after reading several posts on the forum about gps locking on to satellites
when using any sat nav software i like many others have spent about 3 days trying all the fixes on the forums. when i first got the phone the gps locked on to sats no problems and then one day nothing .
then my missus noticed one thing that i had changed the battery which i purchaced from ebay but the main difference was the new battery was a high capacity version 1800ma which comes with a replacement back to compensate for the extra thickness. so once she pointed this out i ran a test and as soon as i ran the phone with the original battery instant satellite
lock. then i went back to the high capacity battery and i get nothing not one satalite. this is well worth a try. i guess i owe the wife a bunch of flowers

Gary, you should always buy your lady flowers irrespective of her bug fixing skills.
I just got my HTC Touch Diamond and I hope I don't have a problem with the GPS.
Yup
Some of the aftermarket batteries / backs interfere with the GPS.
Check in the accessory forum before picking one up.
I'm using the 1350 battery from HTC (via Expansys) and it works fine (as does the GPS).
I remember seeing a thread about this, and they solved this by putting tinfoil (I think that is the correct word?) between the battery and gpsreceiver in the phone. Anyone knows what thread I am talking about?
any thing els
is there something new for this error ?
High capacity battery - no GPS - tinfoil solution
My GPS used to work with Tomtom and Google Maps, etc... and then suddenly it stopped working. It was at a time when I started to install lots of new applications because the original battery didn't even last a day and I got fed up. I got a high capacity battery, which meant I could start using my phone a whole lot more.
I would never have thought that the bigger battery would cause GPS to stop working. From another thread I decided to do a hard reset - my first ever! That didn't solve the problem.
Eventually I found this answer (just after I decided to buy a cheap standalone GPS!).
Sure enough when I put the small battery back in the GPS started to work again. I then folded some tinfoil and put it on the underside of the battery (between the battery and the phone, in other words) and I have both the GPS and the high capacity battery.
Thank you very much for this.
I installed TouchLockPro 3 days ago on my BELL HTC Diamond, which is a CDMA one.
After playing with the settings, I got it working well. I really liked it.
But during 3 days trial, I decided to abandon it and try something else:
Two problems:
1) Diamond dead once. Just stayed in stand by mode, I couldn't turn it back on by pressing the power button. I had to take the battery out.
2) With the charge cable (original one) connected. after about 8 hours, Diamond started to keep reseting itself. On and Off, on and off. I had to take the battery out to get Windows Mobile started, and uninstall the TouchLockPro. And I found that the battery level is almost 0. So somehow even with the charger connected, it drained the battery and not allow the cell phone to be charged.
Of course, I cannot say those two problems were caused by Touchlockpro for sure. But just post it here to share what happened to my Diamond after I installed the latest version of TouchLockPro.
Thanks
Ordered Pocketshield. Very nice software!
Just used for a day. So far sooooo good!

Too bad you did experience problems with your phone. However I did not hear anyone else having this sort of problems with TouchLockPro. There are a lot of Diamond CDMA users, so I doubt if TouchLockPro is responsible for your problems. There is a newer version 2.8 available today. So if you decide to try TouchLockPro again and you still experience problems, I am glad to help to find the cause. Because only in this way TouchLockPro can get better. But I expect the problems are unrelated to TouchLockPro. I hope your problems will keep away, if you try other locking solutions.
Hi there!
I recently changed my battery with an ORIGINAL new one because I had a problem... that is still here...
Every time I turn on wifi (even with 100% of battery) my phone turns off after 2 or 3 minutes (and it seems that's because of the battery.)
Sometimes it turns off even when I'm just calling (more often when the battery is less then 20-30%).
EDITED: 30-40 seconds before it turns off the screen and the physical keyboard backlight start to flicker.
EDITED: Now it turns off EVERY time I make or receive a call after 4-5 minutes!
Exemple: Today the battery life was around 50%. I tried to turn on wifi. After 2 minutes of wifi use it turned off. I tried to turn it on but there was the flashing red led and it turned off again every time (it was like uncharged ).
Then I tried to remove the battery for a few hours, I put it back in and the battery life was the same of before the "turning off" problem, around 50%. What does it mean??
My hypothesis is that it gets excessively hot when I use wifi and even when I call... But I don't really know what that's about..
[my ROM is this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=586463, the english version. I got the right RADIO, I checked yesterday]
Thanks for any suggestion!!

