Australia d810 how do i get TomTom working

Hi I have a dopod D810 i would like to know how you get the gps working on this model, can someone please help me
I did upgrade rom to 1.23.707.6 and install a TomTom program but it still looks for gps device
does the D810 have a device built in
has anyone done this Thanks
cheers

tomtom works on my aussie D810 with the same rom...
I set the GPS reciever to other NMEA GPS reciever.
coldstart it can take a minute or more to find the signal.
try standing outside in a area with a good wide view of the sky, or even driving round.

Depending on the version of/locked files (Search forum) TOMTOM, you might need to configure it each time.
In 6.02 and below you need to select the NEMA (or whatever its called).
In 6.03 they have a selection of inbuilt GPS device. I Found 6.03 much less hassle to be honest.

how do i get 6.03 please
how do i get 6.03 please

to get tomtom 6.03 update go to the following site and follow their instructions...
http://www.tomtom.com/support/solution.php?GID=3&PID=1401&SID=0&CID=215&Language=1&FID=6736
NOTE: you will need reactivation of your maps after this upgrade to 6.03

Are you outside with clear view to the sky? Wait 15 Minutes there! It WILL work.

You're on the right track with GPS on COM9 if you are not using version 6.03. If you get as far as "No valid GPS signal" message then that means your GPS receiver is tracking satellites ok and you're just not getting a GPS fix. I had the exact same problem as you.
1) Just restart your d810 (stylus into the small hole on the underside of your dopod )
2) Start your TomTom and use the same setup as you did before with NMEA.
3) Select GPS on COM9
4) When you get the "No valid GPS signal" message stand outside where there is lots of open sky (if you're in the city... tough luck it would be really hard to get a GPS fix there).
5) Be prepared to wait for up to 15 minutes until you get a GPS fix. Mine took more than 10 minutes.

Got it working plus more
Thanks guys you have been a great help
i updated my tomtom software it was easy
as advised i went to here
http://www.tomtom.com/plus/service.php?ID=17
installed home software
then went to this site and followed its instructions
http://www.tomtom.com/support/index.php?FID=6736&Lid=1
and installed tomtom home plus on my computer
tomtom home is excellent for anyone that does not have it, its free and a must have.
tomtom home then updated all my software and gave me free some cool new stuff.
after this did as you said went outside three minutes it was up
thanks i hope this helps others
now if i can only try to see if i can modify my 838 to do this aswell
i know the 838's don't have gps connected inside unit but has anyone opened one up and connected it.
I currently have 4 brand new dopod 810s and 4 dopod 838's i will have to sell some as we just got given them and some people oready had them before we got given them.

they were given to you? wow! give them away too. throw one my way

Changing GPS
Can you change the GPS type once you have already installed it and it is running?

Are any of you guys with optus? I really want to wait for the official GPS rom from dopod but i dunno what these guys are doing, there has been all these claims of new roms coming out but no substance.
Which rom updates are you using? Any problems with the aussie networks?

Viperx,
Im using this rom. its the offical rom, but it hasnt been released on the dopod asia site for autralian customers as yet. I think I downloaded it from this forum ftp, cant recall now. works great with 3 so far, haven found any bugs. The only thing I fixed since the update was the bass (again that was found on this forum).
RUU_Trinity_DOPODASIA_WWE_1.23.707.6_6275_1.35.00.11_108_Ship.exe

i'm with optus
and i'm using the
RUU_Trinity_DOPODASIA_WWE_1.23.707.6_6275_1.35.00. 11_108_Ship.exe
ROM and it has been working fine

Where did you find the fix for the bass?

