[P3600 General] macmacman:
I have an SPV M700 (HTC P3600).

I have the following problems with it:

Speaker phone is rubbish, got it set up in the cradle in my car and can hardly hear the person i am talking too. Anyone agree?

GPS!!!!!! TomTom will not work and is driving me know where except slowly insane. Same problem as other post, no mention of GPS in menus and tomtom just says No GPS device! Other post talked about ROMs? Sorry i have no idea what these are or how to install them. Any chance of someone giving me a quick dummies guide. It seems to work for other person having the exact prob.

Most internet pages don't come out too well, expected better from the IE windows mobile. Not used it before, you see.

Purchased unlocking off ebay, don't think its worked. Is there a link to unlocking on this forum?? Will i loose my Orange menu and colours when unlocked.

Keyboard. When i tried this phone out in the shop the keyboard was like a phone pad (press 2 twice for letter B) but can't find on mine, just normal one, transcriber etc??

PLEASE PLEASE spend a minute helping me. I am looking at the MDA compact III on t-mobile but just been told tomtom won't work on it by them. Don't know what speaker phone is like on it either.

Kind regards

George Nottingham...... Relax, get a brew, take a breath..........

First a question.... have you read all that there is here.... and which version of Tom Tom are you trying to run, you need 6.03 an "most" of the problems go away other wise....... go read this lot:-

after reading AT LEAST the first post of each, upgrade the rom, there is an Orange .cab (file thinggy) knockig about to put all your orange setting and front page back on after sorting out the software and getting TT running.

As for the speaker phone... never been happy with mine, but use SoreTooth in stead ;)

More tea and biscuits :)
[P3600 General] macmacman:
Thanks deech for your quick reply. All that talk of tea and relaxing really worked!

Ok i have just checked the tomtom version and is it 6.00. Never i have been so happy that i have out of date software! Only concern is i tried to run Orange's Sat Nav (yes they have there own sat nav that comes sort of free, funny thing is when i rang them up they didn't know they did!). Anyway that didn't pick up a GPS signal either, ummmmm.

What is SoreTooth? Searched for it but can't find anything.

Any luck with my other two moans:

Purchased unlocking off ebay, don't think its worked. Is there a link to unlocking on this forum?? Will i loose my Orange menu and colours when unlocked.

Keyboard. When i tried this phone out in the shop the keyboard was like a phone pad (press 2 twice for letter B) but can't find on mine, just normal one, transcriber etc??

[P3600 General] macmacman:
I've been looking around the site, it look great. No idea what anything means! I'll learn, I guess.

think the keyboard thing i was banging on about is called Phone Pad?

I wonder if i can get WM6 on my orange spv m700....

I can work out how to bluetooth pictures to my mac. Oh no thats another thing to worry about, syncing with my mac! The missing sync looks good?

This is stressful. Remember what deech said George, make a brew!

:)
[P3600 General] deech:
ahh ummm right.... missed the other moans......... :)

Right Oranges own Tom Tom thing FORGET IT, get real and proper Tom Tom (from wherever ;) ) It's limited and trial and well frankly not worth the effort.

The Phone pad thing... get PhonePad International (search round these fora) it's here ;)

As for the unlocking....... search round here for CID and ... summat else Unlocking. No if you just unlock, then you wont loose the Orange Branding.. however why you would want that is beyond me... but hey ho.

In Tom Tom have you checked the gps receiver?..... Set it to Other NEMA and com 9 and baud rate... well anything you want from what I can see.

In TTT6.03 there is anew option... "Use Built in Reciever" and after that it ermmmm just works.......

Think I got it all now......... right time for some tea here too :P

And sorry for the red herring.... soretooth = Bluetooth... can be troublesome on occasion ;)
[P3600 General] deech:
Yes you can, follow the posts I gave earlier and robert will be your mothers brother, I did it, just remeber back up any "special" ring tones, and phone book etc etc, and afterwards grab the Orangesettings.cob, to put the mms gprs etc all back in place :eek:
[P3600 General] macmacman:
Can't beleive i fell for that! I gave sorethooth a proper search as well. what a plonka. I think it comes with being a novice to all this, it takes over your life a bit and your mind only thinks about tomtom v6!

