O2 Orbit WM6 & GPS Problems - P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development

Problems with GPS with new update WM6;
I am having problems with my Orbit after upgrading to WM6. The GPS is not recognized TomTom. It does not recognize the internal GPS. It did under WM5 it worked like a charm.
Does anyone else have the same problem?
Does anyone have a link for the original O2 Orbit WM5.
Thanks

Which version of WM6 did you use ?
Which version of TomTom are you using?
For example: I upgraded to the official 02 rom and use tomtom ver 6.030. This is the recommended version of tomtom for the orbit as it allows you to select the internal GPS option
After reinstaling tomtom I found I had to change the gps receiver option via
change preferences/show GPS status/ configure/ select "built-in GPS receiver
Hope that helps. If not, post more details and I'm sure someone can help

TomTom 5.1 and MDAIII

All,
I have a MDAIII flashed with the latest iMate ROM running TomTom 5.1. The problem I have is that while using TomTom 5.1 the application closes by itself and unloads from memory. This is really annoying can anyone tell me why this is happening? I am using a Holux 236 GPSlim Bluetooth.
Thanks
Msuk
Hiya,
The same problem here but with TomTom 5.0...
I flashed my MDA III with the latest iMATE ROM (1.40) and Radio 1.13...
...now TomTom closes itself, when I am trying to change map colours, when trying to zoom in or out on the map or after a minute or so when working with the BT GPS...
ANYONE???
Hi,
I reflashed my phone over the weekend using the iMate 1.40 ROM and then installed TomTom 5.0 upgraded to 5.1 and so far it is running ok - hmm odd.
Thanks
Msuk
maybe be poi
Try disabling POI and see if that helps
Does the patch to 5.1 resolve the lack of on-screen keyboard missing?
I have to resort to using the slide down hardware keyboard and have difficulty getting numbers for postcode input!
Anyone got a solution?
JC
Hi there guys, for all the problems here on tomtom you will find if searched on the forums all your answers, but as for the on-screen keyboard yes 5.1 resolves this, so go ahead and update it!
as for the crashing it is the poi that is doing this, make sure you have installed a good version of TT5 and there is a patch for the poi problem on this forum and on the ftp site. if you search for the poi patch you will definatly find it.
I have TT5 and my MDA III and it works perfectly (touch wood) with my leadtek bluetoth gps reciever on WM 2003, i could'nt for the life of me get it working on WM2005 so i had to downgrade, maybe il upgrade again when it is a bit more stable.
So all you guys, search and destroy the problem!!

Gyus! every body that have problem with the new ROM (1.40) & TT5 I strongly advise to replace the poi.dat file in teh maps directory to this one: ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/Blueangel/TomTom5/poi.dat
It worked for me... no more crashes... :lol:
Spanish POI..?

I just did this and now I have what appears to me Spanish POI on my Tomtom..? Or did I just do it wrong..?
Like a fool, I didn't copy my existing POI and I just overwrote it!
Lesson learnt here folks is to make sure you can get back to where you were!! :lol:
Oh well, I'll fix it tonight when I get home!
POI.DAT ITA !!!
HI GUYS....
HELP ME PLEASE !!!
i have a problem with my qtek 9090 (rom v. 1.40.04 ITA; ext rom v. 1.40.153 ITA; radio rom 1.12.00) and tomtom 5.10. I have installed first tomtom 5.00 and then the upgradeto 5.10. I have installed ITALY PLUS MAP (309mb). In some place the tomtom software disconnect the gps connection and unload itself from memory. I have disabled PDI (POI) and now tomtom in that place doesn't unload itself from memory. But if i want POI function ??? Could I use the POI.DAT file linked in this forum ?? That file is good for my italian
version ??? If not where can I dowload the file POI.DAT for my italian version ???
Thank you so much !!!!
That link for the POI patch doesn't work??
Jupiter
...mate, the file is still there.... try different approach, go to the FTP manualy, then go to Uploads/Blueangel/TomTom5/, & download the POI.DAT file. (I'll try to attach it to this message anyway...)
r_grieco
From what I understood the poi patched file uses existing points of interest of your mashine, but if you'll try to search for some poi you won't be able to find it...
Any how, try it, it might help. Gust make a backup copy of the original POI.DAT file.
Everybody
I've upgraded to 5.10 & all the issues are gone, I have onscreen keyboard + the built in keyboard works absolutely fine & the original POI file works with no problems whatsoever.
P.S.
I use Great Britan maps...
I tried to do the upgrade to 5.10 and it just went on & on forever, I had to do a ctrl+alt+del to stop it!
I'm guessing I may have installed TT5 incorrectly in the first instance despite this, it works fine but no on screen keyboard and Brands Hatch doesn't exist!!!
JC
datasafe
If you want PM me I'll sed you *.CAB files of the upgrade.
I haven't used the PC wizzard to upgrade my TT5 to 5.10, so I don't know if there are any issues with it... ...or I just have a special version... :twisted:
htp
i have tried to get to the ftp site but it never works
Sure there must be a key to this
I tried to download the file but it locked me out and i had to reinstall tomtom 5
if anyone has got 5.1 or knows why i cant get it from ftp would welcome as this keyboard **** is driving me mad
clive
sorted
Sorted, need the 5.1 with patch got it!
I dont know how to post it so if you want to inform i will post it, if not email me
clive
To enyone looking for the "PROPER" upgrade to TomTom 5.10, I have uploaded it to: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=5THJ0DO4
Have Fun :twisted:

