Need Help With My Location under Weather!! - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development

I flashed my HTC TP2 with Energy "leo" ROM 23518/21889 Jan 20, everything works fine except for the My location under Weather Tab: The my location always shows "Texas" instead of my city!! I tried turning 3g(T-Mobile USA) off and turn on WIFI, then my location changes to Cinco Ranch(which I'm living in), but it'll change back to "Texas" after I turned 3g on again..
It's so weird, I tried both 23518 & 21889 and they're all the same, I really love this ROM but hope someone can help me to solve this problem...
Thanks!

It'll get locked soon anyway, but this should be in the energy rom thread.

energy thread have more than 700 pages.. I really need help! it's so annoying... Any help would be appreciated!

What radio are you using?

Have the Mods all died? Is their internet access somehow being blocked? How are these ridiculous posts not being locked?
Dude, you need to post in the thread where the ROM came from. Too bad if there are a bunch of posts in it. That is a popular ROM so it sees a lot of action. READ, READ, READ, and SEARCH. See my sig.

Telenav problem..

Just wondering if anyone is having the same problem with telenav, or if there is a fix to it. Ive looked around the forum with search and cant seem to find anything but telenav not being compatible with custom roms.
Im using Dutty's latest rom with my Tilt and i recently just added telenav to my phone, when i bring it up, it connects fine and gets to the screen where you select "drive to" and "maps". When i try to determine my own location to record it, i hit go and it basically brings up the connecting box where it goes from 0 to 100% but it doesnt move at all for me after a few mins anywhere i go..also i cant do any routes for the same reason..it seems like its just not making a good connection when im outside. I checked my connection settings, proxy is not on..set up for medianet on both connections as i read from another persons suggestion, but still no go..
assisted gps is also turned off..i can do quik gps and everything else just fine but it hangs when trying to download the route...ive re-installed the program also but no go still.
anyone have any ideas to what might be causing this?
if this problem has been resolved, ive looked and looked in the forums but maybe my eyes are blind lol.
thanks for any help.
I'm running Dutty's latest 6.1 dated April 9 and Telenav and have no issue. Runs flawless.
ok
What are your connections settings, are you on medianet?

Yes I am on medianet. Proxy is disabled.
gprs setting
is your gprs setting set to chap authentication, i havnt touched this but mines set to chap, but this is auto configured when setting up the network with att?
still not working..
Yah my telenav is still hanging up at getting gps when trying to find route and my location...installed gpsgate and changed the radio to 1.58.16.27 not sure what else to try..
Can't remember, but do you download telenav through Pocket IE after you flash the custom rom?
I can't remember if it auto-decides what download you get based on your PIE useragent, or if you select the product for downloading... but if it's based on UserAgent you may run into issues...
Cellular video, for example, does not work if the UserAgent is not the Tilt
yah
i downloaded the cab through a txt message i received from att. i selected att and then my phone and it auto installed from there.
only thing i havnt tried is changing my rom but i dont see how that would help..im using dutty's apr 1st release.

First, did you Hard reset after rom flash at the "Tap here to alighn" screen? Second, did you install Telenav prior to any cooked rom flash? The reason I ask this if you got the file from AT$T while you were using a stock rom then that is fine, but if you got while you were using a cooked rom, it is probably a bad file. The reason is that most cooked roms have the PIE User agent set to TYTN II not HTC-8900 (AT$T Tilt) which could cause a corrupt download if you indeed have a Tilt. I suggest uninstall, power down, power back up and try the file I attached. I have installed it with every rom I have tried, literally dozens and never had an issue. When I say power down, power back up, dont do a soft reset. Use the power button.
yah i always do the hard reset after flashing. i dl'd it with dutty's apr 1st rom..i selected the file based off carrier and phone model. I will try your cab after work..im hoping it will fix it haha thanks man. Once i get home i will let you know how it went

well for some reason still it seems to be taking its time when looking for a route somewhere..it gets to 10% after 2 mins and 30% after 6 mins..it was working fast as hell yesterday and i dont think it should be taking that long right?
i started up gpsgate b4 i ran telenav, its saying it has gps data coming in but no position..
im clueless..lol

Just a question but do you have assisted Gps enabled? If so, disable it. If that doesnt fix it, maybe try GPSTest?

