SierraDelta - is the little red light for GPS on ? On my Kaiser not. What I tried is to start TomTom and then make the pic - no change . same result ??? Do you change something in the menu of the camrea when you are under GPS photo ?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] peter7:
TomTom and Google maps are working excellent but the camera ???
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] Bacco:
When you switch to GPS photo, do you see a message indicating that the TyTN II is initializing the GPS?

It you don't, then something may not be set properly.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] peter7:

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] peter7:
"Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\Camera\

in the folder called P9 change the value "enabled" from 0 to 1."

When I change the 0 to a 1 is this value hexadecimal or decimal ? Mine is hexadecimal !

So where else the problem be ?

Pls help me !
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] Bacco:
Peter, it should be decimal. Try that and see what happens.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] Churchill:
Works perfect here. One thing is a shame thought that Vista does not seen to show this info if you look at the detais of the picture
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] rvdgeer:
The decimal systems counts like:

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17

The hexadecimal system counts like:

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F, 10, 11

So 10 in hexadecimal is 16 in decimal and 11 is 17...

But up to 9 everything is the same, so 1 in hexadecimal is 1 in decimal and 9 is 9.

When you use Resco Explorer with the registry add-in to edit the registry, you see both, hexadecimal and decimal, untill you edit the value. There you have to choose to use hexadecimal or decimal. After saving, you see both values again...

My point is:

There's no difference between 1 hexadecimal or 1 decimal, so 'changing' it won't help...

Please forget this:

Because in some settings 1 stands for 'on' or 'enabled' and 0 for 'off' or 'disabled' it's used nor as a hexadecimal number, nor as a decimal numer, but actually binary...

But that's another story...

:)

Note:

Did you try to change the external port in your GPS settings?

Because this is known to cause problems...

After that pretty much all you can do is hard-reset and try all over again...

I believe it's much safer not to change anything in the GPS settings menu...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] peter7:
Hexa oder Decimal - doesn`t bring a difference !

Wonderful - now I made a hardreset and it worked - but then started the backup file and the same result - it does`t work - so when I do the backup which part do I have not ! to backup - does this anyone know ????

Hi!

I am reading and searching but at the moment, can't find a solution to this.

I changed the registry and can now launch GPS Camera, but it does not connect.

I have also launched Tom Tom and got a fix, then GPS Camera,

and Google Maps then GPS Camera..

The software displays 'initialising GPS.... .... ' but doesn't succeed!

Any advice appreciated, back now to re-read and see what I can find!

any idea?

Just wait for about 30 secs, itll get a fix on your position.

And by the way, GPS needs line of sight, so if your indoors, your signal will be very weak/non existant.

I will check my registry again now, then go outside, and try again!

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] MikeChannon:
I had your problem. In fact I had given up meaning to look into it sometime. However, yesterday I accidentally slipped the scroll wheel onto GPS Photo. I decided to leave it to see if it would get a fix. It did.

No settings were changed. Like you I could run tomtom and others GPs apps. I ran quick GPS. I double checked ports etc etc. In the intervening two weeks the only things I had done were:

1

Reset the registry tweak to NOT show GPS Photo (as it was a pest trying to find a lock)

2

I installed jongma's Kaiser Tweaks application.

On the Kaiser Tweak application I selected Camera save GPS position.

I promptly forgot about it until yesterday when I tried it and it worked.

I do not offer this as a solution but merely a comment on the vagaries of life and TyTn II.

I used to work

I edited the registry yesterday and tested out the GPS photo, it worked fine, I pulled the image up on google earth and all was well. Today I tried again an it connects to the GPS, I have green gps icon on the camera screen, but now it is not saving the coordinates. The only things I've done are backup's, I have not restored anything. all other GPS programs (tomtom, google maps, live search, gps tuner) are working fine, and everthing in the camera program is acting the same way it did yesterday, only difference is there is NO gps info with the picture anymore.

