about "The solution to the GPS problem" - HTC Wings

i did it step by step,but at 5th step. i run MTTY, then opened with "open port setting" , i click "OK" , it opened with new blank window in MTTY, i press the "enter" on keyboard, shows nothing on it, and keyboard is no use on this condition, i can't find what i did wrong here, could anybody help me out here?

is there a "SOLUTION" anyways? is there an internal antenna? does GPS work with any htc wings now?
i dont want to read so many pages on the follow up
thanks

The GPS doesn't work, yet. We are still waiting for someone to take pictures from inside a pre-production model. But JockyW and others are doing a wonderful job.

then why all this HARD SSPL and working and fixing when it doesnt work anyways? what are u guys doing there?!

Lots of things, they have found things and settings that must be set and with more testers that work got done faster. Now they are waiting to see the inside of a preprod model to see whats in it that the production ones do not have. Hard spl and all that is needed to get in and mess with the stuff they are.

okay thanks.

Yeah, its slow work. I follow the threads but am too busy to join in the hunt for a solution

So, I don't have this problem but I know how to fix it because I've read all the pinned topics. Just for kicks I ran a search of "QuickGPS failed" and what do you know, I found the answer. Just a tip.

Looks like you need another tip, start with the thread that says "quickgps on the kaiser *FIX*"
While you're at it, watch this video

A few questions about my new Wing

Hi everyone... I am trying to find out a few things about my new phone. I am brand new to Windows Mobile, coming from a blackberry, and have done much searching on here, but haven't found exactly what I'm looking for.
I have found tons of posts on how to disable threaded texts. Not sure why anyone would want to do this, (I'm still used to my blackberry, and I love the threaded texts)... so I am wondering how I get that, because mine must be already disabled. Mine only shows the messages that were sent to me. I did get a program from a guy I work with called Xtreme text, which is ok, but kind of slow.
Also, I would like to know if I can disable or at least change the sound that my phone makes when I send a sms. I went into sounds and turned off notifications, and that turned it off, but it also turned off the sound for when I receive a text.
I saw that there are different operating systems I guess they are, and some of them maybe would give me the things I'm looking for, but a lot of them say that the transcriber has been disabled, and that is the whole reason I had to lose the Blackberry, because we are using a new program at work and I need to be able to have my phone signed with the stylus.
I would appreciate any help I can get. Thanks!
Welcome to xda-devs! consider this your "get questions anwered without just being to sold to search" pass.
Threaded texts are not natively supported in WM6. You must flash a WM6.1 rom for natively supported threaded texts. Flashing roms is really fun and kind of addicting (at least imho). There are currently 2 methods for flashing roms- USPL and Hard-SPL. Your phone is protected from rom changing with a "CID-Lock" that is built into the SPL of your phone. The USPL uses a temporary SPL to disable the lock where as Hard-SPL flashes a totally new SPL that has no CID-lock.
Romwise, we do not yet have an abundance of cooks. We have two main cooks, itje and ttran. They make the "Touch-it" and "Open Touch" roms, respectively.
Now about the transcriber. The transcriber takes the text that you write and translates it into text. I am not sure what program you could use to actually sign documents.
Welcome to xda-devs!
Thanks fzzy! Ok, so in your opinion, what would be the easier way for a newb to do this, and what would be the flash that I wanted to use? I am totally new to all of this and will need step by step instructions on how to do all of it without turning my phone into a paperweight.
Any suggestions and help will be awesome! The main things I want are the threaded texting, and to be able to scroll through my contacts with my finger like the iphone I guess. Also, I would really like for the phone not to make that bell noise when I send an sms. The thing with the transcriber i believe is built into the program that we will be using, but the ability for the phone to accept the movement of the stylus needs to be active still.
Thank You!

Very important.....
And if you hard-spl... you can test any rom you want....
Yeppers. As fzzyrn said, you don't need the transcriber since all that does is translate what you write into words. If you do want it, though, you can built a ROM using my kitchen that includes it.

Boo hoo, no body loves me. I'm gonna built one ROM with every configuration possible with my kitchen and release it so that people will start talking about my Clean series ROMs. hehehe
Hmm I still don't really understand what any of that means. Maybe I will just have to learn to like this phone the way it is.
It does say though, under "programs you need" that you need active sync if you have XP. What if you are using Vista?
I am going to keep reading posts to find out as much as I can, but this is all pretty confusing to me so far...

