OK - which RADIO do you have? - this is not clear.
You should try - Hard reset - install tomtom6.03 start up tomtom - sometimes for say 30s tomtom can say no GPS device - before the message changes to waiting for a valid GPS signal. Be patient.
Also search for "no GPS Trinity" here: http://www.google.com/advanced_search?q=+site:http://forum.xda-developers.com&hl=en&lr=&as_qdr=all
you should find others with the same experience as you!
Good luck.
hi,
i have read in this forum, that any Radio ROM ending in 1 have GPS enable, so you must wait a litle time (1-2minutes) before your GPS program fix the GPS signal.
i installed it with trinity info guide and used this radio version 1.46.00.11. but my device information show radio version to be 1.16.00.00 and ROM version 2.0.8.2. should i flash it with another radion 1.46.00.11 GPS available on this forum? Pl help. sorry for double post, i was really confused where to put it and was really desperate for my GPS. i will be careful next time. thanks for your reply. i am trying other options

hey! We have exactly same problem! the radio also show 1.16.00.00 on mine!
Upgrade your radio then it should work! had a friend who had also a very old version. He got's it fixed with upgrade!
i have already replied you in the other thread where you posted this issue.. there's no need to double post this. I've posted the link to hard-spl 1.20
you need to use hard-spl 1.20 olipro to install your radio, 1.30 has resulted in radios not being flashed even though you follow all the steps.. there is a note about this in the guide if you read it carefully.
Flashed With Olipro 1.20
RACERX i have flashed it with olipro 1.20 but still it shows no GPS device? even after 20 minutes of keeping tomtom on. should i upgrade rom to 1.40 GPS, i saw one on this forum. although i have downloaded it but it ROM update utility shows pretty strange words on its menu!!! what next
what radio do you currently have
The problem is clearly that you radio ROM is not up to date - and that it why you don't have GPS.
hi buddy! I got it solved!!! Yes it's the problem of the radio, and seems that if your hard SPL version is 1.30, you are not able to flash the radio. everytime it seemed works but after flash the radio just remain the same.
read this thread,http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1483529#post1483529
there is a radio ROM with hard SPL which flashs the hard SPL first then the radio. I succesfully found the device and got GPS working yesterday!

No - reading is out of the question. What you have to do (especially if you are new) is just create a new thread - or if not post the same question in as many threads as you can find that are half relevant.
(This of course is cynical sarcasm. Please - do not do the above. I implore you all to READ - as you will find the answers. Also - when you find an answer to your question - try thanking the person who brought you the answer - instead of pretending that you found something new out)
Probably radio version 1.46.00.11
i flashed using trinity info guide and used radio version 1.46.00.11. but my device information show radio version to be 1.16.00.00 and ROM version 2.0.8.2. should i flash it with another radion "1.46.00.11 GPS" (but RUU shows strange wording on the menu when i launched it but didn't install it cause i wanted a go from u) available on this forum?
my goodness... it says on the bottom of the guide in BRIGHT RED FONT "If you have followed these steps, but your radio has not been upgraded, please install Olipro's Hard-SPL version 1.20 found here using SSPL (do not enter bootloader manually) and try to flash your radio again. After doing so, it is recommended that you flash Hard-SPL 1.30 again."
i've now posted this info in the million noob threads as well... seriously ppl..
Thank You Very Much
RACERX you are the MAN, you really are an expert. Now my GPS device is working but searching for the signals as i am in Pakistan these days. Know of any south asian (pakistan or saudi arabia) maps available.
Besides tomtom, which one is the best GPS navigator? And if possible can u tell me where i can find information regarding using my laptops net connection for my PDA? i am an old user of computers (since 1991) but a newbee in the world of pocket pc, and its because of you that i could change completely my SFR s300+ into an english windows mobile 6. I will donate something for you man. I read many threads carefully but was wondering around untill you pulled me outg of this trouble.
Again THANK YOU VERY MUCH
glad it helped.. i'm not familiar with which map programs support pakistan. I use MapKing for Singapore where i am, and love it ... i don't see a pakistan map, but you can check http://www.mapking.com/en/MK10/MK10_Dowload_Eng.htm#Malaysia Tom Tom seems to be quite popular, but again i don't know what countries it supports. Maybe you could try garmin or something? I know that they at least support thailand and such.
about your net connection, you basically want to use your trinity as a bluetooth modem? I've never done it, actually, but i think there are some threads on it if you search around. sorry i can't be more help. let me know if you get stuck
Thanks Again
I really appreciate for your timely and valuable response.