Same problem

Hi all,

I have the same problem.... Did the reg hack - I know it works because I have the option of gps-photo. However, starting it just gives the message 'initializing gps...' which sits there until I get bored and cancel it. I can confirm using other GPS utils that I have signal and I have left it for easily long enough to require (10 mins) when other apps aquire after 15 to 20 secs...

Weird....

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] _kansei_:
Is anyone else getting weird GPS info?

I took a photo in Rochester, NY, USA and I this is in the EXIF

============= VALUES, GPS IFD ============

@0x0000296=662 : Latitude = 43,29,20

@0x00002ae=686 : Longitude = 77,48,4

I put those into google maps and that's in Kazakstan??

I uploaded the photo to flickr and it says the photo is in Lake Ontario, about 20 miles into the lake (toward Canada) --the lake is only about 10 miles from here, but still.. something just isn't right. Maybe it thought it had a fix but I should have waited a bit longer.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] 3waygeek:
Note that in Google maps, west longitude and south latitude are specified using negative numbers. I just did a GPS photo here, and Google Maps puts it about 50 feet south of my living room.

Sounds like you may not have had a good fix. Use VisualGPS or some other utility to determine how many sats you're seeing -- you need at least 3 to get a good position fix.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] kinski:
That is normal!

With WM5, there is always a deviation up to 300 m in east west direction. Its a software bug.

With WM6, the decimal place of the position is not stored in the exif data. Therefore, You have a deviation up to 30 m in all directions
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] pmow:
Umm, works for me. It's at my apartment. Good thing it doesn't do altitude or someone could pay me a visit :) I'm using the ATT rom.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] topps:
GPS photo

The good news on that is that 0 and 1 are the same no matter whether you are using decimal, hexadecimal (or binary for that matter).

But to emphasise the point, you do need to perform this registry hack on the TyTN II or else GPS Photo will not be an option.

Now...for me, I have got this piece working and am pleased so far. But I do find that the first time "GPS Initialising..." is run, it takes 2-3 minutes to find the satellites, even in open space. It is worse if you don't run the Quick GPS utility first. After that, the camera/TyTN takes a more reasonable 10 seconds from powerup for the GPS Initialising bit to run.

Has anyone found a way to speed up that first GPS fix so that it does not take 2-3mins to initialise the GPS satellites?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] rmg:
Same issue as others - stuck on GPS Initialising even though Tom Tom has a fix.

Finally found a work around for the failure to initialize. I started "Windows LIve" let it grab the sats then went to the camera (while keeping WL running), started the 'gps photo" and within seconds the green gps button on the camera came to life. Snapped a picture upload to GPS Visualizer and it was very accurate.

GPS Photo works for me but the pictures aren't saved on the phone! If i choose to send the picture as a mail it works, but if i just save it the picture dissaperas. I found a reg entry in the same place where you enable the function that is called "SaveFolder", it was set to "My POI". I changed that to "My Pictures" but it didn't help.

Any ideas?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] Softwaremaker:
Yes - same here. I have resigned to the fact that I have to copy from "My POI" folder...

Another question I have is a problem I have with the GPS Photo and how the geo information is stored.

From the EXIF metadata, it stores coordinates as space-delimited, eg: 2 18 54.

However, Google maps doesnt recognize this format. I had to manually edit through another EXIF tool to this 2 18'54 before Google Maps recognized it as:

2 deg 18, 54.00 north.

I see some of the folks here having comma-delimited geo values in EXIF. I suspect that i am missing something in my config/registry.

Can anyone share with me their GPS Photo registry, please ?

Now that its working.....

Now that alot of us has this working there is a new option under capture settings called grace period with the selectable options of ; none, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, or 30 minutes. So far i know this has nothing to do with the time out for initalizing the GPS since that setting remains unchanged in the registry nomatter what i set the grace period to. Also it has nothing to do with the review time.

So far my only guess is that maybe its a grace period on you GPS Fix in that it will only grab a fix every 5, 10 or 30 minutes or if set to none it will grab one for each time a photo is taken.

Is there any one out there that has this option standard so that maybe the setting are in the brand specific manual. Since even HTC doesnt even include the info of this option in the manual.
