Hi!
I was searching on that forum for the solution but i couldn't find it :/
(maybe i search by wrong word i don't know)
I start from the begining
I have HTC P3300, i upgrade new ROM (Artemis Touch Rom WWE WM6.1 4.02) and when i searching my htc i see a function called "photo gps".
i tought "oh... nice function, i try it"
so i go to camera, turn it on and take a picture.
and now is problem.
I know that the picture save in folder My POI. But everyone says that thay have some log when thay have cordinats from gps.
but i haven't it
i know that i must go to reg and change reg "enable" and i did it.
But it still doesn't work
If anyone know how to do did i will be thankful.
P.S sry for my english if i do some mistakes
Hi.
If it is enabled in camera functions then you should be able to use it.
I have used it long time ago using original t-mobile rom with changed registry and had no problem with it.
You probably have to wait for GPS to locate your position.
Good luck
ok but where i get log of position where i did that photo??
and in which program i can see that position?
and one more thing:
i need to use storage memory or pocket memory??
I believe the log itself is within the picture. So a program that recognises that should solve your problem. Picasa may do the trick. You should be able to store it where ever you want, I don't think that should make a difference as the location is stored within the picture itself.
Google geotag, wikipedia page tells quite a bit
Good luck
he he i'm not a child and first what if done i go and search in google.
and i saw in google 2 different opinion about memory so why i ask.
Sorry if I caused offence, didn't mean to say anything bad.
I must have used the ppc memory for picture, but the positioning wasn't precise, it was a bit off on google earth. So I corrected it using google earth itself.
sorry just wanted to help when I saw no replies to your message.
I am no way professional, just used it in the past and thought I may be of help.
no problem for me
thx for help.
maybe if someone else know the another solutin i'll be thankful
ok I fix one problem.
no i understand that i have no message that gps is not turn on.
and when i change memory storage to memory device then quite camera then turn it again on and when show me choise between memory storage and memory device i selected memory storage and then i have initializing GPS
but i don't solve the problem with coordinate.
ech... i hope there are somewhere
Hi,
The coordinates are stored "in" the photo, there is no seperate log file that I know about. To access them you need software that can extract this metadata from the photo.
I know you can see it with Adobe Photoshop Elements (right click on the photo and select "Properties" from the organiser). I also know that windows XP dosn't list the coordinates if you right click and look at the properties. There are some other programs that will show it, try googling for "exif viewer". I would guess that Google Earth etc. would know how to get at the coordinates as well.
Hope this helps.
Garry
If you've got an apple mac, just read the image properties and you'll get the position of your photo
On PC, you should find an additional software.
On both mac and PC, you can send your photo to picasa web album (by google) and so photos wil be presented on a worldwide map. That is great

My fourth message of the day ... I'm inspired !!!
I'm one of a little runners and cyclers group whose want evolve in my sport and use new technology to practice sports.
3 of our have baught and HTC trinity to have an all in one solution : GSM, music player and GPS.
We have test a lot of offroad program, gps tuner,beegps,nimo,noni,... and we are not satisfacted about them... We have ideas which the best program must have but we are so poor programers to do it.
So I would like to know if some of best programers of this forum could make it for us ?
Are you interested ?
We could send you all of ours ideas, with explained pictures ...

Bike GPS
I have a Dopod D810 and I am developing a GPS application for it, mainly because nothing I tried out there did everything I wanted, and was suitable for use on a bike.
My app is a
- Raster-based GPS application
- Music Player
- Phone 'answerer'
- Text message display
- Big buttons (so you can press them while riding)
- Good reliability
I initially developed it for my Dell Axim X51v.
It supports importing/exporting routes and tracks to and from GPX and KML files, and can do playback of tracks. (ie it works with Google Maps/Earth routes and tracks)
It supports importing locations from names files.
It supports maps in TFW, SDW, JPG and BSB formats.
Any music files supported by windows media player are supported.
If you have any maps in one of the above format, this is for you!
wahou !
it's look like what i'm looking for ... without pearhaps a graph which expose speed and altitude during the trip... but i'm so interested ! what is the programation language use ? could you send me sources ?if you want, I can send you some draws to complet with option your soft ?
Its done in C++; sorry, I'm not going to release the source, but I'm happy to get any ideas you have.
oh, I forgot, there's a PC version off the same code base which makes it easier to see playback, build routes, etc. I'll add some speed/altitude/time graphs to it over the weekend some time if I get a chance.
