Thanks a lot. I saw that when i was searching google for stuff but the page i went to said it only worked for touchpro. This looks like it will be exactly what i need!

This should definitely work on the kaiser.
I know this has been asked before but im getting frustrated i cant get it to work >.<
I bought the tytn II for the gps mainly and for mine not to work its just annoying,
Ive tried all sorts of different roms and radios combined and all end up with the same result.
My GPS does not lock at all no matter if i leave it over night with the power plugged in, when the using gps test program it doesnt lock it always says "GPS Starting UP" the lights near the speaker flash from green and then to the orange and red on either side. So the gps is turning on but it will never lock.
Has anyone got anything, anything at all i can try? Or will i have to wait for HTC to make a fix for it?
If you can help me id be extremly happy =D
Many Thanks,
Kyon
Might want to try "GPS Tuner:" http://www.gpstuner.com/download/index.html. It shows the number of satellites received and strength. COM 4 is also the magic number to set for the phone's GPS to operate.
I usually activate it whenever I think a satellite mapping program like Garmin XT or Google Earth isn't working only to find I got weak signals or too few.

Awsome ill give it a try and then see what happens and report back =]
Thanks tho,
Hmm i tried the gps tuner and got nothing,
It said fix invailid and never picked up any sats or nothing im starting to wonder if my gps in the phone is busted, >.<
Shame if it is i have no idea how to tell if it is broken or not and if its replaceable or repairable v.v
If anyone has any other ideas to try lol =]
Many Thanks,
All sorts but not the right sort

Then unless you're in a lead lined room with no windows and in a place on the planet with little GPS coverage, you've not tried the combination in my sig.
You mentioned that you left the GPS on overnigth plugged in??? Any chance you are forgetting it has to be outside with a clear view of the sky to work in most situations? I have found if I accidently turn it on and it cant; find any satilietes in my plac,e then I try to use it outside it takes FOREVER to lock in.... How long are you waiting while outside somewhere with a clear view of hte sky (not inbetween soem buildings or anything like that)

I have tried outside for over a hour and got nothing >.< I'm at the point thinking it might just be my kaiser and go out and buy another lol but so many people have the same issue i also think it may not be my kaiser. Im just lost on what to try lol.

Hmm i could try your combination lol could you give me links to the rom and radio please =]
"So the gps is turning on but it will never lock."
sorry, what u mean "never lock"? ...I try Google Earth mobile ... some time can see detected 6 satellites sometime 2 ... the figure keep up & down .... is that mean "never lock"??
Most likely your Kaiser is defective.
To tsfatt: Him saying the GPS never locks means that if he did what you say the figure would always stay 0.
yeah looks that way, i bought it second hand and i think it may of been dropped and damaged before i bought it
When using GPS test the sateillites show up sometimes they dont have any signal but they show up for a couple seconds then dissapear >.< so i dont know where i stand.
Think ill just buy a brand new one and see where that takes me lol but i wont give up just yet may opent he phone up and see for a lose connection.
Thanks,
P.s Keep the ideas coming guys =] more the merrier X3

The Radio is built into the RUU (ROM upgrade package) so if you already have a Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM on the device, all you'd need to do is flash hardSPL 1.0 onto the device and then run the official HTC RUU which is avail at the HTC Kaiser ROM section of XDAs wiki near the bottom of the page. If you later want the HTC original SPL 1.93, pm me as I got mine from one of the mods here.

I suggest that loading the basic GPS software (such as TomTom 6.032 or Google Maps) and testing it is the first thing you do after the post ROM flash hard reset. That way you can be sure that nothing else is interfering with the GPS functionality. If it still doesn't work then as already mentioned there's probably a hardware issue. If you have a compatible HTC GPS antenna, plugging that into the socket near the camera cover, while not necessary, may help. Let us know what happens.

I have tried the Shifuz Rom but didn;t help.... Also the stock rom doesn;t help wondering what could suddenly happen... and the GPS stopped workin it used to work like a chic....
What are you doing to test it? You used to have to run a program to jump start it for some reason. Quick gps maybe? All it did was measure the satelite signals.
I test if from the Mio map application and also turbo GPS app.. Quick gps is jus used to update for faster sat tracking..

