Problems GPS and WM 6.1 - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

hello, I'm from Spain, I have a Kaiser that after upgrading to WM6.1 stop the GPS function properly.
Radio is 1.65.17.56 and not that I do to fix it. If it can be.
I hope someone can help me, thanks.

Try changing Radios or get the GPS test prog which helps out a lot.

I do not have much knowledge about this subject, which would have to do?
It may change the radio? where he could get another version?
Thank you

1) Check your GPS settings here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=330235.
GPS Test is a little program that can help you to check your GPS; you can find it here http://chartcross.co.uk/products/WM00002_details.asp
When I upgraded and had a similar problem, I had to hard reset and upgrade again, then my GPs was OK.
Good luck.

some radios give better gps performance but could decrease battery life and/or data speeds. just remember some radios wont work certain roms causing no wifi,no gps at all,no calls or camera functionality

Contact the provider

I know who can help, that is if they choose to, it's HTC themselves (assuming you have an HTC branded TyTN II). When I complained to their tech support dept here in the UK the chap told me no-one else had complained about this issue as far as he knew other than me! Clearly if they get many disgruntled customers complaining it may help (although judging by their response to the driver petition, maybe not), at least they won't be able to treat it as a non-issue.
Yes it's a radio related problem and different radios affect GPS performance but I've not found any reports of Radios under WM 6.1 yet that equalled the GPS performance of the original WM 6.0 setup, although the eMo one does look good from what I've read, other than the built in branding - not tried it.
Let us know what HTC say (or if it's a carrier provided phone, what the carrier says). I think the hardware provider should be the one coming up with a solution and it should not be up to you to risk your warranty trying different radios to fix it for yourself.

the first thing I did when I came mandar the problem was an email to HTC to see how it solved, that was last Friday and have not yet replied. I hope that HTC find a solution because it is not a cheap machine.
Thank you for all the answers ...

Is it an HTC branded TyTN II that came in an HTC box? If so, get your identifying numbers ready that are on the box (or underneath where the battery is) and give them a call - there are cheaper rate numbers on one of the leaflets inside the box. This may (at least in my case) work out cheaper than calling the number on their website for your country. Ask them to acknowledge your email/web form submission and if they claim to not know about this being a problem, ask them to email that statement back to you. Ask them if they liaise with other countries HTC support and share info on complaints about this from elsewhere... Let us know how that goes.

Help Please Australian D810 Rom

G'Day Crew,
Hope you can help, I am trying to find or obtain the original Rom that came with my Dopod D810, as I upgraded to the GPS rom and since that my reception and signal strength has gone from great to very poor. In fact I cant even use the 3G network!
I am in Brisbane Australia, spoke with the service contractor and they said that the GPS rom was not compatible with our network providers, and they were expecting the new "Australian GPS Rom" by the end of the month...............
They would not help me or send me the original Rom.
I have searched the web and this forum but so far have come up empty.

Ausdim,
Thankyou Thankyou thankyou. I will look at loading the "older" style rom in place if it is possible?
Is it possible to change roms with a lower number? Is it possible to change between official and cooked roms and restore again in case of warranty problems?
Thanks again, great help and so quick too.

G'day,
I've lived in OZ, luv it there.
I haven't seen the original Dopod ROM posted anywhere. You can use the SSPL utility that is available in the FTP of this site to load the original HTC WWE rom (also available here) which might work for your network. I've been using the Dopod GPS test rom with no problems in Europe, including 3G and HSDPA. What is Telstra doing over there? Oh, maybe you're not on the big T .
Good luck.
Matterhorn, I am glad you liked Australia! I am with Optus, unfortunately since I upgraded to the "official" GPS rom my signal strength has plummeted.
I just jumped straight in and changed it without thinking, my fault.
I dont know what the original rom was or where I can locate it...............
Hoping someone can give me an answer or point me in the right direction.
Thanks again for the replies, really appreciate it.
Kind regards,

Hello friend. If isn't here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...inity_Upgrades
means that don't exist. I'm searching for the Official Portuguese (Portugal not Brazil) ROM too. Drug_Store managed to dump the original Portuguese ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296035) but no one is willing to help transform the raw data into a real ROM .
I hope you find your answers. Good luck
G"day Crew,
Thanks for all the replies. I spoke with the Dopod Service Contractor in Australia, they said that the current AUSTRALIAN Rom was :
1.17.707.4, not too sure which radio though.............
I asked them if they had an FTP site or could email/upload it for me and they refused, only way was to go see them, trouble is I live 1600km away!!
Will try and track it down or think of something.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again.

