope
Stil no connection. Even tried wifi and edge. If I keep hitting download a few times, it eventually starts counting progress.. but once it hits 100% still comes up connection failed.
Before I hard reset 4-5 days ago.. was working fine, no problems at all.
Thats why I thought it must just be a setting or something that messed up.
Yup ever since I did that hard reset to remove the AT&T crap. QuickGPS downloads to 100% but I get an error message saying: "Connection failed. Please try again later"
hmmm, ok, my problem was different. This morning it never even started counting down, then this afternoon it started working. However I did install a new program today, so it may have been after the soft reset that it started working... can't remember exactly which occured first.
if anyone could post working registry settings, that would be awesome, or even your reg key so that we can work it out.
So anyone have a key from a working QuickGPS
If someone could just export a working QuickGps key, I'll compare them to make sure that the settings are the same. I would be most appreciative.
Thanks!!
Doesn't really seem to be much in there of interest, but here you go...
Thanks
Thanks.. I also think there is a lot more stuff under
HKLM/Software/QuickGPS
Sorry, didn't notice there was another one. Mine is actually in HKLM/Software/HTC/QuickGPS. Here's that one...
I also have the same problem since yesterday, is that possible that HTC change the adress of the serveur?does anybody new something, very strange!
Dunno, that registry file above is totally different than what my registry setting is.
I googled quick gps cab, and found a different program, gps quick fix, installed it and it works fine. Quick GPS even shows the data to be valid etc.
I'm guessing that somehow we just have some bum reg keys, and they are preventing the updates.

Hey guys.
ive made a simple patch for the blue angel running windows mobile 5 where we got the error connection loss after loading any more than 200kb.
The patch I have made sorts this problem and one page for example that I now know that loads and didnt used to is Ebay, and buzzdev.
Simply insert this into the registry of the blueangel,, only for Windows Mobile 5.0.
U MUST let the registry flush before reseting the device. To do this press the power button to turn device off, wait 15 secs, turn back on and then soft reset.
Cheers.

I have updated this, still seemed to throw up the error with v1.0, v1.1 seems fine 100% of the time.
OK, I feel like a bloody moron and a total newbie here! I have tried importing the regfile with PHM Registry Editor, but I can't seem to do it. Could you please tell me what you use?
1.1b is now up.
cache has been increased.
ill make a cab later to make it easier. this works fine for me now even over some pages tht still didnt quite seem to load fully in 1.1
Great, thanks! Maybe I can install it as well then... I was actually wondering why eBay wouldn't load while I was looking for some stuff in bed last night, but this explains it. Does this help on the pitiful speed of loading the pages as well? I don't think eBay and IMDB were that slow to load on the WM2003SE I used before. Or were they?
speed doesnt seem to bad to be honest. id say its equally comparable to 2003se.
ill get tht cab made up now.
ok here it is,
the cab as promised.
Thanks! But I don't know if I have done anything wrong. I try eBay's front page, and after a while I see "The page cannot be displayed og downloaded because the connection was lost. Check the connection and try again later." This is with WiFi. I installed the cab, turned the unit off for around 30 seconds and then soft reset it. Isn't that the way to do it with this WM5 ROM?
Edit: Sorry, I didn't get the part about turning the unit on again before the soft reset. Trying it now. (This ain't my day!)
Edit 2: Nope. Didn't work that way either. :?
Hmm... weird... first time I installed WM5: I had nooooooooo problmes using PIE with WiFi and "big" sites. Now, on my 2nd try with WM5 I have those problems.
I'll try the patch later and write down what's going on.
Heres another patch which is slightly updated, v1.2. It has the following changes:
1. Makes pages load faster having more connections per server.
2. The timeout time has been increased so that the page will load for longer and wait for the page to fully load before displaying the connection lost error.
3. Cache of ssl pages has been disabled.

Mastiff: Please use the latest version and tell me how u get on...
I don't have that problem
I use the first patched version how about you?
Ye im using the first patched version...
Its weird why some users are having the problem and others are not...
Can u load ebay ok without applying my patch?
No. Sorry. I still get the message. Also I don't feel that this version is faster than the previuos. Weird! Do you use it on GPRS or on WiFi? I never surf on anything else than WiFi, maybe that's the thing?

That's the crazy thing: first time I installed WM5 on my PH20B1 BA, I had no problems with eBay and other much bigger sites... then I went back because of the performance to WM2003SE, had there the phone problem and several others, so I switched again to WM5 and NOW I have those problems with the PIE... First time I had the v1 WM5 and now the "v3" - that's the only difference. However, I'll try out that patch.

