hi can any one tell me which port the gps is on ,,i removed tom tom BC it dosen't have maps for the place im in ,,i want to use navigon 5 but when i put auto detect it can't fine it i tryed manul,, but didnt work,, any help plzzz...thx
GPS port is set to COM4 by default.
I hope that this helps.
I can get iGuidance 3.0 to recognize it on COM 4 with the automatic GPS management turned on... HOWEVER, the GPS positions are not recieved and it cannot get a fix.
Tom Tom works okay, but I'd rather use iGuidance.
Adam, when in TT tap the sat strength meter, when the unit is displaying the sat strength/ status page is it giving the individual sat numbers and signal strength? I apreciate this app is working I just want an answer to that question before trying the next idea - Mike

Yes, the GPS Status page in the included TomTom software does show the sat numbers/signal strength in addition to their relative location.
When starting TomTom at first it says "No GPS detected" then after a couple seconds it says "Waiting for a valid GPS signal.." I'm not sure if that means there's something hard coded into this TomTom versions that actually turns the GPS receiver on.
What's your next idea?
I live in Colorado and received my P3300 yesterday. I can't seem to download my free map for some reason. When I get into PIE from the TomTom app, and select the state and press Next I get the following error message pop up:
“The page you are looking for cannot be found due to unknown error 0x80072f78.”
Anyone have any idea why this would be happening? I love this device outside of this issue.

I wish I could get it to work; I've tried countless times in the past 48 hours with no luck when choosing any state in the US. Same error message.
I am running Navigon 5 with success, but the app is slow overall. Anyone get Mapopolis to run on this device? I tried yesterday with COM 4; it was trying hard to get a fix, but it wouldn't go for me with the latest version.
Btw,
Do ya guys know if MapKing will work on the device?
I'm kinda new to GPS, and wondering how in-built GPS systems will work with any softwares. Thanks
I've tried the TomTom software and it works well with this device. Microsoft pocket streets worked, but didnt seem to work well. Going to try Iguidance and see if that is any good.

Has anyone gotten this to work with Iguidance 3.0, for some reason iguidance will not work with the artemis gps. If you have it working, what did you have to do to get it to work?
HTC P3300 GPS port
I had a O2 orbit xba and I loaded the Navigator 5 but having problem detecting GPS receiver...can anyone help?? I set the GPS to COM4 but still cannot work. What is the setting for GPS for Navigator 5?
I know on my HTC P3300, I have troubles getting a signal so I am came to the conclusion that I am going to need an external antenna because the built in one isn't that great.

The solution to this program is as follows:
Run regedit in your HOST computer and navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services, Add a DWORD setting "AllowLSP" with value set to 0

You have to be connected to internet before you start TT and download free maps... fastest way is thru WiFi. You can also use activesync to get connected to internet.
Any one figured this out yet?
Basically the tomtom calculates the device code (I thought this was via imei)
Well since installing black 2 I can not longer use tomtom plus services (speed cams traffic e.t.c)
I can change the device code on there website once every 6 months BUT if the same thing happens with black 3 then It wont work, there is a similar thread I have replied to on the upgrades forum which may be a clue as they had the problem with CID unlocking, my device has had all that dont about 6 months ago many roms and "device names" later (one actual device) it now has it thinking its a new device.
I am guessing this is going to happen with a few other bits of software from what I have read in the searches (opera and a few other similar bits of software).
Why would this happen with these latest wm6 roms not previous wm6 roms.
My main worry is if this happens randomly with every new rom, and Im guessing this may not be isolated to this batch of roms.
Similar thread which may give a clue but thought this was more suited to the wm6 forum after I posted :/ lol

I'm pretty sure that isn't what he is referring to.
It's a unique string that identifies your device.
For example;
With AEButtons and WM5, I had a Device ID that started with D1 C3.... and then moving to WM6 it changed to something like C6 A2...
I was able to activate AEB just fine, it just shows that I have activated 2 devices at AEB's website activation page.

I opened a call at Tomtom for that. I have the same problem. I asked to have a solution of a code based on the hardware and not on the operating system.
The answer: impossible. I must indicate the link of new the ROM and they correct the code.… I did not test yet…
I've run into the same situation with TomTom. It's a bit of a pain. Still working through the issues with them.