I'll also eventually put the installers on my web site.
ok... it's not a problem that you don't release source... just ... could you send me just how you get speed, altitude and position ... you dialogue with the P3600 GPS... is there library or only code lines ?
My idea...
-make a rotation of your cards in function your deplacement like tomtom.
-on my soft, i would like record precedent trip to do versus when I take the same road. This versus could compare KM all long the time and bip me when i'm late.
-the graph which compare my speed and variation of altitude all long my trip
-instant speed/speed trip/time/km
Initially, I used the GPS API in the microsoft SDK, but its not reliable enough (sometimes it stops signalling updates on its event), so I wrote my own from scratch and the NMEA documentation.
- Sorry, I'm not familiar with tomtom, so I'm not sure what your after with your first request.
- Its not exactly easy to track a previously taken path and map it to the current path, but it could be done. The biggest problem is storage of your previous paths. I have about 24GB of old tracks saved! I'm waiting for an 8GB mini SD !
I'll have a look into the idea though.
- Displaying (and even graphing) current speed/time/altitude, ect are trivial and I already do that. I'll look into graphing.
Is anyone else interested in this app?
I would be interested in this for cycling and hiking.
Sorry for this question but why don't you let members of this forum download sources of your GPS API ? Or directly the API compiled to let other programing theirs applications if it is better than windows API ?
For my application I need only to know :
- Altitude
- trip point (x,y)
- how to solve to have speed (v=D/t)
Have you seen http://gpsdash.com/news.php
I'm always looking for more choice...here is one that many of my sport crazed friends are using. I may start using it for tracking my motorcycle rides too. Here is the software http://www.rungps.net/Wiki.jsp?page=HomeEN . Here is the online tracking server http://www.gps-sport.net/index.jsp .
The reason I'm not releasing source is because I may, at some time in the future, make this into a commercial product and I don't want to ruin my chances with that.
The other is that I don't really think it is of much benefit to most people to release source for an application. I think it is far more useful to make a library of the useful functionality, with a well documented API of the thing, so that people can start at a higher level to implement their ideas. Since I don't yet have such a library, I can't release that either .
I went riding on the weekend (its nice and sunny here), so I didn't get any more done on this.
From other people's responses, it looks like there's plenty to choose from anyway.
Once again, Yannn, there is documentation in the Microsoft SDK on how to access the gps (its called gpsapi).
Finally
I have finally decided to release an early version of this software.
Its at
http://www.lukepaton.com/BikeGPS/
If you are able to set things up for yourself, and want to give it a try, go ahead. I haven't got a huge amount of time to support it, so it might take some playing around to get it working, particularly at first. There isn't a manual or help for it, so go looking through all the menus and see what you can find!
To get started, from the View menu, have a look at settings, and set up your paths and then from the Map|File menu, choose, Re-Read All Maps.
Cheers,
Luke
Hi Luke
Thanks for the release. On first run, I got the message:
"Open File \CF Card\Data\BikeGPSMaps.mdt failed"
When I hit OK it closes. I made this directory path and chucked a .jpg in it and then it ran.
I see in Settings>Paths your default project is pointing to your compact flash card so I changed these to \Storage Card\...\
I have had a good look through the menus, it seems to be a pretty nice useful kit. I like the .sid support and export to .csv, even converts from OziExplorer Probably wouldn't use the player or sms fuctionality though.
Logged some data to the .gps_log file, will try and use it later.
Just can't see where to open map image. When I click open map it doesn't have anything in the list to select... No need to bother yourself with a full user manual, but it would be good to load a map background.
Sorry, I first developed it for a Dell Axim, and an iPaq before that. They have CF Cards...
To get it to have some maps to open, Map|File|Re read all maps looks in the map path (Settings|Paths|Map Path) (Mine is \Storage Card\Maps\).
It prompts you for the kind of files to load (KAP, TIF, SID, MAP).
Yes, MAP is from Oziexplorer - some of the map CDs I bought used MAP files, but the code to interpret map files is a bit of a mess, and it doesn't support oziexplorer ozf files...
After that, Map|File|Open Map|All Maps should give you something to open.
You have to select a single map (multiple selection is for delete).