My suggestion:
1. USE your device about a few weeks. You never tune a car before you tested it.
2. Meanwhile READ, READ, READ and you will understand WinMobile etc.... and Activesync and WMDC on Vista
3. NOW start searching apps you want to try....
4. And now think about falshing a tuned up Operating system....
But please take time for 1-3!!!!!!!

Together, we can be "The Forgotten."
Would it maybe be easier for me to just try the palm threaded sms program, since that's really the biggest thing I want? Also, does anyone know how to turn off that stupid annoying sound that comes up and says message sent? That thing is really annoying me!
Thanks!

you got to reg edit it(use a reg editor like PHM Reg edit0
then go to HKLM(hey_local_machine)\software\microsoft\inbox\settings
SMSNoSentMsg = 1
you might have to create the value...

Ok, sorry but I'm really new to this... is this reg editor something I run on the phone, or on the computer while the phone is connected to it?
Thanks
youhave to install PHM reg edit to your phone or use this on your desktop computer(attached):
ok, so I started the regeditor and connected my phone, and went into HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Inbox but then there is no settings folder, only "Ldapinfo", "sendDriver", and "Svc". Any suggestions on where to go from there?
Thank you!
here i created a cab file for you.
just copy it to your wing then click it and it will fix this sent message thing
hmm I copied it and clicked it, and it opened a bunch of text in IE, but it didn't stop the message sent notification. Not sure if I did something wrong or what...
lordy lordy. how'd i forget ivan? haha.
we should also add albert now what with his carbon rom, eh?
oh by the way, you need to click it from your device, not form your computer. trix is for kids (get it?). oh and you should get some "cab via activesync" software so you don't hafe to repeatedly copy and open.
so it didnt install at all?
i tried it on my wing and showed this:

TomTom Navigator forgetful?

Ive got the L26 v4 rom and used to have the stock at&t rom, both give me the same tomtom navigator problem. MY home is always default when i restart the program, none of my favorites are saved, if i add any personal info its gone the next time i start the program. Gps works great haha. Id just love to save the gps location of me in the porta john at work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
TomTom always defaults to your home location, it's intended to, that's just how it works. If you want to change it; feel free, but it'll start wherever you change it to next time too.
And I just checked, I have my typical favorites, no problems that I know of. TomTom behaves almost exactly the way it did on my Treo 680.

No it goes to the default hom elocation of the white house not my house it never saves my home location or favorites. i think i made that clear it forgets everything i put in i cant have favortes or a home address because it acts like the first time i ever started tomtom ITS NOT ROM RELATED
can anyone tell me where tomtom keeps all its userdata maybe its saving in the wrng pace or something cuz it never saves anything
hello. Sounds like you have your poi.dat and a few other files set to read-only. Check the properties of the TomTom folders and ensure that they are not read-only.
Thanks
The GPS settings are stored in "navigator.cfg", while all other settings are stored in "MapSettings.cfg", which is in the map folder. Make sure that none of these two files is read only. Actually, make sure that all TomTom related files are not read only.

awesome thanks guys that did the trick. now i can save my gps coordinates for slacking off at work haha. Way better answers than IT ALWAYS DOES THAT haha
Just to add, although probably irrelevant now you've sorted it, but for anyone else reading this thread, if you want to remove your home location completely for security or for any other purpose, just delete the file MapSettings.cfg from the map folder on your SD card. It will recreate itself once you run the program again and add or change settings, without a home location, or you can specify a new one. From my experience, it makes itself not Read Only by default.

Maybe next time if you actually ask the question the way you later explained it, my answer would have been different. No reason to get pissy over it. Point out to me where my answer was incorrect. No? Didn't think so.

No i thought the best place on a jobsite is the porta john therefore gps cordinates are NESSECARY. Hmmmm dump of the week, niiiiice. Thanks for everyones reply!!

The .cfg file contains Home, favs and recent destinations. Nothing else should require removing.
Re. Read Only: I've found that this issue arises when Tomtom is backed up, and then restored, from a CD / DVD.
Burning the disk sets the attributes to Read Only (IMHO), so the files still retain the Read Only attributes when copied back to the SD card.
There are ways of changing this either on the Kaiser, or on a PC, but my prefered method would be to place the SD card into a reader on the PC, select the card/drive - Right click for properties and unselect the Read Only attributes to all.
Note - Properties can be accessed through mouse right click !
thanks everyone

SIM Manager and SIM Contacts

Hi All
In my contacts lists I have the windows contacts and the SIM contacts, all there to confuse me.
is there anyway i can only show the windows / outlook contacts when accessing the contacts on my phone ? I dont really want to delete the SIM contacts as I use them in another phone occasionally
Any ideas ?
Cheers
one idea for you, SEARCH
The answer is easy to find. You gotta work for your knowledge on this site.
waste of post instead of helping...i guess so is mine but i would help if i knew or not post at all..
well documented that setting must be cooked into a Rom. If you simply toggle the Registry Key it will reset itself!

