[Q] Gps Not Finding satellites - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Recently i unlocked HD2, and since then, gps does not detecting any satellites.
I use 2 navigation programs, Igo8 and Destinator 8 and 9, and all of them displays connection with gps, but i waited more than 2 hours to find satellites...both of them found nothing.
I'm running stock rom 3.14.482.2 and flashed the 2.15.50.14 radio but still nothing.
Any ideas?

Do you have a clear view of the sky? And you could also try more gps applications but try to do it with a clear view of the sky if you haven't.Hope this helps.

I tried more than once. Also downgrade radio to 2.14 version but still no progress.

O.K. This should solve your problem. Upgrade your radio back to 2.15.50.14. After that, download and install the attached file on your phone. Make sure you install it TO YOUR PHONE and NOT SD CARD. Then run the app, download data, then run your gps app. You should be good to go. Hope this helps.

Tried ....nothing again...

I would try a task 29 then reinsall the rom, its likely just a software glitch

Go to GPS settings and mark "managed by windows" or something my rom is in spanish, then run quick GPS, and try first whit Google Maps if u have 8 Sat´s+ the GPS work Fine, if u dont want to configure GPS flash AKIRA ROM WWE is ready for use iGo 8 (That i have) ;D

Hello, had the same problem with my HD2. My phone was having an Eastern Europe type of ROM (Poland 1.48.479.1). After I've put the HSPL, I updated the phone to the latest Radio (2.15.50.14) and a custom ROM, i did see that GPS didn't work. In trying to resolve the problem, I installed a lot radios and OS's (custom Windows, SD Androids, NAND Androids, etc), but GPS didn't seem to work in the right parameters (there were sometimes when it worked for few seconds after waiting about 5 minutes). Then i decided to turn back cu SPL, and install the original stock Windows from the HTC site. Now the GPS seem to work fine. The Radio version is 2.05.51.05_2. Hope it works for your phone too.

Another problem that i noticed, is that when i'm starting Destinaror, appears a message that says
"Bluetooth connection is not possible. Please check that bluetooth connections are active and then try again"
What is this? Is this the problem generator?

Good luck. I've posted twice that my BT is totally dysfunctional (does not turn on at all) with the recent dcd roms and haven't gotten any useful response. I'm just waiting for a modified version of the official release to come out. It was suggested that I have a problem with BT drivers.. ?? Whatever that means for me... Don't get me wrong, I appreciate all the hard work that's gone into these roms.

Auto Reboot after GPS fix... Strange Issue?

Hello to all...
I have a sprint touch pro (raphael) and so far its was working perfectly but all of a sudden the phone resets itself after 10-20sec. after getting a GPS lock in google maps and Tomtom 7. recently Tomtom says no GPS device...
Well I backup the registry every couple of apps/tweaks i install... but even when i restored the registry from when it was working fine... still the self reset issue occurs.
any idea as to what gives???
I did recently install bike dashboard and i think that was the culprit... even after uninstalling it, and restoring previous registry, the phone still is experiencing the same issue.
Keep in mind that if I dont use any software using GPS... the phone works fine!
I want to see If i can troubleshoot the issue before I hard reset it (then I'll have to waste a whole day just resetting it and installing all the apps/tweaks to get it back to what it was before)
ur not alone.
instead of telling you what to do, im going to direct you to this forum.
there is a quick and easy fix, but it hit alot of people last week.
heres the forum.
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=92926
its happened to me, & others i know. flash a new updated radio & it should fix your problems.
I had the same issue... I just updated the ROM to the latest official Sprint Rom from their website & all is well. Your mileage may vary.
yea updating the stock rom will include the radio they included in the rom package. any custom roms dont flash a new radio. so flash a new radio & you'll be good =]

Hi there guys well i just installed the new Android build.. and when i have 2 sign up to google or gmail because i got gmail it wont search a internet spot...

I've been having the same problem since the beginning but nobody has really been able to figure out what's wrong. I turn on WiFi and then after a couple seconds I see an error that says "Unable to scan for networks.", and then WiFi shuts down.
^Same problem here. Wifi not working.
If you guys won't tell us what version you are using and if you got the batterie fix installed etc, then we won't be able to help you. So be more specific so we can help.

I installed this version of android, but also get the message:
Unable to search for networks
If you use the batterie fix you need to install the zimage AND the module. Some people (including me ) seem to forget that.
Tried it already, but still doesn't work.
"Unable to scan for networks."
well..
well what i ment was that my WIFI wont work... i got the latest version of this tread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=627997 build on 1 July-2010..with launcher pro.

