Great response! I'll try Igo8 as soon as my Raph/Fuze lands!

Sweeney Russ: As you point out the software I ask about is definitely not the same. But since my current Wizard doesn't have GPS I'm limited in what I can use with just the internet connection. Can't wait to try out a real GPS solution and it sounds like Igo will be the one to get first.

Thanks all for your replies!

Has anyone come across a free GPS program that caters to hiking/raster/ortho imagery?

I was using my Tilt for hiking tips but roads are not really necessary. Is anyone using ESRI ArcPad on their Fuze? I was using it on my Tilt (30 day trial) and created a few good road maps, but noticed the Fuze has trouble finding the GPS receiver through ArcPad and the app doesn't fit entirely on the screen as it did with my old Tilt.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] seanvree:
I see you can only use IGO8 with a SDCARD? That kinda sucks.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Michael_514:
Hi guys,

I just got my FUZE on Friday, and spent the last 4 days setting it up! It's almost done! What an incredible machine!!

Anyways, I've always used iGuidance to find places. It's worked for me since the first version. I just set it up, and it's working well. The infamous Raph GPS lag has not prevalent over the past few days. It seems to be as good as my TyTN with an external BT receiver.

The maps are extremely accurate, too. There is a new 2009 version that I am curious about.

In any case, I'd love to hear more quick opinions about TomTom, Route66, etc. etc.

As I said, I am quite happy with iGuidance, but am always on the lookout for better warez!

ATT Navigator

Well, I just got my fuze, and right now there is a 30 day free trial of AT&T Navigator, everytime I have tried to "Speak" just my city and state, Snohomish, WA it tells me I want to go to utah, and finding a store like Fred Meyer just wasn't on there, on a good note when it notices you taking another route off the way, it tends to re-route within seconds, most of the time just telling you to make a U-Turn, this is my first GPS, so I have nothing to compare it to... I would suggest trying it for the 30 day free trial, but, I am not sure if I want to keep it past the 30 days...

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] telegraph0000:
You can run it off internal memory ONLY if you have enough to cover the basic program + map(s)...

Careful with the ***ez...may skate on thin ice...

Skip ATT navigator, no cell signal (dead zones), no location..
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ElBorba:
Whaaaaat!?!? ATT Navigator uses the cell signal for location!?!? That has to be a joke, right? Amazing that I didn't realize that! Fatguybp, you're right up the street from me! I'm representing Everett. Yes, Washinton's spleen...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] noellenchris:
No ,,, the maps are downloaded through the cell towers...you don't have static maps.... It does use the gps...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] kolombok:
I use tomtom mobile, great piece of software lots of POIs and options, maps are stored on my sd card which is great I think, they dont take more then 1.3gb. Although tomtom drains my battery pretty good, I dont care since I have a car charger (you can pick one up from ebay for $3.18 or get one in walmart for $9). If you dont care much about piracy I suggest going to demonoid if you have an account and downloading the tomtom and all the directions on how to set it up are included in the torrent.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] thehyecircus:
I use Google Maps what am I missing?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] rexian:
Turn by turn guidance with tts and a working gps far from cell towers. Also lot more options to plan a trip including simulation.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] thehyecircus:
Well I have 3G service, what programs are good to get? The first one on the page mentioned sounds great, but it also sounds slow and crappy.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] rexian:
For these GPS software with pre-loaded maps, you don't need data connection. I use iGO 8, also tried Garmin Mobile XT. They both work well but iGO has TTS and much better visual. Tomtom comes pre-loaded in some and the software is available for free (I saw some links in this forum), so just buy a map for your country/region and you are good to go.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] seanvree:
With IGO and Garmi, can you configure it to use the internal memory as opposed to using the SDcard?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] noellenchris:
did you install to device mem, then still install maps to SD for garmin? :confused:
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] seanvree:
Well that's what I'm asking, can you install the prog and maps to the memory rather than the SD card?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] noellenchris:
LOL....I misread...I thought you were saying to to install to main mem...sorry...

well I'm gonna second your question then...:)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] compounding:
I use GPSVP for offline maps. It draws a nice track of where you've been.

