Hi all,
I sincerely apologise if this has been answered before but I did try
to use the search function but I did not really see it that clearly
I am sorry if I am off the ball / wrong or don't know what I am talking about but...
According to the data sheet found here:
View attachment DTCOL_2007FEB15_AVDE_RFR_AN_01.zip
It states that the MSM7200 (Nike Chipset) does indeed have "support" for a wifi module and claims there is a GPS unit. Now I don't know if the "support" word means it has wifi or is capable of wifi being added.
The HTC Kaiser uses the exact same chipset but has wifi and gps already onboard / installed.
Don't know if I am correct but,
Is there any way some ingenious XDA Developer can maybe "use" or "take" from the HTC Kasier Windows Mobile ROM drivers and maybe use or add them for the Nike somehow?
Once again, I am sorry if this has been answered before, but couldn't find it.
If it has been answered then feel free to remove it I won't lose sleep at night if you delete this post
Thanx
Wayne
yeah thats right wifi is included at the nike, but the drivers are missing .
and we need a antenna for the reception.
look at:

Hey syre! Thanx
Thanx for the info dude,
However, what I am really asking is there some possibility that some XDA dev
maybe could use the drivers and / or the radio drivers from the Kaiser and port them over to the HTC Dual Touch since they share the same MSM 7200?
Is there some possibility maybe?
Sorry if I sound like a douche bag hahaha...
sorry no more development on that, nike is an old device, on this forum nike user and developers is not many anymore so that seems imposible for now. Anyway GPS and wifi thing had been developed before but no luck to make it working on nike. you should give up for that feature unless i think if htc leaked their device structure and driver for us, hope you understand. thanks
Oh well...
Thanx guys, at least i got my answer,
Its just i wish i had wifi on my device,
Anywayz...
Thanx
Wayne
how can i install the GPS & Wifi drivers

I swear I saw someone post a thread about their cooked WM6 ROM somewhere that would allow you to run the Touch's TouchFlo interface on a Hermes. Did I imagine this or has someone seen either a ROM with TouchFlo or the TouchFlo application itself somewhere?

OWW REALLY DOES NOBODY USE SEARCH ANYMORE?! There are so many threads about Touchflo & the files etc..come on people..dont be so lazy and just search..
stupid this..
The called it "ButtonFlo" cause it ran but the Touch part of it didn't work. It also ran very poorly.
What sucks is that it runs beautifully (Touch and all) on my buddies 8125 Wizzard! We got the better device too!
why is it working on wizard and not hermes? That is got to be fixed sometime?

If you just LEARN HOW TO USE THE ****ING SEARCH BUTTON you know why.

wow... this bram guy is helpful.
bram guy hahaha
yeh he is isnt he
there are numerous individuals working to enable touchflo as a "touch" function. Now that the flurry of activity is dying down from the new ATT rom release, I'm sure it'll return to being a priority. Keep an eye on the main threads- as I'm sure eveyrone will know once a solution is found.
Also:
Come on guys - we've all been there once. Give 'em a chance, polietly redirect, then after a few chances - PM them a flaming message. There isn't any reason to be arrogant about it - especially out here. The guillotine shouldn't be the first reaction to someone's question.