Problem after HardSPL upgrading :(

Hi everyone,
I've just upgraded my (french) Diamond's HardSPL with the OliNex version found in the topic "Hard-SPL or how I learned to stop worrying and love the MPU". Everything was OK at this time so I booted and HTC "reinstalled" the TF3D interface files.
Everything is still working but when I tried (several times) to upgrade the Radio version to v1.00.25.05, the program stays at 0% for 3 minutes and then gave me the 262 update error. I tried to connect my Diamond to different USB ports but didn't change anything.
So I decided to download the official update from HTC website and install it (witch I did) but this update doesn't work too (same error)
The strory is not so bad because my Diamond is still working but I want to install an unofficial ROM...
PS: sorry for my english and thanks for your help
@tompim
The first post in the radio thread is worth reading carefully:-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407956
I suspect that your problem is that you need one of the unsigned / developer hardspls for standalone radio upgrades and you are using one of the "signed hardspls"
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=408621
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400950
Thank you very much for your explanation (i read the radio thread before strarting ).
In fact I want to install the Diamond Project Rom that need theses (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=408621) HardSPL version but I don't know what version number choose (I tried with the 1.34 and the same problem appeared
To remove all doubt and be able flash virtually any rom, flash the developer edition unsigned Hard-SPL from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400950. It should do the trick for you.
Works like a chrarm thanks!

ROM

please can any one help me i've just had an an htc herm300(t-mobile mda vario II) as a gift but there isn't any OS in it so i need a rom (windows mobile 6) compatible with
i've downloaded several roms but unfortunately no one was the right :S
so if somebody could help me i'll be very gratefull
Thanks
huh?
what do you mean by 'no os'?
basically, you first need to flash Hard-SPL from the Hermes Upgrading thread and afterwards any ROM from this thread.
I'm not sure how you could remove the os from one of our phones.
Try something like the stock at&t rom, just to see if it will flash and get the phone to a working order.
Then you can do hardspl, and flash any hermes rom you like.
thnx for ur replys i'll try !!!!
sorry but the flashing stops in 1% then the mda automaticly reboots

As my understanding, once you have HardSPLed your device, you can flash any Diamond radio you want.

Choosing a HARD-SPL

Hello guys,
I have a couple of questions which i aint getting an answer to when searching the forums. (google didnt work eather) .
first i'am a total noob in flashing roms tho i do have great knowledge about computers / programming etc...
My configuration is :
MDA compact IV (which is a DIAMOND200)
IT is also cid locked and simlocked by T-mobile
the ROM is 1.93.xxx.x
The SPL is a 1.93
radio is a 1.00.00.25 (or somthing like that cant remember )
What i want ?
What i want is a ROM which is fast and has the looks of the real htc touch diamond. And i also want it signed by olinex.
What iam searching for ?
Iam searching for a 1.93 signed HARDSPL. The problem is that i managed to find one which is unsigned but when iam in RUU it says Iam upgrading
FROM: 1.93.xxx.x <-- this is my rom not my spl right ?
TO: 1.00.DIAMOND <--- LIKE WTF ? shouldnt it be 1.93 ?
So first step is to get the right HARDSPL installed correctly :/ And iam also worried my MDA compact IV will have problems when installing the hardspl :S (because of the DIAMOND200 tag)
Would anyone so kind answer my questions.
Thanks in advance,
Qwin
So nobody has an answer to my questions ? I mean is it that hard to answer ?
No, and manners cost nothing either .
The signed Hard SPL isn't the best choice. It limits the number of ROMs you can use, becase OliNex arn't (AFAIK) keeping up to date with signing. Use the un-signed Hard SPL.
As for the RUU, just ignore it, it's only showing you the version on the NBH file - this contains 1 or more NB files which is what's actual flashed to your phone.
What the RUU tell's you is pretty much irelevant (other than error codes).