Dopod GPS ROM fine with Telstra in Oz.
I have been using this GPS ROM with Telstra in Vic and Tassie on the Next G network and haven't had any such problems. In most areas it registers "3G", dropping to "E" in some regional areas and "G" in parts of Tassie. I seem to have signal wherever anyone else has it.
Might be an Optus issue. I had an e-mail from Dopod Oz to say they are still working on a local Oz GPS Rom, but couldn't give me a date.
Camstech,
Thanks for the reply. Since installing the rom things havent been the same on the optus network, so far all posters in Australia have come from 3 or Telstra, so may be an Optus problem...................
My phone does not "auto" switch between networks or bands such as 3G/G/E/H it only stays on 3G with no signal strength at all and when I call my phone from the landline, it tells me that I am not available..............
Rom/Software problem or hardware do you think? if hardware I still have 7 days under ELF....................

No issues here for Sydney Optus
I just bought my Dopod D810 on last Saturday (3/3/07), not even aware of GPS and ROMS etc. Was doing search on google, and found this forum. I has excited my Dopod could do GPS!
Having the pda for only few days, I was quite hasitant to flash down my pda down the drain, but I took my chances.
I spent about 3 hours reading the forum, getting all the facts and downloading the latest shiped rom, the bypass software and did it. It took about 15-20 min and it was done.
Now I have the latest ROM and GPS!.
Found and installed a freeware GPS monitor application, and within few minutes it was telling me where I was standing. It was tops!
Just got tomtom 6.0 installed... Damn... I need more ram for the Australian maps! So off to the shop to get a mini SD card, Owww.. non in stock!
My tomtom works, but of coarse, cannot show me the way, yet...
Hope this helps from a non-technical person.
If you want to know all the files I used for this process, just ask, and I'll try to provide/download them for you.
Cheers!

I had to change my US Cingular SIM card. It didn't work properly with 3G. You might ask Optus if they can give you a replacement SIM card if it is old, it can't hurt. Have you tried a Hard reset? I know it is a PITA, but if your phone doesn't work, you don't have much to loose. Also, you should check the settings in your Phone app, ie. automatic scanning of networks etc.
Good luck.
G'Day Matterhorn,
After much cajoling and pestering of the service centre here in Australia, I managed to get the Australian (no GPS) original shipping ROM, I have installed it and the signal strength is much improved, not great, but a lot better. Hopefully with the new Australian GPS ROM and Radio Rom it will improve more?
How do I go about getting it published to the Wiki page for others to get if they need it?
A big thank you for everyone's help and to Teleplan, thanks guys.
Regards,
BIQ
Hello friend could you please upload it in a public service (because XDA ROMs will be taken out).
I suggest rapidshare, 4shared, megaupload ... you name it .
Remember zip the ROM (with a discrete name) and put a password in it. This will extend the lifetime that file will be accessible (yes most free file sharing and storage websites check files to control illegal material).
I'm not up to use your original ROM but of course I'd like to have it .
Thank you
---------------------
EDIT: BTW you can edit the wiki pages to put a link to your Australian Original ROM
I would not mined having the original ROM as well, even though I have no signal issues..
Here is a link for the file, just uploaded it.

gps update
hi Vatche,
you said your update worked? I have the same rom update installed, no network issues but can't get gps activity or icons or anything.
Did you say you had to add a registry patch? and a bypass software?
Can you tell me what they are and where to get them? If they are not big,
would you mind sending them to me @ [email protected] please?
thanks.
Yes, Initially, the GPS icon did not appear.
Download a Windows Mobile registry editor software (there are few on freewareppc.com), then search for the registry changes in these forums, it is only a single entry change, and the icon appears in the settings window.
If you still have issues, let me know, I'll chase up my notes for you.
Note: Once you flush the new ROM, OPTUS ZOO wap pages no longer work. You can still use 3G for internet access, but not the ZOO pages. I discovered this after I flushed mine, and for me, don't care anyway.
Regards

Another broken GPS.