Yep i downloaded this already. i heard from some people that utms has really bad reception with this rom? also this is wm5 isn't it.
Also is this a straight install or does it need sspl/hard spl or things i don't understand?

qu. | GPS update rate problem

Hello,
Anyone about any problem with the internal GPS in the TILT ???
I found that the GPS update every 2 seconds (2 quick updates every 2 seconds).
I have holux GPS that update 1 time every 1 second.
So this is a problem with the internat GPS ???
thnx

Hi beonfocus,
I think this is not normal behaviour. I have an unbranded Kaiser (german version) and my GPS updates every 1 second. Are you sure it's the GPS receiver itself or is it maybe the software you checked with (only an idea...)? I checked my updating frequency with TomTom and GPS-Dash.
HansOlo

i check it
i checked it with 2 navigation softwares.
can you tell how to check it again ?
thnx

I only used the two mentioned programs and looked in the sattelite view how fast the signal updates.
There are other small programs like HTC GPS Tool, GPS Test or GPS Viewer which can be found in this forum.
I never tried them myself because I never had GPS problems until now, so I have no idea if they are useful.
If you have problems finding one of these PM me, I can send HTC GPS tool to you as I stored it on my hard disk.

The Kaisers in Asia come bundled with Mapking but I also have Garmin XT on mine. From my limited experience at least, Mapking is slow to update, while Garmin updates quite speedily.

GPS Software / Hardware

Garmin Mobile XT doesn't work on it :-( it can't find my GPS :-s
UPDATE 2008-06-14:
- Installed TomTom Navigator 6, works fine!
- I am wondering, will TomTom Navcore 8 work?

Since we can't use microSD card, I think only possibility is to use Garmin Bluetooth GPS.

tomtom

The diamond works fine with Garmin Mobile XT with internal GPS on com 4

There is no Navcore8 for PPC.

Navcore8 for PNDs is Linux only. Your best hope is TomTom 7 if ever it is released. There were rumours of it built in ROM from a German site , with a limited Map.

How did you install? I have XT on a microSD but can't copy to Internal Storage, it only gives me an evaluation option or external GPS.

download install file from http://www8.garmin.com/support/download_details.jsp?id=3389
then serach google on getting the internal gps to work

tomtom 6
i have tomtom 6 running on my diamond. Just copy the intire map to your diamond and then run the ttn.cab file. It will install itself on youre diamond. Then when it is installed go to gps settings and select OTHER NMEA GPS (or the one thats sounds like that) and then select com4. Should run like a charm.

tomtom6
i don't know if i can upload tomtom6 to the ftp site of XDA-developers? So that we all can enjoy tomtom.

Try google and take a look on the sites where you find tomtom... They got WAREZ written all over so i advise you not to upload it anywhere as it's illegal to do so.

Hi guys how do I go about setting the internal GPS to COM 4, all the methods I've tried keeps resetting when I press OK.
My Diamond would be a lot better if I had GPS working...

i have tomtom as wel.
to be honest i do not like it so much. it seems old and outdated. the letters are really small on the diamond and it takes a few minutes to get a lock.
i am waiting for route 66 v8. i had a good experience with v7 so i hope this is better than tomtom.
if tomtom would only release new versions.....

My TT - when in use, does not keep up with where I am located - it seems always to be lagging behind when i am approaching side streets . I have full signal too.

Nav4all can't find the GPS

I have installed Nav4all on my Diamond but it isn't picking up the gps. google maps and the trial version of co pilot both work great and are finding the sats. Any suggestions would be really helpful, I've been at this now for 4 days

Set to COM 4 Baud rate 4800

My GPS is already set to com4 and I can't find where I can set the baud rate other than for external devices
Thank you for your help so far

I still cant get nav4all picking up sats, does anyone have more clues for me? thanks

i think ur nav4all can not turn on the built in gps, so use htc gps tool to turn ur gps and then run ur nav4all (let HTC gps tool run in the background do not close it)
good luck

just to give you some tips:
port that should work is port 4 and the baud rate : 9600.
it will take like easy 7 minutes before it finds some satellites..
this is the a problem or an issue that is difficult to solve, but if you wana read more on this and how to enhance your GPS with different tools like , quick GPS, HTC GPS Tool ..etc. ..
check this |ink: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=360477
I have tried Tomtom and IGO , both of them are to slow in finding satellites...
let us know if this worked for you!
waiting for better solution..

I have Garmin XT on mine and I have a similar problem. I will be tracking fine, then it will say GPS OFF. and then it will come back on a few minutes later.