Internal GPS doesn't work with German ROM

I have a locked CID P3300, and today I could upgrade to wm6 using a great post in these forums, but when I installed TomTom6 and selected Internal GPS, TomTom indicates that no GPS was found, when I upgraded my device radio and ext rom couldn't be upgrade due upgrade restrictions, maybe this files doesn't upgrade are desabling my Internal GPS?
Thanks
Try to select in TomTom: the other NMEA GPS reciever.
At baudrate 4800 and on COM 4 TomTom is working great for me.

Ok I hope yours will work again after the WM5 downgrade! mine did not unfortunatly! but it can also be bad luck and my chip just did and it has nothing to do with upgrading..
If you need any rom please feel free to contact me..
I had some trouble with the rom also, GPS, WIFI..
I have a Dutch MDA III C originaly..
I got everything working by flashing is like so:
WM5 UK tmo -> WM6 O2 German. Stop at screen settings at first run of german rom -> Run WWE rom, complete install. -> Install Cert_SPCS and EnableRapi TO Internal storage, run Dutch WM6 rom..
Now got WIFI and GPS working..
Any other way of flashing get me stuck at boot or without GPS, WIFI or BT..
Camera works fine, speed is ok.. Seems faster then WM5.. But time will tell..
Thumbs up to the the maker of WWE and Dutch rom..

I have a MDA Compact III to, but the strange thing is that when I install the UK T-mobile rom and then try Tomtom it still does not detect a GPS device as it used to do! it always worked on the T-mobile rom and now all of a sudden it stopped working..
Downgrade finished right, now I have again wm5 and my TomTom works fine again, uffff !!!
I reviewed GPS Settings:
GPS program port: COM4
GPS hardware port: (None) Baud rate: 4800
Yes Manage GPS automatically.
This weekend I will try again to upgrade to wm6, and I will use this settings to check if GPS works fine...
Device Info:
ROM Version: 1.12.405.1 WWE
ROM Date: 9/12/06
Radio version: 02.67.90
Protocl version: 4.1.13.28
ExtRom version: 1.12.412.101
I used HTC_1.12.405.01_026790_WWE_SHIP to do the downgrade
I have the same problem, my GPS doesn't work any more, with NO GPS app! I have a German HTC and flashed the German O2 image. Downgrading is kinda difficult, didn't work. Does anyone have a German WM5 Rom? I'd rather put the old one back on there until a working GPS enabled version is out.

Wierd, do you have the original Tomtom shiped with the HTC?? I have a install cd from t-mobile, works fine if I flash from art_tmouk_11311001_024990_wwe_ship to German O2 to Dutch custom.. Any other way of flashing then wifi, BT and GPS don't work on my device..
Did you installed some GPS app such us GPS viewer, or a navigation program such us TomTom?, because in WM6 Dutch Rom by bepe you will find in system sheet an icon called External GPS, there try to use the settings that I wrote in last post, and then use some GPS program to verify if GPS works or not...
Good Luck
My GPS is working after a soft reset, I think I messed up something with the ports, I use GPS Gate. Now everything is ok!!!
I have upgraded my HTC P3300 CID-Locked to WM6 and GPS, WiFi and Bluetooth are all working nicely. I am using iGO GPS application as well as several others.
Please tell us, wich wm6 did you used?, when I upgraded my HTC-P3300, I used WM6 Rom by bepe, but since my HTC is CID-Locked I only could upgrade OS using a post in these forums which talk about that... btw this weekend I will try again to upgrade to wm6 and then I will use GPS settings that I post before, and this time I will install those CAB (rapi and other CAB file which appears in procedure)
Check out my blog post of upgrading to WM6.
Hope it will be usefull.

No sound with TOM TOM

To all, I`ve just updated my Artemis with WM6, now I`ve the following problem. When the Artemis is connected via bluetooth with my car handsfree unit, there is no sound output form Tom Tom. If I swich of the bluetooth connection ist works. But that can`t be the solution, because with WM5 it was working.
Thank`s for your help
Did you have the BTAudio installed to get this working prior to the upgrade to WM6? - Mike

I have a m700 and tomtom just auto detects the internal gps.
when I go to the gps config it says internal gps. there's no baud rate or port to configure.
I'm guessing you have the wrong radio rom or are bypassing some tomtom auto-config.
Try reinstaling the latest radio and tomtom
thank you for your reply, have tried several radio roms and still no go
try original htc rom...
