Hi Guys just wondering if this is common problem for the S740 ?
I was using my phone today with Mcguider I saw some bars pop up trying to get lock then since that it says hardware error and freezes the phone if I attempt to go into mcguider and the same occurs when I try google mpas with GPS.
Just wondering if this is a freak hardware failure or common fault so time to get a different model like HTC HD2.
thanks in advance.
Hy!
No its not an common problem......the GPS from Rose works still great for me...i´m using Sygic and Google Maps and all works perfect.....I think you should try to Reset your Phone....maybe an Software-Problem....or if you have to much money buy a new Phone... ;-)
I had problems like this in the past.
Had the same error this weekend and I think it has something to do with the QuickGPS data. I deleted the xtra.bin in the \Windows folder rebooted (did not redownload quickGPS data) and waited for a regular fix and it didn't hang on using GPS after that.
When I had this error in the past (2-3 times a year) it just worked again after a while without me doing anything. Thats why i suspect the QuickGPS data as it times out after 7 days.
I have the same issue,
Whenever trying to use a gps program the phone locks up. I tried reflashing the WM6.5 rom again but still no luck. But i'll try this quickgps thing.
Anyone know where I can find the gps settings? (it's com4 ?)
Thanks.
after removing the quickgps it no longer locks up the phone.
Thanks!
Garmin XT & Google Maps & Bing all work with the gps now!

Thanks I did reset the phone and now it works once again so I guess it is a common issue.
Nope I don't have too much money I just want a phone that works perfectly for all my gadget needs and up until this point it has been perfect shame they are not making a new model it appears that the candybar phone is getting less and less popular
I am having the same problem, i tried installing Sygic mobilemaps 10 and when i come to the language selection screens the phone wont respond to anything, it will launch the gps quickfix application in the back so i think it has something to do with that. resetting the phone does nothing. problem remains when i install sygic again. Anyone an idea ?
Hy!
Okay i don´t know about QuickGPS....i make the Update via Wlan manual and its disabled to download automatic when Navi runs and i had never probs with Navi on this phone...for me its the best phone i ever had...
...and it sucks that HTC doesn´t make a new Version of this phone....
to Renever:
Sygic MobileMaps10 works with Rose? Look here...
true its an great phone..... i will try old mcguider 2009 on it again.
I use the 2009 Version and it works Great for me on Frauhottelmanns 6.5er V1.00 there is no need to Upgrade to sygic v10...... "Never touch a running System"....;-)
well i received a message that my trial has expired on mcguider 2009 .... so thats why i figured lets try the new version....

Has anyone noticed that Tomtom 2.24 has problems with WM2003 on the XDA, after it's been run it gets rid of the small dot's used to select items (such as the ones next to On, Off, Vibrate on the Volume menu of the today screen) has anyone got a work around for this ? Only a soft reset seems to bring them back :!:

There is no need to downgrade to 2002.
Just upgrade to TomTom 2.04 and GPS 2.08, format your SD Card and re-install the maps. Try to start without any additional POI files.
This should fix your problem.
After this, the TT 2 was running fine on my MDA with the 4.0.33 german ROM.

Upgrade to 2.04 ? But I am already using 2.24 :?: :?
My Dad has just got an XDA aswell, he's running the same rom as me (4.01.00 no extra cooked bits) and 2.24 with GPS 2.08 does the same on his.

I have the same problem on my MDA II, even after the ROM 1.60 upgrade: sometimes radio buttons and/or checkboxes just disappear. I don't think this is specific to TomTom, as I saw the same thing happen also while running other programs. It is also not reproducable, most of the time TomTom just works fine.
Doesn't bother me much though, as a soft reset is a matter of seconds.

I found that tomtom 2.05 and gps 2.09 is the best marriage. Tomtom 2.24 does have some bugs such as after planning a journey it takes ages to go to the navigator map.

Is that with WM2003 ?
Tomtom's site states 2.24 adds PocketPC 2003 support but to be honest is didn't even try tomtom 2.05 i just upgraded it straight away.

where did you get the upgrade from?

Just put GPS 2.09 on and its nice to have the bar on the Today screen to launch tomtom, we'll have to wait and see if the problem with disappearing buttons still occurs, but it's been OK so far :wink:

