Tom Tom 7 Internal GPS??? - P3600 General

I have recently installed TT7 with the v7 map.
The thing is i can´t configure TT7 to use the built in receiver opion.
To make it work i have to manually configure the GPS reveiver in TT.
I use the black version of TT7...
Any workaround for this?

It's the only working configuration for p3600
- "altri gps NMEA" - com9 - 4800 baud -
I think that tomtom 7 is optimized for htc diamond and it has a different internal gps chip.
But working and this is good

4800 or 9600 baud???
I´m using 9600 baud, why do you use 4800?

I'm also using 9600Baud works fine here....

Actually this only occurs if you use the repack 3 of the original TT7 port (from Touch diamond).
I loaded this today as I had re-flashed my ROM and wanted to try the re-pack.
I have since gone back to the original port and TT7 doesn't need any set-up for the GPS receiver....it automatically selects the uilt in unit.
By the way....after a bit of research it turns out the re-packs were done for 2 reasons. One was to allow devices which were not on the original approved device list (hence they wouldn't load) and secondly to allow the use of maps aquired by other means.........
I am going to stay with the clean original........it works just fine for me....

Problem With Mine Too

Which Tomtom7 version did you use? If you used the re-pack3 verssion you need to set the GPS receiver (in Tomtom) to Other Nema GPS.
If it is the standard Tomtom7 from the Kaiser thread it should find the internal GPS receiver without you doing anything.

finnaly working
ok
1º thank you Andych for giving me that hint
2º i whant to say that i had to change my WM version from
001TNYSXY - CE OS 5.2.19588 (Build 19588.1.1.4) WWE
to
Trinity WM 6.1 Diamond edition by Akeo V2 ---- v2 because v3 is off line still
and made some changes for ex:
took out:
TomTom 7 v.7.450 (9028)
and put in:
repack 3 of the original TT7
map: iberia-13 v.720.1803
GPS settings:
gps program port: com1
gps hardware port: com9
baud rate: 9600
and set the GPS receiver (in Tomtom) to Other Nema GPS
thank you all

i've tested 4800 and 9600 baud without difference so i use 4800 but 9600 works fine too.

Internel GPS
Work the internal gps with the repack 1 or 2 version???

I'm using TT7 v.7.450 (9028)
Other NMEA GPS
Baud Rate: 115200
COM9
Works perfectly, in fact seems to get a signal quicker than it did with TT6.
PS - Using ROM 007TNYSTD

I ve testet the black cap with the NMEA gps settings and is is very slow.
Then a reinstalled the black cap to the original tt 7 i have imediatly a signal with the iternal GPS.
The original TT7 is much faster than the black editions.

I got the black TT7 from this forum....
I didn't know there were other versions but it does seem rather slow.
Make My Day!, could you give me a link to the version that you say is faster than the black one please?

I mean that was the original CAP ( 1 link )
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=401679
but you musst find the original (better) exe^^
I cant find it any longer. its delete from server where i find it.
Black repack edition: gps fix coldstart longer then 1 min only NMEA settings
original cap : gps fix very coldstart 5- MAX--> 10 seconds with Internal GPS

Ok well I'll try and find a version that isn't black then if that means I can get a quicker fix... Thanks for your help.

Hmmm... a very rapid gps fix coldstart could be because gps are always active .... What is the battery life with the original cap?

are people dyslexic on here its original CAB not CAP

No the GPS is off only you start tomtom it start too.
The Batary life is very long.
But the 1 start after insatll it can be that you musst wait for the signal becouse tomtom musst search the satelites.

Can't fin the TT7 original CAB
Can anyone give the link, or link here the original CAB so we can tast that?

Gps port?

Hi,
would like to know which port is for the internal GPS system, I deleted the pre installed tomtom navigator and try to install tomtom navigator6.0 This program prompt me for a GPS port and I don't know which one.
Could you help me?
Hi,
this is what works for me:
WM5: port 4, speed 4800, internal GPS receiver
WM6: port 5, speed 9600, Other NMEA receiver
In the settings: same data and check "automatic management" (or the like, I
have an italian OS)
Hope this can help
Mauro
With AP Touch Rom 3.0 on Google Maps I have to choose port 4 with 57600.

via Settings->System->GPS I can select the com port on my T-Mobile Ameo DE
on TomTom you choose other NMEA receivers.
hi
in settings under external gps it asks for
programs .> gps program port ????
Hardware -> gps harware port -> i set it to com 4 57600
access - manage it autimatically is checked
and gps does not get any setting s in google maps
just says seeking sattleites ????
Hi.
In settings>system>external GPS:
GPS program port: WM5 -> com4, WM6 -> com5
Hardware : WM5 -> none, 4800, WM6 -> none, 9600
manage it automatically: checked
In TomTom (GPS status):
WM5: internal GPS, 4800, com4
WM6: other NMEA receiver, 9600, com5
These settings work for my device, hope it helps.

