i had that doubt... so i asked directly HTC.. this is the reply
Dear Sir,
The GPS chip in the P3300 is a Qualcomm.
Thank you for your enquiry, Should you have any other problem, please do not hesitate to call us. Your Local number can be found at http://www.europe.htc.com/support/cs_by_phone.html
Best regards,
HTC Support

so not SirfStarIII but Qualcomm Chip as p3600!
Edit : It's a sirf, wrong information from Support HTC.
So what does it mean ?
Good or bad ?
mate, I hate to tell you:
this is incorrect. The person from HTC that has sent you this information is wrong...
... be sure to check this:
http://www.sirf.com/PressRoom/Press.aspx?PressId=84
PavelR.
Basing on a post in the Trinity forum, vvv121 said "This is the information from HTC engineering: the P3600 does have the GPS chip inside. However, it is not a SiRF Star III chip the Artemis is using, but an integrated GPS solution from Qualcomm."
Again, what is the difference ?
Which one is better ?
they told me that two times, when i asked for my p3600 and when i asked for p3300, they told me p3300 and p3600 have same GPS chip qualcomm. Try to ask yourself if someone told you it's a sirf chip.
Here's what the htc p3300 user manual says:
GPS
Chipset SirF StarIII with Ephemeris Extension support
Has anyone cracked open an Artemis?
I have too a p3300 and manual said it's a sirf... but why when i ask for GPS chip they reply me two times a qualcomm chip ?
If the manual says SirfIII, then it should really be a SirfIII. I don't think that HTC would be that stupid to publish documents falsely written as they can be sued.
Many a times, most sales reps and/or even tech support staff don't even know what they are talking about.
yes it's a sirf, now i'm more happy.. support this time told it's a 20 channel sirf while p3600 is a 12 channel qualcomm.
Ahem!
Can someone change name of this thread, please?
It's very confusing and missleading at the same time.
Thanks!

I've done some work to get the HTCApache up and running with linux. Since this is an HTC phone, I believe another forum is justified. I realize that it's USA only and this is primarily a european site, so I will understand if you turn me down. I do think, however, that this site is a great place where many resources are available.
This is a fairly new phone so I don't expect that there would be that much traffic (yet).

Hello everyone,
The thing is that I live in Turkey... And bought my imate jam (Magician) from a friend who bought it abroad... And because of a new law in Turkey, all the phones that were bought abroad were closed... And there is nothing no to be done with that... Government does not help anyhow... I used that phone for more than a year but then it was just closed by our Telecom... The only way is to buy a new phone or change phones imei... I have another old phone that does not work but it was bought here and imei works fine... So I would like to change my imei of the phone... I purchased jafwm and purchased credits for unlock, but finally got to know that it does not support magician for unlock... But it can change imei on the unlocked phone... So my main problem is cid unlock... my phone is sim unlocked so there is no problem with that... Or is there any other way to restore imei of the device?
Any solution you know?
Thanks beforehand...
Magician is not supported in this release no matter if you can cid unlock your phone or not. I wrote this allrady in the manual of JAFWM Restore in the day i released it. Just download the archive unpack it and see pdf inside.

Are you planning to add Magician unlock and imei restore support? I really need my device... And do not know what to do... Any solution?

I got really happy when I found your site... and purchased a dongle with credits... so bad it didnt work for my phone... Do you know any solution? Is there any way you could help me with that?
Please test the free alpha tool HTC IMEI Restore Wizard on the forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=59081&start=25
If this tool can display your IMEI, chances are it will most probably be able to change it as well!
100% free, no dongles, no credits, no waiting...
Please don't take this - or even +
Reading IMEI is easy anyway, through some TAPI work.
google for TAPIVBEXAMPLE.zip
you can see;
Manufacturer, Model, Revision #(Radio info) , IMEI and IMSI
but writing is something different because of different chipset issues I think or u got access to
special service SD cards
IMEI/lock database
So promising ; all models with only a one tool without some codes.
Keep cool[/img]

That's very funny, Raskal. My product is called the IMEI Restore Wizard. As in the Printer Installation Wizard. Or Help-Me-With-Some-Task Wizard. Such as Compression Wizard, Extraction Wizard, etc.
You're not a Windows desktop developer, so I don't expect you to be familiar with these standard naming conventions used in most Windows programs.
And I'm not surprised you made yourself look quite stupid, if you don't mind me saying so, by misunderstanding what the Wizard means in the naming of my product either! Very consistent with your overall qualifications so far.

I think you should read what I wrote in my first post. I stated that the goal for the Alpha release of the Wizard is to find out on which devices this method works on, and on which devices it fails. I know it works on HTC-Wizard, and I suspect it works on a lot of other HTC-devices.
Raskal, please keep your posts coming - I'm sure others enjoy reading them as much as I do.

instead of writing here a book about wizards, why you not simply say here what the thread starter is interested in:
Does your IMEI wizard works with a HTC WIZARD? YES or NO
I'll answer for you, it does NOT WORK, so releax and don't guess too much
mimarsinan
WHERE ARE YOU MIMARSINAN??
rascal,
sinan and I found the way to change the imei without modifying the radio rom to manipulate the developement imei in the code. (that is another way even if you dont know the checksum algorithm)
now sinan is preparing the sw to be released here for free for people who still suffer like we used to.
So, your answer is yes, the software will change the imei and the checksum without any problem on HTC wizards. without any usb dongle, without any card reader-writer or anything. just a usb-mini usb cable and the sw which is on its way here.
so, please stop argueing you 2 and let people use this program as soon as possible for free.

