The settings you ask about do not influence ttff at all.

Following this forum it seems, they could have some impact on gps lag time during normal operation.

I can not confirm this in my case however - there is no noticeable difference w/wo.

Maybe it was critical on devices with low speed flash memories but it does not seem to be a case with tp2.

Thus I would recommend to leave them unchanged.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] terrypin:
OK, thanks, appreciate the reply. I'll do as you recommend.

More generally, taking this thread together with the parallel one 'GPS Patch!' at

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=553094

I'm getting very confused. If anyone can summarise the situation I for one would be very grateful. For example:

What patches or fixes are applicable to what situations and how can a mere user (as distinct from a programmer) confidently decide what if anything is necessary to fix? And leaving aside the virus issue (see my last post) can those from Antonius123 be reversed safely?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rob_p:
I don't think the lag is fixable on the TP2 unfortunately. However some apps are better than others. MN7 is very good, iGO8 is also pretty good with lag, and I've just bought CPL8 which I have to say has about the least lag of anything I've tried. CPL8 is perfectly useable, whereas I find TTN7 to be pretty much un-useable due to lag and jumpuing off course etc...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ksmm:
One have to distinguish between gps lag time and the delay any navigation program enters to update the position. This is not the same.

GPS lag time is the delay entered by gps itself while navigation programs are used to additionaly filter gps readings to provide stable position, that results with an additional delay.

Regarding iGO8 - there is a possibility to tune filtering depth to get the best results ;-)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rdaprix:
Anyone try it with Iguidance yet....

Just wondering if I'll need to edit the registry the same way and what the lag looks like with that app. Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Rob.P:
Thanks

Thanks for the thread, I've implemented the tweaks and can definately see a difference in the pick-up and lock of satellites.

Will see if there is any difference to the lag on the way home when I use Cameraware and TT.

Update: Found I got a better response if I set the buffers to 1024 rather than the 512 setting, this hasn't improved the overall gps lag in the application though but has definately improved the pickup of satellites, on a clear day it can be almost instant.

That was with Cameraware and I've now switched to Copilot (TT can get stuffed as a company, flippin rip off merchants).

hey guys does this GPS tweak work with the latest offcial windows mobile 6.5 released?

Is there a cab file to just install to fix all the gps issues
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] see:
hey there,

i tried the gps settings 2 weeks ago and my NAVIGON 7 software was able to find 9 gps satellites at 150 km/h in 10 seconds.. very good! And i've loved the new settings...

bevore that it was very bad, because it takes up to 10 minutes to find a signal...

but here comes the strange thing: NOW it is working almost like before the tweaks! I was driving 50 km/h and the gps was not getting a signal for 20 minutes... crazy?

I checked all settings and there is no mistake or restore of the ols ones...

what can I do?? Why this happens??

I Hope you can help me..

Best wishes

Hello, I have a Jade Clone and none of these Registry values exist. I added dWords but didn't know how to add this one:

HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver\Drivers\GPSOneDevice\

PollInterval dropped to 100 (DEC) this is MilliSeconds

Is the GPSOneDevice a generic directory and what type value should it take? Thanks in advance.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ronbo76:
On my Blackstone Clone, those two strings do not exist. It is possible other phones do not have those strings either.

The SleepOnNoData string did not work for my Clone. While the GPS can be turned on and get satellite lock-ons, iGO8 could not get data from the GPS until that string was removed.

Thanks for your other lower values. My Clone's GPS locked on in 12 seconds with the Dwords that had to be created. The Dwords also did not exist and I had to create them per your example.

I don't know how to create the PollInterval directory which means I can't create the Dword underneath it. It would be nice to have that directory but my GPS works with just the two stings. I can't wait to drive tomorrow and see how much the lag becomes diminished.

Thanks to all for coming up with these registry values!!!

I've got the same question. Since HTC support has delivered ehanced drivers for the GPS, I'm wondering if I need this update with Windows mobile 6.5
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Blairware:
This looks like something worse than lag...

I have a relatively new TP2 (Well, Tilt2 anyway) - Always used Garmin and OCN 8 (Until I lost the freakin Micro SD, that was impossible to hack the software onto my 16 Gb primary card) The Buttheads in support at OCN insisted I but the product again for full price, even though they had record of my purchase - heck, i would have paid a nominal replacement fee for the $5 they must spend on the crappy SD cards... ) But I digress, sorry. Just wanted to mention that because I promised support I would make sure everyone knew what dickheads they were!

Heres the thing: TT7 keeps losing signal, constantly. :eek: It keeps asking if I am indoors! It tends to lose signal for like 20 seconds, then finds it for a few secs, then loses it again. That got me concerned, so I fired up Garmin, went to GPS info, and I see 5-6 sats, with maybe 4 having no signal. I can SEE sats dropping, then coming back. I have NOT tweaked yet so I don't cloud this issue. Once corrected, I will tweak for performance/lag/lock issues.

Google maps reports plenty of Sats, but the number changes... a lot.

NOTE: Garmin does not complain, but I see the entire signal disappear once in a while, and yes I have lag all over the place. Is this the reason? Or do I have something ELSE going on?

You guys are the pros, many of you have been working with these issues since Raphael or longer. What do you think? Warranty support time, or what?

Here is a link to the original Posting that I downloaded this from.

From Opera

http://www.opera.com/mobile/download/

I will get screen shots and a review up ASAP!!! I just installed and am messing around with it. There is also a widgets app which comes pre-loaded with a twitter widget, geoquizz, bubbles (game), status widget (ping.fm?), and google translator. You can click to add more and are taken to Widgets.Opera.com. where there is a selection to choose from. Seems Cool.