Anyway, its good to see that someone could even get the thing installed
Cannot access menu, progrram will stop after prompt of missing file, it is not installed in memory card/data either. Also shortcut is missing.
Hi Fimae,
I used resco to add a shortcut, but the install program is supposed to put it in 'programs'.
Not sure what you mean by 'cant access menu'. There are about 7 menus, not including popups. Is the main menu visible?
See above about storage card. I'll make it allow you to browse for the storage card the first time it runs.
Thanks for your feedback.
Luke
Now I'm all motivated
I've done an update which should make it easier to work out whats going on when first installing. It will prompt for the path to your files.
At the first prompt, enter /Storage Card/, or wherever your storage will be.
It automatically creates Data/ and Maps/, so put your maps under /Storage Card/Maps/.
The web page now displays the last version and update date.
what about the mount ???
Hi, plz tell me if ur using any good cycle mount to hold trinity securely on the handle bar? where & how much u bought it for??? Anyone???
After trying Arkon mounts and a few cheapies, I found the best was a metal case,
(like this http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Metal-Hard-C...yZ150774QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem) attached using double sided tape and a cable tie!
The problem with the Arkon-style mount is that they don't hold the device securely enough and are too bulky.

I ment that program stops to error dialog, and when i click it ok, application exits without seeing any menus. But now it worked wery well after writing \Storage Card\, thank you wery much.
I know this must be stupid question (like where is the any key) but i really does not understand what kind of form i have to use to copy maps to Bike gps? I have route66 and tomtom navigator maps (and for testing only miomap) in my storage card, i supposed that i cannot use map files from those apps?
New MS live search with voice recognition is out, pretty sweet app (and its free) did not see it on here (used search)
http://www.livesearchmobile.com/windows_mobile.htm
looks nice BUT only available for USA and UK.
Waiting for french version.
thanks. Looks good. Graphics seem sharper as well
Nice App using it right now
Wow, this looks cewl!
btw, here's the cab if anyone's interested.
used it eariler..works great now time to use a gps bluetooth to get the real action going
bluetooth gps earthmate gps bt-20 works flawless with this.
will it install over existing rom live search? my old live search is in hemi's wm6.

Installed this new Live Search cab,no longer can use Live Search on Today screen
Yes the program works well after installation, but now I have lost the capability of searching from my Today screen Windows Live Search. Any hints at what I should do to fix? What ever I put in to the space for search, it comes back with a window " The file http://mobilelive.com/search etc etc" cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file".Never did use my Live Search on Today screen much , but now it bothers me not having it work. If I am not mistaken, it certainly didn't do the same type of searches that this new version is capable of doing. Can't remember whether it was configured to use Google search or not.. Anyways, somehow the installation buggered things up. Any ideas, I would be greatful for any recommendations. I did do SR, and even uninstalled the New cab, but ended up in a worse scenario, because I couldn't get my old version to work anymore. Looking for the string to change the Search URL to Google. I used to see it all the time, now I can't find it. Thought I would change the Search URL in Schaps Advanced config tool.
Just tried changing the Search string to use Google in regedit, and that did not help. Still can't do a Live search using Today screen search, or when I go to WLM using the search there. Anyone else experiencing this?
I have had no problems with mine. I installed the cab from the web site over the existing Live Search and it works great. I use live search , not Google so maybe that could be a problem. It almost sounds like the registry is messed up. I would reinstall the rom and then install live search again if you are going to use it.
Pre existing Live Search incorporated in WLM before this new one
I had WLM previous to overlaying this separate cab, so I didn't overlay on to a separate ,existing Live Search stand alone program.. Maybe this is why it didn't merge correctly into the WLM . I suppose that if I would have either deleted a previous separate Live Cab only and installed the new one , that might have made the difference.. Thanks

The "Search" Today plug in is from Windows Live. (Pocket MSN replacement) Which is not the same as Live Search. Live Search can be download here from your phone: http://wls.live.com/ Look in your programs folder and see if you still have "Windows Live". If so launch it and go to menu /options / Today Screen options.
Thanks Gwelker62
Thanks for straightening me out on the differences. Hopefully helpful to others.
thanks! for those that haven't installed it or clicked the link to look at new features, besides voice recognition it also added gas prices. I haven't actually driven around to verify if they are accurate or not, but at first glance they seem pretty close
thank you so much for the heads up! the voice recognition is slick, but the new gas prices option is even better!
loving the voice recognition... you can just say the name of the place you're looking for and it'll find it.