LOTs of features, but takes a while to learn.

It has three huge flaws

1. slow screen redraws

2. screen freezes after about 5 Raster image redraws.

3. Doesn't support google Hybrid maps yet.

I still like it better than OziExplorer or Tracky or MGM or a few others.

AND a new version just came out Today!!!!!

Maybe some of the flaws are fixed

http://code.google.com/p/gpsvp/
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] telegraph0000:
You could...but why?

sys.txt addition to tell igo to search internal mem.:

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] seanvree:
Because I have all of my music on my card.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] compounding:
Yep, they fixed some bugs.

Supposed to be able to used google hybrid/topo/terrain maps now, but

I haven't figured out how yet.

This is my favorite program in my Touch Pro!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] telegraph0000:
I do as well + all North America maps and puerto rico......and still have 8 gigs free on my card...(16gig card...heh heh heh)

I at one point had igo running with a minimum of a little over 450 megs (dc,md and va maps installed)...I'm sure you can get it running with your local maps for under that....Just delete a couple of songs to free up some memory...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ElBorba:

Hillarious! I was convinced ATT was selling a telemetry device. I got it now.

Side note:

Is it bad that I don't even have my Raph in hand yet and I'm already stocking up on ROMs and apps?

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] thedogger:
iNAV iGuidance is the best United States GPS navigation program I have found so far. It has quirks, but the text to speech feature (saying road names out loud) makes it so much better than anything else out there.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] kk0813:
I agree. I have been using IGuidance 3.01 for a long time and I like it. I didn't update to 4.0 but I will be updating it to new 2009 version soon. What version are you using?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] turbocycle:
iGO/OCN8 also has TTS capabilities (though disabled out of the box) and quite customizable. For example, there is an expressway that I travel that is abbreviated "EXPY". OCN would say it "ex pee", but this was easily fixed to make it correctly say "Expressway".
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] thehyecircus:
Any good GPS programs for, say, geocaching? You know, you enter in coordinates and it tells you how close you are?

And what is the consensus on the best GPS program? I love Google Maps for it's familiarity but it is never accurate enough.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] klef25:
Accurate maps?

I've used both google maps and ATT Navigator during the trial period and am disappointed in the accuracy of the maps. ATT Navigator seems to route quicker paths than google, but neither of them know when roads have been closed for the next year for replacement and keep using those as the most direct route.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] mindfrost82:
Have you noticed the issues I described here regarding the ETA accuracy?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Operation619:
Agreed as well. I've been using IGuidance for 5 years. Great program. Unfortunately, there is no live traffic and I didn't like toggling to google maps to check status. I just recently switched to GarminXT and a still evaluating it. So far, so good.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Jumranb:
Have you tried BasicGPS? (http://www.basicgps.co.uk/) I have downloaded and installed it, but not used it yet - I am completely new to GPS and geocaching and everything, but it's free and designed specifically for geocaching.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] 8525Smart:
Hmm, seems like I'm a bit late to the conversation, but to add my own opinions. Here are the GPS software I tried so far: Tomtom 5-7, AmazeGPS, Google Navigator, and Microsoft Live Maps. All of these should work fine on the Fuze, though I didn't necessarily used them all on the Fuze.

1) Tomtom - Easily the best of the bunch from my experience. Great performance, routing is usually good, and multiple features. Also a great interface. Tomtom 5 and 7 are the most distinct (6 is basically a lesser version of 7). Tomtom 5 has the advantage of selectable maps making it the most space-friendly and it performs better due to lower requirements. Disadvantage is that traveling between states is inconvenient because you have to switch maps. TT7 has entire USA, but requirements is higher (doesn't matter if you're using Fuze) and less space-friendly.

My favorite of the bunch so far is TT7.

2) AmazeGPS - Great GPS software. It is free, the interface is well crafted (it seems to be based on Tomtom actually) with good features, and the navigation is not too bad. What makes it difference is that when using it, it will show a screen with an arrow indicating your next turn, and the distance before you reach this turn.

It's not for someone who prefers to see the road they're traveling, but for what it's worth, it works fine for me. I was able to take it on a test it the directions it gave were good.

