Some cooks/chefs may have excluded this feature not sure, I would ask whomever made the rom you installed....mine has the quick gps in it...maybe they took it out or it's in another location then what your used to looking.

Search in Windows folder for QuickGPS.exe. Maybe is there but u have no shortcut in programs.

Did you install BlueGPS like thaihugo suggested? Once you install it, you could use either Windows Live or Google Maps (I like Live Maps latest over Google Maps, but thats me). If your question running on GPS on Vista, then also it is possible to use BlueGPS and you can see GPS once you activeSync it. I bought GPSGate for both the sides and I am using it.
--Ram--
on my rom, you can install any gps program and it will work. problem is storage for maps. This is why I recomment google maps or garmin mobile. In any caseM gps is com4.
To access it on vista, there is an how to in the age of reason thread.
You don't need gpsgate. The gpstoblue and the solution in my thread explain it all.
is it possible to use tomtom with maps on shared drive etc with vista running? or does it still crash??
thaihugo? saiweb?

June 14 09 gullum shift roms WM 6.1(new) & 6.5 with phone

New version of WM 6.1 uploaded June 14 09
I havn't had any real internet connection for months so I couldn't get eny new build's for some time.
I also am without work so I can't aford getting an proper internet connection so my updates wan't be often as the only internet I have most of the time is GPRS.
anyway here you have a WM 6.1 and WM 6.5 rom with phone working thanks to Cmonex
the WM6.5 is mostly just a test and mighty not be good for day to day usage yet because of the memory usage of WM6.5 only around 10 mb free ram.
I do think I can make some changes to the better so the 6.5 rom can become more useable because wm 6.5 is running nice and fast on shift and it's also the rom I will like to continu working on for my personal use
in the next week or 2 I'll gather as much info from you so when I get back here (Parents hous only place I can have good internet) in 2 weeks I'll hopefully have a better rom for you and all bugs might be ironed out

Bugs:
Bouth roms
no icon in taskbar for conection status eg. E or G
WM 6.1 only
WM 6.5 only
ActiveSync icon in Connection folder does nothing (Restarting you device should fix it reported by shaytaan)
Thanks a million.
Coiuld you tell us in your #1 posting if it's snapvue enabled, and which programs are installed on both versions ?
I'm going to install your WM6.5 first, and will send any bigs found in the 6.1 (as 6.5 is more or less just for play)

I'll update post 1 later tonight when my son has falen asleep
snapvue today plug is in the wm 6.1 if thats what you meen
wm 6.5 has a customiced titanium
The 6.5 ROM has no ActiveSYnc possibility. The icon fails to launch.
"the file MSSYNCAPP" cannot be opened, not trusted, or components not found..."
Flashing 6,1 now
Tip : Forget the SIM autoconfigure, it will save some space.
CDMA ROM needed
Any chance of making this work on the CDMA Shift ??? I am not sure why, but I am stuck in the bootloader despite a hard reset. The only rom that installs properly is the one that left me in this fix. Any CDMA folks out there, or someone with a GSM rom that knows what is needed to switch it to a CDMA compatible version ?
Just installed v6.5, and IT IS FANTASTIC
I like it very much, thanks alot gullum
<lucid> ActiveSYnc works, you have to restart your device
In the 6.1 ROM, the TASKS icon fails to launch, even after a soft reset,
thanks for the update on activesync on 6.5 version.
As I need GPS to be duplexed to to Vista, I recommend putting GPS2Blue in, but you have to ask the authors of that program, like ThaiHugo did.
For the WM 6.5 rom, the home screen font's is a little big. I tried setting it smaller via screen, text size but won't work.
All in all good to see your ROM's. Let's hope one of these days the secret comes out on SD access.
Does the ROM work with headset and mic to talk into or is it still speakerphone only..
Thanks
how come i cant build os of your rom?you deleted the packges files?
i cant seem to connect to the internet using snapvue but the phone function works. am i missing something?
Can someone host these on rapidshare? If they're hosted once, I'll host them on my account as well to get more links for them up. I'm unable to open mediafire.com from China. All the help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again.
Caid.