One question on the BT GPS, will it have step by step navigation if you have a BT GPS? or does it only shows your location?
Gonna have some fun with this methinks...
And by the looks of things its gonna thrape my bandwidth allowance with Orange...
Edit: switching to aerial and zooming into my house I did 2mbyte of data in like a couple of minutes.
Edit2: Does HSDPA downloads use more battery than 3G downloads? I assume they use the same aerial, but does HSDPA use more power transmitting and receiving? I know 3G uses more than GPRS.
can't get voice recognition working here?
have I read somewhere it is a u.s only feature?
anyone in the u.k got it working?the box is greyed out on my app.
live search and gps
i just downloaded and installed the new voice recognition version of live search and paired it with my bluetooth solar gps logger and it works perfectly
to sush1a, you can do both, turn by turn directions, or it can show your location and show you (if you follow the blue line) where to go.
Hi folks,
The rom (Artemis touch 4.0.2) that I have flashed my 3300 is fantastic except for the fact that it doesn't have the letter recognizer as an sip option.
I've searched for a letter recognizer cab and the only links that seem to be the following cabs:
-myprogram.cab (which is supposed to be only for the trinity)
-enableRecognizersNL.CAB
-SIPChange.CAB
-enablerecognizerswwe.cab
All they seem to do is change the registry to default it to the letter recognizer, but it seems that this rom doesn't have it installed at all.
This thread points to this thread which is dead.
I have really gotten used to the letter recognizer.
IMO it is faster and less processor dependant than the transcriber.
Is there an easy way to install this functionality?
Thanks
Laudanum
Nevermind
I ran enablerecognizerswwe.cab again. It seems to have done it.
I'm going to attach the cab so people can find it easier than I did.
sorry folks,
laudanum
+1 Thanks!
Odd that it needs two installs, but it works which is the main thing.
Gone after soft-reset...will keep trying.
Edit:Selectable via QuickMenu (rom is using HTC Touch Input & Swype which stops it appearing in the normal selection for some reason).
Anyone an idea how to save the manilla-player its playlists?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Haven't played with the player, I tend to use core player or TCPMP for music. I assume the playlist is kept on soft-reset thus stored somewhere. Try searching for keywords which are in the file names perhaps. Flashing my rom at the moment, but will have a look when I get chance.
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\Music\current_playlist_name refers to the name of the selected playlist
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\Music\current_playlist gives it an id number i.e. ID1965180
So far unable to find the playlist name or id anywhere else.
Edit: Found it! The playlists are contained within the file below:
Application Data\HTC\AudioManager_Eng\AudioManager_Eng
You can try saving this file and restoring it on a new rom (but you may face issues with different versions of manila). However, perhaps try placing .m3u playlists within the "playlists" folder you never know it may read those too.
Hi all,
Really simple question, how do I tag a photo that I've just taken with the camera? I can view it, crop it, share even change its name through the "view details" but I can't see any way to tag it. All I want to do is tag photos the same way you can in Windows Vista or 7 so that I can do it there and then on my phone and I don't have to do it for loads of photos at once when I transfer them to my computer.
I've searched these forums and the web but unfortunately most of the results I'm getting are useless. E.g. When I search for "android photo tag" I get stuff about geo tagging, facebook tagging and mainly any sites to do with Android that use a tag system.
I'm hoping I'm just being a dumbass and someone can say "you just do ..." or "get the app called ..." from the market.
Thanks for your help in advance ;-)
I'm sorry, I'm not getting what you mean by "tagging" your photos. Do you mean by giving then extra data via tags, for example "party" or "picnic" etc?
Yep, that's exactly what I mean. Names, places and so on. Then when the photos are transferred to my computer I can find all photos with the dog in by searching for "Koopa".
The only app I can locate that claims to do this is Two Click Photo Register.
I installed Two Click Photo Register but it just force closes every time I try to run it.
I'm really surprised that Android doesn't have native functionality for this as its something I've been doing on a computer for years.
Anyone else got any ideas?
The exif standard thing does have a 'Tag' field I think, its just a matter of fidning or writing an app which can read/write to this field.
I'm pretty sure you're right about it being standard data within the exif and as it happens I am a software developer but I've never written anything for Android before.
