Fix for diamond gps (For Telus anyway)

:):):):):):):)

Hey, for everyone who is having difficulty getting a gps lock with the touch diamond (Only tested on a telus brand diamond)

http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=35592

the link above has a fix for the gps registry settings under the title: GPS Registry Settings. I can now get a lock with about 10 seconds, the link may not work from a pc, so you may have to visit the site from your diamond to get the .cab file. As I said before i have only tried it with telus diamonds but it may work with other carriers also

i've been reading and reading....and nothing makes any sence....

either there are many different problems with the gps on the htc diamond... or they are messing about.

when i first bought my phone i got a lock on google maps really fast... under 1 minute.. then i installed tom tom...igo etc ... worked fine...

after a few times of light usage ... i could hardly get a lock...only yellow dots on igo....

the only way to get a lock was in a moving car... with the phone on the dashboard. and i still got signal losses.

this is the main feature i bought the phone for....and this is the most problematic feature for diamond....

anyway ...i started reading this thread ...and realised that not only my phone has this problem ...but other people... and very similar problems ... i deactivated the incoming beams BT option.... messed around with the settings ...and i got..no device found.... after that i messed around a bit more with the settings ...i got a lock in a matter of seconds.....

honestly i don't know what to belive...nobody here can say for sure what is it that's messing our gps signal... nor can i... it just doesn't make any sence...

if it starts lagging again..i'll post

External GPS ?!?!

:confused:

Just recieved a replacement Diamond from o2

Installed Igo but it doesnt seem to work, went into the system tab to update GPS but it say external GPS and not quick GPS as my old phone!! :mad:

Does this mean ill need an external device? shouldnt GPS be built in? or do i need to configure it?

I did try to connect but only got the yellow dots in IGO!

Anyhelp would be appreciated guys

my problem with device not finding GPS is fixed by following this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=292178&highlight=manually , i dont know why, maybe i have also done something else, but hey it works for me, hope this help someone else.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Ziggy95:
My problem is quitely similar.

TomTom is always searching a fix.

I tried GPS Test and in the beginning, it was finding 1 sat then 2 then now usually 8.

Seems to be good but all this sat are in yellow so with a bad reception. Sometimes , 1 is in green during few seconds.

It's not enough because tomtom, with the same setings, can't fix.

One time , tomtom won and give my position during few seconds.

It seems a lack of power to receive correctly data.

I tried everything. I had a cruise before with no problem (i am not a beginner).

Was sad to see that .cab in page 9 was not accessible anymore. Can somebody can share this cab ? It was changing registry settings.

Bybye

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] rozner:
I had given up on my HTC Diamond as a GPS a while ago. When I first got the phone it was offered as a service from SFR for 10 euro / month and I got 2 months free. With this it worked fine and then afterwards stopped. I figured there must be a way for it to work without SFR since any GPS unit I can buy doesn't require a cell phone plan. Since I don't have a car it wasn't really an issue and using the cell towers Google maps could usually find me within 500m which is good enough for walking.

But this weekend I'm renting a car and driving places so I decided to look into this again. So basically turning off the A-GPS with the advanced configuration utility fixed it. I think maybe the A-GPS relies on info from the cell phone provider (correct me if I'm wrong, just making assumptions here). So this works now with Google maps. Haven't tried with TomTom or others but I assume the same fix will work.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] icelander_1983:
Hi,

I seem to have gotten the GPS to work on my Diamond. I didn't install any software or modify any registry. Also, No Quick GPS either.

The exact steps I followed are as follows.

Problem Defenition:

I have an HTC touch diamond.

Rom 2.03.707.2 WWE

Radio: 1.09.25.23

Protocol version: 52.51.25.26U

I updated my Tomtom 6 to Tomtom 7 and everything fell apart. I could not get a GPS fix even on the roof top. After trying a lot of different solutions including registry tweaks, burning other roms, installing apps like GpsTuner and all the solution was still miles away.

Solution That worked:

1) Installed my rom 2.03. Booted my device. No other software or any thing installed. Just the factory settings.

2) I checked the following registry key on my diamond

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver\Drivers\GPSOneDevice:CommPort

Its value was GPS0:

3) On my touch diamond.

Start - Settings - System - External GPS

Select GPS Program Port: COM0

Hardware - GPS Hardware Port: None

Baud Rate 4800

Access: Manage GPS Automatically.

Click Ok.

4) Installed TomTom 7.910.9185. In tomtom I selected - Other NMEA Receiver -> Baud rate 4800 - > COM0

5) AGPS is by default disabled on my mobile.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\SUPL AGPS:EnableAGPS

Its value is 0

6) Went to roof top for good gps reception. I got a fix less than 20secs. I also tried rebooting the device after sometime and again got a fix within a minute.

No other changes were made to the mobile. But, it works fine.

I will test this further with Quick GPS and post any changes.

Finally, If anyone knows what the registry entry

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\SUPL AGPS -> GPSMode

is about? Please do post it here.

Hope this solves all the GPS problems on Diamond.

Regards,

Krishna

Solution!!!!