Ok cheers agian for your help deech, much appreciated.

Just one more thing if you will be so kind.

Now you have equiped me with all the links to keep me up till the weekend, i think i want to hard reset my phone. Didn't like the ebay unlocking thing and hope its hasn't buggered it up. Thinking i could start fresh? Good idea. Maybe just a factory reset?

G
[P3600 General] deech:
's upto you or just re-flash it and have done with it, tbh I have no experience with unlocking these... now Nokias onthe other hand ;)

Dont think you'll hurt it by doing a Hard Reset, however I dont know if it'll re-lock the phone or what, might be one for a seperate thread?
[P3600 General] NeilM:
Hi macmacman- you still need to slow down!

I'd actually go against the grain here and say don't consider flashing your ROM until you are decently competent with Windows Mobile. There isn't a great deal of difference, and the M700 comes with a late version of WM5.

Why did you need to unlock? Are you going to use a different SIM card in it? Some unlockers actually work by replacing the Radio part of the ROM, and some of those are NOT GPS enabled. Go into Settings/System/Device Information and check the Radio version- it must end in .11 for GPS to be enabled. All stock Orange M700's come with GPS enabled. If yours is incorrect you must install un updated Radio stack.

As Deech says, set TTN to either Built-In, or Other NMEA using COM9 and 57600 Baud, then GO OUTSIDE WITH A CLEAR VIEW OF THE SKY to obtain a first fix- it will take up to 10 minutes the 1st time. If TTN has detected your GPS, the status line under the map display will say 'Waiting for Valid GPS Signal' - if you see that you just need to wait till it amalgamates all the sat signals. If you still see 'No GPS Device', then you either have a faulty device, or the Radio ROM isn't working properly.

Either case would be a cause for replacement by Orange- another reason not to flash the ROM, because by doing so you invalidate the warranty.

Keep trying- its worth it!

[Edit- Oh and T-Mob are talking bolox- any WM5 device can run any WM5 program. But, the Compact III is an inferior device- no WiFi, slower processor, and MicroSD card as opposed to MiniSD. Micro cards are slower, and more prone to file system errors]
[P3600 General] NeilM:
A hard reset can be good to clear unwanted operator customisations, especially if you reset before the Operator Customisations start, but with the Orange M700, this can lead to loss of some services, especially Orange World, which is built into the main ROM and Extended ROM. Disabling the horrible Orange Today application is no bad thing though!

Generally once a device is unlocked, it will remain that way through hard resets and even ROM updates, but there are different unlocking methods:

SIM unlock just allows a different operators SIM card to be used (Orange and T-Mo both SIM lock their WM phones)

CID unlock allows other ROM versions to be installed (ie if an Orange device is not CID unlocked, you can only use Orange ROM's)

SPL unlocking changes the Bootloader (akin to the BIOS) to allow any valid ROM to be loaded.

All the Unlock and ROM tools are availiable via the Trinity Wiki on this site- too late for you, but don't go near the Ebay ones as you don't know what you are getting :(
[P3600 General] macmacman:
Ok i have checked my Radio version under Device information and it says 1.16.00.00 so you right that doesn't end in .11 and so my GPS doesn't work. So i need to install un updated Radio stack.

Like you said NeilM the m700 come with .11 so something has changes this? Could have been that dodgy ebay unlocking software? I bet orange will reject my devise if i send it back for that reason!! damn it.

I am thinking of going onto t-mobile for the web and walk package. Actually i don't like the orange menu so don't care if i loose that too.

So i just need to install un updated Radio stack and so a SIM unlock. easier said then done?

Cheers NeilN and deech for your help so far. George
[P3600 General] NeilM:
Yes- your 'dodgy' unlock software has corrupted the radio stack.

You first need to 'super CID' your device to allow a new Radio ROM to be added (though as your current radio is non standard this has probably already happened);

Head to This Thread which has links halfway down the 1st page to a CID Unlocker, and Radio 1.41 upgrade.

That ought to work, but make sure to follow ALL the instructions!
[P3600 General] macmacman:
Ok I have hard reset my phone, so i am now back to where i started and hopefully there is no trace of my dodgy ebay unlocking rubbish?

