Quick GPS problem with download data

Hello everyone, i have a problem with QuickGPS app. It doesn't download the data anymore, no matter if it's on automatic or manual. I have tried through ActiveSync, WIFI, GPRS and nothing. It was working fine before, i don't know what happend (i haven't installed anything lately - except Opera Mini 4, but i don't really know if the problem happend before the install or not, i didn't mess with GPS Settings either).
I press download, it connects (sometimes i see the percentage for downloading) and then it says "Connection failed. Please try again later". Also i'm sure i had 5 more days from last download so the data shouldn't have expired yet (is after all 6d23h validity) and at Valid time says "Expired".
Any thoughts?

I had same problem in these few days, but, it worked again after wait few hours and retry. So, I suspect the server was not available. The server/service is probably hosted by htc.

Hmmm... so i can hope is a problem with the data posting site? Because i have this problem since yesterday morning

I just tried it & was successful. Maybe its fixed now.

The only thing that helped for me was a hard reset...

Quick GPS Help

Hi,For some odd reason my quick GPS does not work anymore. My TomTom is non functional as well. I have checked my data connection and it is active. Can somebody help please.
Thanks in advance.

Mine has stopped working as well. It says its expired, and when I click to download, it says "Connection Failed. Please try again later". My connection is good, and I cant figure out what is wrong. My GPS will not pick up any signal, and nothing that uses GPS works now.

Can somebody please assist?

Quick GPS not updating/downloading
I'm having the same problem, last time I downloaded the Quick GPS update was 1/20/09, now it will not update, and I cannot get a GPS fix in google Maps, however using the program GPS Test, it does register the GPS Satelites. Please help. (Yes, I have looked in probably 20 other threads, for my phone Raphael/Fuze and others, and was not able to find a solution)

Indeed there are alot of threads, without any solutions.
Although i have applied all solutions because i had this problem twice.
(Without anything that i had applied before it occured.)

I tried downloading the GPS data through QuickGPS last night, and I can confirm that it does not work. I got the same error: "Connection Failed. Please try again later." I had it synced through Activesync. Not sure what's going on. Hopefully, someone can throw some light on this.

Quick GPS works so me. I just downloaded 5 minutes ago.

still nothing for me, says Connecting... and then i get connection failed, everything else on the phone works fine, internet, weather updates etc.

Here's what I can offer you
Had the same problem once when I was testing roms. Soft reset and once phone comes up wait about 2 minutes for the phone to get its balls and recieve all of its texts and emails and what ever it has to do. Then open internet explorer. Leave it open and try quick gps. If this does not work hard reset. I noticed that if I just tried to access quick gps my network status bars would only show phone connection not data, but If I waited and ran internet browser first it would trick it into working. Once I flashed a different rom problem dissappeared.

I had the same problem, it took me a solid day to figure it out. QuickGPS would never connect no matter the circumstances and TT7 and other apps would say the GPS device was not found.
I figured out that I had installed a VoIP application that had somehow completely turned the GPS off. After going through many posts about it on the forums, looking for files that weren't there, etc. I had to hard-reset the device to get GPS back.
For what it's worth.

Found the solution for ATT Fuze user
First, check if you have a internet connection using IE (important to use IE, Opera connects doesn't mean IE can connect)
If you cannot connect (and you are a Fuze user), run "Disable Proxy", and soft reset.
Now you should have a connection using IE, and you can update QuickGPS or SeaSGee.

so heres my update,I was unable to do anything with "Disable proxy" because like everything else you do a search and get so many posts you can never find anything. But that led me to believe there may be a problem with my connections and their settings as I learned that I was unable to connect to the internet on IE but was able to in Opera. So I went into - All settings, Connections, advanced tab, select network button and there are two dropdowns there, one about connecting to the internet and one about connecting to private networks so on the first one i selected AT&T ISP (which was already selected) and for the second one I changed it fromo AT&T ISP to "My Work Network", and that let me connect to the net on IE and download the Quick GPS updates when I am on WI-FI only, but not when connected soely to AT&T GPRS.
The AT&T ISP setting does not have any Proxy settings selected, is it supposed to?
and the My Work network also does not have any Proxy Settings.
I'd like for this phone to work right, seamlessly, like umm the iphone which I'm thinking I should have got even though I am NOT a fan of Apple and their software(it always seems to work right for the most part though).

i have the same problem. my gps has completly stopped working. my quickgps updates fine though. when i use garmin, it won't find a signal. it just sits there

i changed my baud rate from 4800 to 9600 to get mine working recently, I may have inadvertently changed it to 4800 2 weeks ago when I was trying to fix the GPS problems after looking through like 50 threads on here.

also check to make sure in Settings > Phone > Local Setting > Get Settings that the location is set to LOCATION ON.

I have Navngo Igo8 on my fuze and it kept loosing the signal. I read on one of the gps forums (gpsunderground)that I needed to turn off the Agps on the device and that did it. My quick GPS also works well. I download updates every few days. Not sure exactly what that does but I read that it downloads latest GPS data.