It has worked for me when I have reboot numerious times, after flashing 3 different roms L26, Dutty's and others. Some of the programs I use require soft resets after installation. I usually have to got through at least 4 resets to get my programs and tweaks installed properly.

Nice Answer and terribly helpful that.
I did infact try a search which brought little that would help other than a hundred or so posts containing the odd word.
Please stop having a go at those who want some seemingly simple help advice. If you know it GIVE IT.....
I use a range of different forums and all have been great to use with a wealth of information to help and guide us mortals out of a hole as well as offering info on how to make the best of things. These forums are backed up by some pretty knowledgeable folk. This is one of the best I've used.
However its also one of few forums where some of its members who deem themselves as gods regularly seem to want pound those who simply want some help.
I often read posts on here where people have asked a pretty simple question and got berrated for it. All they get as a response is '...SEARCH..SEARCH...SEARCH......SEARCH.... ' JUST HELP for godsake
C'mon man, theres soooo much info on here ,IT CAN BE hard to search for the right answer especially if the correct search terms or keywords arent being used, it can become frustrating for anyone seeking help and therefor easier just to create a new post. No ones fault just the sign of a great forum.
Please though....have patience and offer help. We're not all gods
Cheers
use the file under my attachment. it will hide ur sim contacts and it will survive soft resets/power down. This cab was posted under L26's V9 thread.

Glad you found it ssunstone. Some people in these forums can be really anal about giving out info and get off on telling them to search. Sometimes its valid but I see many times when it isnt.
I agree for new users to the site it can be incredibly confusing due to the shear volume of info and threads, added to this is the fear that doing something wrong may brick your expensive device its no wonder that people ask for conformation.

Massive Newbie!

Well basically ive just got my new HTC diamond today and was looking at installing a few apps, programs and themes ect.
But after spending 2 hours browsing the forum im just getting more and more confused by the minute about what you actually have to do
Can anyone link me or tell me how i go about getting programs themes and app's on to my diamond?? im mainly wanting to change the home screen (customize it)
Help Much Appreciated.
Jack
Right after further searching i found i need "TouchFlo 3D" i downloaded this and put it in the program files folder then go to install it on my phone and nothing happens, asif i dont even click it .. please can someone help!!
Jack,
Ur diamond out of the box already has TF3D, go to start>settings>today and choose on the second tab ('items') TF3D, click the X in the upper right corner and then your homescreen will change to the one with the nice flip clock on it.
But why don't u start with the manual that came with your diamond?
Get to know the device a little more, use it for awhile and then decide what you want to change to let it better suit your needs.
For tons of information and good applications you're absolutely in the right place here, though it can be a bit overwhelming at first, but you'll figure it out i'm sure (cuz i did to and i'm not a whizkid whatsoever..lol...)
Have fun with your diamond, it's a great device with lotsa possibilities

Well its not actually out of the box i meant new as in ive just got it
Got it off my dad as hes just upgraded, anyways after searching even more i decided to have a little play.
i followed this guide :
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416211
And used this rom :
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=607860
But im getting numerous problems, at first it worked spot on with no problems then after about an hour i went to see if i had a message and it had froze .. now it just keeps turning itself on and off all the time and basically hard resetting itself as every time it turns off i have to do the stylus alignment and date ect.
What am i doing wrong?!
You're doing nothing wrong, but you skipped a step that's crucial when flashing a Diamond:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=540290&highlight=mtty
If you perform mtty before you flash a new rom it will most probably solve all the weird errors such as you describe.
Hi, i tryed that but i dont have windows 7 just XP so its not compatable
sure it is compatible, it's even easier to use with XP cuz you don't have to change the drivers.
Be sure to read the first post of the thread carefully, lol, look at the big sentence in red:
NOTE: WORKS WITHOUT DRIVER INSTALL ON XP
Your right its working perfect now, but the tom only came with one keyboard option, and its not "qwerty" can i get an add on or something so i can get the other option's on my device (qwerty, compact,phone keypad)
Thanks for all your help Nirak
Just tryed two other ROM's and there both the same it shows in the screen shots that you can change between the different ones but i keep getting the same keyboard layout no matter what ROM i use, like it wont let me change it to qwerty or phone keypad
Could someone please help me, as its getting quite frustrating now.
Thanks Jack
