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.

hi there strangely enoough I have the same problem GPS does not work anymore.. to make it even worse I have flashed a T-Mobile WM5 ROM back and NO GPS and before I had GPS with this ROM, I tried HTC ROM, T-Mobile, DOPOD AND with all NO GPS! this is very weird!
Pocha can you try to flash a WM5 rom back an tell us if your GPS worked again?

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.

Need help : GPS doesn't work

Hi all !
I think this forum is the more appropriated to explain my problem.
I've a Orange M650 and GPS work great until last week. Now, the GPS navigation software doesn't catch any satellite ; but the orange led is blinding.
I tried to flash the phone with the touch rom and I've the same problem.
My parameters are :
GPS program port : COM4
GPS hardware port : (None)
Baud rate : 4800
Manage GPS automatically
This parameters worked great under tomtom but today it won't synchronize at all.
Thank you for your help !

There is a problem with the GPS on M650 after flashing another rom. Search the forums for "M650 GPS". There is a patch somewhere. It worked for me, but i still think it's not 100% ok. Better than nothing.

Hi.
Thank for your answer, but I tried several patches (kulbutor, .cab included into Aje's rom, ...), and the result is worst : led doesn't blind anymore

Try flashing the original rom back, if u can find it. If u register on htc.com e-club you can download a rom with windows mobile 6. Unfortunately my artemis seems to have been bought in Italy, so i got a rom in italian. If all else fails, try an authorized service.
I have attached the cabs I installed over one of meschle's touch 4.01 roms. Use both of them.

I've installed SdkCerts and configured the GPS manually in Tomtom and now it works !
Thank you !!!

Hi, i think you must set gps windows settings first: i set COM4 on "GPS data PORT" and NONE on "hardware GPS port" (with 4800 Bauds)
Than flag the option about the automatic GPS configuration
After, you should try different gps configuration by TOMTOM menu (my current setting is "integrated GPS", and it works"),
but other configuration (like "external GPS") could works.

What is your Artemis?
P3300 or SPV M650?
If it is SPV M650, use the patch called "Kulbutor"

I got a spv M650 myself and never had to do anything

If you've got a SPV M650 and want to keep the A-GPS function with another cook Rom than Aje's Rom, you must do it, no choice
It is available for B&B Rom, Artemis Touch Rom....

Xv6800 Gps

Hi,
I am looking for help on getting the GPS to work.
I followed the instruction on how to unlock the internal GPS and it looks like I did it okay.
When I use Google map (That’s what I have) and go to the option of “use GPS” I get a message: “Initializing GPS” and than Seeking GPS satellites (0).
After few minutes I get a message that could not acquire satellites.
I am outside with clear view.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

Have you upgraded the rom/radio on the phone?

Hi Jray1,
I am new to this.
I followed the instruction on this link.

Thanks for your reply

Im also having gps problems. I have ttn 6 on a htc Athena x7500, upgraded my ROM to michy's r4.0 spl 1.2, gps program port is com4 gps hardware port is (none) baud rate 4800 and WM manages gps automatically, i got the port numbers from this site http://www.tomtom.com/support/solution.php?GID=3&PID=1401&SID=0&CID=223&Language=1&FID=9067

here is the info:
ROM 2.09.605.8
Radio 1.30.60
PRI 1.35_002
Browser MSIE 6.0

Works Perfectly
Are you sure the Location Settings under Phone Settings is NOT set to "911-only"? I did not use the CAB install approach in the Wiki; I just did the manual install as discussed in the original forum at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=424387.
Wingover - looks like your device has not been updated to MR1 ...

the gps crack works, and it's able to detect several satellites using "GPS Viewer" but there's one problem: the coordinates keep changing radically, example it'd be: longitude E 88'16'82'12.1" , lattitude: N 98'9'59'.8" and then it'd change to some weird number like N 176'82'12'45'.4" abd ut dies tgat every second basically. and the direction changes every second to. I'm not moving the phone at all.
HELP!

GPS on XV6800
It seems all the cab files that were once there to help are gone. I am hoping there is someone out there with a quick fix cab file to enable gps on my verizon phone. It has been updated to Windows Mobile 6.1
It shows
R 3.37.75
d 3.57
at boot up.

Hi
same thing for me
cant found gps after flashing orange rom to p3300 original rom with tomtom
com4 window manage gps
how i can resolve problem
br
toze

similar problem
Same problem with me...
I have the rom no_nonsense_5 that was supposed to have the gps problem fixed...
I can find the gps device on the com port number 3 with a nice utility i found on the web thath can scan the ports to find out all the devices connected.
But even if i set the hw port on 3 and the automatic gps control i can't see the gps working.
When I start my tomtom navigator 6 i set it up to find the anema (wtf is that?) gps device on port 3 with 4800 I can see the satellite connection working, but really slowly and uncontinously... (also with another utility called gps test).
I cannot understand if the problem is:
-the rom
-tomtom
-hardware
-radio-rom (can anyone explain me what is the "radio-rom"?? I tryed to find out information but I really couldn't find anything... noob...).
Any suggestion?
Thanks in advance..

Flash with this ROM and you will have GPS again

The radio-rom is a special rom for the hardware of your cellphone, something like a firmware to keep it simple. You can flash a different radio rom that might change the battery drain, the signal quality of the phone, wifi, bluetooth, GPS,... without having to reinstall your 'normal' rom.
There is nothing like a 'best' radio rom. Alot of people have different experiences with the same rom. You just need to go and try for yourself.
