OK, I check it today afternoon on my way to home, than I can report to you. In the german forum ppcfreaks.de a member wrote that it can be also a problem of a ROM, a good ROM for the navigation should be the ROM from bepe, can you agree with it, I use the A.Z.T.O.R. V6 ROM GER. Or should it be problem of the RADIO. But I check it in a few hours, thanks for your help.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] zjay:
I push it, but I didn´t know what it does? Perhaps it seems to be a new initialisation....
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] qontherun:
I don´t think that changing the ROM help you a lot.

I tested 10 ROMs and I had the slow GPS performance at all ROMs.

Many folks say that you get better performance with your GPS with other ROMs, but on my Diamond it doesn´t helped me at all

to change the ROM. Same poor performance with alle ROMs.

I was so happy as I found the HTC GPS Tool. Itried the Tool

on 3 Diamonds and it solved the GPS issue at all 3 devices.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] zjay:
In a german PPC Forum, I get a tip that a RADIO ROM in combination with a bebeROM should be solve the problem. I flash it and test it now and report to you guys.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] qontherun:
Open the HTC GPS Tool. Choose your Option e.g. HotStart <<<< klick Open

Thats it.

I use Version 1.1.1.0 of the GPS Tool.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] albertjh:
It worked for my diamond with A.Z.T.O.R. SprintFlavor ROM and radio 1.00.25.08

This is the first time that I can actually use TomTom.

Thanks for this handy tool.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Vpp20:
I worked for me also for official 1.93 ROM Russian

Tested on iGo8 and 2 local GPS Nav programs

All of them are very responsive and accurate, really amazing

Instead of 20 minutes I get a fix in 30 seconds

However, it seems that QuickGPS ruins everything when it downloads sat info.

I turned it off, and will check later today/tomorrow

So far I am very optimistic
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] WhiteCell:
maybe...i'll try this too....

anybody knows if clean memory clears also QuickGPS ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Vpp20:
I will guess that "clean memory" also cleans the data QuickGPS downloads.

I cleaned memory yesterday in the evening before driving home.

GPS was fast and accurate after that.

I also tested it in late evening and today in the morning before I came to work. It was quick.

Then at work I connected to my laptop via Activesync (and I have an option "load satellite info automatically if connected via ActiveSync" in QuickGPS) and when I tested GPS in the open air at lunchtime it seemed to be slow again ( I waited ~ 5 minutes).

My conclusion so far - QuickGPS downloads garbade or unappropriate data

So unticked this option in QuickGPS and will test again to be sure that this is exactly Quick GPS who does this dirty trick
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] suiller:
yep, I've the suspect too that quickgps data aren't correct or a bit outdated.

I discovered also in the official telus diamond forum that IP addresses registered are different from the ones (traditional) recorder into quickgps app (there is a registry key for this)

Bye,

Davide
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Vpp20:
Do you know which registry key exactly ?

It will be funny to check if they are all the same for different countries or vary from country to country.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] WhiteCell:
Its much better after disabling QuickGPS and cleaning....

but i still got some minor lag (2 lengths of Arow)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] stmoravi:
All done and much much lag!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] harweyko:
I`ve also tryed it for 4 times to clear it but lag increased from cca 2 seconds to 5-6 seconds, what am I doing wrong? I`ve selected clear memory, changed baud rate to 9600 (also tried 4800, 56000), run the app, and as I got fix I stopped it, closed the program, run iGO8 nad lag increased... As I run quickGPS I also see that data was not erased there...:confused:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] zjay:
Yesterday I tested again, new ROM, new RADIO, HTC GPS Tool, QuickGPS deactivated......the lag is more than ever. My idea is that the problem can be my old navigon MN6, on the weekend I´ll tested it with TT7, if I have the same problem.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] mio75:
Hi,

I also tried the HTC GPS tool in hope to get rid of the annoying LAG :mad:

I did as described in first post but no luck - still 30-50m lag :(

Hope HTC comes up with a serious fix real soon!