I think the API to get the device's IMEI got broken in the latest WM6 builds. I too have the TomTom license problem, and Opera Browser for Mobile is also complaining that the device ID has changed. Prior to upgrading WM6 (LVSW 20070423), Opera Browser would read the IMEI (device ID) correctly. After upgrading, it now reads a completely different number (not even remotely close, for one thing, it is two digits shorter). However, when I look at the IMEI shown in "Device Information", or #*06# from the phone dialpad, it is correct.
In both my cases (TomTom and Opera), I was quickly able to get new license keys from each, but it is still a pain.
WTF, M$ & HTC???

Same happened to me with the Hebrew add on. Strange.
Had the same wit Hebrew as well...
Yup, same problem here, I'm with Berdinkerdickle, there is a hex code that you can see with AEB Plus's registration screen that comes from the OS I guess. It changed from stock WM5 to Black 2.0 and now again with 2.5
Slingbox Mobile seems to use it internally to lock it to an individual device. The prog actually logs onto the sling site each time you use it and checks this number against the issued key code, this is independant of user inputted ID name like most progs. If there is a mismatch the program tells you that you have 30 days remaining and counts down till you enter a new code provided by Sling, which means an email conversation with them each time to get a new code.
AEB Plus as noted, shows you the internal code string and has you enter that string into their website to get an activation code. (I'm on my 3rd web re-activation and wondering if AEB has a max cut off number?)
I looked over the thread referenced on the first post and it mentions super CID, I've not done that to mine yet.
The device code is a hex string listed as 7 pairs of numbers in AEB Plus (xx xx xx xx xx xx xx) is this the CID code?? and if it is, is it linked to the OS, uniquely by device?? That doesn't make sense to me.
Same problem for me, with SlingPlayer and a few other applications. Ugh. Every time I put a new ROM on there, the device ID or whatever they're using changes. They must think I'm trying to equip an army with Slingplayer licenses.

I had it with a few apps as well. With Slingbox they indicated that it's not a problem at all since once they issue a new code, the old one is invalidated. They don't really care.

The irony is that people who didn't pay for these applications have zero problems..
Copy protection doesn't hurt anyone but the legitimate people..
The worst part is, I can't even suggest that you (the legitimate purchaser) use the keygen floating around give yourself access to your product.. because that would cut you off from your online services..

Same problem with my TomTom, does the new Black 3.0.1 solve this issue?
Black 3.0.1 goes back to the same hardware ID that was around in Black 1.0 and Black 2.0. So.. I guess it's fixed? It seems like there was a build of WM6 out there that really screwed with things -- because all of the other ROM's had the same problem.

I didn't check Black 1 or Black 2, was the ID the same as WM5 with these versions of WM6? It was only a fault in roms v2.5?
Hi I've got a BlackStone but I can't make the GPS go right!
Which COM should I choose, Which rate? 4800? and in which place: Software or Hardware?
Finally what's the config for googleMaps?

try com 4, rate 9600.
Forgive me if I understood your problem wrongly. While the HD has built-in GPS it is not supplied with any software or app associated with it for navigating or even for displaying coordinates or compass navigation.
Once you download the Google Maps (which also supports, for some countries the street map display) application onto your device, it will make use of the GPS and show you your position, with moving map display as you drive, quite smoothly and accurately. It will also show your approximate position indoors without GPS (using A-GPS and the cell site ID supporting LBS).
For point to point navigation and voice prompts guess one has to use 3rd party app like Garmin XT, TomTom; but I have not used these.

yes but in the software or in the hardware field?
You need to state what software you are using. If its Google maps just let Windows manage the GPS.
Why doesn't the GPS Photo work. It says that GPS is not active or something. What's up with that?

