My understanding is that there is NO GPS in the 16 gb or 32gb Touchpads.

You can't.
Location detection is by current IP and crossreferencing known WiFi locations only.
It _might_ be possible to pair to a bluetooth GPS unit and use that.
There are a few 32 GB HP TouchPads with cellular radio and GPS.

yep, AT&T 32gb 4g + GPS, this is the ONLY 10" touchpad with those features, but it doesnt work with CM7 yet...
as for BT GPS, market search bluetooth GPS, grab your fone (with GPS obviously, or GPS module with BT), sync. nuff said
The only problem I see with the 4G models is that updates are way behind the regular ones.
We are few, We are a low priority.

i was actually VERY surprised when i heard that HP and AT&T actually pushed out those 4G models
every other TP has the hole for a sim card, but its filled with a dummy slug card and there is no sim slot on the inside

All the 4G Touchpads are just engineering samples, no?
Bluetooth GPS
I can confirm a external Bluetooth GPS (cheapy) does work alongside this app (https://market.android.com/details?id=googoo.android.btgps&hl=en)
also fakes Google maps and Google navigation and works perfect

No, they are production models which were sold at various AT&T and H/Palm stores.

Guys,
I have found another settings
Go to Program File -> DopodScv, you can find the "GPSRecorder.exe" file
The program runs under Traditional Chinese character, you may try it out
surely this only works if you have a dopod touch dual?
as your going into dopod scv
Yeah, have it but can't use . Is this another sign that HTC dual has GPS?
It seems like HTC has disabled Wifi, GPS & FM Radio on Touch Dual
Anyway, i'm selling my Touch Dual within these few days... Good luck to everyone
I wish that my finding helps you guys in investigating the Touch Dual, especially the Wifi & GPS
GPS: Why do we need it IN the dual - I much prefer the battery life dividends that my Bluenext GPS receiver brings me. 25+ hrs (quoted) continuous... if it was in the Touch surely it'd be a real battery drain?
WiFi is different though. I respect it's also a battery drain, but I wouldn't have minded that for the occasional use. There's no bluetooth wifi adaptors out there?
Just my take

*cough* Spectec MicroSD WiFi Adapter any use when it comes out??
Perfect, finally the MicroSD version. Problem is that there is no extra space left. I now use a 2Gb card for music and TomTom maps...
Interesting, but wonder how well that would work without an antenna...
As any way Itis not important!!?
NO GPS ANTENNA!!! We know how to Activate and Test GPS in a Qualcomm Chipset!!! NO ANTENNA!!!!

and also no tranceiver chip
Hi there Guys i know you have all stressed that there is no antenna for the GPS in the touch dual but i would just like to bring to attention one note, in the uk T-mobile happen to offer the touch dual , with a preinstalled navigation software called Copilot live7 which usess the intetrnal GPS, i have also visited the copilot website and they have confirmed compatability with HTC touch dual. so so so anyone got anything to that?
It's true, sort of
Built-in sat nav
With the CoPilot® version of the T-Mobile Touch Plus, you get live satellite navigation with on-screen and audible turn-by-turn directions. CoPilot� is powerful satellite navigation software for your mobile which performs just as well as a dedicated or in-dash navigation system. When your mobile has sat nav you save on two counts - you won't have to pay for a separate device plus you'll save yourself from ever getting lost again.

I recon they will ship it with a GPS module, just like they did with the Wizard.

Was this module purchased by XDA member ?

If so, any chance to get a report how it's working and perhaps some pictures ?
Thanks
I saw that too and was mighty interested. No pics of the hardware being sent or it installed in the gtablet so I'm just a little curious. I emailed the seller to ask if he's got more for sale or any pics...
I posted on this before. I think its a scam. I think they are selling a gps reciever that is not a internal add on. I got a gps unit for $20.
Scam with positive feedback from the buyer? (and it wasn't re-listed)
I don't think so.
does an external gps exist for this?

Sent from the awesome ZTab
Yep, I use blue tethered to my incredible which works great. Not sure if i'd want to crack open my gtab and monkey around with it to solder on a component.
I think you are missing the point folks,
internal would be way more convenient.
I wouldn't hesitate to solder it but still can't find the right module.

I bought the Gps module. Yes it fits the board and Yes it's installed.
I haven't finished installing it because you have to put power to the chip and install the Ant. Insturction are really not very good. I will get it finished but it's on the back burner now as I'm Modding my Viewpad 10 dual boot.

I really believe an external GPS would be much better, you can reorient to get the best signal. I have BT Delorme but can't seem to get it to pair even with BlueGPS.

When did they release Android 2.x that works on x86?! I would go out and get a Dell Inspiron Mini Duo if I could run Froyo or Honeycomb on it as a dual boot option...
I've posted in another thread about my external keychain GPS receiver from Freedom. It works fine if I want to use the GTab for navigation in the car. It may be similar to the receiver sold by this Ebay seller.
Here's what I have:

It'll be cool if there were cases made with gps built in for tablets.

2.2 x86 came out a few weeks ago finally. Still buggy I'm sure and probably not all that fast.
So how difficukt is the soldering work for tis mod?
Currently I have an E4GT, and my BT works great. I can connect my S9-HDs, PS3 controller, wii-mote without a hitch.
This wasn't the case with my OGEvo, the audio would cut in and out, and I couldn't connect any controllers without being on CM.
Is there any info about the BT stack on the 4G LTE? I'm asking here because I assume that it's different that in the OneX, if I'm incorrect let me know and I'll ask over there.
It looks like it has many more profiles then og 4G. I saw some has a wiimote paired with one x (although it is laggy)

I think they'll probably have the same stack. WiiMotes work fine with my One X, I didn't have trouble with latency. My Phonejoy also works fine. PS3 controllers work with Root via Sixaxis app, although I'm presently locked to stock while reviewing the handset for Telecom NZ, so haven't personally confirmed that.
Bluetooth audio should be much better, since BT 4.0 has much higher bandwidth for audio streaming (although the receiving device may end up being the bottle neck). If you have a receiving device that is also Apt-X capable then the audio will be excellent, basically the same as wired up to around 370kbps (the Samsung HS3000 is cheap, versatile, and has Apt-X).

Really? I'd be surprised if it didn't, since all the other One series phones do (maybe not the One V, but the others at any rate).
Yes, the international One X has BT 4.0

This is what the build.prop from the latest Jewel leak says:
Code:
# system property for Bluetooth Hardware information
ro.product.bluetooth=4.0
That suggests BT 4.0 to me.
Hope my icontrolpad works with it. From these comments it looks like it should. I like stock but a huge reason I want this phone is to run emulators on that awesome screen and have it propped up nice on that kickstand during my lunch hour.
I've already bought the Sixaxis app from the Play Store as I use that with my PS3 controller on my Prime. Would be great if it really does work on the Evo LTE as I wouldn't even have to spend any more cash.

You would have to really want it badly as it costs $175 on Amazon. And of course you would want someone to verify it would work before buying.

This will not work with our tablet per ASUS specs on their website. Per their specs, we have a MicroSD card slot. That card requires an SDIO slot ( Micro format ) which is a different type of device. SDIO enables Input / Output functions of devices like cameras / wifi cards / ect. It was the precursor of having USB host slots integrated onto a device.

Yea I was given a Chromebook 11 g3 recently but someone didn't put it all back together. Just missing the network card (Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 7260). I've got a few laptops(not currently working) and was wondering if the Chromebook would work with one of these(assuming it has the same interfaces of course).