-M
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] espg:
Hey all,

i tried tomtom 7 and there was about 30-50m lag but then i've tried igo8 and it worked without lag... so i think its a problem of tomtom navigators...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] suiller:
no many plp here noticed lag with iGO too

can you confirm also that the voice is "on time", while just the graphic (the blue arrow) is delayed?

bye,

davide
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] g-fall:
i confirm

cheers
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] suiller:
I've noticed (and many other plp here) this strange behaviour, anyway in my case I had always no far lags, just 1/2 sec (at max) delay on the screen, the voice was always punctual, a minimal delay can depend also by different situations, streets, building, signal reception... for ex I've noticed that with "just" 5/7 sats the point isn't really accurate (in theory should be enough 3 sats but this is another speech), but with 8/10 sats the point is almost perfect!

Like mentioned above I never suffered BIG lag issue, I never used quickgps so I never downloaded those updates, because I don't connect my device trought activesync (I use FreeBSD at home) and I don't have gprs/umts internet plan on my mobile.

The only thing that I do soon after every cook is to populate gps cache by launching gpstest or gpstool, because with TT7 first fix is really slow (it can take up to 20 minutes).

For the rest I've always used "lite" roms and believe or not I have no lag iussue, so there must be something related to the software/rom/driver/configuration or whatever but for sure not an HW problem.

Bye,

Davide

HTC_GPS_TOOL.cab This tool realy works for me.

Installed iGO8 on mda compact 4 T-moblie, iGO program says GPS connected, but stil got no signal. After using this tool the problem were solved.

be patient while tool searching for GPS signal.

THANKS. All you people here are verry helpfull.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] xavierdemon:
Sorry for the stupid question but when running GPS tool (clearing memory) am I waiting for the Mode 2 status to show "update"? Or will it just reporting "3D" do? :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] topspeclt:
I've posted this on another thread but I think it's relevant here too:

I noticed a lot of lag with Nav N Go 8 so I switched to TT7 and the lag was less (the actual position is the top point of the arrow).

I did the clear memory procedure using the HTC GPS tool without any improvement whatsoever.

I've noticed that the IGo8 graphics is processing a lot more frames per second than TomTom. Could it be a software issue rather than hardware?

I should also point out that civilian GPS horizontal position fixes are typically accurate to about 15 meters (50 ft). See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPS.

The best way to test if something is wrong with the HTC is to have the Diamond and Dedicated TomTom GPS side by side and see if they track the same. I tried this a while ago on my way to the airport and they were EXACTLY the same - even the timing of the announcements.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] ninja_pimp:
i want to know too!:)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] xavierdemon:
Ok after looking on other forums, 3D posting in Mode 2 area is correct :) however after trying the memory clear, the lag was still present :(

I think for people who are having massive lag, this will improve things but I experience 1 to 3 seconds lag, which doesn't sound bad but trust me, it still makes the Diamond rubbish as a navigational device, especially when my Ipaq and Artemis were spot on.

Am massively disappointed and hope that HTC are working their little socks off to fix the problem. On another note, I don't know if anyone else has noticed but on TTN7 & IGO8 they both report the current speed wrong, by 2-3mph and yes have tried in several other cars :). I presume this is part of the problem with the device.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Diagorn:
After used the HTC GPS tools, I have always lags in tomtom too.

1 to 3 seconds of different between Tomtom and the reality.

Do you have any solution ?

Thanking you in advance

Regards
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Dzhedaj:
I've just installed Wildberry V1 ROM and the HTC GPS Tool. After clearing the GPS memory with the tool I tried using Garmin Mobile XT.

The lag is still there, but it's like 0-1 seconds, really doesn't disturb me.

I've also tried walking, the phone screen reflects my movement right away, no noticable delay, doesn't matter if I walk at 2km/h, or 7-8km/h.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] ninja_pimp:
guys!when u r clearing ur memory,dun forget to press nav init also and wait for the tools to get a fix.GPS shd be back to normal after tat.:)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] topspeclt:
Been there, done that and I can confirm that it doesn't make a shred of difference! Tested using TT7 and IGo8. Both have lag but iGo8 seems a lot more than TT7.

I have also noticed this:

iGo8 uses %100 CPU power

TT7 uses around 75% power

Could high CPU usage be a causal factor for GPS lag?

I used a tool called GPSBot to lower the priority of the TT7 and Igo8 processes so GPS can use the CPU more. Again, this didn't make a shred of difference. The lag is still there.