Thank you, but it doesn't work so!!! What's wrong???
I had the same problem, no one can't help me. Any gps software I used couldn`t find gps reciver, I've tried any combinations with COM ports....nothing. After 1 month and about 10 gps software I removed SIM card....and BINGO!!!! My old SIM card generate problem that nothing can find built-in gps reciver in my Touch HD. Try without SIM card and if it works go to operator and replace to new SIM card
Endow
Not at all
Sorry about this, but your tips does'nt help me:
I removed the SIMcard but the GPS in GOOGLEMAP didn't work anyway!
I tried to let it be managed by windows and to set it on COM4 with 9600bauds but no options succeded!
I can't understand what's wrong!!!
Another thing
Furthermore, when I set up the GPS-params in the params-application of windows mobile 6, the hard port (COM4) I chose isn't recorded by the software!!!
Maybe it's a hint for the answer?
Help me, geeks of HTC!
go to google and download the lastest ver. google map.
try to go to a window or a open space and turn on the google map. press option and try to click use gps , and see any reading on the top right of the map screen.
dont need to adjust any com 4,5,6 things.
once you got a lock on gps. you can close the google map and start to look out for third party nav software. try it.
Mine works perfectly fast at
COM: 4
BAUD: 57600
Im using iGuidance 2009
does ur phone need to go online when activating the gps? my car's gps doesnt need online yet the device can detect its location. however when i use google map, the phone just went online and try to search for my location. not too ideal as i have to pay for every kb sent/recieved.
Ooo
Maybe I will try to refresh the GPRSSettings with the soft designed for it!
I will reply when I'll know further about it...
Mine shows correct location when I set port - Com4 and BAUD: 57600 on Google maps for just a second. Then it jumps to some other continent and says GPS not available and shows the help dialog. Allowing windows to manage gps also gives same results what am i doing wrong?? or is it a limitation of blackstone/google maps app..
Reply
I've tryed what you done but it didn't succeded!
In the GMaps List I see: "COM4:" and there is nothing after the ":" !
When I confirm this update, the soft tell me that he can't found a device on this COM!!!
ok, my settings, com4, bd 4800, let windows manage (which kinda negates any settings before hand) Google maps set to let windows manage. My GPS locks well and always finds plenty of satalites, so i dont understand why you guys are having problems.
Howver, on my polaris with cooked rom, my google maps does misbeahve sometimes when the gps is locked and the map will suddenly say im in hong kong when im in the uk!! (i even unistalled google that was included in rom and downloaded new version from google)
So i believe in my limited wisdom that its probably a rom issue (radio more likely).
What i do have to decide is if the official 1.56 rom is worth flashing or not (still on 1.14)
What you guys think?
Reply
I'm not sure to understand you because I come from Switzerland and I main speek French.
YOu think that it is a ROM version's problem? Which one should I install? (and how to do it ?)
Thanks so much!
P.S.: I don't have changed any ROM or Radio Version in this HTC Touch HD!
I have never fiddled with ROM but I have same issue. google maps jumps continent!! momentarily despite 7 satellites. May be an issue with Google maps itself??

Hi,
I signed up a touch HD with orange UK yesterday. The first thing I did was to install TOMTOM on the machine. However, TOMTOM kept reporting no GPS device. If it finds the internal GPS receiver, then it is 20 minutes later. One thing I notice is that when TOMTOM is looking for the GPS receiver, there is something trying to connect to the internet.
I am sure I did everthing right as I was using this copy of tomtom on the touch diamond and it worked like a treat.
Did orange do anything to the GPS so people can only use their stupid orange map? If they did, is there any way that I can get the tomtom working?
Many thanks in advance.
Thank you for all your advice and the problem has been solved. Here are a few tips for people who have the same problem.
1. A-GPS can only make things worse, switch it off.
2. Update your quick-GPS data.
3. It seems that tomtom struggles to find GPS device on certain orange handset. If you are the unlucky one, try change your hand set with orange. If you don’t want to go through the trouble, open google map to locate satellite before open tomtom.
4. Debrand the handset.
5. Orange’s customer service is crap, stay away if you can
Have you tried updating QuickGPS in the programmes.
Also check A-GPS is disabled in windows settings.

Thanks, I have updated the quickGPS the first thing. I have the a-gps enabled, though it could help to locate the satallite.
I think it is recomended to be disabled.
Perhaps try it if you have not.
GPS always worked fine for me with the stock Orange ROM, that was with 1.14 though, I think they come with 1.19 now, it also works fine with all of the cooked ROMs I've tested. Perhaps the version of TomTom you have isn't fully compatible with the HD (I did notice you said it worked on the Diamond, but perhaps there's a hardware/software difference on the HD which stops it working.