3) Google Navigator - I did not like this at all. It was intensely difficult to use and very complex (surprising considering it's Google). I was unable to get it to work well at all. Its bigger brother, Google Maps, is preferred by me.

4) Microsoft Live Maps - I had a hard time using this too, which is too bad because I was really enticed by its featureset, which included weather, gas prices, business look-up, and so on. The features were actually better implemented than with Tomtom (from my opinion), but again, I couldn't get it to work. I may try again with this later, though.

Overall, I prefer a combination of TT7 and AmazeGPS. Hopefully, I can get the Live Maps to work fine later on, though.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] kekele:
totally agree :D:D
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] argentocruz:
I have a TomTom One v3 in my car and I compared it to my Touch Pro running TomTom 6 which has an identical interface and is essentially the same nab software...

Outside there was no difference. Both picked the same satellites at the same strengths... Indoors the dedicated car GPS performed a little better, but the Touch Pro was not shamed...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] paperWastage:
well, google navigator isn't really a full GPS solution per se... Live Maps too

TT7 for WM doesn't have TTS, or any of those nifty functions on iGo(such as 3D landmarks, lane assist, roadsign

I'm on Lantis V3.0 RC2 now. In general, it's a great ROM.

After installing a few application, it seems that my TF3D suddenly has another soft button on the top right corner.

It's just a black button that hides my battery meter. I don't know which program does that, this is the first time I see it. And every time I press that black button, it bring me back to the first step of TF3D... Anyone has any idea what is it and how to get rid of it?

Can't disable t9. Tried make hklm/software/tegic/et9/ime/carrierdefaulttextmode=0, no effect.

Bored pushing Fn-Space-3-1-Fn-Space-2 just to change the language.
[HTC Wings] serg146:
hmm... looks like it is sooo difficult, that no one can even answer...
[HTC Wings] robert.maas:
Hmm serg146, in your first post is it to disable t9 or to change the default language??? Because to change the default language isn't too difficult.
[HTC Wings] serg146:
Ok, may be my english not good at all, i'll try again...

Every time i want switch layout to another language(layout?) (rus/eng) i had to press 7(seven) keys: Fn-Space-3-1-Fn-Space-2. Last 3 keys switching xt9 mode to ABC. I'm totally hate t9 and never used it, i've got qwerty keyboard, i can't get what for t9 there. But i have to switch it off every time.

So, i want my phone to switch language(layout) by less key presses. At least 4. That's why ABC mode should appear instead of xt9 after switching language (layout).

tried set it 1, reload, set 0, reload. no effect.

[HTC Wings] issam1979:
You said: carrierdefaulttextmode=0

he said: textinputmode=0

that's totally different you should try again friend :)
[HTC Wings] serg146:
i know, texinputmode already set to 0, anyway, i tried again - no sense. Seems like i'm doing something totally wrong. I'm also get used to switch 'abc' mode from 'xt9' by pressing '*' on numeric keypad, that's a little faster, but what i really wish is to switch languages by 1 ot 2 key pressed, like on pc.

Hi, everyone.

I using the Korean smartphone Samsung m480 (i780) model in Vietnam.

OS is wm6.1.

The Korean smartphone does not use ms-sms APP. uses different sms APP.

And the Korean smartphone sms APP. is can't not using in other country.

So it activates a non-activation ms-sms APP. in the Korean smartphone to use.

Anyway..... my problem is the activated ms-sms APP. problem.

1. When message receiving, the country code being included, so name information not display of the address book.

2. Some cell phone is can't not reading message. (text broken)

3. The time is incorrect of the message received.

Please see the description below SMS registry of my phone.

When it amends "DLL" MITS_SMS_Providers.dll with sms_provider.dll, is not a possibility of sending message.

Well... I've been without a phone for close to 3 weeks now (because the phone is bricked) and have been reading and reading and reading..

anyway.. the point being is I think i have came close (I've tried the SD method and it hasn't worked) is there any way at all, to be able to connect the phone on activesync, even when bricked, because thats the only way i can flash the rom!!

respond please!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Timtown:
Not sure what exactly your specific issue is but, having just recovered my, Hermes from "Brick-Hell". I'll try to help.

