My SPV M700 Information:

Regards
Nick

try to configure gps in tomtom, like NMEA baudrate 9600 com port 9

Doesn't let me choose port 9, only
com3
GPS in com9
com7etc.
I choose com9 but any signal of gps.
Regards,
MM.

Ok.
Done.
Problem only with the signal that was to weak.
Great.

To Nick and mmelo
Did you only do the registry tweak to get GPS icon enabled and it started working???? or did you also flashed your ROM ? Because as far as I know, you do need to flash your ROM to get GPS working and the registry tweak is only to get the GPS icon. Correct me if I'm wrong.
I haven't flashed my ROM as waiting for genuine HTC ROM, but if only enableing GPS icon can get gps working then I might try that cause nt really want to flash with Dopod Rom.
Thanks.

I got it three days ago...
For Orange SPV M700, it doesn't need to do anything to have GPS, just install tomtom 6, and choose com9 GPS~~

So Orange SPV M700 (UK VERSION) has gps enabled ??? Ofcourse it would be better than the french version. Is this UK's gps enabled Orange ROM available anywhere? My HTC P3600 is unlocked and unbranded UK edition bought online.
Or any news of HTC ROM upgrade?
Thanks.

Working
Heya, I've got my GPS working it was just a matter of low signal.
These are the Settings i used:
1. Tweaked Reg to display GPS Icon.
GPS Program Port: COM1
GPS Hardware Port: COM9
Baud Rate: 4880
Manage GPS Automatically (Ticked)
Tomtom set to COM Port 9
Note that it can around about 15mins to recieve a GPS Signal and tomtom does try to say there is "no device found" while finding a singal but this is wrong. It is still trying to find a vaild singal it just takes awhile, but after setup once it connects quicker there after.
Thanks

But why does it take up to 15 min to get a valid signal?
It could take about 20 sec.. :\

I have mine set to:
Program port: GPD1
Hardwareport: COM9, 115200 Baud
Manage GPS automatially
Also in tomtom nav i got GPS setting of: NMEA GPS with 115200 baud.
And its connected to COM9 (not GPD1 as one could think, its not even an option). In the latest tomtom 6.030 custom for htc 3600 among others its possible to choose internal GPS device too.. i think i got that working if my mememory serves me right. But i downgraded coz I had some map-problems
I use RUU_Trinity_HTC_WWE_1.23.800.2_6275_1.35.00.11_Ship as ROM. Before I tried the dopod verision, i got it working there too.
Sometime I get the signal after 1-2 minutes, sometime I need an hour for it to lock on some sats , not really reliable, I hope the oficcial ROM remedies that. A friend of mine has a bluetooth GPS for his trinity. It takes him between 2-10 minutes to lock on to sats even with that.
A tip for those with tomtom's that lock up and freeze sometimes.
Press the PHONE button to get your dialing screen, from there use the startbutton to start tomtom again (it doesnt reload the program it just hands back the control to the current running tomtom), then you can use it again. It doesn't always work though, sometimes it's necessary to reset the phone.

Sorry people, I'm an absolute moron when it comes to programming etc - so none of this is English to me.
I've recently got the M700 and am aware of the GPS being encrypted. Also, being an Orange member of staff, you would think that I'd get some kind of help from our "technical team" when it comes to unlocking the damn thing - but alas, they "cannot do it".
So, here I am, asking for a little help in getting the GPS activated...Pleeeeease

Hi, i have flashed may HTC P3600 with TRIN_RADIO_1.38.00.11_Only_SSPL but it does not want any to know to go!
Mine puts into effect them situation is:
ROM : 1.15.408.2
Radio ROM 1.38.00.11
Version extrom 1.15.408.101
Versione Protocollo: 32.71.7020.12H
TOM TOM 6.030.
I have tried all but I just do not succeed to make to go it. While com the 9 do not appear to me just in tom tom, and then I asked myself if before the gps it had to be found from the bluetoth. I have tried also with gps tuner but it says to me gps not found.
I ASK AID!! PLEASE HELP ME.