Try this...
Check the battery contacts on the phone -- clean them with a little isopropyl alcohol, and gently pry them up a little so they make solid contact with the battery.
I'll try what you say, thanks a lot!
I just want to say (I forgot it in the first post) that the screen and even the physical keyboard backlight start to flicker 30-40 seconds before the kaiser turns off.
After prying and cleaning the battery contacts the problem isn't solved yet. I didn't use the isopropyl alcohol, I'll try it asap.
Anyway now the problem is even worse, the kaiser shuts down each call after 2 or 3 minutes! Of course if the phone is charging (via usb) NO PROBEL, even the flickering isn't there any more...
Any other possibility of fixing that? (I have no warrantee, I really hope I fix that by my self just with your help!)
btry prob
well.. find out if one of ur friends has kaiser..... exchange batteries... i.e u isert his btry into ur kaiser and ur btry in his kaiser and then try the wifi n calls from both fones..... this will precisely tel u whether it a fault in the fon or u didnt get The genuine btry.... hope this helps.... do leme knw.....
Thanks for replying but I'm using a brand new battery and the problem is still the same of the old battery, nothing changed...
perhaps the problem is really not the battery but rather the battery's charging.
the point of exchanging your battery with a friend's battery is that you will be able to test your device with a known properly charged battery.
alternatively, you can try to charge your existing battery with an external battery charging pack or by inserting your battery in a friend's phone and let it charge there.
i understand that you claim your battery is brand new, and this is leading you to conclude that it can NOT be the battery at fault...but strange things happen in this strange world!
Wow I didn't see this problem from that point of view!
The only person I know that has a Kaiser is 600km far from me...
Now I have to find a way to properly charge my battery (if it isn't already properly charged of course!)...
But just one question: if the Kaiser is not charging good the battery, why should it "think" that it's 100% charged??
welllll.... trust me..... i once had a sony ericsson k770i. the shopkeeper said that it has ORIGINAL btry.... n it wud turn off after 20 min talk. so my advise is try another btry from another shop.....
But I tried with 2 different batteries, my old one and a new one and the problem is the same. I also have to say that it's always worse then before. Now even if I turn on the camera after some minutes it turns off, ora yesterday even when I was writing a text message.
Indeed it's possible that the battery is always less charged because the Kaiser doesn't charge it. The Kaiser works good when connected with usb to may mac...
well buddy, ur last post clearly suggests a prob with btry.... say hw much had u used ur old btry before changing it
I used a battery for around one year, but it was already used (I've bought a used Kaiser, in very good conditions, on eBay).
The problem I have started with the old battery and now it keeps torturing me with the new one... Today I had my phone charged, but after 4-5 hours without using it I received a call and of course it turned off (after the flickering screen) I'm desperate...
o boy... its 200% confirmed btry prob. i m guessing, if u wud talk with charger or data cable plugged in, it wud work for hours ryt? my sincere advice is, go to a trustworthy shop n get a new battery. i m also using a new btry but it gives really gud tym on wifi, wap n calls....
Well I really think the battery I've just bought is a brand new original Battery, I checked all codes, voltage and other stuff... BTW I think I'll try to use another orignal battery (I'm sure that's original) of a friend of mine's Kaiser before I buy a new one. Here in Italy battery and gadgets prices are really high... Thanks 4 the help anyway!
PS: I really hope it's a battery problem, because if it's something else I don't really know what to do.... thanks again!
Update: I noticed that if I don't use Camera, Wifi or even make calls at all, my kaiser works for 2-3 days with no problem. I send lots of text messages, play Solitaire or view my photo album for example...
Why just more "intensive" tasks should make my phone turn off in 2-3 minute?
I don't really understand... I hope I'll find someone in my town that can fix it... BTW thank for any help
i have searched on the forum and found no one with the same symptoms that i am experiencing. i have had my kaiser for about a year now and have been happy for the most part with battery consumption. but about 2 weeks ago my battery started draining super fast when i'm talking on the phone. even with a bluetooth and the screen off. i don't remember changing any settings at all. for a 10 min phone conversation i can use 25% or more of my battery. i purchased a cheap extended battery a few months ago and i get the same results regardless of which battery i use. i purchased the phone with WM6.5 pro from PDACorner/ abusalza (ROM version: PC.Ultimate.V17 WWE)already installed. i really like the ROM and all the apps installed and i'm not reall excited about flashing a new ROM. any help will be greatly appreciated.
Could be that both batteries are bad.
My battery started to drain very quickly last June, so in Sept. I bought a new battery,( cheap one, on line ) worked great. I used both batteries back and forth to make sure that I always had a fully charged battery.
Last Dec. My phone started turning off for no reason, ( like the battery was dead ) so I stopped using the old battery and just used the " new one ". About a week later my phone went into a start up; reset loop. It would not boot without resetting. I figured the battery was old 3 months old, it couldn't be the battery. I tried everything else short of buying a new phone. Finally I went on line and bought another cheap battery. The phone has worked perfect ever since.
Moral of the story ? Don't discount the battery just because it still seems new. I got what I paid for from my $12 battery, a little over three months.
that all makes sense, but the battery only drains this fast when i'm on the phone. nothing else; wifi, movies, even gps drains as fast as using the phone...
Same issue here..
Strange thing is that when on the phone battery is draining very fast and most of the time the call is cut off. When I start the phone again I still have power and can work on my phone, when I try to make another phone call the phone cuts off in one second. I hear about to batteries, where is the other one and can I replace it?
Well if you have a custom rom on the phone the radio might need to be changed.
Very true, try running the stock radio for your device/carrier and see if you get the same results. For me personally I've noticed a difference in battery usage especially during calls depending on the radio. For me on AT&T in the US the original radio seems the best.
please help me~
i've been having this weird problem since about 2 weeks ago,
when i decided to flash my diamond with a newer 6.5.3 rom(freya 2019 version in this case)replacing the current 6.5 rom....
the flash take place fluently and nothing unusual happens...
the problem comes after the flash>>>when i tried making a call to test the rom>>>for about 2 minutes or so the call lasted before my phone suddenly shutted itself down, like the battery was drained...i tried turning it off again but the phone shutted down again soon after the first splash screen...like the battery is running out~
the phone will boot normally again if i let it for about 5 minute or if i connected it to the charger for a quick charge...
the problem also come when i was taking pictures with the camera...i can only snap a few pictures before the phone shuts down itself..
however,,if i dont make or receive any calls or taking pictures,,,the battery will last for a whooping 2 days(original 900mah battery)~
i even tried changing the radio rom from the original 1.00.25.05 to some few others to no avail..the problem persisted....
the problem came even when the phone was fresh 100% charged so i guess it's not the battery's fault,,,the problem never happened to me in the previous rom or when i'm running the stock rom~
any help will be greatly appreciated
thanks in advance>>
