Hi,
I brought my phone to repair service cause of accelometer problem.
Service refused to fix it and refused a fact that mobile phone has a defect at all.
There's what they said: Accelometer is not a hardware but software and so we can't fix a software.
The only original HTC application using sensor is Teeter where my phones Teeter ball drifts to the same corner on various flat surfaces without phone's battery cover and is unplayable but service do not care about it at all and refuse the measurements of 3rd party software.
What chip is Diamond accelometer?
How can I prove the deffect to the service?
Thank's

teeter is not the only software that uses the chip. Opera and HTC Album also uses it. See if it works on these softwares.
Yes, but with Opera and Album it's a binary situation - portrait or landscape. So you can't really check it. Teeter is a good test in that it shows the degrees instead of just a dual situation.
Does your phone have a stock ROM? If you have flushed a custom ROM they can technically refuse to work on it. But if you have a stock ROM then they're obliged to fix it - be it hardware or software, what the heck would you know and care about? The darn device is not working as it should!

Did you read my post #4 and follow the links before pointing others to softpedia?
It's redundant.
Hi, I have a Diamond that seem to have a GPS not working even after reflashing with original ROM, hard reset and QuickGPS.
Is there any tool capable of giving some more information rather than just "fix not available", "GPS starting up" or similar and/or that can detect where the problem is? (everything working, needs more time, antenna broken, chipset broken, etc.)
I've tried HTC GPS Tool, GPS Tuner, GPS Test, TomTom but they don't give any useful info.
Hi Luca, I got somewhat the same problem.. whenever i start any program using the gps or testing the gps function my whole phone freezes and i have to take out the batt.
I don't know where the antenna is located but I think I broke it when I dropped in on the street 2 weeks ago
Check this thread out. I was having the exactly same problem. Now it is ok.

Disable the QuickGPS, Replace the bin files, Soft reset.
Everything back to normal!

I've got a problem!
As the title say, i've lost the WiFi MAC. Don't ask me how but, after a radio upgrade, MAC was disappeared!
Someone have an idea to solve this problem?
Is there ROM portion where I can put a fake MAC or recover the original?
Tanks for the attention

The cause of thit issue is the same of MicroP error...
The solution is to open the Diamond and after removing the MB unplug & plug the connectors behind.
But pay attention, is required hardware experience
UP for all

What is the MB? You can explain better how to do this?
Regards,
Can you take some photos of how to deal with it？
I found this very helpful when I dissambled the Diamond:

It is in Russian, but with the pictures included it is quite easy to follow.
Good luck!
Hi
My samsung i5800 blocked and after hard reset i have no longer wi.fi mac address. Now it says 00:00:00....
Can someone help please
Hi my name is Mike. I am currently having a problem with my AT&T Tilt (8925)s GPS unit. I see the orange light at the top flashing but the phone is not recieving signal at all. I heard if you use HTC GPS Tool it will tell you if it works. I am using it right now and I am noticing all these messages rolling over the screen when I select COM4 4800:
$GPVTG,,T,,M,M,,K*4E
$GPGSV,1,1,00*79
$GPGGA,,,,,,0,,,,,,,,*66
$GPRMC,,V,,,,,,,,,,N*53
$GPGSA,A,1,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,*32
repeated over and over again.
When I click the satellite tab nothing is found.
Also I am not sure if it matters that my keyboard is the old version and it claims to be a 8925 when it looks different in pictures online.
If anyone can help fix this problem I will pay $3 via paypal (IF ALLOWED BY MODS AND ADMINISTRATOR, OTHERWISE FORGET IT)
I found this on a website but I still dont understand why its doing that.
$GPGSV,1,1,00*79 = 0 Satellite Vechicles in view
$GPGGA,,,,,,0,,,,,,,,*66 = No GPS Fix data available
$GPRMC,,V,,,,,,,,,,N*53 = V in field 2 means navigation receiver warning (invalid position)
$GPGSA,A,1,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,*32 ==> Automatic mode (3D/2D) & Fix not available
$GPVTG,,T,,M,,N,,K*4E = NO GPS data available
EDIT: I tried the GPS on Android 2.1 on the phone and still no connection at all.
I dont understand this.
Please help me!
Thanks,
Mike
I take it you have tried a soft and hard reset?
Are you outside when it is looking for Satellites? It can also take some time to get an initial lock on. Perhaps if you switch off the auto-off/powersaving part of the phone and go outside, set it on a wall and wait...and wait....and wait... and hopefully it will get a lock.
Good luck I recall years ago with a Garmin GPS that was Serial and not Parallel receiver it would take aaaaaaaages to get a lock on ie, up to 45 minutes! Usually after it was OK but even so!
Is this a factory rom?
Not Sure of your location... However when I experienced problems in the STATES it was usually the Radio I need to change... Plus having [QuickGPS] installed to help moved the GPS initialization along [Finding a satellite lock] For me about 2-5 Min on average, depending on location. Also not sure what you use for Navigation but I use TomTom and it's been problem free....
Good luck

Good advice.
Got one questions for you guys, are you using additional antennas or is there's a build-in one? My kaiser really sucks about gps, it hardly ever locks gps even outdoors. But got a solution: Get a cooper wire which fits into GPS antenna socket, cut about 5-5.5cm of it and stick it into the socket you can bend it so it won't disturb. Maybe you can stick it under the rear cover so it won't be visible.
With this short cooper wire i've got a steady gps lock even indoors.
Sorry for my bad english

Oh sorry
I have, finally, succeed in fixing my GPS issue
I have taken a short wire do a loop with it and plug it into the GPS external port.
I have sticked my cheap installation into the mobile back !
Please find enclosed two pics representing my installation... with a brief scheme!
Hope it helps.
Kind regards from France,
Nino
I think you guys should learn from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=571266
for your gps program could work
I have disassemble my device once before to replace my digitizer but i didnt spot any antenna, maybe there is one but i didnt see it i dont know.
And if so, would an extended antenna improve the signal ?

Im sure Cyan had a option to use a bluetooth GPS module as default, (you select the internal GPS after first boot of the rom)
not sure about the hardware antenna, or if stock Roms have this feature.

Sorry i've been misunderstood. By extending i mean hacking / modding the hardware.