It works fine.

			
				
I installed 6.5 last night. It works fine for me!
Looks EXCELLENT Gullum!
If you have any internet troubles, check your ISP/WAP settings
My ATT added 2 sets of settings, one incorrect, one half correct (so both wrong, but an easy fix by changing the Username)
Some questions:
Is there a way to add to the "Quick Links" to edit the program list?
Also, Is the Network Folder via Connections available in ROM or should we add it manually? (The one in Age of Reason is simple to use)
Also, as far as hosting, I have a server with unlimited bandwidth (just limited storage of 60 GB) that I can host some files as a straight download if that helps in anyway, jus PM me and I can give you access to upload to it.

Google maps not working

I just flashed with energyz new rom the may 22 release, and i can't get google maps to work with gps, it previously worked when i was using the old rom but i remember i had to configure it manually, i set both google maps and my gps program settings for COM 4, but it still can't find satelites, i have quick gps downloaded and still nothing, it just says searching for satelites for the longest time.. i dont recall setting a baud rate previously and i don't know what it does, would that be the problem?? Any suggestions??
i've been waiting for like a month and i know atleast one of u have a working google maps gps on your phone.. wow this forum is sad sometimes..
Next time try posting it in the EnergyROM thread, don't recall someone with the same issue.
Did you try other GPS programs like HTC GPSTool, Chartcross GPSTest or Bing? And do they work?
I had no problems with EnergyROMs and GPS fixes in TomTom, GoogleMaps eg.
I mostly use the Co0kie, GTX or MaxSense 23569 EnergyROMs.
correct, rom specific problems belong into the respective rom thread and not into a new one
also you should keep in mind that other members help or don't in their own time and on their own free will and not when it fits your needs, so for the future pls keep your manners

[Q] some navigation software for my xperia x1 ?

please ,i need some help
try this link :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=463295
You should think about grabbing a copy of Copilot Live 8. Tried it, loved it. Have since transferred it to my Streak, but it works great on X1.
IGO8 8.3.4.xxx, no doubt! If you would like version already running on Xperia X1 p.m me. This version support voice alerts, live update, bluetooth support, 3D builds and up-to-date maps...
hi ferlareno, plz guide me to hav igo on my xperia x1i am using energy rom ...thanks in advance...
Second vote for IGO8. Works perfectly on my X1 and other WM with GPS.

Navigation software, open streetmap
Hi,
this may be my opportunity to contribute:
For I am a new user, I am not allowed to post links, sorry. Google will help you.
I was also looking for navigation software, especially for biking.
There is a internet routing service which uses open streetmanp maps. Which seems to be pretty good.
The domain is:
openrouteservice
You can switch the language to english.
While searching for a pocket application I stumbled upon
wiki.openstreetmap org wiki WinPDA
Here you find tons of software which you can try. Currently I am not able to recommend anything, cause I am still trying which suits me best.
Currently I am testing
monav
I think your choice will depend on your usage of the software, the memory of your phone and if or if not you have a internet flatrate (> google maps mobile).
I want to switch from google to a software, which uses maps stored on sd card to cut my cost.
Hope I could help,
Jens

qtek9090 gps navigation: best rom?

Hi all, first of all thanks for all the post I've been reading these days; I am new at this and I am learnig a lot about my Qtek.
I needed a small pda to test some gps-cartography software we use at work and I bought a used Qtek9090.
It has already been flashed, but I need to flash it again to expand the storage and then I want to install a new clean Windows Mobile ROM.
I will use it only as a gps navigator with a blutooth receiver (royaltek mbt1000), so I don't need anything for sms-mms-phone, games, players etc etc... just a text editor, excel and my navigation software.
What ROM should I install?
Thanx in advance!
I think a tiny win mobile 6.1 without manila is good
Just try D-Two's WM6.5.5 Multilang. I've got it on my SX66 and GoogleMaps really works fine.
(Of course- data transfer without UMTS really takes time )