I did not persevere with WM2003, it seemed to be very flaky on my XDA, I am sticking with XDA dev rom 1.2.
Swifty,
Many thanks. This has really got rid of alot of the bugs.
Does anyone know a url of a UK map update. The packaged map doesnt know alot of roads built over 18 months ago
Ashby
i followed all the examples bu i still had the missing radio buttons.
i tried every combo of updates and GPS versions. so i have kept the lastest versions.
however i have found a way to stop it occuring. it seems that the radio buttons only disappear after you launch the GPS software. i have avoided launching it and have used tomtom for a while now and the radio buttons have remained there.
Ashby, I dont thin tomtom do map updates as such, they release the new maps when the next version is released.
Yes, I kind of figured that. They hint on their website that map updates will be available when there data supplier gives them new data, but I suspect that they never will release an update and force you to by Navigator 3.
Bad show really.
A cool feature would be map editior, that way users can add new roads/ modify road layouts etc
Ashby
I purchased the Navigator USA version about 8 months ago and just last month TomTom sent me an email stating that map updates would be available soon. I followed a URL in the email and signed up for the updates and within a week I has seven new cd's that contained all the updated maps.
I don't have any complaints.
It must just be the UK!
never had a prob with tomtom v2.24 on v4.00.11 on v4.01.00 it took bluddy ages to load up and it hanged loads. but now that im on vA.30.07 it is a hell of a lot faster then v4.00.11 and seems alot better
Radio Buttons
Another confirmation on the radio buttons problem with TomTom. The problem is still there even with the latest version (2.24 & GPS 2.19).
But, I have been able to trace the bug down a bit. Can't prove it, but maybe others can confirm:
It seems the problem is related to the GPS-S/W. Whenever I change anythin on the configuration there, I lose the radio buttons until I do a soft reset. SPecifically when you change the COM-port, you lose the buttons.
We've been doing some GPS/NMEA S/W development around the serial ports ourselves. WM2003 has some ugly bugs in this area, such as hanging when you try to open a port that isn't configured or active).
But, as Microsoft points out: Its not a bug, its a feature (verify that the soft reset button still works)!! ;-)
I spent ages trying to get TomTom 6 working and gave up, so instead thought i would use google to help me to get the latest maps working. They don't work though. Except for one which is new and does work on TomTom Mobile 5.20. Don't know why but its the only one, if you found another new one that works, post it here.
UK and IE plus major roads of WE-Map v660.1223
no need for TomTom 6 now!
they wont work becuase the new maps are teleatlas maps v675
the old ones are navteq v660
tomtom 6 doesnt work due to the screen res on phone
UK and IE plus major roads of WE-Map v660.1223 does work with TomTom 5.20 because thats what I use.
SO use TomTom 5.20 and the maps: UK and IE plus major roads of WE-Map v660.1223
thats the best you can get on this phone

Honglong,got to say thanks for the info - tried for months to find something like this.You are right,it works a treat.Would say thanks a million times if there was sufficient space - hope once is enough.

I thought I found that TT6 didn't work because I couldn't get it to select the GPS, I couldn't find any way to get it to select the com port for the GPS at the bottom of the list of available com ports.
Tom Tom 6 does work on this phone.
Add the GPS device in Bluetooth manager to COM6. Make sure secure connection is off. Now use 'fakecursor' in TomTom6 to select com6. The devices will be paired and you can now turn secure connection back on in the bluetooth manager. Map 'fakecursor' to the camera button on the side of the phone. It will make Tomtom6 easier to use because you have instant access to the cursor when needed. When you disable fakecursor, it exits to the homescreen, but tomtom is still running, so just click ok button on the quick launch icon and it will take you where you last where in tomtom.
I couldnt get this combination to work the 5.20 freezes as it looks for the maps, havent even tried to set up bluetooth on it yet.
Does TomTom Mobile 5 work on this phone? I just get a garbled screen when I run the application. Do I need to get 5.2??
Hi guys,
I've got an issue with my HTC S740 with the GPS
I've got Garmin Mobile XT and my GPS never find any satellite.
On the GPS settings, the GPS is setup on COM4:COM4: (the other choice is COM7:COM7, but Garmin is always setting automatically on COM4)
Even with GoogleMaps, the GPS is not recognize (I mean not signal)
As I cannot change or find the port used by the GPS, do you have any idea to make the GPS running onb my dear Rose ?
Thx
Murray Bozinski
are you in a building?
i had the same problem but after 2 resets it started working again... dont know what caused it but i think it might be 2 apps using the same port?