I 've already read this, but i think it's not for Htc Europe.
I donno where I've read it but I remember that dopod will upgrade the 3600 to wm6
Edit sorry losai already mention it
It's an old news you've got "Marcdu81" (april) !! Maybe the petition will have an effect !!
This is old news man! HTC already stated that if demand was high they would change views. I will not even bother posting the threads, go search yourself. Think before you post!
Sorry guys,but i've Phone to Htc France and they confirm : No wm6 for Trinity : I ask him this question : Why ? I wait again the answer !
I think you can wait a long time for nothing...There is no reason except "marketing" !!

You don't need a ROM from HTC. You can load the Dopod ROM to your device when it is released. If you need a French ROM, I'm sure that someone here will make one from the original Dopod D810 WM6 ROM.
i have an official email from Dopod Australia saying that they will be releasing a WM6 gps version soon (in the next couple of months).

Not quite the same getting your ROM from a company that re-badges these devices. I for one am way too lazy to change everything (boot splash etc) in the upcoming Dopod release to make it exactly like HTC.

it has been months. dopod aus never got the wm5 gps rom. i don't know why they are taking so long... probably because customer support doesn't make them money. even o2 was faster in releasing wm6 to atom life (and the support is crap, i've had 2 o2's)
by the time they release wm6 with gps rom, the d810, wm6 and even maybe gps will be obsolete, and we will all have a new device.

I know, but then... that's even more a reason to release it if one of your children companies is about to beat you to it.
Call me picky, but I want all the ROM version information/splash/logos etc all to be HTC.
HTC seems to have some automated response for my questions, even if you ask WHY the trinity ain't on the list of phones expecting an update, they send a link to the press release.
Growing a little tired of HTC lately, they're even removing the infrared port from their trinity-successor, Kaiser. What will I do with my $40 worth of TV remote software? Damn it!

I doubt if Kaiser will be released shortly - It has a Qualcomm chip in it, see http://www.boygeniusreport.com/gallery/handsets/htc-kaiser-unboxing/?pid=668#picture_nav
The US ITC has banned imports on phones with Qualcom chip with immediate effect. See http://www.nytimes.com/2007/06/08/business/08phone-web.html

Does anyone know the status of getting a Cavalier forum up and running? I've had my Cavalier for a few months know (Dopod C730) and I'm finding the forum info about it is getting spread all over the place since it doesn't have a home anywhere.
I'm especially interested in any solutions to the text input problem with Windows Live Search since that's a show-stopper for me.
PLEASE MAKE A CAVALIER FORUM. (Sorry to raise my voice like that. )
to echo everyone's posts...a Cavalier section would be greatly appreciated/needed....please mods make it happen.......
Any update on this? Us Dopod C730 owners would love not wading through Excalibur posts.
Support to have a Cavalier forum
YES
Yes, it should. It's hard to find the appropriate posts mixed in a dozen forums.
Thanks,

Agree, I need to unlock my Hongkong C730, and flash Singapore ROM to support Chinese Simplified. thanks
Please,
I vote Yes for a Cavalier forum!
Thanks.
I have to agree, I do not see why there would not be a separate Cavalier / c730
section.
What about a forum for the ipaq hx4700? I know that this website is for HTC PDAs but, the hx4700 was also called the Roadster in some markets and made by HTC. Considering that there's a thread over in the upgrading section with 595,000 views and almost 2000 posts on the hx4700 (and that's just one thread) I think there would be a strong interest in a dedicated forum. Many of the posts are from newbies and not by developers but we do have Kozhura and Menneisyys and many other dev types who have posted quite alot about this device in the past, with Kozhura now on his 4th version of WM6. There seems to be a big following for this device even now with a kitchen having been adapted by vivi to suit it. It would be great to have our own corner somewhere on this wonderful site for our community.
Thank you for the consideration.

Great idea!
Based on what I was able to see this had a 2003 rom and came out in 2004.
We have added a lot of forums for the new devices and I am not sure if there will be enough users to justify a section a few years late.

That is true, however HP did do a (poor) WM5 upgrade and there are at least two unofficial WM6 ROMs. The hx4700 was ahead of its time and still powerful compared to many on the market today; probably because it doesn't have an inbuilt phone.
There is this thread which is nearly up to 2,000 posts; many of the smart phone forums on XDA developers have nowhere near as many posts in total.
If there was a forum just for the hx4700, then maybe that would entice other hx4700 owners to join up to talk things other than just the ROMs.
I bet there are a few super users that would be happy to moderate a dedicated kx4700 forum too?
You guys don't give up do you ?
OK I admit you do have a valid point. I will put it forward to the sysadmin for a section under
Other HTC manufactured phones
Thank you