First, do you have access to an XP machine and AS4.5? This would make things easier... if not have you read MrVanx's guide to syncing on Vista?

But try this anyway:

In WMDC de-select connect via USB (or whatever it says, I forget as I dumped Vista for Linux).

Remove the battery from your device for several minutes. In the meantime reboot your Vista machine. When it comes back up, make sure allowing USB connections is still un-checked.

Go here and download the T-Mobile ROM (2nd Link) to your desktop.

Return the battery to your phone and connect via USB cable. Then run the T-Mobile ROM app from your desktop. If it doesn't work, at first, keep trying until you get by the "Erasing" part. The ROM update will eventually return an error but after that you should be able to flash any ROM to your phone. But first I would Hard SSPL upgrade. :)

I just did this under XP (in a virtual machine, no less) and it worked like a charm.

Good luck.

Hi I'm not that new to cooking ROMS, but I'm by no means an expert when it comes to making one myself.

I have been reading and reading and searching but I can't find a nice clean easy to use kitchen for the GSM Touch Pro anywhere.

My Touch Pro(actually, it's an AT&T Fuze) will be arriving this Thursday(Jan 15th) and I would really love to be able to build my own custom ROM and possibly release it to the community but the community seems to be somewhat lacking in the "Kitchen Department".

I took a good look at NotATreoFan's kitchen. Every OEM is lacking an option.xml file and there are no tools included to actually build the ROM.

I looked at jcespi2005 and JugglerLKR's kitchen and that kitchen seems very non-user friendly.

Coming back to GSM from a CDMA Community, may I ask why there are no complete, user-friendly kitchens here in the GSM world? CDMA has the PPCKitchen, they have tobeychris&Ghettofreeryder's Diamond Kitchen, and they have electronicrice's kitchen for the Touch Pro(CDMA).

I just don't understand why no kitchen like that exists for the GSM Touch Pro. I think it's a really good idea to have a user-friendly kitchen because then anyone can make their own custom ROMs and then you have more variety because everyone has their own style.

Just my 2 cents...

Dan.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] SamsungGalaxySamsung:
i prefer using jcespi's kitchen it is very userfriendly.

On xda you can find the simple steps.

Or do you want a kitchen that does everything on command at it own:D

[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Da_G:
hmm, the raph kitchens buildos looks almost exactly like ppckitchens buildos, but instead of holding your hand it gives you freedom..

if you prefer the easy to use gui with pre assembled packages, why not use ppckitchen?

I agree, it's too automatic-- no offense, but I want the chef shaping the ROM and not the kitchen :) Always nice to have personal touch :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] aruppenthal:
Yeah I gotta agree with that. Ive tried ppckitchen and i couldnt handle the lack of control over my files.

If you comfortable with splitting out the payload give Da_Gs kitchen a look. It is fast and has the newest build OS which i think is more efficient. Its posted in the raphael kitchen thread on one of the last pages.

If it helps ive got a small tool which will make the option.xml files in batch form?

Simple process:

get your packages into a common folder

make sure they all have a dsm inside with a valid guid

drag the common folder onto the program

type in the group name you want

the tool creates the option.xml for each package with its name being the folder name and the group being that which you entered at the start.

it defaults the checked values to "true" aswell.

Am at work at the mo so cant post it but will do when i get home if thats any help to anyone?

Guys

I'm all about getting into this stuff forehead deep so I grabbed jcespi's kitchen tossed my nbh from the stock cingular rom for the fuze just to get started to see if I could figure this out. Am reading through his docu's but I'm a conceptual techie I can talk it but in the onset rely on advice and coaching that being said none of you are baby sitter. Where would you suggest someone in dilemma start; I'd like to contribute more can pick up stuff pretty quickly just need a good starting place to get the hang of this so I too can where maybe a chef's bandana lol. Any advice is as always much appreciated!

While I'm primarily a conceptual techie; I do get my hands dirty once they are dirty enough I won't ask the redundant and sometimes dumbe questions... I promise :D... going to download that other kitchen referenced above as I am more of a visual learner and don't mind microwaving some ROMs before I actually pan fry or bake anything.