I already try to reset my Rose, but no success... I also try the "Microsoft_Smartphone_GPSID_Settings.cab" but the program said "You've got insufficient privileges" when I click on apply...
That's so strange
Ok, I'm getting crazy now...
Here is the summarize of the diffrent tests i've done :
ROM version : 1.14.406.0 (10/27/08)
Inital Config :
Launching QuickGPS
Tried to use the GPS with GoogleMaps and Garmin Mobile XTwith default config
After 45mn outside, no signal
GPSID Settings :
After installing GPS Intermediary Driver (GPSID), i tried to change the baud rate to 4800 (was set to 300) or change the tick box "Manage Automatically". When I click on "Done", I get an error message "An error occured in Settings.exe...". On "Details", i get an NullReferenceException in DoneButtonClicked() function.
And when I try to change the hardware port, i've got another error message : "You have insufficient permissions to map the hardware port"
GPS Test :
Ok, i don't give up, I tried GPS Test 1.04
Hard reset and installed GPS Test
So it found the Port4 as a GPS receiver, but it couldn't get any signal
The first time, it found one or two satellites but the color remains yellow, "GPS Starting up", with "Fix 1D"
So still no signal in GoogleMaps, neither Garmin
Please, I really need some help !!!
Any idea are welcome
IMHO it definitely looks as an hardware failure. Static and under open sky it shouldn't take more than 75 seconds to localize (cold start, without A-GPS). Normally if I start GPS within Google Maps it takes less than 10 seconds to get position.
At least you probably won sad prize having first Rose with HW failure (as far as I know from all s740 related forums which I read).
I had the same issue. Tried GPSID, Google Maps (0 satellites), GPS Test (stucked on COM4)... Nothing worked. (I was always trying it outside for a few minutes with QuickGPS updated. My other phone got the fix within 15 seconds)
Today I master reset the phone, set date, updated QuickGPS, installed Google Maps... Fix within 15-20 seconds.

What's finally bad news (sorry Murray ). For me that means - GPS radio in Rose (at least using default ROM) may freeze and stop responding to OS for unknown reason.
In the best case (a bit funny), it's sensitive to proper time/date/timezone setting...
Guys, I decide to go back to the shop where I bought my phone and they said this is the second Rose they received with the same issue.
So they give my money back and I finally deceided to buy a Palm Treo Pro.
I'm a bit disapointed with HTC (my previous S730 was really bad quality)
Now I'm very happy with the TP
Thanx for your support
Murray Bozinski
i think that this is software problem
my gps disappears too when I change my ROM to Orange Orange_UK_1.17.61.2
previous version works fine with GPS
and there is no any GPS software (like GoogleMaps) in Orange ROM.
So if your ROM is Orange too - this may be ROM bug
I try to change ROM to stock 1.14.707.0 soon
hi all, i had the same gps issue and could not get a fix using googlemaps and some other software amazegps, . i tried several hard resets but nothing seemed to work.
after a few days of investigation i bought copilot 7 from a guy on ebay, hard reset again.... then booted her up. after 5 minutes i had a fix and was being directed down my road.. written on my favourite htc phone so far... s740
Never get gps
My Rose buy in Portugal in November has the same problem. Never get any signal sattelites(fix).
Rose version: 1.14.401.1
Rom data: 10/06/08
Radio version: 0.24.30.24
My first ROM (beta 1.07) was russian with Google-maps pre-installed. GPS works fine
then I try to change it to Orange UK 1.17 ROM. There is no built-in GoogleMaps and GPS doesn't work
I try to use stock english ROM 1.14. In this case there is no GoogleMaps and GPS doesn't work too
Yesterday I found russian rom 1.14 and try it. This ROM has pre-installed version of GoogleMaps and.. GPS works!
So in my opinion there is no GPS driver or something else in some ROMs. But if ROM must have pre-installed GPS software then GPS driver of course exists and everything works fine
I can take link to russian 1.14 ROM to compare it with english 1.14 ROM
Looks like mine works too after a Hard Reset with Google Maps, GPSTest and gpsVP. Interesting...
i work with Garmin XT and Mc Guider and no problem.
my settings is
Port: COM 4
Baud : 19200
GPS on my Rose worked fine after hard reset but I didnt use the phone for few weeks, installed some new software and then it stopped working once again.
Fortunately I was able to fix that just changing the port number and restarting.

Awaiting Better GPS Accuracy
My question to HTC Customer Service:
GPS radio in my HTC s740 freezes and stop responding during undefined time. For example, when I use Garmin Mobile XT for Windows Mobile 5.00.20w GPS works, but suddently it writes: "Awaiting Better GPS Accuracy" and stop responding during undefined time. Google Maps have this problem too. Hardware reset cannot help, may be it's ROM software error? My HTC Rose have СЕ OS 5.2.20279 (Build 20279.1.3.4), Radio Version 12.23.30.06H_0.24.30.24. Rom version: 1.14.402.0 (25.10.2008). Send me please ROM upgrade or specify another method to resolve this problem. Thanks!

My answer to HTC Customer Service:
The same problem with GPS also have some my friends (s740 model seller: Latvia Mobile Telephone, www.lmt.lv ). You can find the same problem at internet forums, for example here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=465564 May be it's a global problem for all s740 phones (hardware or software)? I know, that new models of HTC Rose have new ROM, for example: RUU_Rose_HTC_RUS_1.14.411.1_Radio_sign_12.23.30.06_0.24.30.24_CRC_Ship Can you help me more seriously? It seems that we haven't a HTC local customer in Latvia. Thanks for answer.