*Hopeless* GPS after 6.1 Update?

I know this has been touched on before, but I want to know if this is a widespread thing or what - since the official 6.1 update, my GPS has been really poor, particularly on a cold start. In fact, every time I use it feels like a cold start these days, even though Quick GPS is downloading data regularly and always shows 6+ days.
Every GPS app is the same - Tom Tom, GPS Test, Google Maps, Live Search - I can be waiting up to 10, 15, 20 minutes for a fix. The only time it's quicker is if I've used the GPS recently, and even that is a bit of a black art.
I like running the official ROM and I'm happy with the update in every other way, but the GPS problem is driving me up the wall - am I the only one? Is anyone running the proper ROM and not finding their GPS impaired?
The weird thing is, I can watch GPS test picking up two, three, four satellites but it just won't lock...
This is with the WWE 3.28 ROM with the 3.28 SPL loaded (fixing the freezes under Hard SPL v1)... what's going on?

Usually, I've found the GPS lock time is Radio Based. Maybe try a different Radio.

The only thing that is going to get me off the DEATH V3.5 ROM is a newer Rom by this same person.
The GPS is the best that I have ever had...
The phone signal is the best that I have ever had...
The GPS lock is about 30 seconds after TomTom starts...
The battery life is phenomenal - (it takes about 24 hours for the phone meter to register correctly) but I had 79 percent battery life left after using the phone all day yesterday at 11 pm last night (unplugged it at 6 AM).
Obviously - your carrier, your radio and ROM and where you are in the world can affect your signal greatly - but at this point - for me - the DEATH V3.5 ROM and radio rock and will stay on this phone as I LOVE having no phone issues.
HTH

Ok, maybe I've not been clear here - I'm not wanting to swap ROM stories or compare radios, I'm asking if anyone else is experiencing severe GPS problems with the stock ROM, and stock radio.
Anyone?
This isn't "which ROM/radio is best for GPS", it's "did the HTC ROM break your GPS?"
I have never looked at the official HTC ROM for comparison but I had the same thing after updating to certain ROM (non-official) the only way around it I found (other than replacing the phone) is another radio. Its not a problem with the ROM at all my good man just replace the radio and you should see a quicker lock time
I use radio 1.64.08.21 ang get a lock after approx 10-15 secs
Well If you are going to be snippy about it. Never mind. Forget I tried to help.
Though You may be hard pressed to find someone who is using the Stock ROM, I believe most people are wooed by the magic of Leo26, ConfusedStu, dutty, and the other Chefs out there.
So you wouldn't say that quoting my post back to me as "...snip snippity snip snip..." was being "snippy" in the first place?
I'm not trying to pick a fight here, I'm just interested in whether this is a common problem or not. I know GPS performance varies between radios, but with this new ROM & radio the difference is pretty shocking, and given that HTC are expecting the whole world to have installed it, I was surprised nobody else seemed to have noticed. You're probably right, nobody here kept it for long enough to find out apart from me, but I like my phone to be "stock". I guess this is my reward.
The answer probably is to try another radio, but it's a funny old situation.

I'm using the new (WM6.1) stock ROM from HTC on my Tytn-II and haven't had any issues with GPS lock. I would say less than 30 seconds assumming it has a clear view of a good percentage of the sky. Fix time is the same whether I use TomTom, GPS Tuner, or the HTC-GPS Tool.
Ofcourse if I try and start-up GPS while indoors or in an area where buildings block more than 50% of the sky then the fix time can be much longer.

