You need to go into the Garmin settings and change your gps device settings to Com 4 and the braud rate to 4600. You can test the braud rate to see what works best for you.

Garmin Mobile XT

I'm having an odd problem when running this software ..
After a power up the software runs perfectly connects to the internal GPS and everything is good. If I then close the app and restart it it NEVER finds the GPS device and it just sits there scanning for the GPS device, even if I turn the GPS of and on again it doesn't fix it..
Power Cycling the phone then fixes this problem and I'm back at square one
anyone else add this/sorted this
Jez
can you tell me the installer you used ... (Name of the installer)...
try going to Setting--> Remote GPS--->and DISABLE GPS
Then Enable again ... it will ask you the GPS Port ... Select Com4...
then it should find GPS
Hi there,
I brought the XT from Garmin so I got the MicroSD card with the software and installer on it..
""Try going to Setting--> Remote GPS--->and DISABLE GPS""
on my TyTN II I have Settings/System/External GPS
there is no option in this app to disable/enable the GPS device ..
sorry ... what i meant was.... go to
Garmin Mobile XT---> Settings---> Remote GPS ---> Disable GPS

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.

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.

GPS Setup

hey guys,
Ne one knows how to make Garmin XT see the onboard GPS hardware???
Cheers
If I'm not wrong Garmin has an automatic search for GPS hardware function. That failing, just go to the settings in Garmin and indicate GPS is on COM4.
And just one question about the GPS : we must let 4800 bds or we can change the speed ?? In that case what is the best speed ??
Thank you !

Samsung Omnia Pro B-7330 no GPS TomTom

Hello I have a problem with the configuration of the GPS receiver into your TomTom. Operates in AutoMapa COM3, 9600-work and catch the fix quickly and very well even in a building made of concrete.
TomTom settings is not under any other NMEA GPS receiver. Once you have selected is not built-in GPS devices - sometimes displays a red string, it must reset the device-but it does not help.
Do you know how to solve the problem?

You are right but however Sygic Mobile Maps 10 (version 8.14) is working on my B7330 Omnia Pro.... Try it yourself.
Fixed my B7330 and TomTom by installing the latest GPSMOD 3.2 tool. Just had to install, pick correct com port on TomTom 7. Now it is working great.
hello eriksm,
I have a samsung b7330.
Can you explain how you made?
Where to find GPSMOD?
Thanks
Hi
Can you post the TomTom exact version you installed ? Because I tested different version of TomTom 7 (.915.9196, .918.9193) and I can not correctly navigate up/down in some parameters screen: for example I can not select GpsModDriver in the GPS selection screen. Is there another way to navigate ?
Thanks.

[HELP] Garmin software doesn't detect GPS receiver?

FIRST POST!
Hello xda-developers!
I have got a problem with the Garmin software for my Omnia 2
I've installed everything correctly, the software, maps, etc. (as far as I know)
But as soon as I want to connect to a GPS device it keeps scanning for a receiver.
I thought Omnia2 has a GPS receiver installed in their system?
If so, is there anyone that could help me out?
Greetings

Well, where can you find information for this?
I've seen
GPS-Programport: COM7
GPS-Hardwareport: COM9
Baudrate: 4800 (default)
But I haven't seen any option yet where I can choose which GPS (internal or external) device I want to use, when I click on the icon in the upper left corner of Garmin

HI
You need two app
GPS Gate and BeeLineGP to make it work
i had similar problem that you are encountering
after installing the two app and configuring it i finally fix it.
hope that helps

Have installed it. Now I can select what port etc. GPSgate says a GPS receiver has found on port 7 and ready for use..
So I open up Garmin, go to signal and it uses port 7 as GPSgate adviced.. Now waiting for a satalite signal.. But it takes ages! I'm standing outside, clear sky and everything.. I'm I still doing something wrong?