Hello, I have done the following thing and everything without problems has worked me:
1º) Is necessary to install some of the ROM that has the activated GPS. In my case: RUU_Trinity_HTC_WWE_1 [1] .23.800.2_6275_ 1.35.00.11 _Shi p.exe.
2º) Later, I have updated the Radio with TRIN_RADIO_ 1.38.00.11 _Only_SSPL (this step is not essential).
3º) After it, I have installed drivers of the GPS for ROM Lvsw (HTC_GPSdriver.cab).
4º) I am modifying key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ ControlPanel \ GPS Settings to activate the icon of the GPS, so that it appears in Settings / connections, in that I have put: GPS prog port: GPD1; GPS hardware port: COM9; Baud rate: 115200.
5º) I have installed the TomTom, version 6.030.8320, and in the Gps configuration: GPS type: Other nmea GPS; Baud rate: 115200; GPS in COM9.
The first time has taken about 4 minutes in taking satétiletes.
Second and the later ones, in about 15 seconds…
I hope that this helps somebody… GREETINGS (excuses by my English incorrect one, but the fault has the translator of google... )

hello, I take or but of two weeks with the ROM of Lvsw with the activated GPS, to people it gave problems him of blockades with tomtom, I haven´t this problem , but this weekend I have made a long trip and I have realized of which tomtom is hung when 3G or UMTS is no signal, that is to say, that the GPS lets work when there is no signal of 3G, I have proven it xq I have put I telephone in GSM and the GPS is not connected, but i have active 3G in telephone, the GPS activates at the moment in he himself place where without 3G not it connected, and for that reason tomtom is blocked when losing the signal of 3G becomes crazy and it is blocked, I hope that somebody knows like using the GPS without the signal 3G
hola, llevo ya mas de dos semanas con la rom de Lvsw con el GPS aqctivado, a la gente le daba problemas de bloqueos con el tomtom, yo no tenía ninguno, pero estae finde he realizado un viaje largo y me he dado cuenta de que el tomtom se cuelga cuando no hay señal 3G o UMTS, es decir que el GPS deja de funcionar cuando no hay señal de 3G, lo he probado xq he puesto el telefono en GSM y no se conecta el GPS ni aunquer pase tres horas, pero si activo el 3G en el telefono, el GPS se activa de momento en el mismo lugar donde sin el 3G no se conectaba, y por eso se bloquea el tomtom xq al perder la señal del 3G se vuelve loco y se bloquea, espero que alguien sepa como utilizar el GPS sin la señal 3G

is tomtom navigator 5 working, too?
here in germany they sell tomtom6 in the vodafone shops as a special VPA compact GPS-version. But did anyone try tomtom 5 yet?? Just asking, 'cause I need maps including germany and poland - but the new western europe coming with TT6 don't cover PL. The TT5 version is still available with DACH PL CZ-maps... So please tell me if someone successfully runs TTN5 !!
THX, S.

M700 & Tom Tom Freezing
I have been trying to work out why my M700 freezes when using Tom Tom Navigator 6 with maps of Western Europe.
Turns out it is the speed camera's POI from other countries that causes it.
So remove all the speed camera POI and it works fine. (Not sure which "Speed Cam. POI country " is the calprut, but left only UK on and this works.)

GPS is already active on the Orange M700, for some reason your Marketing Department hasnt bothered pushing this as a feature at all, but hey-ho.
To get it working get tom tom 6.03 OR search for GPSUtil125Setup.exe this will show you your GPS and get it talking. Otherwise arent sure what GPS being encrypted has to do with anything
BTW slap your IT support department cos last timeI phoned them I had to teach them about the phone

I have tried the TomTom 5 on a Compact II and have all these maps you are talking about
It works perfectly fine
You can have the maps copied if you wish
(I would gladly take from someone the Naviagtor 6 maps for my new HTC P3300)

wireless

Hello,
can someone help me out, because i am desperate, in the w-lan settings, i get connected to my wireless network, but in "internet explorer" he always says canoot find page when i access a website. I've tried this with L26 diamond v3, the last orignal htc rom, and dutty's last.
Is their a step-by-step tutorial somewhere, how to set up a wireless connection.
Voor de de nederlanders/belgen onder ons: ik raak geconnecteerd met mijn netwerk in mijn wifi settings, mijn apparaat krijgt het ip adres van mijn router (via vxutil) , maar in mijn browser kan ik geen enkele website raadplegen.
Is er ergens een stap-voor-stap tutorial om een wifi connectie op te zetten, want ik vind het maar zo en zo op een pda.
grtz

no offense, but if you cant even figure out your wireless settings, then this might not be the right site for you