I had the same problem after loading the 3.28 Hard-SPL. Reverted back to stock SPL and GPS is lightening fast.
Are you using the stock 3.28 SPL or the new 3.28 Hard-SPL?
Did you run Kaiser Tweak? if you did I would Hard Reset and try GPS test.
Got exactly the same problemwith the htc stock 6.1 rom. Nothin to do with hard spl etc as neve used it - phone has always been htc branded.
it appears that although quick gps data is downloaded, it is not used hence taking a long time as it needs to download the almanac data frim the satelites instead of quickgps. Ive emailed htc, but i have NEVER had a reply to any questions ive a ked in the past.

I'm on the stock SPL - my phone is Vodafone branded so I was originally using Hard SPL (with which I flashed the original stock HTC Rom) and then flashed the HTC 3.28 SPL after I found I had freezing issues with the 6.1 update. Haven't touched the new Hard 3.28, but from what you say it's obviously not going to help. I did wonder if the mystery fix in the 3.29 SPL might have something to do with the GPS, but if it's working fine for you on 3.28 who knows.

That's how it looks to me too - looking at the signal levels in GPS Test etc, it's not obviously a problem with the radio performance itself, which makes me doubt that changing the radio will actually help (while it will no doubt screw something else up).
I was just browsing through an interesting thread here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=292178 - on how Quick GPS works (or didn't work for a while) on the Artemis. There's some interesting stuff there about how all this is supposed to work.
I'm really suspecting that Quick GPS is broken in some way in the latest ROM. If it were working, then the phone should always have the almanac data and this should be visible in the settings screens in Tom Tom and other gps progs as satellites it's expecting to be there, but for me - unless I've had a very recent lock - it's always blank. In other words, the data isn't there, regardless of what Quick GPS is saying.
And a good question would be - where should the data be? Quick GPS itself is stored in the \windows folder, but there's no sign of the "packedephemeris.ee" file mentioned in the Artemis thread. Does anyone know where we should be able to find it on the Kaiser?
Another question is what server(s) should Quick GPS be downloading from - in my non-functioning Quick GPS, the settings in the registry are as follows:
HKLM\\SOFTWARE\HTC\QuickGPS\0\0\IP > xtra1.gpsonextra.net
HKLM\\SOFTWARE\HTC\QuickGPS\0\1\IP > xtra2.gpsonextra.net
HKLM\\SOFTWARE\HTC\QuickGPS\1\0\IP > xtra3.gpsonextra.net
HKLM\\SOFTWARE\HTC\QuickGPS\1\1\IP > xtra1.gpsonextra.net
HKLM\\SOFTWARE\HTC\QuickGPS\2\0\IP > xtra2.gpsonextra.net
HKLM\\SOFTWARE\HTC\QuickGPS\2\1\IP > xtra3.gpsonextra.net
The three servers (xtra1, xtra2, etc) are also listed under HKLM\\SOFTWARE\HTC\QuickGPS\SNTP as Server 1, Server 2, Server 3 - does anyone see anything different on there working model?
Im having the same problem,
Running Dutty's 6.1 Dual rom. Once the ROM had installed I noticed that QuickGPS didn't work straight off the bat. I suffered long GPS lock wait times. I found a QuickGPS cab file which fixed QuickGPS but my lock times don't seem to have improved. Via GPSTest I get 3-4 within sight straight away, but they sit on red for ages perhaps a few more satellites with appear but again they'll all sit on red. until about 15 mins passes, then finally a fix.
Im sure my GPS responded quicker than that in previous ROM's. at the moment its not really effecting me and im really not going to go through another ROM change again to test.
Im already on radio 1.64.08.21 which is supposed to be the best out there. tut.
no idea about hard spl and all that business, not really sure what y'going on about.
Would also like to find a fix for this, as i've tried a few different methods of fixing with no luck.
So it's not the radio, which ties in with my hunch that this is more to do with Quick GPS. But my Quick GPS registry settings match those I've found elsewhere, and I've found the data - it's an "xtra.bin" file in the Windows folder, which also matches reports from working installs. And I'm having no problem with the whole downloading process, that's happening in the background (through Activesync) just as it always was.
So is there something in the actual Rom (and presumably the base rom used by Dutty) which isn't picking up that data when utlising GPS?
Well I think I read a few posts on Dutty's Dual ROM thread about QuickGPS not working straight off, but its a long thread to plow through to find out. S its entirely possible there's a good reason.
Hmmm
well I proved to myself im not inherently lazy I did a bit of searching around and found this little gem of a thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=375172
it suggested that QuickGPS has a region setting in the registry
low and behold I checked my
HKLM\Software\HTC\QuickGPS\region
and it was set to US,
I changed this to say UK, I've not tested this but I think this might make a difference. I'll let you know whenI get the chance to play around on the way home from work. I usually try and get a fix on the 15 minute walk to my bus and dont get any fix at all, If all goes fine I'll be watching myself in Igo8 on the way home. Sad.
Hmm, fingers crossed for you, I just checked and mine it's showing "GB" though. So maybe your's should be GB (although that's not working too well for me) or maybe mine's wrong, and should be UK?
well I just popped outside for a quick test and Corblimey guvenor if Im not getting a fix in about 20 seconds.
Which is excellent to say the least since i was sat under a canopy of trees at the time and its grim as normal up't'north.
Id switch yours to UK, I didnt really think to try GB, but If its not working for you right now, I'd suggest trying UK.
I changed it to UK, soft reset, tried Tom Tom, no change. I then checked the registry and it had switched back to GB, so I changed it again, closed and reopened Quick GPS and redownloaded, back to Tom Tom again and.. no change. I don't think it's going to do it for me, maybe we have two different problems here..

