Hi people, I have two problems: first my HTC Touch Pro take a long minutes (4,5,6) to lock GPS signal; second after lock the signal when I star a navigation I observe a GPS lag (200 meters). I read this problems at the forum, but there are so many answers , Im so confused...
This is my HTC Touch Pro Settings:
HTC Touch Pro
ROM version: 1.90.170.6 WWE
ROM date: 08/27/08
Radio Version: 1.02.25.19
Protocol version: 52.33.25.17U
I used Tomtom version.7.918 (9193)
If someone have a similar HTC Touch Pro please tell me what solutions you find for this problems.
Thank you very much.
Your best bet is probably to flash one of the latest radios. It looks like you have the stock one, which is crap for the gps. The gps will never be great, though.

Hello everyone,
i have solved all my problems with my htc diamond gps lag using Tomtom 7. Now the point on the map while moving is perfect and in time. Just upgraded the rom with the one of DIB and the radio from 25.95 to 25.08 version. (also the 3g signal is better now!).
Well.. using iGO 8 (with 3d buildings, real terrain, poi and everything) the gps lag is still big. At least 50/75 meters!!! has someone solved it? I tried to setup the features of the software as low as possible... but.. nothing changed. any help is appreciate!
Thanks!
excuse me, but what is "DIB" and what radio version is 25.95 or 25.08?
dib is an italian rom for htc touch diamond and 08 is the radio version with good umts and gps signal.
Can anyone else confirm if the radio upgrade fixes the GPS lag problem for Navigation software?
I never suffered gps lag or at max very few, just 1/2 seconds (I think anyway it is normal), after 2 hours, neither wait to test the phone, I cook the newest rom & the newest radio (at that time was 07), right now I have BS14 ver (previuos) was with 08 and ALL has always worked, so I really don't know if with old radios there is that (in)famous lag... because I never had older radios than 07
bye,
davide
thx, did not know DIB yet.
Hello,
i've tried everything (soft-reset, hard-reset, romupdate, HTC GPS Tool), but it won't work for me...
My Rom: 1.93.207.2
Date: 08.12.08
Radio: 1.00.25.05
Original o2 (german provider) Firmware rom.
Google Maps doesn't find GPS, TomTom doesn't find GPS, nothing finds gps...
Would be great if you could help me.
MrMex
PS: htc gps tool doesn't find any satellit
Have you tried tag the battery out for 10 mins. Worked for me when i had this problem.
Had same problem. Batteries out for a while, and then installing and running GPSTest.
Leave your Touch diamond ouside for a very long while (over 30 minutes or so) and in my case its running again

Hi,
yeahhh - hurrey, it works!
big thxs
Ok, first I have been reading for about 2 months now regarding this problem.
I have installed the phoenix rom. They say to use a 1.65.xxxx radio(which I've tried) but still nothing.
Carrier: AT&T
Location: 10 minutes from Philadelphia, PA
CE OS: 5.2.21109(build 21109.5.0.0)
ROM version: 3.57.502.2 WWE
Radio version: 1.71.09.01(have tried alot)
I like phoenix rom, I don't want to change it.
Why oh why can't I get or make calls. I upgraded from hermes(never had a problem, but the screen cracked) I need some guidance.
If your one of those tarts that say "Don't feed the noob"(I've been reading everyday at least 4 hours per day, while being only on XDA developers faithfully since I've heard of the website)
What is the best configuration for optimal GPS reception ?
I have a Touch HD with Miri's 7.1 version (23017 build) with Manila 2.5.
Radio 1.09.25.14
My GPS reception lowered considerable since upgrading from original WM6.1 rom.
I have less satellites and it takes much longer to connect to them.
Anyone else have similar issues ?
thanks,
jabax

I dont know if mirri have included a difrent RADIO in hes ROM. But try a diffrent RADIO, it might help. And check youre GPS settings as this might changed when you flashed to a new ROM.
And another thing... This question should be in mirris ROM thread. Mod is gonna lock this tread any time now..
My sister have an HTC Touch Diamond. It was locked by Vodafone, but this is unlocked still by me.
The LCD of phone is very strange. After few days from a new ROM installing (firstly is perfect), I can use hardly the touching. When I touch the "A" point, the phone perceives the "B" point. Rarely help me the LCD calibration, a period of time it work, but after a while it goes wrong again.
I try more ROMs, but it was same by all. The LCD-touching work fine, but after few days, goes wrong.
Thanks forward for anything type of help!

maybe you can try using the G-Sensor Calibration! you can look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=430070
Try going back to 6.1 !
Diamond has known issues with the 6.5 , because the headset is old and oftenly does rage when sees a new OS (a far better one than the once had...)
If this still doesnt work , my option is this. Buy a new touchscreen. It`s a sad option , but desperate times require desperate measures.
Wait for other replies , dont go THAT harsh on your headset just yet...