Hey guys, hope you can help.
Successfully updated my V1615 to WM6.1 on Friday.
Before I did this, I had TomTom installed which used to get a lock on to the satellites in less than 30 seconds.
I used the device with TomTom on Saturday and after an initial delay of locking on (which I assumed normal as it was a fresh install) it worked.
However trying to use it today and it just will not pick up a signal.
The ROM I used was the Vodafone one linked to from the Wiki list. (3.08.161.0) (Radio 1.64.08.21).
I have also tried Changing the Radio ROM to 1.65.17.10 but no difference.
It's set to Other NMEA device, 4800 baud and COM4 like it always was. I have run a QuickGPS download.
Strange thing is, when I go into the GPS config in TomTom I used have all the satellites listed in gray which would then turn blue when locked on but now they aren't listed at all.
Please help! I do have a bluetooth gps receiver from when I had my Hermes so I can get but part of the reason to get the Kaiser is so I have an all in one unit. I'm just in the middle of a hard reset to try again but does anyone have any thoughts on the matter? It's gone from being a brilliant GPS unit to a dodo!
Thanks!
Test if Google Maps finds some satelittes, just to check if there is a problem with TomTom
http://www.google.co.uk/mobile/gmm/stp-js.html
If that doesn't work, I'd reinstall the old ROM and see if the functionality returns and if it doesn't assume you have somehow broken the GPS.

wow you picked the wrong radio to change too. You should have read about it before changing to 1.65.17.10. You should do some research on what you did to yourself.

Maybe you should read the thread that redbandana is talking about... maybe the bit about it being locked to your phone and you can't downgrade it... not really a good choice 'cos he's now stuck with that radio and also maybe stuck with WM6.1 (which also sucks - WM6.0 faster and more stable imho).
I had to do a hard reset and reinstall apps. TomTom no longer works. LiveSearch does RunGPS does. Neither TomTom or GPSTest can find the GPS. Any suggestions? When you choose other NMEA device in TomTom options are Serial on USB and COM7: that's it.
Thanks for any suggestions.
Well, it works now! I used to be able to get a lock on indoors, but now I can't. However if I go outside I cado get a lock on in TomTom. It seems like the GPS is now less sensitive, but hey, it works aand that's the main thing.
I'll do a search later but does anyone have a link to the thread regarding this dodgy radio. I did try and downgrade it but as you say, it didn't. I have some more coming in this week anyway so I can give this to someone who doesn't need/want GPS and I'll have the shiny new one. Ah the joys of working in IT!
Oh, and thanks to IK for the Google Maps link, brilliant app! I'd seen it on the PC but not pocket PC.
FWIW, my Tomtom uses the "Internal GPS" setting, not "other NMEA device"

This is the link for the 'dodgy radio'. It looks like it is also an AT&T only radio.
Thanks ach2. Did a search and have spent all morning readin it!
I'm now having issues with the actual phone operation, intermitant no sound or buzzing.
I think I'm going to take a chance and return it to Vodafone. They do a next day swap under our corporate contract.
If there is any comeback I'll just plead ignorance!
Satrted to have the buzzing earpiece and broken camera issue with this radio, so it's gone back to Vodafone as faulty! Replacement is currently still on stock Vodafone WM6.0 ROM. To be honest I think I'll stick with 6.0, as 6.1 didn't really offer anything over it.
Roll on 7.0!!

If you're sticking to WM6.0 (i do too) try Q-mobile 1.2 with radio 1.27.12.17 or 1.27.12.32 - they both work well in the UK.

My friend, you need this (Vodafone WM 6.1 pre release) and use it with this Niki 1.58.11.07 Radio.
Been running this for a few days and basically I've changed my opinion on my V1615 from wanting to sell to now enjoying using it.
Highlights include 30 - 55 second GPS fix in TomTom, much much better speaker phone and better call quality.
Try these out and I'm sure you'll agree.
Thanks guys, maybe I'll try them over the weekend.
Actually, that Vodafone 6.1 ROM is the one I tried and to be honest I didn't see much difference between that and the stock 6.0 one.
As long as I'm outside I get a lock on in TomTom in about 15 seconds which is good enough for me. On my old one that I bricked I was sure I used to get a signal inside as well.
I'm just looking at the Wiki for the Q-mobile one.
Thanks again for the help, suggestions and info. This is what makes the internet great! Complete strangers helping each other out.