Pocket PC General Help Questions and Tutorials - Don't talk about things like this here!

judgement
hello,
you should not make a judgement so fast, all the obvious settings were oke, i've been using pocket pc and stuff for a few years now. the problem was that on the energy tabs, the settings were not correct ! i changed them and now it works fine
so if someone has a freecom fsg-3 router, and they can't connect, just play with the energy settings on your network card, and then it works fine
grtz

use the internet of my pc on my diamond when connected with usb?

Hi,
when i plug my diamond onto my pc, i get the question what i want to do, active sync, storage, or internet sharing. the last one is meaned to share the gprs with, for example, an lptop. but is the any posibility to use it the other way so i can use the internet of my pc on my diamond? the point is i have no wlan and i want to download an tom tom map, he asks if i want to download one for free, and that only the mobile internet charges are charged... so i dont think i can download it on my computer, and after that copy it to my phone, its realy neweded i think that my phone could connect to the internet himself...
thanks,
Bart

If i read your question correctly, you want the diamond to use your computers internet connection when connected via USB instead of a mobile data connection.
This is enabled by default; whether you use ActiveSync or Diskdrive.
You can test this by disabling your GSM connection - you're still able to do websurfing on your diamond when connected through USB.

ey, ik heb ff geprobeerd, maar als ik de gsm zender uitschakel en dat probeer internet te starten krijg ik een foutmelding, dus blijkbaar krijgt hij geen verbinding met mijn internet van mij computer... aangezien je nederlands bent ff voor de zekerheid uitleg in het nederlands : ik wil als ik thuis zit niet giga betalen aan gprs internet kosten om mijn tomtom kaart te downloaden terwijl ik een internet verbinding thuis heb. ik wil dus dat hij mijn internet van thuis gebruikt via het usb draadje die op mijn computer zit aangesloten...
heeft dit bij jou al wel gewerkt? of heb je er over gehoord?
misschien kun je ook ff in nl antwoorden, dan zet ik hier wel een update in het engels als het lukt / niet lukt...
english: sorry for the dutch, but i see he's dutch, so for sure he understands me right i explained it in dutch a 2nd time fort now his solution seems not to work for me, but when its working i'll responding in english again

Bij mij werkt 't.
wat ik doe:
* Plug telefoon in usb
* kies activesync
* zet de telefoon in flight mode / zet telefoon zender uit in comm-manager
--> navigeren naar webpagina's werkt / je telefoon gebruikt de verbinding van je pc.
Natuurlijk zijn er ook andere manieren om aan TomTom maps te komen. Kopen in de winkel bijvoorbeeld
ROM: 2.03
OS: vista ultimate 64
____
works for me:
plug telephone in usb
choose activiesync
set telephone to flightmode / disable all wireless communication
navigating to any web address still works --> telephone is using host's internet connection.

sorry, forget to replay, a bit strange, but later i pluged him in, it worked... i have looked at some things at the settings of netwerk ports and such, but think ive changed nothing there... anyway, it works, even with telefone antenna not switched off... i dont like it to switch it off, becouse basicly, its a phone, so i have to be able to be called.. does someone know a workaround to get an question "do you realy want to connect to gprs internet?" before connecting? now a few times i saw a (G) at the top, within a few seconds i disconnected the connection, but it would be better to get the question, becouse i would only use it when i realy nead something. for all other cases i only want unsecured home networks and my usb cable...