I'm going to test HTC TP against a dedicated TT unit again (i didn't noticed anything the first time but I wasn't specifically looking for the lag).

Not happy...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] g-fall:
i read in another thread (don't remember which one) that at first a hard reset should be done. can this be the reason? i.e., to be sure that quick gps was NOT running before the GPS_tool action as quickgps is changing ip address?

just an idea...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] server2007:
I tried to do all, but after HTC_GPS_Tool look for satelites for some minutes it crashs. It offers me to send crash data to Microsoft. What is the problem in?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Dzhedaj:
It's not the device, it's you car. Every speedometer has an error margin, it can vary with different tires and cars, but it's something from 3-5km/h at speeds up to 100km/h and can reach even 10-15km/h at greater speeds...

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] alessandro.sgv:
how to use this program?

how is flowchart for this application?

is true? (see below)

1°open port (COM4 57600 for Diamond)

2°select clear memory and after that pres Nav.Int. ?????? I don't know

3°select information TAB and check MODE 2 ????? IDEM

Can you help me?

Thanks

Alessandro
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] dtjmsy2:
This is what I did

1. Open port as default values (COM4 57600 for Diamond)

2. Select clear memory and Nav. Int then select clear memory again

3. Select Information tab and wait until check Mode 2 - 3D

4. Close the tool and open TOMTOM or IGO

it should work now with no lag.

I notice that the lag problem get back after rebooting the diamond, then you need to do the operation again in order to fix the lag.

Apparently, there is some kind of buffer memory problem of the GPS, that' s why the clear operation fix the problem for me.

No lag, precision is pretty fair for use in big city like mine.

As this is a work around, HTC will come up with a software update I am pretty sure :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] xavierdemon:
I'm glad that works for you but doesn't improve the lag on my device.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] dtjmsy2:
Oh well, sorry mate, have you tried the steps that described above ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] xavierdemon:
:) I've tried all the suggestions from all the current GPS problem Threads. I think I'll just have to wait until HTC resolve the issue.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] amno1970:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Xen:
"Clear Memory" trick worked for me.

Here is detailed step by step instruction:

From the "Settings" Tab:

- select COM Port: COM4 (for Diamond)

- select Baudrate: 57600 (for Diamond)

- select "Clear Memory" from dropout under "Open" button

- click "Open" button

Now You can select "Information" Tab and wait till "Mode 2" under "GNSS DOP..." shows "3D".

Return to the "Settings" Tab, click "Close" and exit program.

Now Your GPS should fix signal much quicker.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] moyse007:
Yes i've made this , but still no test today the difference.

Personally I never use this mode as it goofs up display settings.

Maybe the firmware is corrupted; if so not worth reflashing if this is the only issue.

Try clearing the system cache and a hard reset.

Try turning off Developer options.

If that doesn't get it, boot up in Safe mode to rule out a 3rd party app causing it.

Factory reset but I don't recommend it...

[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] blackhawk:
Sounds like a Samsung firmware bug.

Samsung will substitute smaller chipsets and components as needed during a production run.

So the base firmware may not be compatible with those devices unless Samsung recognizes the issue and modifies the instruction set for the firmware.

Congratulations, you're now a Samsung beta firmware tester...
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] nyamekye:
its a hard life
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] blackhawk:
Eventually Samsung may role out a fix.

If what I described above is the case Samsung is dependent on customers sending the phone in for repairs to physically see which chipsets or components were used in the build.

If it can be fixed by firmware they will likely roll out a patch if they get enough blow back.

If it can't be patched, replacing the mobo is their only solution.

If what I described is the case, sending it in under factory warranty is the only guarantee it will be fixed.

I've been using a DuraForce Pro 2 on Verizon for about 18 months. Visual Voicemail worked beautifully until I had to send the phone back to Kyocera for repair. Kyocera sent me a new phone, but VVM stopped working. I notice that the app icon is slightly different--the old VVM icon's corners were more rounded on the old phone than on this one. I suspect that the problem is that the new version of VVM isn't working with Verizon's services. It seems to be an entirely different app that only tells me how many voice mails I have. Does anyone happen to have, or able to extract, the visual voicemail APK file for the DuraForce Pro 2?