Same here been have this problem from ever since i've try android, rhod 210 cant get wifi to work for the life of me.
Someone please halp.
I dont think there is a way to get wifi and battery working at the same time in GSM phones...but I could be wrong, can someone confirm?
For what its worth, I had the same problem with wifi not working. But I didn't have my sim card in yet. not having the sim card was my problem. if that's your problem you might get connected to wifi after trying my option which made everything work smoothly.
Anyone having any luck yet with this?

the newest rootfs fixes this.
i got the new build 16/6
well i got the new build 16/6 and still no WIFI working... do i have to update before i run the xandroid?
New user here, I'm also having the exact same issue.
Phone: HTC TIlt 2 (gsm)
windows Mobile 6.5 Professional
CE OS 5.2.21849(Build: 21849.5.0.63)
CPU: Qualcomm 7201A
Rom Version: 1.59.502.3(67150)WWE
Radio Version: 4.48.25.20
-every time wifi is enabled it displays the scanning icon for a few seconds and than pops up a message saying unable to scan for networks. The message will repeat two or three more times and than wifi shuts off.​
I've tried the all of the 6/16 builds (2.0.1 Eclair, 2.1 AOSP, Sense etc.) as well as the 6/06 and several of the older builds Even the 3/01 builds when wifi was first working. In fact I also tried adding the device's MAC to the startup.txt with those builds, and the current ones. I've tried battery fix free builds, so I dont think that is the issue.
I ran both a .cab install with the Project Android launcher, and the manual install booting with haret.exe.
I updated to the latest rootfs, zimage, and initrd. And I deleted my data.img after every update
I'm still using the stock rom and radio. Although I have seen other users with the same specs who have working wifi. I'd like to avoid flashing a new rom and radio to the phone if possible, but I suppose it will be my next step if i can't find any other fix.
Any thoughts on what I'm doing wrong? Did i miss something stupid?

[Q] Wjfi & Bluetooth not working

Bought a T mobile HD2 (unlocked) second hand with energy rom installed.
Got it home & I find that the wifi & bluetooth are not working.
It picks up the network signal fine & the data connection is working fine.
But the wifi turns on & will not pick up anything.
The bluetooth it seems does not discover & is not discoverable.
I suspected it may be somthing to do with the rom so I loaded up a stock T mobile rom with the same results.
I have updated the radio with the same results.
The phone has Hspl loaded & I am wondering if I could do a complete cleanout of everything including Hspl & reload a completly vanilla stock Rom would that help.
I have fiddled with all the settings for both wifi & bluetooth & still no results.
At this point I need help!!!!
Run a task 29 then the stock rom of your choice, check the radio installed is compatable with the rom, hard reboot after completing the rom flash (its a good idea to do that first as well in case you don't need to run a 29 or flash)

I've the same problem ...I suppose.
I used a Touch Pro in the last two years and Energy ROMs since September 2009. I never had problems with Wi-Fi an Bluetooth.
Recently I bought a HD2 and tried Bloutooth and Wi-Fi only after 1 week.
So, both the Touch Pro and the HD2 got the same ROM (Energy ROM) flashed , each by its own version, but two days ago I discovered WiFi not working (DISCOVERED, because I never tried it before)
The problem seems an extremely poor signal seen on the on screen meter, only if I'm close to the router (1-2 meters!) I couldn't establish a real connection, because the HD2 loss the signal every 30-40 seconds.
Bothered about this I tried with Touch Pro: the result is the same!
So I concluded: "It's the ROM!". Strange (never had problems with Energy ROMs) but possible. I flashed the stock ROM on the HD2: the issue remains. So I thought about the RADIO, and I flashed the RADIO 2.12.50.02 (compatible with ROM). The issue is still here.
I used Task 29 before another flash, then I tried an Artemis ROM with RADIO 2.12.50.02... nothing changed. (note that I tried almost every different settings about Wi-Fi,from BsB tostandard enhance settings)
Last (related?) issue: when I try a hard reset, the progress bar starts to "move" but after 3-4 seconds (about a third of the bar) the bar disappears and I got the "Press VolUp button" message. Then the phone has the first boot... but I wonder if the HR is complete, because it seems yes.
Finally I came to this thread and... another doubt: what about BT?
I tried both the Touch Pro and the HD2 Bluetooths but they can't connect or recognize each other (every "Find" and "Visible" options activated)
I didn't try yet with Touch Pro (flash etc.) but I am very bothered and dubious about it.

WIFI & Bluetooth
Thus far I have run task 29
Reinstalled a stock T-mobile rom
But no luck wifi & bluetooth still not working properly.
Decided to go right back to the very beginning & uninstalled HSPL by loading the stock Rom from the SD card
Stock rom would not upload & i am getting the SPL 1.42.0000 Screen plus "Upgrade Rom code error please try again"
The question I have now is which is the proper stock Rom for this T mobile HD2 & how do I find that out?

Sorry I can't help about this.
We are alone in this thread!
wifi & bluetooth
I think your right.
Ah well, at least I have a very expensive doorstop!
You are not alone. I am experiencing the exact same problem and have yet to find an answer.
Task 29 didn't help and reflashing the radio the traditional way (even with the stock rom) doesn't seem to overwrite whatever is causing this problem.
Would uninstalling the hspl do anything? I am running out of ideas.

I did what you said but the problem is still there. What to do?
Is the signal strength very weak, if so it could be hardware related & maybe wifi antenna connection issue which can be a problem for some;