Do you not experience the key lock bug in WM 6? Was one of the main reasons why I upgraded to 6.1.

What's that? Is that the one where you press end call to end a call and sometimes it locks your touch screen? If so yes, but not very often.
Yeah something to do with when you set your device with a password and it goes into sleep mode during a call and then you wake it up and the start menu stops working.

ATT Tilt- possible radio problems, total noob needs help

Hi guys, I really did search first, I promise. I have been having connectivity issues (not making calls, lost data connections, etc...) since I updated to the ATT Official Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM (3.57.502.2 WWE) with radio version 1.65.21.18. I am trying to determine if I need to upgrade my radio version. I found the thread with all the radio versions for my phone but don't know anything about them. I did get that I should try different ones until I find one that works for me. So do I need to install the HardSPL on my phone (or did the Official ATT rom upgrade do that already)? From there do I run that RUU.exe file on the desktop (or what)? It would be great if someone could put this in super simple terms for me.
Thanks in advance,
-Max
one word for your info, "WIKI"
I did look over the wiki for some time, here is my hang up. Jockyw2001 posted in an SPL thread that "SPL3.56 is part of the latest AT&T Rom which is dated June 6. 2008" So since I did the official ATT upgrade and my ROM date is 07/17/08, does that mean that I already have SPL 3.56 on my device? I can not find a post about how to determine what SPL version (if any) is installed on my device. If SPL is already installed, is there any danger in installing an older version of SPL or reinstalling one?
Thanks again

So you are saying that the stock rom and stock radio are not working correctly, no cooked roms or other carrier radios?
Did the problems start right after you updated?
Oh and your problem seems similar to the one in this thread here, well least is sounds similar to me anyways...

Yup, stock radio and rom as suggested by ATT, whom their customer service now claims they do not support WM6.1. I've never used a cooked rom and really only come here for device information and applications. I did have problems before I upgraded the rom but they have much worse since. The thread you posted is similar but they mostly talk about an "H" connection. I am in the DC metro area (USA) and get 3G all the time now, I wonder if that is part of the problem, I never get an EDGE network signal anymore.
Well... I just found THIS buried over on the ATT support forums
Clp1970 01-21-2009 10:33:16 AM
I guess we just got 3G network here. I haven't been able to make/receive calls for 5 days now. Tech support supposedly looking into issue. My phone switches bewteen 3G and EDGE constantly. Anyone else having this issue? What was the resolution? I don't want a refurbished Tilt if they can't come to a resolution (why would I want the same darn phone if it doesn't work well with 3G as advertised?) I have already drove 20 minutes to the nearest store for a new SIM card..which did no good. There isn't anyway of turning off 3G network unless I install software I have seen mentioned on this forum and well, I don't know about that...I paid for this phone to do what it said, and it isn't.

And this is the reply to it over there....
tilteduser 01-21-2009 08:42:13 PM
Common problem that can be either due to problems with the rollout or that the local towers cannot handle 3G as effectively or at a greater distance as the same tower could for Edge. These are some related threads and posts but there are a lot more. As noted in these posts if there is a local AT&T store run by AT&T then you might pop in and confirm some of the problems with them.

The tendency is to blame the phone but the reality is often different and that includes from customer support who offered to swap my phone several times but this obviously would not work because it affected many other users as well differing phone manufacturers and models.

Timing of it is close enough to make me wonder, but I had been using HSDPA.. But I have been getting the same problems you are talking about when the phone is set to 3g as well. The other thing that is starting to make me think its something ATT did to their network is that the OP from the thread that I linked on here lives 20 mins west of my location, and I am 15-20 mins north of DC... I may go to one of the local att stores and see what they have to say (tho that means for me that I get to flash my phone back to the stock rom )

Big problems with my diamond... gsm signal lost permanently, battery problems...