Sorry, I repeat myself because I see a Sticky post saying "NO GPS - anntena missing". I've also read a few contradicting posts so I want to make clear:
HTC Touch Dual (nike) HAS gps receiver.
It is enabled on my “Bell” ROM (Canada).
I used the Diamond test software and I can see about 10 satellites. (Nadavi_HTC_GPS_TOOL.cab)
I have also installed Google maps and Garmin Mobile XT and both work like a charm.
I don't think there is a register/settings you can change to enable it on your phone. I think you need a new ROM.
On the WIFI side, I strongly believe it has WIFI but we may need a new ROM to enable it.
Dump your rom and share!!!!
Do you have an 528 MHz CPU? If yes, you have a Neon400 that comes with built-in GPS! And that's why you can't give us Niki-Users a GPS-enabled ROM!
More [email protected]
The canada Released Neon400 has GPS thats been confirmed alot already confirm you have the Neon400 and theres nothing special here
htc are sure churning out lots of different versions of the nike/neon
This sounds realy good!
Need a Dump from SPL and OS. After that, i make NV-Item and RAM Dump. Then i can Compare and found this settings.
Please talk with me tomorow via ICQ or MSN!
Hi, I have no longer followed this thread as I found out I have a Neon and not a Nike.
I'll dump the Rom, SPL, OS and anythink that can be dumped if you tell me how.
The Neon400 isn't the same like Neon100/200/300 because the Neon400 based on another Chipset! This chipset is the Qualcomm MSM7201A (like the Diamond) instead of the Qualcomm MSM7200 and this chipsets doens't have a built-in GPS antenna so dumping your ROM isn't really helpfull for other HTC Neon users!
Sad but true, even for us Niki users!
Anime ... CPU doesnt interessting me ... i need a Full Ram Dump, then i can enable it. I think, GSM is present in Niki and Neon to. Possible Antenna isnt present. I need some NV-Items etc ... i will talk with Thread Starter NOW to found a solution!!!!
Aaahh, I didn't know it! I need to learn a lot more about HTC devices!
It seems HTC is always good for an surprise
Hope Netrunner will find the needed Files. With GPS the Niki is a dream for me
Thread Starter doesnt answer hehehe
Not much to answer. I don't know how to dump the ROM and I've asked before. If you can teach me I'll post the file. Mabe somone can enable the Wifi for Neon, at least.
Yes i will teach you all we need BUT please talk with me over ICQ, MSN, MAIL, Skype ... what ever!
We need a lot steps and its to complex to post only via this Thread!!!!
Some steps doesnt brick your phone, but it doesnt start the OS, after reset. Some steps need a lot of time. Full Ram Dump ~ 2 hours!
I just ordered HTC Touch Dual from bell canada
set to arrive in mail in few days, does this mean im getting the Neon400? want to be 100% sure.
and if so, should i be looking at roms made for the HTC Diamond instead of nike roms?
Hello everybody,
I’m terribly sorry to disturb you but I’ve already use the “search function” on this site and there are plenty of posts and I’m lost …
Do somebody know if there is the GPS and WIFI functions on the HTC TOUCH DUAL ( nike ) ?
If, it s yes, may someone give me the precise link of the ROM I’ve to use in order to active them…
Thanks to everybody
See Sticky on this forum. Short answer - NO. The Touch Dual does not have the hardware for it.
The Hardware is present but no Radio could use it till today! And there wouldn't be any Radio for it!
I want to set up my new (att) HTC Fuse to run satellite based GPS with internal maps and WiFi Internet connections. I do not want to pay for the att GPS or data plans. I want to use the internet through WiFi at home or at hotspots without using att by mistake and receiving data charges accordingly. In addition, what is the best GPS software: Tom Tom, Garmin or some other? It is fine with me to load all the maps on the SD card and run independent of Google Maps. A large 'Points of Interest' database is also desirable.
First of all, your questions have been answered numerous times and this is not the thread for these questions. In fact your subject does not match with the contents. However, below are my suggestions:
It's better to call ATT customer service to cancel your data plan so that you dont accidentally use the data plan. There are also cabs that
can be used to disable the data plan.
TomTom or Garmin . it's upto you. However, beware of the fact that there is very noticable lag in fuze-gps.
I myself do not use data plan and have been using FuzeGPS as far as I can.
Regarding the custom ROM - you can use any of the custom ROM as each has been catered to serve different taste.
I am in the exact same situation as you... the first thing I have to say to you is READ... Read & Do NOT post (and especially do not start a new thread for something like this)!
That being said, the NRG ROM Series by NRGZ28 (MAKE SURE YOU HARDSPL!) is what I personally use on my fuze, and Tom Tom 7 would be my recommended Nav software. That being said, with both of us being in the US, it might be a bit hard to get your hands on. Even more so with the proper maps. If you need help getting your hands on Tom Tom, let me know.... ALSO-- FIND, Download, & Install Modaco's NoData.... the stock ATT Rom WILL CONNECT to the internet even if you don't want it to. ATT's explanation is that "it is a primary data, secondary voice device." Don't end up like me with $50 in data charges at the end of the month just because of the stock ROM. You can also remove the password under connections and manually key it in when you are sending / recieving a MMS (the password is cingular).
What does the poll have to do with your questions?
For the data usage, I agree about downloading the NoData cab, it works great.
For the ROM, there's lots out there and all of them will work. Its best to look at what's included and figure out what has the stuff you'll use.
WiFi works fine in all of the ROMs.
GPS is where it could get a little tricky. Since you don't want to use data, then you'll have to disable aGPS (since March 1st, most ROMs have it enabled I think because of the AT&T fix). This will cause your cold fix time to take longer.
As far as GPS software, I like Garmin the best. Its just like a Nuvi unit and the maps are the most up-to-date for my area, especially compared to TomTom.