GSM not working but 3G works

Hey. Today is not my day
My phone wont work with GSM anymore, it works well with 3G but when it tries to connect to a GSM network it just dies :/ i have no clue what it could be. It was working well yesterday, i have tried to do a hard reset but still wont work. any ideas? Thanks.
Sorry for bad english!
by the way, there is a strange sound in the speaker when it tries to connect to a GSM network.
and it doesnt die if i have it on charge.
has you have set the telefonsettings to gsm network or to automatic?
My phone also needs the manual setting to GSM.

On automatic it sets on 3G becurse i got 3G here, and if it losts the 3G connection and tries to connect to GSM it dies. ( thats how i found out about this problem on the way too school this morning. )
in my network i observe problems with connects to GSM: Sometime i lost the GSM connection/signal, where my Wizard has a safty connection.
It can be a standard Problem with the current Radio ROM
I think about change the radio ROM. pse look to Diamond ROM development to find a instruktion. the ".25.05" should be the best Radio Rom with a better energy performence and better Signals. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407956
BUT i have not change in this time, while i test my Battery performance after a reducing of background software/applications.

die completly = shut down/swith of the Diamond?
This i not have obervate.
If you follow the instructions, the Radio update is out of problems. If you will get the old radio version, so you can get it back with the original provider update of ROM.
for german Vodafone there is a download by vodafone.de under "technischer Support". i think the most providers has a update download. Look to your provider, if there be a ROM update.

before you look for a new Radio, make a reset or a hard reset. My be, that it "repair" your problem.
By my WIZARD i has update the Radio.
I think, that the radio ROMs for the Diamond are also standards (how by the WIZARD) without differences.

Thanks alot!
OK, i hope you get a better Signal after changing the Radio version.
so as i have read, is version 05 the optimal version with stable signal and lower battery consumption.
pse read self the linked threads to find your optimal Radio ROM.

