GPS Artemis M650 SPV it's DEAD ?

Hi, I don't spech well english, I have the Artemis M650 SPV of the ORANGE, UNLOCKED For one WEEK that they are successful to use the GPS with TOMTOM 6, all perfect. Not sò if because of varies modernizations of ROM, hour does not exist the way to make it to work correctly, has tried whichever configuration and whichever program, someone can help me in order to understand if the gps it is DEAD ! Thanks

You can select the inbuilt GPS Receiver if you have version 6,02 or 6,03 of the TomTom application installed, if this option isn't available try Other NMEA GPS Device/ Baud 9600/ Com Port 4 and it should work fine (unless Orange have been messing around with the hardware) - Mike

Thank's but don't work now, the problem is the last week it work fine on TOMTOM with this config : Programs : com 4 ; Hardware : (NONE) 4800 or 9600 ; Access with flag !!! now I see only the orange led ( GPS ) but don't work ( NO GPS DEVICE ) TOMTOM config : Built-in GPS receiver. There is the system to reset only the GPS Chip? Sorry for my English.

Hard reset the device and see if that clears the fault, if not it looks like the hardware has broken - Mike

GPS not communicate to any software on P3300

Hi i have P3300 flashed B&B v.5 (original FR wm5) and integrate GPS dont wanna comunicate to any port. I've tried an test with HTC GPS Tools on COM 4, no satelite detected and position not fixed. What I have to do? Return my device to original rom or stay in B&B??? sorry for my bad english

I haven't used the HTC GPS tools that you mentioned, so sorry if this is redundant, but have you verified...
start menu\settings\system\external GPS is set to:
GPS Program Port: COM4
GPS Hardware Port: None
Baud Rate : 4800
Manage GPS automatically: ticked (yes)

Yes, everything that you mentioned was checked frist but no satelite signal in TomTom6. I found after HTC GPS Tools (Niki topics), the test didn't give any result. What is the problem

You don't happen to have an M650, do you?

Thanks for your kindness, but my device is a real HTC P3300. I don't know if it could also be fixed the same way with this

Not sure if you tried the fix in the link above, but wanted to add you could try flashing a different rom just to see if gps functions work in it. I tried a version of a rom and had no activesync capability, but tried a different version of the same rom and it works great. I think sometimes a particular rom and a particular phone do not get along. Trying a different rom might confirm if it's a hardware or software problem for you. That fix above looks promising too.

GPS Tuner
Thanks for your advise. I recently tested a software, GPS Tuner. When open, it showed a popup in french, my ROM is B&Bv5 now,
"Your GPS receiver is not configured yet. Do it now [Configure it Now][Later]"
If I click on [Configure it Now], it seems to work in 2" and block totally my device after. What it means?

I'm not familiar with that, so I don't know. Sorry. Unless someone else has a fix, I suggest hard resetting then flashing the same ROM again. If that does not work then choose a different ROM and see if you have different results.

HELLO DEAR LPZ GO TO VISUALGPSCE AFTER AGREE THEN GO FILE THEN CONFIGURATION THEN UNITS DISTANCE/SPEED=STSTUE AND ALTITUDE/ELEVATION = FEET AND POSITION FORMAT ddd mm.mmmm is all thing correct then ok and enjoy:

Hi all,
I tested VISUALGPSCE but it didn't work either. I retrograde in basic ROM now in hopping my GPS will work

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 !!!

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 ...

DirectorSD,

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.

which rom did u upgraded is it original or some cooked rom from this site

the original rom

I have a similar problem. I have been given an old (working) T-mobile Artemis. GPS worked fine - until I unlocked it so that I could use it with my O2 contract. Result - no GPS.
I've checked the device for any mention of GPS anywhere and there is none. QuickGPS button does not link to any program.
If you get any response I'd appreciate it if you could clue me in.
Thanks
Charlie

Also have the same problem...
t-mobile pda with new wm6 rom (not original).
The gps connects to satellites but slowly and uncontinously... my tomtom navigator 6 cannot find a valid gps signal even if the gps try to connect and the gps led light falshes...
any news?
(sorry for bad english)

Try upgrading the radio ROM (search xda dev for discussion on best ones)
My father and I both have wm6.5 with tomtom7. He gets a gps signal straight away in the same location as me, only difference is I downgraded my radio Rom to save battery drain. It takes me ages and I have to walk about to pick up the satellites.
So I recon the answer is in the radio rom which can be upgraded without changing your main rom.

Same Problem
Hi,
I've got the same problem and have tryed the newest radio.
Tomtom shows 6 satelites with very strong signal, but it doesent fix. The Satelites are all shown in the north on the same position. The rom has been flashed to original but it did not fix. Any ideas ?

Be glad you even have a signal!!! My Artemis isn't even getting a signal at all :-(

I've solved my problem....I've flashed with Tom_b_b_v3_wwe_650 ROM...and my GPS was alive......then I've flashed with my ROM..Arte_Love_WM61_21042_Simple...
Or...if you want ...you can stay with Tom's ROM...it work's very well.....

Hi!
What is the name of the ROM witch works ?
Where to download ?

To Wobstar
So did mine. I used extern Antenna. Change in Tomtom from intern GPS to extern, 4800, com 4.
I tried several times and it worked but no FIX.

Time for an upgrade, I suppose