First thing i did after resetting is check my Radio version under Device information and it still says 1.16.00.00! That must mean it was shipped to me like that.

Anyway i need to change that to .11 so i have gone to here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=305250

and downloaded the 2) Update GSM: GSM_1.41.00.11

Is the right? Sorry for being a dullard if wrong.

Anyway i downloaded it put it in a new folder on my devise then went to it on my devise and it said this is not a valid pocket pc app!

Have i got the wrong file?
[P3600 General] NeilM:
No sorry- hard resetting DOES NOT go back to how it was supplied- it goes back to the latest ROM flash, be it the Radio or OS, so you are stuck with the dodgy radio stack until you upgrade it.

I don't know the specifics of the Radio ROM you have downloaded, but 1.41 is the current latest.

The file MUST BE RUN from the PC, with Activesync connected. If your device is correctly unlocked, then it will load into the PPC via A/S and initiate the update process. In the course of that, A/S will stop, and a generic USB connection established.

At that point you may get a 'Cannot Connect' error, and the screen of the Trinity will be multicoloured bars. You now need to run the update file once again, and the ROM Update progres bar should start. If it won't proceed, then you need to take Step 1 from the page you cited, and load the Hard SPL updater, which will allow the Radio update.
[P3600 General] macmacman:
Ok its going well, i've managed to change my radio to.11 which i pretty proud of to be honest!

Now then i have tried the terrible orange sat nav just to see if the gps would work and it did! Next i tried my TomTom v6.00 and it didn't work. Do i definately need 6.03?

Feeling more confident now. might upgrade to WM6. If i go hear

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=305250

LVSW_Trinity_WM6_v2.0.1.1

HowTo:

1) Update SPL: HARD-SPL

2) Update GSM: GSM_1.41.00.11

3) Update ROM: 20070527_Trinity_WM6_v2.0.1.1

and download 1) 2) and 3) in order will that be ok? Will it get ride of my Orange today menus, hopefully they are a bit annoying!

I also would like Phone Pad international or something that can act like a standard textign phone pad when i am entering text for some reason mine is available to me? Think that might be an Orange thing as my mate has an older HTC and has it on.

Thanks for your quick replies so far, much appreciated.

[P3600 General] macmacman:
one more thing, i am about to purchase tomtom navigator 6. Jsut rang them up and the version they sell is the latest 6.06. Take it this will be fine considering deech said 6.03?

Thanks
[P3600 General] deech:
yup, basically in 6.03 they introduced "use built in gps" feature, so should be safe to assume 6.06 will still have this :)
[P3600 General] macmacman:
I've ordered my tomtom software. I've also upgraded to WM6 thanks to that thread all about it. Doing ok for a novice i think.

Last thing to solve is this keypad thing.. had a look for phonepad international but can't find it?

Looking through options on new OS and can't find any options for the keyborad. I now seem to have lost transcriber with WM6 too!?
[P3600 General] NeilM:
If you have already bought TTN6.00, you should be able the updated file FOC via TomTom Home, though you will need to pay if you want the latest maps.

Using TTN6.00, in the GPS settings, select Other NMEA Receiver (NOT Other NEA Bluetooth..), then Baud 57600 and connect to COM9

Once those are entered, you should be able to see the main screen status change to 'Waiting for Valid GPS Signal'; the GPS Status screen will have asmall revolving icon at the top right. This proecess can take some time and a clear view of the sky, so be patient!

Google PhonePad International on XDA Devs and you will find the file. It runs well on late WM5 or WM6, but as you found, won't run on the Orange version. It is a bit limited in that it doesn't have word completion, but is useful nonetheless.

Some of the WM6 ROM's omit transcriber, because it uses memory, and few people use it anyway :)
[P3600 General] ianl8888:
Newbie to HTC devices. I'm familiar with ETEN X500/WM5/WM6 etc, ROM flashing by card and all that jazz, but CID/SPL I don't know yet, so:

does SPL unlocking also cause CID & SIM unlocking? Or does each operation need to be done consecutively, if so any order?

what does CID & SPL stand for anyway, please?

and can the sat locations be updated via internet, like HP and ETEN etc ?