Email and sound problem on Diamond

Hi everyone
my first post, I have a problem with my Diamond on Orange.
My data connection seems to lock out if I have been in an area of low coverage this results in not being able to connect to my Gmail account using the email function of the phone.
I have downloaded and installed the wm 6.1 patch for fixing corrupt email account. The workaround now though is when it still locks me out of using my data connection I have to reboot the phone.
I have also installed the official new rom from the Orange site, can't access the HTC site ROMs as my device serial code is linked to Orange
It's very frustrating having to reboot your phone 6 times a day (my office is in a low coverage area)
also since last week the phone makes no sound for SMS, MMS, calendar reminders etc. I have checked the sounds associated with these events and they play ok when you click to test them but not when an SMS etc arrives
please help, I'm locked in to this phone till next Aug
Thanks in advance
Steve
Try this...
Rather than rebooting your device, have you tried going to the settings tab on TF3D, selecting communications and tap the 'Data Connection' setting? I'm not sure about the stock Orange ROM, it may not have the option to switch the data connection on and off. If it hasn't, try turning Airplane mode on then off again. Your connection should then be re-established.
As for your sound issue... make sure you have the check box selected for 'Events'. Go to Settings / Personal / Sounds & Notifications and check the top most box
Thanks for the info Graham.
I can confirm that the box 'Events (warnings, system events)' is checked but still no sounds on sms, calendar event etc
not sure where I find the settings tab on TF3D but can try the airplane mode tomorrow at work were I have the low coverage issue.
Thanks for taking the time to give the advice.
Is there a new rom out there I could install as a permanent fix for the data issue?
Thanks
Steve
Mmmm...
Not sure whether a ROM change will cure your problems. It may just be related to your carrier (Orange). I've tried numerous ROM's and radios, but never had an issue with the data. You could try flashing a different radio. Do you know what version your device is running now?
If you look here, you'll find all the various radios available. I'd definitely start with a radio change before flashing ROM's if you're happy with your Orange ROM that is
Hi
The Radio is 1.00.25.05, (ROM is 1.93.405.1 WWE)
are these any good ones or should I update to a new Radio
Thanks again
Steve
Mmmm...
That's what I thought... both the ROM and Radio version are very old (by XDA standards!). I would certainly upgrade your radio, if not the ROM as well. Make sure you upgrade the HardSPL first though or you'll end up with a nice paper weight!
Follow this tutorial to the letter and you'll be fine. That's all I did. Most of the custom ROM's here don't include a Radio, so you'll need to upgrade that seperately. It's all in the guide. If you've already upgraded the SPL, you can go ahead and flash a ROM / Radio.
The ROM I'm using is Gen.Y D2 R4.2 which you'll find in the ROM section along with a host of others. In my opinion, it's the best by far
Thanks Graham will read all the info and give it a go

Hi
Managed to get radio 1.13.25.24 on but can't find a live link for ROM Y D2 R4.2
any chance you could post one for me
Many thanks for all the help up to now, I'm realy looking forward to my Diamond working like it should
Thanks
Steve
Link...
Hi. The download links are halfway down Post #2 of the ROM thread... CLICK HERE
Hi
Thanks for all your help. I am now running on radio 1.13.25.24 and ROM Y D2 R4.2
Early days but there is defiantly some improvement in data connection/reception but I am still getting the issue where the data connection corrupts and won't connect even when full network coverage is restored.
Thanks for the workaround suggestion re turning airplane mode on then off this does work and negates having to re-boot.
Is there any way I can overcome the basic issue re the data connection corrupting in low coverage areas?
Is a radio available that will up the coverage even more, battery life is not important to me?
Thanks again
Steve
Tip...
Another way, which may be quicker. On the settings tab in TF3D, tap connections and you should have a 'Data Connection' option. If you switch this off to disconnect your GSM data connection, the next time your device needs to connect it will re-establish the connection. This doesn't help with your issue, but it is quicker than turning Airplane mode on and off.
It might be worth posting in the Radio thread to see if anyone has experienced this on Orange and found a workaround. Like I said, I've not experienced data issues like this, so I can't really help. You've changed your ROM and your Radio, so it seems it's not ROM or Radio specific... it does seem to point to carrier??
Hi Graham
I’ve spent some time getting used to the new ROM, it seems to be a big improvement over the standard Orange one and I do occasionally get a data connection in my office which is unusual. I think what I really need is some sort of signal booster stuck to the window.
One thing I notice with the new ROM is a lack of a calculator; can I add this on in some way?
Thanks
Steve