(als iemand in het nederlands me niet begrijpt, vraag gerust om nederlandse verduidelijking )

You can mess around a little in "settings" --> "connections", even delete the data profile.
On the other hand, i can't imagine you want to use a pocket pc phone without data connections ? most operators in NL have unlimited data for only EUR 10,- a month...

it is not my meaning to delete de gprs data connection, but i want to confim that i want to be conected to gprs. yes, i know i can get internet for €10 a month at kpn, but at this moment i dont want it, maybe in the future. the fact is that i just dont want to switch off my gsm antenna when i want to be sure i only use unsecured networks and my usb cable for internet, no, i just want to confirm the action that my mobile is connecting to the gprs internet wich i have to pay...

interesting point, especially when roaming.
Maybe this is nice as a feature request for advanced config ?

k snap je niet helemaal? nld?

stel, jij wil dat je telefoon altijd aan je vraagt "vind je het goed als we data gaan halen via gprs / umts ?", en dat is default niet zo & je kan er geen optie voor vinden.
Dan kan je in dit forum vragen of iemand dat voor je wil programmeren, dat heet een feature request.
misschien dat de programmeur van advanced config dit voor je wil maken, kan je het hem vragen.

aaah, ok, ik zal eens zoeken waar dit kan dank.
misschien dat het al wel kan, dat ze dat met een optie daarvoor komen

Diamond GPS working ONLY in flight mode

Hi everyone, I'm from Venezuela and my carrier is Movilnet CDMA, recently I adquire a HTC Diamond, my previous phone was an HTC 6800, I will try to explain my trouble, but I'm not any good in english, so here we go:
1. The GPS works very well and locks in my city, only when it is in flight mode.
2. The registry key SUPL AGPS is empty by default, however I try every single tweak and GPSModes whit negative results.
3. In another cities of my country the GPS works flawless, even with filght mode on or off, I travel some cities and in some is working and in others simply not. This trouble is common for other CDMA HTC devices, i.e. HTC6800.
4. In areas with no coverage the cell phone, the GPS locks consistently and quick.
5. QuickGPS does nothing in my phone, it download data but I think the GPS doesn't use the data downladed.
6. All above happens to all people with diamond and another CDMA HTC devices in my country.
7. Our carrier doesn't use agps, in QPST all boxes are checked, the IP and port are set to 0, however I disable all boxes and I don't see any changes in performance of GPS.
The original radio was 1.12.34F, but now I'm using 1.12.20 because is giving me better gps results.
The ROM is stock, and the test was done with Garmin XT, GPSTest, VisualGPSce and HTC GPS tool, also instaled GPS fix from HTC and cleangpsdata. ;-)
I need some help for solve this issue, Thanks.

ya intentastes ponerle otra version de windows? chekale haber que pasa...
alamejor y es un problema con tu version

No
Hi, changing the rom is not a option, another people that I know has done that whitout positive results, the GPS trouble still the same. Anyway, there is no CDMA spanish ROM out, also I don't want to loose the phone warranty. Thanks BTW.

Xperia stuck in GSM mode

Hi everybody.
Sorry to disturb you but i have a serious problem with my xperia.
I recently tried the new nand version of sp3dev's CM 7 with his new kernel wich solved the problem of wifi suspend ecc...
now, i got back to WM.
I thought i did all right but now i phone is stuck in Gsm mode,
only sometimes it gets to EDGE and never to 3g or HSDPA.
When in GSM i have full coverage, but i can't call nor recieve..
I tried everything:
Task 29
new ROM (Dynamics)
new RADIO (1.17)
Task 29
new ROM again (Energy (just to try..))
but nothing seems to solve..
I tried the sim on another mobile phone, and i can call/recieve.
Thank you for the answers you will give me.
PS. i'm italian and my provider is TIM

hai la 3? Se si anche io sto avendo un sacco di problemi da qualche giorno su una scheda si e sull'altra no

Hem.. i feel a little stupid, but now everything works fine..
I mean, i don't know why, i changed nothing on my phone.
Half an hour after the boot (it still showed Gsm signal)
I recieved a call... and a minute later all the messages that were sent to me during the "blackout".
Now 3g/HSDPA is fully working (i am listening to an album on youtube..)
I really don't know what happend.. maybe flashing the radio helped... but i don't know why it worked just after half an hour.
I feel sorry for occupying space on the forum.
Close or delete
PS. grazie per l'interessamento lemon88. Ero tre, ora sono Tim.. e comunque ora va tutto bene..

Because the problem was solved after half an hour, I think it wasn't a flashing-related problem.
Either there was a problem with your mobile network (even if the signal is strong), or maybe a problem with wm (maybe it's busy searching for media/images on first boot).
Glad your problem was solved, though