Just loaded ebay.com with the craddle connection and didn't have any problem.. I used WiFi with other sites and never saw that problem... Tomorrow i can try loading it at a wifi connection
OK, I just tested. eBay works with the cradle, but not with WiFi.
I tested it over wifi and works fine.
No patch applied (only the 1st patched rom version)
I still can't see the buttons.. I guess we need the Hima's IE Registry
I have those problems w/ PIE since i have the patch 3 version from WM5, with the very first version i had no problems concering PIE and Wifi...
I'm starting to think that the problem is WiFi itself, not just surfing via WiFi: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=29904
i new to this whole pocket pc thing, and i found this site and started upgrading my t-mobile mda. first i upgraded the rom to the k-jam upgrade and everything worked fine. then i started messing with the registry with registry wizard. that was fine also. but as soon as i hit the edge icon tweak, i can no longer connect to gprs. i get a msg saying
"Cannot connect. make sure your phone is turned on, or tap settings to check your connection settings. "
can anyone help me. i didnt alter the settings from when it was working so im unsure of what the problem is. any help is greatly appreciated
sounds like ou ahve been doing a fair amount of tweaking. Even in the registry. Are you sure it was the Edge icon tweak that did it as my Cingular 8125 is running 2.16.9.1WWE and I have made that change and mine works fine. My wonder is if one of the previous changes didn't take affect until a reload or a new program load, and that is what actually caused the problem. I loaded some cingular cabs yesterday and it broke activesync.

yah i know. but even after i restored my original registry settings i still cannot connect. when i try to connect, the window that shows gprs is trying to connect flashes 2x then it reads the msg i posted. any ideas
none here... I hope someone else can help, or you can hard reset and try to do the changes slowly soft reset a couple of times after each change until you figure out which one cased it. Each change including installed programs.
Sorry
mine does the same thing and I have been able to get it to connect without reset. Tap your signal bar on screen and turn on flight mode than turn off it will reset connections. It happens after every sync or charge for me and once we are able to unlock the cid and install the cing ext rom it might go away.
i actually just got rid of the program and it works now
In the last day I havn't been able to dload data. It says connection failed try again later. Sometimes it'll download to 100% but right after, I get the connection failed message. is the site down? Btw, I like in Hawaii. Dont know if that matters.

Its likely a registry error caused by installation of a new software. I encountered it after installing the Kaisertweak.
Solution: A) restore from backup from before the problem if you have. B) Else change back the registry setting for quickgps -solution used by some successfully.
Sorry, I dont have the info as A) did it for me. Do a search and you can probably find the quickgps registry setting correction.
I have been able to get TomTom 6.0.30 (8030) and Mio Map 3.2 with the latest maps working on it using a 2 GB microsd and its working fine. I used the pocket pc installer and it worked fine.
I think this may be an issue with KaiserTweak and the extra GPS setting. I ran a backup imediately before and after setting the GPS ability in kaiser tweak. I then did hard reboot, installed the backup from the before KaiserTweak and QuickGPS still worked. I hard reset again and installed the backup from after KaiserTweak and QuickGPS wouldn't work. As it stands now, i'll just leave the gps tweak disabled.
Forgive my inability to find a solution in search (at least I made the effort).

GPS worked flawlessly for the past months.......matter of fact, the entire device has been flawless until now.
Tonight when I pulled the phone from my case, I got a pop-up explaining that QuickGPS had expired (or some such silly blue screen). All I could do is close it (I've never launched QuickGPS since I've owned the device and have no idea how it could have activated).
Best I can tell, my receivers are now disabled.
Settings in TomTom still show:
other GPS receiver
baud 4800
comm4
Suggestions?
try opening quickgps ( u'll find under programs") and click download and download the data..then run tomtom again and see if u get a fix
Yeah download the data from QuickGPS. It takes an insane amount of time to require a fix with any program without a sattelite map in my experience.
You might have never noticed it because it downloads automatically when you connect to ActiveSync or other data networks if enabled.
I'm pretty sure that's your problem. A current sattelite map (I don't really know what it's called) lasts for 7 days.
Thanks for the tips.
What seems to have happened was that QuickGPS must have been activated last week at some point (no clue exactly just *how* that occured). The message I got last night was that it had "expired" (I see now that each download lasts for a week then expires).
Nothing I tried would get TomTom receiving again. After reading further threads, I noticed that we should NEVER TOUCH EXTERNAL GPS SETTINGS (which of course I had already done at that point). I figured I was facing a hard reset.
But my solution came as passively as the problem did. In THIS POST "ach2" suggests running GPSTest (included in the thread) after a hard reset.
I figured, wtf....why not give it a try before I hard reset? I let GPSTest run for about 30 minutes until it had acquired a HDOP score....minimized it....launched TomTom....and low-and-behold all is working normally again.
I've since disemboweled QuickGPS so as to never bother me or TomTom again.
Thanks for the suggestions and thanks ach2 wherever you are.
Actually QuickGPS is something you want to use. It downloads the Sat. info & saves your device major time in aquiring the sat tracks.
I use Quick GPS all the time, even if it hasn't expired.
as i've found many others have had the same problem, i get the horrid "connection failed. please try again later" message when trying to download the update. i've tried registry edits, i've tried cab files that supposedly fixed it, i've searched the forums for other fixes, and nothing seems to work. some info that may be usefull...
1.) att tilt flavor of the kaiser, although i did the trick to avoid loading the att software (soft reset before customization)
2.) kaisertweak loaded and agps enabled
3.) has worked previously, maybe once before, however i've done several hard resets to fix other issues and can't remember what was/wasn't loaded/done at the time it actually worked.
4.) i have not yet tried to let it sit there for the 30 or so minutes people say it takes without quickgps to connect to a satellite. i've tried connecting through tomtom 6 and google maps. my phone has never successfully connected to a gps satellite
if anybody could offer any suggestions/advice, it would be greatly appreciated
try to disable agps. It worked for me.