The scrolling seems to be quicker and smoother. Very nice. From the original post it seems that Turbo is off by default so I am now going in to Opera:Config to turn it on and see if there is a difference in loading.

Note:

June 12

I had been testing HSPL this week and havn't had a chance to play in Opera7 much anymore....... I just reinstalled on my newly flashed rom from udk..... So screenshots and such will be coming in the next few days. I'm very busy.

JUNE8

Overall experiance is good. Besides no zoombar. XDA loads faster.

I have experienced several freezes and crashes. It Is BETA though. So that is expected.

I have been able to get the zoombar working in some way. Not to zoom but I can use it to scroll down the page and through items. If intrested I can post the registry tweak for it.

There is a little animation noticed when rotating.

I am able to play video off of Youtube.com but not hulu.com

Screen rotation does not work at the moment. Using G-config as recommended below Works. Will see what registry edits were done using it.

I seems that in the original build Opera Config has more settings under adaptive zoom including one that says "zoom slider maximum" So this may be more tha a registry tweek. IDK

JUNE 7

It seems the zoombar is non-responsive. Could just be a registry tweak.... IDK though. Will try my best with waht little skill I have to look into it.

There is History when you start to type a URL

After a soft reset the Original Opera loads from the Browser Tab now.

Opera will not launch from Browser Tab after install and Bookmarks are not transfered. The original Opera Browser is still there and is not over writen though.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] 123schiff:
Just installed it and works great. Pages loads much faster and more smooth, turning the turbo mode didn't notice anything spectacular. Confirmed the ZOOM scroll bar does not work with the beta version. Hope its just a registry tweak or something.

Hopefully HTC will release either a ROM upgrade or cab package that integrates opera 9.7 into TouchFlo. A cab package is maybe more likely at this beta stage.

It installed as default for me as well. i don't know the specific registry edit but if you search the forums you can find it. Search for something like "setting Opera as default browser"

or

www.videonews.ro

better try the first 1 -and pick any date on the window, it should start the video
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] HTC Touch Freak:
Neither of them show the video sorry.... According to Opera No flash plugin is included with this Beta. So mebe later on it will but at the moment no...

From their site:

* Opera Turbo in Opera Mobile is still a preview-feature;

o Downloads don't work while Opera Turbo is enabled.

o Some settings (such as toggle on/off images) do not apply when Opera Turbo is enabled.

* On older WM 5.0 Devices with 480x800 resolution, switching between portrait and landscape may cause display errors. This is due to lack of support for this resolution in early versions of Microsoft's driver.

* Some input method editors are known not to work well with Opera because they do not comply with Microsoft's SIP and/or IME standard. When such an editor is detected by Opera, Opera will use a known (default) input method instead. An exception is EzInput v1.5, where the phone keypad and compact QUERTY, ABC mode doesn't work, but the rest of the modes work fine. We recommend upgrading to EzInput v2.0 to avoid this.

* Only support for FlashLite 3.x. No Flash plugin included.

Hi all,

here you can find my modded recovery image and a rom based on the original rom for HTC magic (model A6161 sold in scandinavia).

BEWARE, it works on TIM Magic, recovery was tested on Original Unbranded Magic, but the rom has to be tested yet.

I modded it to grant root access from adb shell. It doesn't work unmodified on Vodafone Magic and other devices with modified SPL. SPL working for this ROM is .2008, Board is PVT 32A.

I've no time to provide a step-by-step guide right now. Sorry to be in a hurry.

You have to download the images, then:

- copy the signed zip file as update.zip into your sd card root

- fastboot the recovery image

- select nandroid backup from the menu (so you're going to dump your original ROM)

- select wipe data

- select apply update

- select reboot

- wait a long time for the first initialization.

I'm sorry for italian guys, it seems TIM sim customizes the phone for noverca. You'll have to change your apn settings, so during the wizard setup, press ignore when asked for google account setup. You'll configure it later.

DISCLAIMER: WARNING, you're going to format all of your data and the rom has not been tested for full functionality. Flashing unofficial roms ROMs will invalidate your warranty and you can make your device unusable. Do it at your own responsability. Non experienced users, please wait for for feedbacks by more experienced users.

Please post any comment in this thread.

You are welcome.

When I have some more time, I would like to fill the first posts I reserved in this thread with info about confirmed working installation, etc.

Let's say any info (or link to already posted info) could be of help to other users of the community.

Counting on the help of users having successfully flashed these images to fill a small template about your model, original radio version, spl, kernel version, CPLD, board, etc. etc..

I'm asking this because we have to think that in the future other different models could be released and some new user could try to flash these images only because he bought an Original HTC (do you remember how many of us tried booting the vodafone Magic images with the only result to hang on splash screen?)

A detailed table of confirmed working phones could be of help to them.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] daldroid:
Did you follow the steps in the correct order? What was the result of fastboot?

Did the fastboot also hang on the splash screen?

Do you have a TIM, Original HTC Magic or Rogers phone or do you have vodafone one?

Since it's not your first flash, I assume you already flashed your phone, so I suppose you have a vodafone Magic/sapphire.

In that case the board is PVT 32B (not PVT 32A) and you have a different bootloader. And in this case the fastboot shoud have hanged on logo screen.

If not able to fastboot my recovery-image, I suppose you flashed the ROM with a recovery image you already flashed.

If my assuptions are true, you have to boot in recovery-mode from your flashed recovery (or fastbooting into a working recovery for your phone) and flash again your previous ROM image with the procedure you are used to.

This ROM doesn't work on VODAFONE Magics.

Let me know
