Noni GPSPlot and Kaiser... - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Hello, I have problem with Noni GPSPlot. When i try activate GPS in this application then it say me:
Error!
Unable to read GPS!
Does Noni GPSPlot working on HTC Kaiser? Other software for GPS like TomTom or HTC GPS Tool work fine on my Kaiser. I have original HTC ROM. Where is the problem? Best regards and thanks a lot for any help.

It works on mine
Check in Advanced Settings that GPS is on COM4 with 4800 bauds.
Then I only have the forst box checked and 48.0
Check that the fix is working in the Satellites menu.

GPS help on Kaiser

Hi all,
I recently instaled WM 6.1 on my Kaiser. Except from some good things there are some bad ones. The worst one is a problem with GPS.
Software I use (IGo and Google Maps) can not detect GPS device.
Any solutions to this problem?
Thanks in advance for any help,
Mike
Need more details......

What ROM did you install? Does it or do you have QuickGPS or SeaSGEE installed? What device do you have?

Some ROMs and Radios have compatibility issues.
Quite possibly, it could be GpsGate if you have it output GPS data on the wrong port.
If you have GpsGate, uninstall it, soft reset the phone, and try again.
If you GpsGate isn't the issue, go to Settings -> Connections -> External GPS
and make sure you have "GPS program port" set to COM4.
Come to think of it, my GPS isn't working either Looks like I'm having the same problem as you.
I just solved it right now by doing a hard reset.
Sorry it took mie so long to asnwer but I was out on a trip with no access to info you guys asked for to help me solve my problem,
My device is HTC TyTN II Kaiser, bought not through some GSM company but with oryginal HTC setup (prior to this unlucky upgrade I made).
From Settings -> device information i can read the following info:
ROM version 3.03.405.0 WWE
ROM date 01/08/08
radio version 1.64.06.04
protocol version 25.70.40.02W
I did try to set the external GPS port in
Settings -> sytem -> external GPS (i have it here not in system -> connections)
i used the following settings
I used GPS program port: com4
GPS hardware port: none (when i try to set it to com0 or com1 it just gets changed to none once i close and reopen then window. baud rate 4800
access - anabled manage GPS automaticaly.
I do hope info you guys now have will make it possible for you to sugest some easy way to overcome this problem.
BTW - problem is that tom tom or i-go just do not detect GPS device.
as a supporting software I have Quick GPS which works ok - it downloads latest satelite data with out major problems.
Thanks for help in advance,
Mike

than there has to be something wrong w/ settings somewhere. if u had a faulty gps reciever than quickgps wouldn't work either.
try a hard reset and reinstall the nav programs.

Hi, I had the same problem but with TomTom Navigator on a Kaiser. I tried all setting possibilities but nothing helped. After a hard reset, it was OK with automatic settings, nothing to change. Hope it helps.
hmm i've used both tomtom and igo and havent had any problems...try disabling agps
Thx guys,
Not sure why I did not try it before but after your sugestions I just set all the settings to factory and it started working for both software.
I feel a bit stupid, sorry to waste your time and thx for help,

GPS Setup

hey guys,
Ne one knows how to make Garmin XT see the onboard GPS hardware???
Cheers
If I'm not wrong Garmin has an automatic search for GPS hardware function. That failing, just go to the settings in Garmin and indicate GPS is on COM4.
And just one question about the GPS : we must let 4800 bds or we can change the speed ?? In that case what is the best speed ??
Thank you !

Intermittent GPS

Hi all, yesterday i've changed the "external gps settings":
COM8 For virtual GPS port and COM 4 as Hardware GPS port, baud 9600.
Today i was using my GPS the first time after the settings descripted before...
The GPS Works, but at regular intervals of 2 sec, then stops for 10 sec (No GPS Found with Tomtom) and works again.....
Now i have 3 questions:
1) Can i solve this WITHOUT an Hard Reset??
2) If i disable the Virtual com port, tomtom DON'T let me choose another COMport (it skips the Comport configuration page) and, when it allows me to select the right port, the COM4 isn't there
3) There are A LOT of comport into "External GPS Settings", some starting with COM..X and others ports named GPD..X ..... What type of ports are??
(Ps: i have already installed tomtom again)
Did you try to disable AGPS?
I have only seen this problem when AGPS is enabled (via advanced config) too
Also the defualt GPS COM ports is 4 and baud rate of 4800 (should be no need to change this) and why mess with external GPS settings when the device has internal GPS?
I have same problem on iGO8 with AGPS enabled.
You guys are right! The A-GPS was ON (strange, i don't remember i've activated it)
If i play with the external gps app is because i would to share the same com port to 2 gps apps.....
BTW when i set the com4 in Hardware port, reopening the app it disappear.
Now i have Agps disabled, External gps app "void" and tomtom don't let me choose the comport (it switch from baud speed to mainscreen)
Hmm, I had no problem at all using GPS at standard settings for:
Igo
TrackMe
GoogleMaps
at the same time!