Hi Guys!!! I dont know if your problems have been solved or not, but im just simply posting the solution to it tht got me working in seconds, before i was getting 0 satellites on the Roof of my house, as i used these settings i got 10 Satellites in abt 15secs :D

and dont think tht the HTC Diamond's GPS isnt good, its perfect, using these settings it showed me standing on the roof of my house, exactly where i was :) so its not the GPS, we just didnt knew earlier how-to configure it :D this is a perfect device :D just bought it 2days back and i admit the fact tht

NOTE: I got half the configurations from the HTC Wiki, they didnt work for me, i customized them a bit and they worked so i posted them hear :D

gps fix problem still there

Hi all,

I buy a diamond last month from second hand. The seller assure me that gps was working buthe made a hard reset before givin' to me.

Since I have I had try everything from forums (quickgps, manually download ephemerides, modify registry, battery checking, soft or hard reset, use HTC GPS Tool 1.1.1 for diagnose, gps stay on in front a the ocean more than 30 min.......)

with the same result :

gps programs can speak nmea with the ship but receive no satelite data(neither sat numbers nor fix, just many #) :(

The only thing seems to change is sat numbers appears with some other radio but still not fix. And I try many

Does someone have another idee ???

Thanks in advance

Occurs to be the physical damage of antenna, or cable from the Motherboard to GPS is damaged . This usually for the Diamond :)

Sorry for my English :)

However, you from Russia? :)

Intresting to know, thanks. Maybe if I grew some balls, I would dismantle the phone, but luckily I have a bluetooth gps dongle from when I had a wizard, so I think I will give the dismantling a miss! :D

GPS & bluetooth on HTC Diamond

Hi guys,

I had the same problem that the GPS was no found neither by iGo8, TomTom, GoogleMaps, or the HTC GPS tool and this for a while. I noticed also that the satellites update hangs at 100% without doing anything. Today I remembered that a couple of weeks ago I made a transfer via bluetooth. Since then I didn't use the GPS functionality. So what I did to make it working was to disable the all incoming beams. Now it is working. I tested with HTC GPS tool. This is a well known problem that the GPS and the bluetooth both are sharing the same COM port. My settings for GPS are COM4, baudrate 57600. I hope it helps ;)

ROM: 2.03.207.2 GER
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] 44R48:
Hi guys,

I have same problem with my diamond,

can anyone help pls?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] bedrov:
That is interesting

After I have tried everything whritten in this forum , and nothig helped. I have found in an iGo thread (I am using it), that I must delete the the folder save in the iGo directory (so it will delete all stored settings and favorites of iGO).

and then the mirracle hapens :) after I have done this the satelites were GREEN.

I will post again after a few days if I lose or I do not lose them again

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Hunter_I:
Another one with diamond GPS problem here.

For several months I've been using my Diamond's built-in GPS in iGo soft. Can't say that I liked the fix time (sometimes as long as 10 minutes) but I could live with that. Yesterday eve I used the GPS to got to some place, I was driving in some dence streets, so the fix was bad going from green to yellow every once in a while. So, I got to wherever I needed, did my stuff and went back.

BUT when I turned the iGo on all the satalites were red, and I didn't couldn't fix since then. Satalit map shows all satalites red (10 or more) none of them are getting yellow. And the problem isn't with the iGo soft, I have some other soft I used to use (which worked) and it's can't fix on sat either.

Tried updating the QuickGPS table. Incoming Beams are disabled. All the software "sees" the GPS device at the same location as before (no error messages of any kind), but, the GPS just doesn't lock onto the satellites.

Any ideas?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Hunter_I:
Hello? Anybody there?

Is this forum dead or something?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Hunter_I:
Diamond GPS - no satellites signal

So, it IS a dead topic.

Well, if anyone ever has the same problem again, and doing search stumbles upon this topic, here's how I solved the problem.

The problem:

All of a sudden, the signals from satellites stopped being received, so, there was no fix even after a whole hour of waiting. That happened in several different navigation programs (e.g. iGo, Wze, Freemap etc). All programs were able to detect and communicate with the GPS chip, but no satellite info was received.

Solution:

Downloaded a HTC GPS Configuration program. Contrary to the popular solution, doing a hot/warm start did not help. So I tried a cold start. After 20 minutes first satellite signal was detected, then within 1 minute I had 9 "green" sats and great fix.

Close the GPS Config tool, start the navigation prog -> works perfectly.

If nobdy said it yet then try having Bluetooth active while using GPS it should solve the GPS not being able to get any satellite lock problem I think it is actually mentioned in the Diamond Manual.

I've used my Diamonds GPS several times no probs there as long as the Bluetooth is active.

Unlocked Verizon phone. It will not charge in normal or safe mode. Bring up bootloader, go to "Factory mode" and it charges. Have tried numerous cables, power adapters and a factory reset. None of these has worked. Any other suggestions?
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] Deleted member 2092952:
I'm curious as to why its unlocked. If it was to only move it to another service or if you or a previous owner had installed a custom rom or something else.

A custom rom or could introduce battery charging issues. If its stock rom then it could be a physical problem that for some reason is improved by going to the bootloader. I would expect either that or an OS bug that is prevalent even after factory reset - in which case if a custom rom doesn't fix it then the phone may be regarded as borked in my opinion.
