ok, just brought the Kaiser to Singapore's Service Center and am informed that its a known issue.

We now have to wait for the new ROM.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] vblues:
There's an update to the MapKing R12 software for TyTN II which supposedly fixes this slow GPS update problem.

http://www.mapking.com.sg
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] qwise:
I did and it is working like a charm. I used GPSGate 2.5 set with a virtual Com 1, with the mapking R12 GPS set to Com 1 at 115200 Baurate, with almost instantaneous GPS lock on the moment the mapking software is started. The data streaming is very smooth. Give it a go while waiting for a rom fix, you have nothing to lose...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Sleuth255:
I got $5 that says the fix will be to increase the transfer speed from 4800 bps to some usable number. My Garmin GPS10 transfers at 115200.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] hangyong:
sorry, where did you get the information that the installation file is actually an update??? I dun see it written anywhere.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Koksie:
Sleuth255, you state that the baud max for the internal GPS is 4800, but I read 9600 and 19200 on this forum as well. GPS viewer seems to work with 115200 as well, TomTom reports " no useful GPS signal", meaning it does see the GPS only the signal is too weak (concrete office etc), but I am curious where you got the info that 4800 is the max.

edit: Perhaps i am mistaken and GPS viewer and TomTom allow the settings to be on 115200, while the internal GPS only provides 4800 baud. I am curious how it works, is 4800 really the hardware limit and are my apps working with that, or can the hardware deliver higher speeds?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] vblues:
It is not an update. It is a full MapKing R12 installation which fixes the GPS issue. I've tried it and it works.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ExplodingLemur:
Actually, 5Hz and faster GPS receivers are readily available to consumers. Check out the Garmin GPS18, there's a 5Hz (updates 5 times per second) variant, or search Google for 5hz GPS: https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?pID=8631

The restrictions on GPS receivers are on altitude and speed, 60,000 feet and 1,000 knots respectively (see section (c) at http://www.fas.org/spp/starwars/offdocs/itar/p121.htm#C-XV )
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] hangyong:
I dun think its a mapking R12 issue as I tried Mapking 2007, and the same thing is happening.

the exact same Mapking 2007, as in the same installation file, was used in the Trinity, and there is no issue.

but thanks for the update!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Sleuth255:
I believe that the bug is in the GPS multiplexing software (the GPS control panel app). This software uses the actual hardware port/speed then allows multiple devices to access this via an outbound port. If software directly access the gps system, it can bypass this and this is what the R12 fix does. Other more generic programs (like Google maps) access GPS via a COM port. Giving them the com port assigned by the GPS control panel app allows them to connect & also allows multiple gps devices to share the GPS itself. This is the case when I connect Google Maps and VisualGPSce at the same time for example.

The bug is that the multiplexer won't allow more than 4800 BPS to be selected for the actual hardware itself: (none) for the port and 4800 for the baud rate on the hardware tab.

If you're totally confused as to why the GPS multiplexing software is useful, then consider my own Kaiser configuration:

On my Kaiser, I have my Garmin GPS10 set up as a COM8 bluetooth serial device. This is because this sensor is a differential GPS device with an accuracy of 1 meter (very useful when hiking in unknown wooded areas). So, to change GPS devices, I simply go to the GPS app in System settings and, on the hardware tab, set the Port to COM8 and the speed to 115200. Now all my GPS apps (google maps, VisualGPSce & Terrain navigator) which were set to use COM4 will see the bluetooth GPS instead of the builtin device. And, they can all be running at the same time.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] MikeChannon:
Hi Sleuth

Good to see you got your Kaiser.

I think you're the first to mention running a bluetooth GPS in addition to the built in. I do this also and have had no problems. BUT there are several reports of a bug regarding the "External GPS" settings in as much as they say if you change things here it will totally screw the GPS and there is no recovery possible without a hard reset. (originally reported by Paul - Modaco).

I have seen absolutely no sign of this problem and I must have fiddled with every setting in it.