Still amazed that this hasn't already been done. If I get some spare time I might have a go myself if Android 2.2 doesn't include it when that comes out cos they are supposed to have made some camera software improvements.
Thanks guys.

To be fair...it's a phone. Why do you expect it to have functionality in complete parity with your desktop computer? I've never seen a camera that did what you're asking and their only function is pictures!
I'm sure someone will one day create a less buggy app to do it, but it's not really an expectation in cameras so it's no surprise this feature isn't in there.
I hear what you're saying with "its a phone" but given that you can do all the social networking stuff with photos just by clicking a button I figured something arguably simpler like tagging would be in there.
It can tag the gps location, the date taken and numerous camera values, that's enough for its purpose I think. But if you're desperate, I can't see it being hard to write something to do it. Might make a good first android project for you.
Hi there,
I recently installed a program on my IQ called "QMail". In setting it up, all the documentation says to start by clicking on the "Tools" menu. The problem is, I can't see any tools menu, and I have a feeling it may be blocked by the Windows taskbar, which is at the bottom of the screen in the Dragonstorm roms.
Is there any way to temporarily move the taskbar/start menu location to the top of the screen?
Also, has anyone tried using QMail? I'd be interested in hearing experiences - it sounds too good to be true! (here's a link: modernnomads.info/wiki/index.php?page=Installing+and+configuring+QMail - as you can see, the menus are at the bottom of the screen...)
Thanks!
Mike
Hi, Sandmonkee,
I'm having the exact trouble with viewing the qmail menu bar in EnergyROMs and an HTC Touch Pro 2.
Coming from CE machines, I've always used qmail. Though not as robust as nPop, qmail will do imap, which nPop obviously won't.
Did you ever find a solution to this? I haven't.

I have actually. Using the 2003SE version ended up working for me, the toolbar stays on top. Its this one:
http://q3.snak.org/download/snapshot/q3u-ppc2003se-armv4-ja-3_0_0.zip
When you sync, it'll ask you if you want to update the program. Say no. It still has great functionality.
Good luck!
how is qmail better than the built in windows mobile mail application?

Well I can't answer that really, as I've never tried the windows mail program. I don't use Outlook on my computer (Thunderbird for me) so I was looking for something similar that I could use on my phone. I wasn't able to find any kind of "Mobile Thunderbird" (a real miss on Mozilla's part imho), but QMail is pretty darn close. Plus you can use it for RSS, IMAP, POP3, NNTP and all kinds of other great stuff that I don't think the windows one can do. Look here for more info:
http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/htc-...il-setup-gmail-hotmail-exchange-nntp-rss.html
Sandmonkee, many, many thanks.
This version does work; I have searched everywhere for a solution--you were the only person who had one.
Heh, I'd forgotten what a bear it is to setup qmail. Took the entire evening. Filtering is difficult, especially. The good news is, once you set up, then just copy the qmail directory, along with your Mail directory, to the desktop and upon re-flashing, etc, those two directories will preclude setting anything up again.
It's much faster than Pocket Outlook and with its infinite adjustments to fonts and other visuals, it makes email on a phone almost a pleasure.
I did find that if you commit to a certain filter, say "headers only," and then want to change that to "all," qmail wouldn't recognize the change. I had to delete the entire account and start again.
Too, for a Tmobile TP2 user, I really had to go back and forth b/w landscape and portrait to access all the menu buttons. And the hardkey back arrow is sometimes the only thing that will close you out of a menu. But sometimes not.
It is a crazy program, but ungodly sophisticated. It's so funny to have such a good English translation of the program itself but so little documentation elsewhere.
Again, I'm grateful for your help,
Jake
Glad that got it working for you!
Gmail does work, I use it on my phone. You just need to get the SSL files that are on the download site and copy them to your Qmail directory on your phone.
Hopefully more folks will clue in to this great app!
I'm looking for some keyboard shortcuts. Ctrl-D will delete the message upon next sync, so you don't have to go through the hassle of Marking, etc.
But have you figured out a way to exit the actual program via a keystroke?
I still have to go to File and work my way to Exit.
Another thing I noticed is that if I make a shortcut in /Windows/StartMenu/Programs, I get a trusted certificate error. With keyboard config, however, I can at least map, say, ctrl-e and bring up QMail.