M2D Weather Wont Update?

Hello,
I'm using iolite_v05 WWE ROM that has touchflo as the today screen. The weather worked upon initial flashing (I update it through wifi) but all of a sudden it will not update anymore.
It gives me the error "Unable to retrieve data for selected city" - I have tried other cities, and get the same error (random ones, none close to me) - also have tried updating in other WIFI networks, same problem. It has also been a problem for almost 2 weeks now, so I'm assuming its my phone unless the weather servers disabled service?
What caused this to stop working, and how could I fix it? Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance

anyone?

I get the same problem on just about any Weather Plugin....

it was working fine though

Does your connection use a proxy server ? Try going into your connection settings and disable any proxy server.

No it doesnt - and I have also tried on several different WIFI networks.. so its definitely a software issue on the device.

If you think that it is a software problem, then try reflashing the rom.

If it worked first off then something had changed try different location than usual to see if prob with accuweather, then hard-reset test if you can get weather update? If you do will be worth installing software slowly and seeing if anything you install causes this? If not then re-flash think poldo also has an updated ROM now.

The flash is less than a week old and I've spent what little spare time I have customizing it and adding everything back to it...
Not really looking forward to doing it again
Thanks though...

HELP - Cannot connect 3G/GPRS/EDGE/HSDPA problem

Hi Friends!
Now seems that I have a serious problem, my Kaiser still with the "Cannot connect" problem, displaying the following message in any data transfer attempt:
"Cannot connect for an unknown reason. To check your connection settings and change them if needed, tap Settings. If the problem continues, reset your mobile device according to your manufacture's documentation and try again."
Ive checked the connection settings lots of times, tried all RADIO versions.
Tried setting network band manually for GSM, PAP and CHAP authentication, enabled and disabled HSDPA without success.
The same SIM card works perfectly in another cell phone, but other SIM card (from other operator) didn't work either in my Kaiser.
Ive noticed, doing some internet search, that this problem used to happen in other HTC models, but I couldnt figure a way to solve the problem or what were its true origin.
Tnx in advance for your attention and help!

similar issue, now happened twice
I had this issue once before. After getting the run around, they determined that the radio was bad. I sent it in and they replaced it. Now a year later i am having the same issue. I have noticed that if i am traveling(driving), ocassionaly it will start to work again. I "think" that gprs works, but when it changes to "edge" it fails, or just works for a few hours....
Bye the way, I am using an unlocked phone on t-mobile.

Have you tried running removeHiddenProxy4CWS_1219.cab?
Look it up in the forum, then install it to Device.

I don't think that proxy setting is the main problem... I've tried running removeHiddenProxy4CWS_1219.cab but the problem still exist...

Hmmm
Does this message appear when emailing only?
Or does it appear also when browsing, say by using PIE?
Last week I had a problem where I couldn't email at all on my Tilt nut was able to browse.
I put my SIM card on my E51 and no problems at all.
I went back to my Tilt, tried everything I could think of w/o success, so I finally had to HR and reinstall (this was the 1st time even a restore from a previous good backup didn't help).

oppps - duplicate...

Running CyanogenMod-4.2.4 need to activate over wifi

I have successfully flashed my phone with the CyanogenMod-4.2.4 rom, enabled WIFI and can browse the internet.
BUT, when I try to activate my Gmail through the activation wizard with WIFI enabled I get the following error message: “Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server.”
I am using a T-Mobile pre-paid account, which means I don't have a data plan, so activation over WIFI is my only option.
Any suggestions on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated.

strange it should work maybe your connection is the prob? Try flashing the rom again.

Frustrating is more like it. I have spent days search this forum and the web for an answer.
I started out with CyanogenMod-4.2.3 installed and I thought that might have been the problem so last night I flashed 4.2.4 and still have the same problem.
I can browse the internet so I have a hard time believing it is a connection problem. I did come across a post earlier this week where someone was having issues with his WPA2 connection. Later today I will change the connection type and see if that fixes the problem.
If you can think of anything else I might try that would be great.
Thanks for the quick reply.

I changed my WIFI settings to WEP and WPA but still got the same error. Any more suggestions would be great.

The problem is probably due to gapps failing
keep trying and maybe it will go through

I finally got it to work and for those who may run across this thread with the same issue here what I did:
I ran across a thread on a different forum that stated the reason I was having the problem was because I skipped the initial activation process when the phone was first turned on. Well with CM4.2.4 and other rooted roms there is an option to skip the initial activation process, which I did.
So I went back and reread the other threads about how to activate your phone over wifi and they all state the same thing, you will need root access, which allows you access to execute debug commands from your PC to control your phone.
So I did a hard reset and re-flashed CM4.2.4. Then after I rebooted my phone I followed the instruction on this thread http://modmygphone.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9471 to turn on the wifi. Once the wifi was on I disconnected my phone from my computer and proceeded to activate it, which worked like a charm.