The reason for this is I'm waying an HTCP3600 against yet-to-be released ETEN X800
[P3600 General] NeilM:
I'm a bit hazy on the SPL bit- hard or soft SPL, but IIRC it is a bit like updating the BIOS on a PC, allowing a universal Bootloader to run, so other ROM components can be added.

CID is Country ID, adn is needed to unlock a device ROM for update. I belive SPL render CID unlocking unnecessary, but won't give you SIM unlock.

SuperCID (as in the IMEICheck products) achive a full unlocking of all components; some of the 'cooked' unlockers can do this as well.

The HTC 3600 uses the Qualcomm GPS chipset, which supports A-GPS, though no-one has yet implemented it. Our experiences with a number of HTC 3300 devcies which do have A-GPS, is that it only makes a very marginal difference to lock times.

I've found the P3600 pretty quick to acheive a lock, as long as there is a clear sky view, and you remain static till locked. TTFF while static is about 5 minutes, but if you try and get a fix while moving it can take 10-12 minutes.

[Edit: sorry for the typos- typing too fast!]
[P3600 General] ianl8888:
NeilM

Thank you for the quick reply.

On the ETEN X500, TTFF is about 20 seconds, 30 if moving ... of course, you need updated sat locations for this - without them, 2-3 minutes (SirfIII)

The X800 uses the same GPS chipset as the X500. SuperCID etc as a concept doesn't exist, just ROM upgrade off a PC or card.

Full specs for the X800 are not yet reliably known. The big issues (apart from firm price, also unknown) seem to be SDHC compliance (likely not) and VGA refresh rates.

Again, thank you for the information.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MetalmanIX:
So I got my hands on a problematic OPO a few days ago that wont charge at all.

It wont charge when connected to the wall charger nor when plugged in a PC. The only way the previous owner was able to charge it was taking to a phone repair service where they would just take out the battery, charge it using an external battery charger and put it back in. Then the phone shows 50% battery all the time, never goes up or down, and lasts around 2-3 days. The owner got tired of visiting the repair shop every 2 or 3 days to do that and handed it over to me. I thought the USB flex cable is the problem so I ordered this one: (oops cant post links) to replace it but it wont be here for another 3 weeks.

So these are the facts so far:

Battery has been replaced, so its not a faulty one(or so I have been said)

Charger and usb cable are OK as I have tried a few different ones.

Phone connects to the PC and can browse it for files.

When switched ON and plugged in battery says "Not Charging"

When switched OFF the green battery animates to 100% but never goes up more than 50% permanently.

Any ideas on where I can find an external battery charger(not a powerbank)? Ebay and Aliexpress don't seem to have anything like that.

Did I make the right choice ordering that flex cable or did I only waste my money?

Any ideas as to what the problem might be? Anything I can try at the moment?

Thanks in advance

Battery Stuck at 50%

Hi All,

Even I have faced this issue 2 days back. But it was resolved when I replaced my battery with the new one. First thing is that the replacement battery should be empty for eg. 0%. After you inserted the replacement battery keep the phone for 1/2 hr charging. After 1/2hr press the power button once if its boots fine and then the battery percentage will immediately reset from 50% to 0% and starting showing the charging animation once you boot into the OS. Whereas if it doesn't boot then press and hold the power button for atleast 5 vibrations without the micro usb connected to the power source. Then again keep the phone for charging for 5mins and again press the power button. This time it will definitely boot into the OS and the battery percentage will reset from 50% to 0% and it will start charging. Then keep the phone for charging until it reaches 100%. I hope this would help all the people who are facing this kind of issues.

Just had the same problem after replacing a battery. when looking at the battery connectors, the bottom right of the 6 contacts is bad.

Solution, take your battery back and tell them to give you another one. If it is on the board, clean it or replace the motherboard.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teongseng:
I found the issue! my OP3 has the same problem after i dropped my phone 1 week after i changed my battery. Becoz i did not put double sided tape when i replace the battery, the battery connected ripped off the connector on the mainboard, hence, only half of the connector on the motherboard now. So, technically speaking, the battery only connected to the mainboard with half the connector. Not sure if you understand what im talking about
