Googlemaps and "Use GPS" function - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

can someone pls tell me how can I get Google Maps to "use GPS" ?
I enabled "assist GPS" through Advanced setup program ... but I still cant enable GPS in google maps ... its greyed out ... (so I turned it back to disable now)
I know it works because it was ok with the 1.37 ROM ... I upgraded to latest and it does not seem to work
btw TT7 works ok ..
any helps is much appreciated ... I tried searching threads here but to no help...
thank you

bump ... anyone ?

Thats strange... so confirm your ROM version and Googlemaps version... ????
I have never had problems with that on any ROM
NB: don't enable AGPS waste of time...

using bElite v0.97_Fixed and Google maps 2.2.0.16 (downloaded straight from googlemaps link)

just set the gps manually on com4 and baud rate to 57600 it should work

IGO maps problem on the wind mobile 6.1

Hi all,
i did download rom xda-forums but and install mobile telephone,
everythings is ok but igo maps is not starting.
tom-tom navigation is working and google maps olso.
rom version: 3,02,405,0 WWE
radio version: 1,58,26,20
protocol version: 25,70,30,05H
You mean only maps are not runnung or Igo itself?
Go to the settings
disable HTC home
reset device
Start IGO8
it is working ...
When you are finished bring back HTC home
and there goes the circle
i dont sure because i did upgrade only 2 days ago.
i can see only igo now.
A-GPS should be disabled for IGO to run also.

download either schaps advanced configuration or kaiser tweak both found on this forum. the diable A-GPS is one of the options.
This was the problem for me also, but assisted GPS is usually off by default. Also to fix my problem, all I did was to download and isntall the latest release of iGO8, problem solved! and it works with HTC Home!
PS for clarification I have Igo 8 v8.0.0.41506
hi friend.

software to fix GPS?

I have a htc Kaiser and i want to know how many software out there that can speed up the gps? I tried quickGPS and SeaSGEE. Does anyone know anything else beside those 2 softwares? thank you
Try enabling the A-GPS option via AdvanceConfig or KaiserTweak (both available on forum for download).
You can play around with Franson's GPS Gate. Its very good software.
Cheers,
Chris
I installed gpstest, then run it, and then Google Maps and Live search are almost instantaneous.

"The file 'QuickGPS' cannot be opened.
Either it is not signed with trusted certificate,
or one of its components cannot be found.
If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file."
Please help to find a solution to fix this error, then enable GPS.
Thanks
on igo, go on settings, next page, GPS, and uncheck that option and press autodetect, and should work.

thank you for your concern
i well tray this cabs

btw
i have some question about the gps-function
On the branded jade is only a-gps activatet or?
i heared that tomtom or igo won't work with a-gps?
is there any software or way to use gps without internet or must i use a new rom?
thanks in advance =)
any gps software, doesn't use internet. i have igo and miomap installed on my jade, and everything is fine.
do i have to flash the rom to use it or not?
you don't have to flash any rom. you have to install the application, and then will work. i can help you with igo settings if you need them (it's possible not to work from the first time).
oh thank you =)
Yes please so i can try it tomorrow^^
give me your email address please.
MOD EDIT: Changed e-mail addy to save you from spam bots
i've sent you the archive, but, you will have to complete some files. I mean, map in content/map and language in content/lang because i didn't know what map you need and what language are you using. I've put as default english voice.
have this worked? any more ideas if not?
for me is working so fine. is not working 4u? if not, please tell me the error (remember, to put the language files, voice files, and map file).
I have the same problem, I'll try these ... thanks

iGo Amigo for Kaiser

Does anyone have any experience of getting iGo Amigo working with their Kaiser? TTS?
works fine...
but i had to turn off "assisted gps" function. Not tried TTS.
Thanks rothod.
TTS is what I'm looking for. Can you try it?
Also, have you previously used iGo 8? If so, do you find Amigo better, or worse?
Works very well for most aspects. Updated graphics and new interface. TTS works perfectly. Major 'bug' of backlighting controlled by Windows with no override by program. Can use on 8.3 maps.

The display a bit more cartoonish - more like Garmin's than the clean iGo8.3. TTS a bit more precise in pronounciation, and more courteous - lots more "Please turn" etc. Too chatty for my liking.
Still prefer iGo8.3
Amigo has less options
Hmmm.. thanks lads.
Going to install iGo 8 then. This is what I've been using on my trusty (old) Mio 269+ for months mow, and I love it.
Was going to use Amigo on my HTC TyTN II (when I eventually receive the device!), but I think I'll put iGo 8 on it instead.
Anyone know how to get amigo to run from today screen if i copy exe to phone it will not load. cheers

IGO 8.3.2.64873 With TTS - OK
Hi all
I have the PDACorner X-V1 and I just installed the iGO 8.3.2.64873 with TTS files, and it seems to be working, I heard the TTS voice when I choosed my language, and iGO is now running.
I have both working on my Tilt fine. Amigo is nice, however iGO8 will still be my primary GPS program.
iGo8.3.2.64873 -
IS there a solution on how to make IGO find the satellites faster ?? i read many comments from others in this forum but somehow i could not find any proper answer.
IGO6 plus it is finding the satellites very fast when comparing these two..
comments/advice it will be appreciated.
iGo8.3.2.64873
Att tilt , W.M6.1
Go to the Save folder>system.ini and add your [GPS] information there (baud rate, port).
Am I allowed to ask if there is an IGO8 .cab... and if so please someone tell me where?
Thank you so much.

No, it's not allowed as it falls under warez. Plus, it doesn't even come in cab form.
@ fatosb, have you tried running Quick GPS or Quick Position?

External GPS settings:
Programs Tab: GPS program port: Com4