[Q] sense 2.5 from Garmin Asus M10

Hay guys
I recently bought a Garmin Asus M10
very nice, but ....
I like the interface from HTC hd2, sense 2.5 and I want to install it on my phone.
problems now appear in many. cabs installed to found only 2 that are functional,
1. is bigboss_Manila_2.5_2015_full - is in full screen, but locked wifi and warms your hard freezes and does not start only with restart.
2. Sense HTC WM6.5 2.1 Support - which moves well without wifi, of course, but it is not good rezoltia has an empty portion
Now comes the question .....?? someone help me and me to solve these problems.
attach a picture of HTC WM6.5 Sense 2.1 Support
So, I managed to install the phone in 2016 manila 2.5, no more heat, moving well, but returned to the wifi problem, went after installation, but the first stop of the phone, I changed the SIM card and no longer works, Why? I walked and the registry but still no effect,
Instead you have to go?
sorry for my English but I do not pre workout.
I need help, please ....
So, I resolved, go WiFi, after I changed the rom, and let go and Bluetooth
I have a working phone.
a good day for everyone ....

Hey Dasim i also own a Garmin Asus M10 and just like you have tried the manila cabs on it but the phone freezes. Can you please tell me where you got your sense cab, which version and how did you fix the wifi, heating etc problems... Please?
good to start at the beginning, what version of rum?
I put the official version on the official site M10_V6260_WWE_app_IND00,
the latest version or M10_V6220_WWE_app_SGP01
all good
If you fail to change the rom, say, and you send a mail pack that lets you install the ROM or some kind of rewards.
sense I used manila cab 2016 2.5
http://www.modaco.com/content/i8000...-modaco-com/311622/cab-manila-sense-2-5-2016/
here's cab that I use, instructions, and all you need
you need a cab file which made me change the registry for wifi, send mail to [email protected] for wifi cab
1. rom change - restart
2. cab installation - all programs that you have extra-restart
3. 2.5 Installation sense, - restart
4. Monster wifi and wifi installation cab - restart
and theoretically it should work now.
I tried both versions of rum, I think the best is from StarHub - M10_V6220_WWE_app_SGP01
I have attached the files you need
manila modaco takes off there and instruction .
a good day
As for the phone warming, it's normal.
uses more energy because the screen is big
- GPS stays open, must be closed manually
to me to use intense:
- 1 hour talk,
- 45-50 minutes wifi
- 2 hour music on the radio in the car coupled
battery reaches 35-37%
I believe a decent range for this phone.
cant make wifi work =(
hi dasim! i think i missed something because i cant make my wifi work. i did install the patch and wifi monster. any help is appreciated. im having fun with sense except for the wifi part, and yes things are a bit slow, but worth the try. thanks in advance! im happy it worked on your phone! any other problems with it?
I have stated above the rom used is important because it is the only solution one attempt I made, and for 3 weeks and I kept changing rom manila sense, in different combinations.
We've not stopped the phone for 5 days if you stop or finish the battery, no wifi goes, I do not know why. The installation process should be resumed manila sense to go wifi.
I say install M10_V6260_WWE_app_IND00 rum, the other programs,
manila sense in 2016 as the instructions in modaco,
Monster install WiFi, Packet with asus wifi, restart and it should work.
[email protected] send mail and you have steps that follow and see where it is not good, it's easier for me because I use the XDA phone and can not really write well strengths.
good day
dasim...
mind you tell me where you got others version
of rom you've tried?
I'm M10 owner as well....
not enough guts to try other roms before..
but lately my phone act weird...
so maybe you can help me...
TQ