Just wondered if you had any experience of problems with Ext GPS settings. In other words, does it really screw up the system or is that folk just get in such a muddle with the settings that a hard reset seems like the only way out. (wouldn't have thought that true of Paul though!!)

Mike
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Sleuth255:
Here's more info:

I went back through my configuration and noticed that the GPS cpanel app doesn't allow any changes on the hardware tab to stick. I noticed this b/c VisualGPSce wasn't changing to a blue blinking light (differential fix) when my Garmin GPS was selected. Then I spotted that the right LED was blinking blue then orange indicating that the internal GPS was active still. I actually had to select the hardware port itself (ser8) to get info from the GPS10 sensor.

This is a pretty big bug in the gps app IMO.

While working on the Hermes GPS project, we used an RIL shim to expose the Hermes GPS on COM7. This allowed the GPS app to select COM7 as hardware and multiplex the output. Apparently, the production RIL code for the Kaiser doesn't do this and we have a hardcoded GPS app instead.

Blech!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Sleuth255:
@mikechannon: I've "fiddled about" extensively with the hardware settings on the GPS cpanel app (external GPS) too and have also had no issues other than the hardware tab changes themselves not sticking. Certainly no hard reset issues :eek:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] hangyong:
I am using Mapking, and have set the it to connect directly to COM4:and I can connect even at 115200bps, instead of letting it autodetect.

however, the burst reception is still happening.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Sleuth255:
yeah, but com4 is the output port (called gps program port) from the multiplexer (unless you changed this on the programs tab of the external gps cpanel app) and always works at whatever the connect speed is set to. The "actual" port is unknown since the input port in the hardware tab always defaults to "none".
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] hangyong:
I see....

I did a search in the registry, and Qualcomm OneGPS is on COM1:

not sure if that helps in anything at all though...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Koksie:
Aha, I think I understand what you mean Sleuth255. The hardware port of the GPS is set to max 4800 by the External GPS applet in Settings (Strange that this setting determines the hardware port, since it is named EXTNERAL GPS). My Com4 can be set to any value I like, but because the External GPS Applet is stuck at 4800, the transfer rate will never be higher than that. Is this interpretation correct?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Sleuth255:
Yep. You got it. The "External GPS" applet itself was built for allowing multiple programs to access the gps device simultaneously. If it wasn't there, you could attach to the actual com port of the device but no other programs could access it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Koksie:
But by bypassing the applet, the baud-rate could be higher, since it is not limited to 4800. Or, by tweaking the applet in the right way, we could get it to accept higher baud-rates. The only question remaing is: How do we do this?

edit: and of course a second remaining question is: can the chip support higher rates than 4800?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Sleuth255:
That's the burning question in my mind...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] trublu:
Is it possible to use the tilt/kaiser as an external gps with a pc application? like using it as a gps with a program like microsoft streets & trips.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Sleuth255:
Not that I'm aware of.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] danjb:
You can see my experience of using the Tilt and it's built-in GPS for geocaching at this post. It did not work very well for walking / exploring navigation, and after reading further I think it must have Static Navigation enabled (see the 4th bullet down for a description of Static Navigation) . This might also cause the jerkiness in updates some people see.

I don't know if this only comes on when satellite reception is not very good, or if it is on all the time, but it might explain the jerkiness some people see but others don't. It could depend on how much stop-and-go movement people do.

The real question is how this "feature" can be disabled. Apparently you can disable it for SiRFstarIII based receivers. I assume it can be disabled on the Qualcomm receiver in the Tilt/Kaiser as well, but I don't know how.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] LGB:
I use both TomTom and MapKing, depending on where I am. TomTom runs fine on its own, but Mapking does not. Not on my Kaiser, it updates slowly and is difficult to follow where there are close-in turns. But any other GPS program that I have, for instance GPS tuner, running at the same time, fix'es the issue. I am not a techie here, but I can confirm that it works here ...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] emariu:
CAn anyone confirm that COM 1 is the hardware port for GPS in Kaiser?