dear all...
i deceided a few weeks ago to change from nokia to the htc touch diamond. a friend of mine has an htc touch hd and i really liked it. the touch display was my favorit. i don't like apple products, so the iphone was never an option, also i don't like samsung products (mobile ones) because i had a samsung mobile and had a lot of troubles with it.
well... since i have the touch diamond, i also have troubles with it. in the first three days i wasn't able to phone -> the phone hangs up and if i tried to dial a number no one can hear me and i didn't hear the one i called. i gave it back to the shop for repair -> after two weeks i got it back and was told there was an software problem and it is now fixed. ok... well it was fixed, but new problems were upcoming. first of all the battery -> it's not possible to pass a day from morning to the late evening with charging the diamond only once... first i thought this is my biggest problem but then i revealed that an other bigger problem exists which actually effects my job. i'm not reachable because my mobile losts connectivity as soon as it goes to standby. when i activate it over the power button it searches for an gsm signal but it doesn't find one. it doesn't matter if i'm in my flat or if i stand with the mobile near to the radio mast. it only helps if i turn the phone function off and on.
my friend told me about the opportunity that this forum exists where people working on developing roms and other nice features for various mobiles and i should take a look at it. well.... i registered here, read the howtos and guides and flashing bibles and tried nearly all available roms here to improve the behaviours of my diamond, but i don't succeed, well this is the time, where i capitulate and ask for help... my provider can't help me... they said that the mobile is not so often sold and they don't hear anything about customer complaints...

can anyone give me suggestions what to do?
can anyone help me to make my diamond a mobilephone it should be or give me an advice what i can do?
i also think about resetting the phone to factory defaults (at the moment i'm searching for a guide) and give the handy back and pay the upgrade price for the touch hd... my friend doesn't have any problem with it and i don't know any other way out of this situation... at the moment i have a multimedia device with wich i can't phone and couldn't be reached which in my opinion is absolutly not acceptable.
kind regards
unlock it and use bsb rom
losing GSM signal when the phone is on standby? I'm just making a guess here, but I believe you might have a problem with the ROM and or just only the radio. unlock it and flash a new ROM and or a radio to see if it works
as for battery life, the Diamond battery is very bad, and the radio you use is directly related to the battery life, some radio sucks battery out dry pretty quickly, but normally, this phone requires a charge once per day

GPS 'Hardware' on the Tilt

hi Guys,
i have been scouring the site and i have found lots of info on getting a quick fix on the GPS and which radios work best, i have downloaded lots of radios, tried different roms but no matter what i try, I cant get a fix PERIOD. i have also googled to try and find out if the GPS itself is a replaceable part on the tilt but no info seems to be available, having said that I would definately appreciate any input, i have tried stuff like GPSgate, GPSproxy, HTC GPS tool, GPSTest, VisualGPSce, QuickGPS, QuickPosition and NONE of those tools has shown me what a GPS fix looks like, I have seen up to 8 satellites on the HTC tool, they show up and dance around for about 1 or 2 minutes and then dissapear never to be seen again until after a reboot of the phone.
i have also borrowed a friends Tilt, and placed them side by side, and watched his phone get a fix in about 1 minute, and then stuck around for about 20 more minutes and then finally end the test in frustration.
is the GPS a replaceable part?
any input would be greatly appreciated
Phone: AT&T branded TILT
ROM:Ultimate-X2.V11.Premium (wm6.5)
RADIO:1.71.09.01
Protocol:25.75.40.02.eMoH
My advice to you would be to just keep trying to find a radio ROM that works for you. I recently got a Tilt, and I flashed some odd 5 or 6 radios before I found one that enabled WiFi and GPS for me. Ironically, its the one you are currently using xD.

No but the antenna sticker (with fragile embedded tracks) is. That said, you mentioned you still get greyed out satelite details showing and changing in your nav software so that may not be an issue (you've not mentioned if this sticker above the battery bay has been disturbed at all). If you are worried about whether your new setup has contributed to the problem, the answer is simple, was it working OK before you changed the ROM/Radio or SPL from original WM 6.0?
Oh and welcome to the forum illspamu - I hope you don't live up to your name

thank you, havent given up I know there is a radio out there for me.
@Flying Kiwi
thanks
I am a total newb to this, so this info about the antena is something i need to check, it is worth mentioning that i did buy this tilt with a broken screen so someone probably used it for a hockey puck, its been a great phone minus the GPS but I recently became demanding and want to see it working.
the GPS has never worked beyond showing me some satelites for a couple of minutes and its been the same regardless of ROM/Radio.
about the handle, worry not, its amazing how an email address like that can keep spammers off