Hard reset do not resolve this problem. It's ROM or hardware internal bug (see my post to HTC support). Try to change GPS COM port to COM8: (for exampe, via Resco Registry):

DriverInterface = COM8:

I have a Toshiba TG01 touch phone with gps. I loaded mm successfully including maps. However after a variable amount of time from 10 seconds to 5 minutes the mm software automatically closes and the phone returns to its home page. It always finds a gps signal so it's not even that. I've tried changing power settings on the phone. Reloading the software but nothing seems to help. Please help anyone who's had a similar problem on any device. Thank you

I never used the Memory map, but Garmin Mobile XT and IGO 8 work perfectly on my TG01.
+1 garmin the best
high detail maps and acuracy
Errmm, this is Memory Map, not car navigation like Garmin or iGo.
All I can say is that MM on my TG01 has never closed down on its own. What version are you using?
Thank you for your replies. I have recently updated the mm to version 5.4.2 I hadn't loaded the previous one onto the tg01 so i dont know if that would make a difference. If I turn the satellite off by just altering the com port then mm stays on, could it be something to to do with the gps?
My version is 5.1.3 build 716, I haven't had a previous version loaded. I'm running it through GPS Gate as I need to use that for Tomtom anyway.
You could try using a different ROM and Radio stack.

My hd2 lately has been acting rather strange. Since daylight savings my phone has been skipping hours seemingly at random, If I change the time manually about half an hour later it will have changed the time by itself to a few hours in advance.
I've tried updating the time through the internet but i've had no luck so far.
I'm currently running chuckys GTX but that isn't the problem because yesterday I had the same problem with Energy rom.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
HD2 daylight saving time problem
I also have this problem since daylight saving.
The phone random changes time, now its 2 hours ahead of normal time.
I also tried everey setting I can find.
Please help me (us)!
I am also having this problem, I turned off internet time sync, but it is still happening, I'll post here if i find a fix!!
I am having same problem as well. Called helpdesk HTC. For them its new. They want to know which provider i use. (Vodafone NL) They want to know if the problem also happens with other providers?
I also installed a stock rom 3.14 and nothing else and still have the problem of random changing the time +1 hour.
wow that is weird... were do you guys live, I live in the US and were changing our time next weekend hopefully this doesnt happen to my phone too
hi.
i have the same problem.
this is rom or radio issue?
The same problem here. If i change time manually, leo will change it by itself in couple of hours. Even if time is changed manually, message will come with a bad time indicator. Automatic time synchronization doesnt help. :\
Stock ROM
This could be your solution (it was mine)
Dutty in his ROM thread posted a cab that would solve that problem. I haven't tried it since I don't have that problem.
YMMV.
see the thread inthe general section for a possible fix....
worked for me (reg edits).....
reply
I just preformed a hard reset. For me it was no problem, the phone was slow for weeks and only tomtom navigator is important to me.
So my problem is solved now thanks to the hard reset.
For the other people, good luck with this problem...I have Vodafone NL btw
Greets
Sorry..problem is back..HARD RESET DOES NOT WORK!
big problem with dst
I think this i s a big problem and maybe only patch can fix this.
I have tried to re-install windows (flash ROM) with the latrest original ROM from HTC
I have tried to get registry backup from another HD2 which doesn't have this problem. it doesn't work.
I have tried to to flash without having SIM card in it and doesn't apply any wireless connection. Windows doesn't know my location and time. Then i connect to GSM operator in Bulgaria and the clock turns one hour ahead then i turn on my Google location services and my phone turns 2 hours ahead.
I'm really pissed off and i think this will be a big trouble... even flashing ROM doen't help, then what...???
ofcourse you can stop all your connections and there will be no problem if you set the correct date, time and location, but this means that i'll never use wheather...
please help. maybe it is time to write to htc support i don't know...
btw i have also android on my hd2 and there is no problem with time.... i really have no ideia...
I also have the same problem my GSM provider is MTel BG
I'm with Globul

In Bulgaria i have the same problem. It changes from +2 Minsk to +2 Sofia, Talin...
I think we must write to HTC support and then waiting for patch...
But the most strange thing i found is how this can happen when you falshed your HD2 with the latest ROM from HTC... This means that the configuration is not in Windows Mobile, maybe in something like BIOS or i don't know... Mayby we have bad servers in registry which gave us these troubles and we can;t find them. This trouble doen't appear with Android in same network with same hardware. Maybe Android has another servers for time synchronization...
Problem for me has been solved by duttys wintertimefix.cab
It's in his Rom thread under the cab repository link.
I had the same problem (Sweden Telia) but Dutty's fix seems to do it's work!
Impressive Dutty!!
To bad that ignorant HTC doesn't want to aknowledge problems with their phones, not the first.... An iphone4 seems more and more appealing
Thanks again Dutty!