Hi Guys, Thank you for your reply.
For you who is using tomtom, which version are you using? I am using 7.48
Thanks all for your help. Disable A-GPS seems hlep a lot. I will try again today.
By the way, UK orange's customer service is what I call crap. I called them about the GPS last night and a idiot tell me that as far as I can make phone calls, my phone is fine.

Don’t blame them, that is way we are here.
My tomtom version is 7.915.9196, with latest UK and Ireland map v830.2307
but unfortunately it doesn’t support 7 point postcode system just accept 4 digit post code and in order to find the address you actually need to know name of the street as well. But I have iGO with 7PPC which it is fantastic.

thanks for telling me.
ok now for everyone which already had tomtom without 7 digit postcode, do as I listed here:
01- Downloaded the file
www.tomtom.com/updates/great_britainpostal_all.zip
02- copy it into new folder (folder's name doesn't matter)
03- extract it.
04- click on setup.exe
05- choose "i agree" then click next.
06- choose Pocket PC (Windows CE)
07- choose install Tom Tom Great Britin Postcode then click next.
08- choose other location (Advanced)
09- choose Folder on the computer
10- select any folder you want
the software will generate a zip folder
after getting the zip folder move it to your SD card's Root
start TOM TOM you will be able to do a full 7 digit postcode search.

it shouldn't be like that, when I had Stock ROM on my HD I used to had similar problem beside long waiting time before tomtom finds signal (about 15 ~ 20s) but after flashing HD with Custom ROM every problem is gone, now it finds signal in less than 5 second

Exactly what I was going to say.. I had the same problem with mine running 7.9something. If you run google maps in the backgroungd it almost jump started the gps. I have also found that once you get a gps signal it seems to keep it easier..... dunno if thats just hopeful. Oh yes and I am on Orange too stock rom.

Hey Gang,
I'm from India & bought x1 2 weeks back. Installed Garmin xt on x1.. tried using it..thought it shows everything POI, every time I click GO TO a particular place... it always come with "AWAITING BETTER GPS ACCURACY".
Do anyone know, If it can be resolved!!!
Thanks IN advance!
Sachin Ghai
click on the signal bars at the top left corner of the main page, then GPS info. Do you see your coordinates or do you see "acquiring satellites"? I only get the "awaiting better gps accuracy" when theres no satellite lock.
look at sky if ther are clouds it makes GPS hard to work.
but my X1's GPS works great and fast
but my GARMIN has 1 mistake
when I'm riding to my car and car shovs speed about 80km/h Garmin shows me about 60km/h
but on the map all streets and cordinates are very corect
Hi there,
There are still several issues in GarminXT on a windows phone! I always used garmin before i tryed tomtom and several others. at first i didn't like tomtom, but it doesn't have any problem with anything! it's alot faster and more reliable! I think you must try tomtom version 7.916. this is the latest

Hey there. I have Garmine xt too, and it didn't came with California, Oregon or other big states are missing... is this normal? i bought used one from this owner and doesn't come with the states that i travel most!! i was like wtf... even California was not in there. If this is what Garmin Xt offers, i'm changing it to tomtom or other gps systesm for my x1!! hmmp!
You install it? Or you pay for it?
To be able to "see" satelites from this app, you must register it
I'm using Garmin in my X1 for quite long time without problems.

click on the signal bars at the top left corner of the main page, then GPS info. Do you see your coordinates or do you see "acquiring satellites"? I only get the "awaiting better gps accuracy" when theres no satellite lock.

I tried doing so & it cums back saying "acquiring satellites". I kept it looking for that info for about half an hour, but to no avail.

This is not normal with Garmin. The map is just not complete. you can use Garmin City Navigator to update the maps. Other option is to look for a map for North America witch is activated already.
Good luck with it!!!!!!

You may use and SEX1_HTC_GPS_tooll too.
I am not shure if is it allowed on this forum to talk about warez...?
Anyway, you have to find keygen with instructions (it is tricky to do it but can be done).
Untill you got registered version of Garmin app with map on your device you will not "see" satellites. Also, when you all done with registration and all that, go outside and do some "where to" route and wait to find satellites for first time...it takes for minute or two (with QuickGPS installed and updated).
