which gps receiver is best with XDA?

hello,
i want to buy a gps receiver, but don't know which one is compatible with my XDA? Can you also tell me if there is a serial from a different make i.e. ipaq that would fit in the XDA?
Do they all work well with Tomtom II?
thanks for your help.
Ipaq gps will not work as it is wired differently, any nmea compliant gps will work with xda, I found the Haicom hi-203e to be a good unit and leads for charging xda and powering gps are available for just about any pda you can mention. Tomtom will work with any nmea compliant gps unit. www.globalpositioningsystems.co.uk

InfraRed for HD

Hi all,
what do you think about this InfraRed Adapter
Is it possible to use such a device with Blackstone ???
I just found this one ... click.
If you like to DIY , look here.
As I can see e need this Sound-to-IR adapter from Griffin Technologies!!!
Their product Total Remote 5001-RMT /which is discontinued btw/ is ONLY transmitter. Anyway it uses software with big list of supported devices.
Adding an IR port to the HD sounds cool, but what are you going to use it for?
Communicating with old devices? or just to use it as an expensive remote?
Only for making it universal remote control.

I've bought a used ipaq 3715 from ebay for that purpose and can confirm using a PPC as remote control is excellent option.
(Though looking at 320x240 screen, after having seen HD, kinda hurts the eyes. )
I may buy few IR diodes for experiments...
I am also interested in adding an infrared port...

Need Programmers, hackers *htc touch pro cdma*

Hello everyone I am looking for any programmers, hackers that develop a RFID remote program to open my garage door. If you know of any programs that could do that please tell me. I already tried tweaking G-remote but it doesn't work.
The HTC touch Pro does not have an RFID transmitter.
You need an RFID enabled device ( Intermec) and the RFID adapter to communicate with your RFID device. I am curious on one thing, is your garage RFID or Infra Red? there is a huge difference...
If your garage is IR, then most of the handheld phones do not have IR range strong enough to emit to these.
Isn't the HTC touch Pro RFID, and IR compatible so that you can you can use it as a remote like G-remote. Hell you can control anything with g remote why not a garage door, everything is possible right ? and it would be nice that you could open any garage doors if you have the DIP switch codes.?
look everyone if I could I would do this myself but I can't, so money could be involved in exchange for what I am looking for.
thank you,
HTC Raphael not a G-Remote
I have worked with a lot of RFID and IR devices. The simple answer about this phone it is not RFID capable.
Now for IR. the device has an IR port. But it does not have enough wave strengh to broadcast at distances longer than 3 to 5 feet. So in order to do what you want we would need to replace the IR Sensor,Get additional power and write the code to interface with the device and OS. All these mods would void the warranty on the device and make it cost prohibitive, but if you got time and lot's of money it is a cool project.
WinCe soft has created some remote software for TV and DVRs.

Also you can take a look at:

and see if someone has a device with the capabilities you are looking for.
well well then I tought I was screwed but since you know alots about RFID & IR maybe you could help me, find another way, and a better understanding. I saw somewhere somekind of old radio that reads RFID and records everything ex. listening to a phone and get the voicemail code through RFID, recording the DIP codes etc. What is that ?
Intermec ?
Here is the link for Intermec RFID readers
This plugs in to their 700 Model ( which also supports bar code and Cell GSRM Band), This connects via IR to the device so we may be able to use the SDK and connect to the Touch Pro.

Send me a PM and I can get s general idea of what you are trying to acomplish...

Ok, this is driving me nuts.
Could you please tell me in simple, layman's terms *exactly* where the IR port is located on a CDMA Touch Pro? I can't find anything that looks like a window.
Why not mod the garage door rather than the TP?

Maybe instead of modding the TP, you could find a suitable module to convert your garage door to Bluetooth. Just a thought, but it would save you having to void the warranty on your TP.

iGo8 for Android

Hi All
Does anyone have any info on whether/when iGo8 might be available for Android devices?
I currently use iGo on my WM6.1 Touch HD and having tried iGo, TomTom Nav7, and Copilot 7 I can say it beats TT and CP hands down but for the lack of Traffic support in the UK. iGo for Android is mentioned on their website but the links dry up without pointing to any commercial software.
Right now it seems that for comprehensive satnav on Android Copilot have it all their own way.
Try this link for iGo myway. I am using it currently
http://www.igomyway.com/android/en/
Hi
Thanks for the reply - I did hit that page but still no mention of commercially available software. However I did do some digging through the FAQs using Google Translate and found that IGo My way for Android is only currently available on the Samsung Galaxy Spica.
There is no mention of it being put on general release. I think that is exceptionally short sighted of Navngo as they are giving a free run to Copilot and Sygic, but then they also only do Traffic via free TMC too which doesn't help us smartphone users in the UK who can't get TMC on our smartphones and even if we could TMC here is encrypted/subscription only so only used by OEM car manufacturers and TomTom.
i am useing it on my HTC Hero GSM
Yup, using it on the HTC Dream, although it's rather laggy so I'm going to try Navigon for a while.
Um, so can anyone give a source for this app?
it is there
called MotoNav
HI
i have igo my way (8.4.2) on my HTC Desire and i don't have POI's for france!?!? if anyone have them, please give me PM.
thanks!
Hi
Was also looking for iGo8 for my Galaxy i9000 S. Strange I can't find it. What's Sygic like? Any advice on a Android GPS. I find the Gmaps a bit too loosely put together and frustrating at times.
Thanks
i Used iGo on x10 mini pro and i think it's the best. sygic is slow, copilot not so precise
Igo stopped supporting android MotoNav is for devices with clscreens with higher res and my way is for lower. I can upload my way(lastest version) but later.
Sent from my IDEOS S7 Slim using XDA App

[Q] Programming a transmitter for Android phone

Hi guys, first of all I'm new at developing android app. I'd be happy and glad to have as many suggestions and advices from all of the amateurs or professionals here.
I'm currently planning to make a simple radio frequency transmitter, the one you usually find inside a car remote, and connect it to any android phone by the 35mm jack and link that to an app that I have to make as well. It's for me to have a control over my household appliances that requires radio frequency to be controlled.
What I'm asking is that how do the app link to the hardware. I'm familiar with programming language, but I think to connect it to a hardware is the challenge. How should I write a code that sends signal to that particular hardware I made ?
I know it's more to the hardware side to be concerned, but how do you guys think?