diamond has disabled agps out of the box.
Hmmm I had no problems the first couple of times I tried iGo when I first got the device. Then I tweaked it, enabled AGPS and all hell broke loose (presumably due to this setting, though not 100% sure since I changed lots of things). Disabled it on my own, trying to back-track, now it's better but I still got problems with GPS lost...
By the way, is there any use setting COM4 to high speeds? Does it reall improve performance?
I had the same problem after flashing the actual rom build from HTC club. I am currently sticking to this one in italian and no problem at all.
P.S.: Just noticed you're from my same city
All ok now, i suppose that if we leave blank the GPS port (no HW port) into first COM screen of external gps app, tomtom skip the comport settings screen, and don't allow you to choose another one.
I've Hardresetted my pda yesterday, and i've seen that out of the box, the diamond has COM4 selected by default.
I don't want to change anything now (i have no time in those days to do another Hard reset) BUT, if you have problems regarding the GPS COM Settings screen in tomtom, try to set the COM4 into GPS PORT (not hardware port) of the "External Gps" app.
hello everyone
i have the same problem of signal GPS lost and coming back after a few minutes of use (i use IGO 8), then lose again, then back again, and so on.
I installed the new flash rom from HTC eclub, (QMR-RUU_Diamond_HTC_FRA_1.93.406.1_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship.exe)
Even if i disable the a-gps using advance config, the problem is still there.
Do you think that problem comes from that new HTC ROM ?
Any solutions?
NO... I had the same problem on old ROM very rarely and solved with Quick GPS , I will see if the problem persist on new ROM...
I had this disconnecting problem too with Tomtom 7,
now with Bepe 0.98 and radio Radio v1.00.25.07, all is OK, no disconnect at all this morning ( 2 hours of GPS use ).
But I don't know what resolve the problem, Bepe's ROM or the new .07 radio
my diamond refuse to accept setting for hardware port and rate......

Never mind the setting. Is AGPS disabled?
yes its disabled...
A bit strange, mine works perfectly with iGo, it even updates the position (almost) continuously when in pedestrian mode.
Perhaps you could try an auto detect from your GPS program to reset the link. By the way, what soft are you using?
well im using garmin xt and navigon...garmin display that the program and hardware is com:4
thank u for being patient with me....
I know Garmin works on the Diamond, so I'm running out of ideas... I remember reading that some VOIP programs screw the GPS. Did you install any such program?
If not, what I would do is back up my contacts and calendar and do a hard reset to see if this solves the problem. A bit painful, but will certainly answer the question whether there is something wrong with your hardware or not.
well.. i have changed the rom to karmba version, and it works fine for the last 6 hours..
gps functioning well.
may be the fault was in my previous rom (SwiftBL-WWE-Diamond-ROM-v5-5-Lite)
thank you very much for your help

GPS not found in any program

Hi all,
I have a new Diamond from Orange in France and have troubles using my GPS module since it isn't found in a single program.
Now from the artemis I know that there was a different version in France then in the rest and we needed an adapted version of the GPS driver. Is this the case with the Diamond too?
I actually use the duttys rc2 2.7 version ROM and tried visual gps or tomtom6 and 7 with no result. There is no way I can get them to find a gps module.
So may be some one ha a clue??
Thx.
Finally I made the GPS work with Visual GPS on the com port 4 and 9600baud but in Tomtom7 there is a satellite fix in the gps settings but on the main page it says no gps module or sometimes it says waiting for a valid signal and then goes back to no gps hardware....
Any ideas. I have tried with internal or other nmea settings and it both gets the same result.
Regards J.
My Diamond also not found GPS on auto detect. It needs a manual setting of the COM4 with 4800 or 9600 baud.
also to set: Start > settings > system > external GPS => programs => GPS software Port to COM4
To find the satellites it needs some times. But before the GPS program can work with the satellites it also need some times, to get the satellite datas.
Thx,
I did that alreagy, but I can only configure the program/software port since the Hardware settings are always getting back to zero...
And with these settings Tomtom7 is kinda erratic.....
Ignore the hardware Port. Set the hardware port to NONE. (My device set Hardware port automatic to none)
Only the Softwareport must set to COM4. This setting works fine.

This worked for me too, although settings were already there, just going into the setting and saving got it going.

Kaiser iGO8 no GPS hardware error

Please help!
I can't make iGO8 work on my Kaiser.
If I set GPS settings to ...
Program port: COM4 (default)
Hardware port: none (default) Baud rate : 4800 (default)
Manage GPS automatically : YES (default)
... iGO8 fail to start - freezes at 'STARTING' main screen load
If I change program port, iGO8 starts, but in Settings/GPS - says 'no GPS hardware'
I tried with some registry fixes found in different threades but it didn't work.
Does anyone know how to make it work?
Thanks in advance!
What if you try with autodetecting?
BTW my config reports baud rate=38400...
same problem
i use shifu v4.2 WM6.5 and igo8 has exactly the same problem. on autosearch gps mode phone freezes too.
when i use WM6.1 there was no such problems.
I also use WM6.5 (TPC Titanium Ultimate)
I didn't try TomTom so I can't say if it should work with it.
viaGPS (Made by Mireo-CROATIA) works fine so I suppose it is iGO8
that makes problems.
I used it (iGO8) on my old HTC Magician (WM6.1) with external Bluetooth GPS Receiver and
it worked excellent.
Now I intend to downgrade my Kaiser to WM6.1 because I realy like iGO8.
...Or I'll try some other software from Nav'N'Go (or else) that supports Croatian language.
If someone have some better suggestion please let me know
Thanks!!!
iGO8
OK... I'm just using WM6.1 so maybe the issue arises when using WM6.5...
Sorry I wasn't able to help more :-(
See You
Thanks anyway Pino!
I appreciate your effort !!!
Hi everyone!
I found out what was the problem about my iGO8.
In 'Advanced config' tool under GPS, option Assisted GPS should be disabled.
Now everything works just fine.
Happy you solved but... I was curious and tried to enable Assisted GPS...
The only thing happened was that the PDA did a data connection (probably trying to get AGPS data...)
But... who cares?! The main thing is that you solved and iGO8 is working now!!!
See You