Hi guys, I mingled with my phone last night and installed this android build i saw on neopeek, it said it has 3d drivers and camera working so i thought idd give it a shot. I installed it and it worked pretty fast , then i wanted to download an app and started wifi.
It took longer than usual to activate so i went to settings (i activated it from the power control widget 1st) to check out whats going on. And wifi it was saying activating .. error. I tried a few times when i said to myself , oh well, good build , but wifi aint working.
I returned to windows mobile and now i cant activate it anymore not even in windows mobile. I tried everything, soft reset, hard reset, installed a stock rom, nothing works
can anyone help me ? is it broken hardware ? should i use the heat gan on the wifi chip ? what should i do ? thanks
this is what the guy says to do

hi, i installed your rom, replaced the kernel for the camera to work, and i tried logging into wifi, it said error. i returned to windows mobile and now the wifi doesnt work in windows mobile either. is there something i can do ? thx
i remember that in early version it happens. I thinks the solution was to reset our device until windows recognize wifi.
i tried everything, soft reset, hard reset, installed a different rom with new radios, nuthin` worked. I think the wifi is broken hardware
Also When im in windows mobile and i go to device information , i can see the bluetooth mac address, i cant see wifi anywhere in the hardware tab
Sorry for editing once again , just wanted to say i tryed MTTY format + ROM installation, and its the same, i guess its hardware broken and i need a heatgun, will post updates, if anyone cares
200+ views and no answer. Thats pretty sad, i guess im posting so i can bump it in front, maybe someone sees it and can help somehow.
you don't see wifi MAC address under hardware..
I had same problem, changed bottom buttons(contains wifi chip as well) and now working
I changed them because they had pretty bad scratches.
you can get those pretty cheap on ebay.
if reassembing, make sure you connect screen and buttons ribbon cable(they don't snap in)
solved
Okay first of all i would like to thank the person who posted an answer , it really helped.
I didnt even buy new buttons, i just disconnected the phone from all the connectors (display, buttons, etc.), and reconnected. It was really hard reconnecting the display but i did it in the end. Now wifi works once again !
One happy camper here !
If you guys have the same problem , and have enough patience to disassemble and reassemble , this is your answer !
Mods, you can rename this one as solved
I have two HTC Diamonds CDMA that I no longer use. I would like to put Linux on them and do something useful or cool. Do you guys have any suggestions of what I could use my old phones for?

I'm gonna try to use one for a remote control or mouse on my PC using Bluetooth. Let me know what you end up doing with it and I will do the same.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I have not decided yet. I have been busy writing apps for WP7. I also thought about using it as a remote or some kind of touch pad for the PC. They probably will sit in my closet then ten years later I will dig them out and laugh.
I need to find a rom with the bare bones no sense just to install some good apps for my computer. I gave the touch diamond to my sister when I upgraded to my evo. She just bought the evo shift so I'm getting it back from her.
Have you got a chance to check out Touchxperience? I haven't read up on it since I switched to android...
http://www.touchxperience.com/
TouchExperience looks awesome and I will definitely like to play around with it once it comes out.
Ok.. this is my setup... running mightyrom 6 from http://www.mightyrom.com and installed gremote from their website. http://www.gbmsoftware.com/
I found a windows mobile version under the download section.(free) I couldn't get the phone to active sync with my PC so I downloaded the app(gremote) to my PC and downloaded the cab(gremote) to my phone.
I go to settings on my diamond and the the Home section-> Items and unchecked everything. Then I took the gmote app and put it in the windows/startup folder. This way when I turn on the phone the remote app starts on its own.
Its really not that hard to setup. Im curious to hear someone else try it..
Its awesome.. I can now use the phone to control the mouse pointer on my 32 inch flat screen.It also functions as a keyboard too.
The app uses wifi to connect so make sure your wifi is turned on on the phone..
My only source of internet at the moment is tethering my evo4g to PC using wireless tether and its amazing all my devices are now linked..
Cool and thanks for the feedback. I am still busy writing apps for WP7. Today I got a great geeky idea but I like it. I am going to set up the phone to provide useful information like weather or something and thought about mounting it on a wall or putting somewhere else. Done right it will be seamless and always their to provide info.
Hopefully you do not read about me in the news. Mans house burns down because he had a phone embedded in the wall and the battery exploded.
Q What can I do with my Diamond
ArmyScout can you get in touch with this guys or anyone here to shed some light on a few things for us?
And did Peter pass? If so when and how? Or are you just setting this for him as Head of the Pathfinders fo him? more info, more info.