Hi VleNiK
Fellow these instruction!!!!!!!!!!!
I am assuming that you installed GPS Gate 2.6
In your phone go to Start and find GSP Gate
Click on the app and hit settings.
next in the input select setting
next step is to configure port
serial port is com7
Baud Rate is 57600
press OK once your done
Now back to Input menu
click Open
It will tell you that the GPS is OK but no position.
This is fine so leave the application.
Next is is Beeline GPS app
I am assuming that you installed the BEELINEGPS app version 1.90 or 2.0( 2.0 is a beta but it works really well) the trial version is 30 days for both version.
open the app than go out side get a clear view of the sky
wait for few minutes and it should be OK. the way to tell if it is working
is when the latitude and longitude has numbers.
close the app by passing the x button at the top once it is working
open Garmin and everything should be fine.
note: if you completely turn off the phone then you have to do the steps again. so i suggest you put the phone on stand by.
Hope that helps

since i made these changes,gps works fine for my tt7.
it's the same issue with the gps sensor, so maybe it will work for the garmin software too.
at first: you DO NOT have to install any other software except an regedit if it isn't already installed.
-open the regedit and got to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver\Drivers\Samsung GPS Hardware\InputBufferSize:
change value from 4096 to 512
-then go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver\Drivers\Samsung GPS Hardware\OutputBufferSize:
also change the value from 4096 to 512
-next step is:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver\Drivers\Samsung GPS Hardware\SleepOnNoData:
change value from 100 to 0
-last step
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver\Multiplexer\MaxBufferSize:
change value from 16384 to 1024
now save these settings and close the regedit.
got to yor gps settings and set:
programport: 4
hardwareport: 9
baud 4800
softreset your device.
that's it,i hope it'll help you...

thanks JOE ! It finaly works! BUT.. If I've got a signal and close Garmin, and put it back on lateron.. Do I have to search for a new signal again in an open sky? Because it realy takes a while..
I never had to use BEELINEGPS or GPS gate to get Garmin work on my Omnia i8000...
Just installed the software along with Voice support file and Base Map.. and then I copied India map.. Thats it.. Went to an open place and launched Garmin.. Waited for about 2mins and got a GPS signal...
Below are my GPS settings..
GPS-Programport: COM7
GPS-Hardwareport: COM9
Baudrate: 9600
Hope this helps...

Hi,
thanks for your reply! Well I tried it that way from the beginning.. But for some reason my Garmin Software only detected Garmin Bluetooth devices.. So not my internal one. And BeeLineGPS & GPSGate helped me with it. Now I have to boot those programs before using Garmin Mobile, shame but it works!
Gps
thanks JOE ! It finaly works! BUT.. If I've got a signal and close Garmin, and put it back on lateron.. Do I have to search for a new signal again in an open sky? Because it realy takes a while..
Yes you do have to re-open gps gate and Beeline GPS in a open sky place. I am trying to find a better solution to this problem. Using the GPS in Omnia ii is very tedious. I live in Canada and Garmin mobile xt just does not work once i open it. maybe in India but not in Canada i think. Aafi-rocks.
Also I tried lewellyen method everything works out great at the first time but when i open the garmin xt second time it freezes. It would not work at all. entail i had to go back to the old configuration.
My method is all i know so far but if any body have a better solution please share
Joe
There is another bunch of settings in nogarderGPS.exe accessible by typing *#1472365# on your dialer. On the menu select Settings | GPS
For Operation Mode select STANDALONE
For Start Mode select HOT START
For Session Type select NAVIGATION
See if this helps you. I use the GPS with google maps and it works just fine in Canada. I went to the Cook Islands, changed my SIM card and the GPS got a lock in 2 minutes - of course google maps didn't work because I didn't have any internet access.
try this
I) Go to General Settings - GPS
1) GPS program port : COM 7
2) GPS hardware port : COM 9
3) Baud Rate : 9600
4) Enable Manage GPS automatically
5) Make sure to download the XTRA data every week or so while connecting to internet trough Active Sync
II) Under Garmin XT - Click signal bar ( top left icon )
1) MAKE SURE its COM7 : COM7
2) IF NOT then click disable button
3) Click Use serial GPS - set it to COM 7
4) Then Enable it back.