On Google Maps and Delorme Maps I get "searching for satellite" when the settings are right, but it hasn't locked-on yet. When the settings are wrong, I almost instantly get an error message. So I'm guessing if you see "searching..." you have your settings right.
As for finding a signal, the achille's heel on this unit is locking on when you are inside (either a building or even some cars). Outside or inside my car it will lock on in 20-30 seconds, sometimes sooner. Inside my house or office it will fail 98% of the time. The sirf/star unit attached to my Palm will lock on inside my house - in the middle of the 1st floor - in under 20 seconds.
I think with all the trade-offs they had to make to get all 4 antennas to work together without interference, the signal strength on the internal GPS antenna got the short straw. I have top-notch strength on the cell and bluetooth antennas, so obviously they got top priority. I don't use wifi so I don't know how well it works, but the gps signal strength could use some work for the future X7502...
GPS, TomTom
I have a T-Mobile Ameo and recently I have installed TomTom Navigator 6.
when I start TomTom it takes between 5-20 minutes before it gets connected with a satellite.
Is this normal, or is there a problem..?
if not, what should I do to resolve this problem..?
grtzz,
Avicenna

Help TomTom

Excuse me, when install tomtom dont recgnize the internal gps device, I setting gps NMEA, velocity trasmition 9600 and com4.
It work well, but is ok? or I must setting different?
Thanks
(Excuse me for my english!!!)
When you used the cab to install TomTom you will indeed need to use these settings. If you use the installer on the CD-Rom witch came with the device you can use the internal GPS.
No worries, it does the job, don't bother.

isn't the transmission 4800 ??
Sometimes it picks up on 4800 and sometimes 9600. When it says "no gps device" change the baud rate to either of the two numbers.
If its at 4800--> change to 9600
It it's at 9600---> change to 4800
Thanks forthe support, rhe gps work at 9600 and very fast I had feare that the confinguration was mistaken!
No problem at all.

BT GPS, TomTom & GPS-Tracking

Hi there,
I'm running TomTom6 (navigation) and Efficasoft GPS Utilities v1.2 (GPS-Tracking) on my MDA3 with WM6.1 from eplode. Everything works fine when it's running alone. But, when I'm running both at same time, only the first one which I started gets the GPS connection.
My GPS Settings are:
- Programs: GPS program port (none)
- Hardware: GPS hardware port (none) // Baud rate: (9600)
- Access: Manage GPS automatically (on)
I didn't try any other settings yet.
What I want to do, is running both at same time, so I can track the route and speed while using the navigation.
Does anyone has a solution...?
Thx Rossi
In the windows GPS settings don't split GPS correctly, you might need to use software like GPSGate (or maybe gpsproxy).
Thx, but where can I get this...?

Dear all!
Thank you but it does not work on ORANGE sold Pharos.
Any other HTC 3470 sold by non ORANGE operator it will work.
Ok??? Do you Understand?
Thank you for sharing with us your experience.
Yes, just installed the iGO 8 v8.3.2.64873 and it works perfect.
iGO8 didn't work correctly on my Pharos 619 until I installed Port Splitter. It couldn't find the built in GPS. It also helps if you are outside or next to a large window.
http://www.gpsmeter.com/index.php?page=portsplitter
Port Splitter is free so at least you can see if it works for you.
iGO8 v 8.0.0.49545 works fine on my 3470 Pharos

Tom Tom 7 GPS configuration
Go to Tom Tom 7 GPS configuration and instead of internal GPS select NMEA
GPS settings:
gps program port: com1
gps hardware port: com9
baud rate: 9600
Hi Chaplan...
When i go to GPS Settings i have the GPS Baud Rate screen which i configured with 9600 and at the next screen i have this:
COM3:
GPS in COM9
COM7:
RIL on COM6:
S2410 IRDA
My question is how can i change the values?
When i tap in one of the above lines it just goes to the "GPS Status" screen again...
Thanks a lot for your help once more...
you just need to select gps in com9 and there you go....
Tom Tom says it has no GPS Device for 2 seconds and then says the GPS signal is weak till it gets a fix...
But i've already have GPS in COM9 right?
And TomTom stilles saying No GPS Device eternally
Hi again,
I think i understand now
By this time TTN7 change like you said Chaplan...i have now the message "Waiting for a valid GPS signal"...but it's been about 15 minutes...is that normal?
The Baud Rate is 9600 like you told me before...
And it's working
Thanks a lot for your help once more...
No GPS device!
Hi, Please help me!!!! I've just done a rom upgrade and unclocked my Orange M700.....When using TomTom6, It shows No GPS device!.....I tried the settings....but still no joy.