I want my gps programs to connect directly to hard-port
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] cman6453:
Can anyone tell me why the built-in GPS receiver would just die? I'm using TomTom and it just sits there with the "No GPS device!" message. No blinking amber LED, nothing.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] johnt50:
Am I missing something on the GPS? I have been looking for a GPS with better accuracy (less than 5 meters). But, according to Garmin website, GPS10's accuracy is < 15 meters. So, it can be as many as 15 meters.

GPS accuracy:

Position: < 15 meters, 95% typical**

Velocity: 0.1 knot RMS steady state

Source: http://www8.garmin.com/products/gps10/spec.html
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] johnt50:
It happened to me as well. Here is what I did. Go to TomTom's perferance menu (I don't remenber exact name) and check the GPS status. There you will see the number of satellites it sees. Go back to map and TomTom will see the GPS.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] cman6453:
John - Thanks for your reply. I fixed it and it was a little simpler than that. Start > Settings > External GPS. Programs tab. GPS program port should be set to COM4. Problem solved. :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] erandhawa:
Mapking is a gps software its not signal software, if its used to recieve a better signal can you explain how, because from the 25mb install it seems more like software someone is just trying to sell.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Flying Kiwi:
Can't see why registry changes will workaround or fix things

I'm in the same situation in that I don't want to have to make registry changes - especially when installing the same program under Winmo 6.0 meant it worked fine. Running the installation cab creates the required registry entries and since it worked under WM 6.0 and no different registry entries would be created under WM 6.1 (it is the exact same version of Tomtom after all), I'm quite convinced the problem with GPS being broken under Winmo 6.1 is due to problems with the respective driver (possibly including the radio module - which has changed). HTC have shown TyTN II owners already that they don't care much for getting drivers as they should be the first time (and even with the second opportunity) so I've yet to be convinced otherwise. Just for once it'd be nice for HTC to own up to the problem and actually do something to address it. It's clear to me from my experience and from the postings here that the WM 6.1 update does break GPS. Has anyone had any success with HTC Tech Support over this issue?
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] celderic:
I've managed to compile 5.1.1 aosp,

here is my problem, fastboot doesn't seem to recognize the command i'm typing in '-S 256M' as stated on the sony site.

If i try and flash them the normal way, for example "fastboot flash system system.img"

it doesn't flash like this, i have tried on linux and windows.

I've attached screenshots to show my problem.

Edit- I should of said first, I can flash boot, recovery and userdata the normal way, but system.img hangs. Fastboot won't let me use the command listed on the sony site when flashing any of the partitions.

My compiled system.img seems fine and I can view and extract the files so I don't think it's corrupted.
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] logo_32:
issue '-S 265M' after 'flash'..!!!

SO it should be 'fastboot flash -S 265M system system.img'

And you need to specify memory breakdown for the system image only, as it has a massive size, for the rest skip using '-S 265M'

P.S.: You certainly seem to be new at Android compilation.. I would advice you to try checking other forums first... checking out what works and what doesn't before experimenting! Just saying!

[Sprint LG G3] curtvan:
Hi guys,

I flashed Resurrection Remix and it wouldn't start on the first boot. Restored nandroid and got stuck in bootloop, so I went back to stock using the TOT method (ZV4 then let OTA updates get me to ZVC), and I noticed that on my lock screen, it said LG instead of Sprint, and I noticed I had no data. So I tried the 3 dialer codes: ##UPDATE#, ##SCRTN#, and ##RTN#. After this I can now get 3G and it says Sprint on my lockscreen, but no 4g, In settings/mobile networks/network mode LTE/CDMA is selected. In settings/about phone/network, the mobile network type is either EvDo-rev.A or eHRPD(it goes back and forth). I'm wondering if its an APN setting but I can't find anything on this. Any ideas on how I can get 4G back? Thanks for any ideas.