Thanks for your quick reply.
Obviously I am new to this forum (I registered last month), but I have spent MANY hours searching and reading many threads on this very interesting site. My questions have not yet been answered well enough to make a decision. I have read good things and bad things about almost every issue. Some guys say the stock ROM is horrible, some say it is great and every thing works wonderful after simply eliminating the att bloatware. Some say stay away from cooked ROMs and some say it is the only way to go. Obviously your research has answered these simple questions for you which others also may find helpful. If you can, please post some of the thread links that answer these questions in a more definitive fashion than my research has found. By the time I read four or five pages of most of the threads I found in my search there were so many contradictions and varied results that it became a little confusing, hence I was hoping for some simple answers that I hoped would be of interest to me and others with similar questions. I assumed there was more than Garmin and Tom Tom out there, but if not, I agree they are both probably good choices.
Thanks again for your comment – David.

Dude,
If you have an ATT Fuze, Why are you polling about the iphone, win-mo, and palm OS's? I'd Semi-understand the poll if you were undecided about which phone to go buy but you just picked up an ATT Fuze. The Fuze runs on WinMo and you're on a Forum that mostly works with phones that run Windows Mobile yet you're going to poll and ask about which smartphone OS is better?
If this poll has anything to do with a purchase of a phone, go to something like CNET.com or another electronic review site to find your answers.
I'm not trying to flame you but i'm struggling to understand how your poll and HOW that has anything to do with your question that you're posting?
Anyways, its a preference. I know it gets confusing to read all the pages about all the ROM's that are posted but i'm going to tell you, its all about what YOU want and it has nothing to do with anyone elses opinions. If i were you, i'd go flash every ROM and see which one works out for me. There are compromises but you really need to go through it yourself and see which one works out best for you. There is NO PERFECT ROM for this phone as the phone itself isn't perfect. As for your navigation needs, go find "iGo" for windows mobile. I'm not sure why people get business oriented phones if they don't want to spend money on a data package because the data capabilities and business oriented software is what makes these phones different than a regular cell phone. I still don't see a point in the poll but good luck.

I accidently hit the 'Poll' button and couldn't back out of it. I should have started over with a new post, but I made up the poll to fill the blanks instead. My vote is for WinMo. Thanks for asking - David.

so i know that u can have a running android on ur touch pro but the cdma didnt work but look i found this at ppcgeeks http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=43753 u think that maybe it works for the tp? if not is there a working android ver here? iv been looking here and ppcgeeks, google, bing and not much luck....can anyone show me that way please? to a working cdma android if its out there thanks!
Probably not since you will still need the drivers for your device and the drivers for the Apache are completely different.
Go to this site, which has development for Android on the Raphael (the latest if I am not mistaken).
Good luck!
thanks alot for pointing me the right way.....im kinda new here so im sill tryin to feel my way around....sorry if this is a question that been asked 1000 time like a ppcgeeks
