no gps - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

my hd2 never connects to gps with all gps programs
i still don't know wether it's a hw or sw problem?
her are some informations from :setting/about phone:
android version:2.3.7
base band version:15.423.50.11u._2.15.50.14
kernel version.2.6.32.15_14s_r9
mod version:hyperdroid_cm7-magldr5.8.0 nerdymarwhal
build n° cwk74
thank you for any help to get my gps working

i would suggest a reflash first. if that doeant fix the problem start from scratch ... get the hd2 toolkit (search for it if you dont already have it handy), task 29, reinstal mag/clk (whatever your preference), cwm, and then hyperdroid.
if that doesnt remedy the problem it would have to be a hw problem in my opinion.
good luck

thank you for your replay i did all the steps you mentionned but the problem still persists even after flashing a new rom based on android 4 if someone knows about any kind of hw diagnostic programs i doubt a hw problem

I would get GPS Status from the market , go outside on a clear day , download agps data . and then try to get a fix . If you cant get a fix . Then , sadly to say , you MUST flash back to the Stock Windows Mobile ROM that came with the device as that is the ONLY way to rule out any software problem . If it works with winmo on , then its something with android . if it doesnt work with winmo on , then its a hardware error .

1) try to read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=953630
2)I would try to put wm 6.5 to take away all doubt

Bluetooth problem Help!

Hi all!
My Diamond is on [v5]PDACornerIllusion 21042, I installed it and all's working great! Still there's one little problem... I can't activate the bluetooth, I don't know why, I click on the activation button and it tells me to wait but then- nothing, bluetooth never activates... :'( I went to the settings so I could activate it there, but still nothing... I tried it all, hard and soft reset several times but still nothing...
Please, tell me what can I do?? Thanks.

			
				
Same Problem here...
Hi just wanna bump this thread...
I'm having this problem too bro...
Have tried the following workarounds/solutions but to no avail:
- Flashed a Stock Rom, works, but flashed back to a custom rom, the problem returns.
- while in custom rom, tried flashing different Radio Roms but still no bluetooth.
- Used MTTY method (See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=540290&highlight=mtty) but still no luck...
- This has been going on for about 2 months or so for me... been trying these methods with different Stock, Custom and Radio Roms. Could manage to get it alive for a short while (3 - 4 soft resets later...) and the darn bluetooth juz wouldn't come ON again...
- Sigh!!!!
Hope somebody out there has a fix or encountered this problem, and explain to me in detail how you remedied the problem. Cos' I'm afraid that I could be doing something wrong (tho i think i explained pretty clearly, did i?) :S
hi bulletproof_78,

3G problem since I've installed radio 1.59 and over

Hi!
I've tried to install new ROM with win 6.5 few days ago. So I've update my radio rom at the same time with the version 1.59.46.12.
No problem with the installation, everything seems to work fine...
But since, I've got trouble with my 3G connection... If I stay in EDGE everything work fine, it connect to internet etc.
But as soon as I have an HSDPA connection, I lost network connection and I never get it again... I have to turn manually in GSM mode only to get a signal again...
I've tried radio 1.65.30.09 but it's the same thing and I've downgraded to the win 6.1 3Lit3 VIII and I've got the same
I don't know what to do... I've got the right radio version for the ROMs I've tried so I think it'll be stupid to try a 1.58xx or 1.64xx but I have no other idea :/ Maybe I'll tried this tonight but with no much hope...
I'll tried again with an other ROM too, but if you have an other idea, I'll take it...
Thank you very much :/
PS: Sorry again for my wonderfull english, if you don't understand something I could try to explain my problem in a different way, thanks

Install your original rom and try again. Downgrade your radio first to 1.59.xx.
So...
I've tried to reinstall my old ROM (win 6.1 by TranMinhMan) and the associated radio.
Same problem...
I've tried to reinstall the official HTC ROM... It's the same...
I don't know what to do... That sucks (a lot)
With only GSM mode activated it always works, but if I turn on HSDPA on, I lost connection to the service : I can't call, connect to the internet or anything... I've verified my operator configuration, it's not that...
Help.... :/

This is strange ..maybe your gsm provider has the problem..It happens some times.
Hum, yes but I've tried in different places and I have the problem for few days now It's a long time for a provider problem I think.
May the flash of the radio break something? Like the 3G receiver in the phone? :/ I don't know, I have no much knowledge in this domain...
Or maybe it's the sim card? I will try to find an other sim today to try with it...
Thanks for your answers kostas244.
I've tried with an other SIM card and I have the same problem...
Reinstalling the official ROM and associated radio of my provider (orange) doesn't change anything...
I think my device is really broken

well i had the same issue on kaiser... mobo problem... sorry
Sorry but I don't understand (or don't want to ) :
"mobo problem" = hardware problem on my phone? :/
I hope I'll found my guaranty papers...
I had exactly the same problem.
I'm sorry to say this, but the only way to fix it is by replacing the motherboard.
Don' t spend any more time flashing roms or radios, it's useless.
You should find those guaranty papers as soon as possible.
They replaced mine with no cost.
Remember to remove hard-spl and then
flash original rom before visitng service point !!
Ok, thanks for your advice.
Do you think the latest official ROM from HTC is alright or I need to return to the first one?
I'd like to add, the Polaris has a very weak gsm antenna. I've done a test, with all possible radios on my polaris i get max 3 bars and a GPRS icon. While on the exact same spot, when starting up my nokia 5800 XM gets full bars and 3.75G.

[Question] How to test GPS hardware...

Hi all,
suddenly my GPS is not working anymore. Can enable GPS and it says it is ok. But when i want use Google Maps, or navigation program the icon in taskbar is not there anymore.
Did try GPS Status, nothing....
Did a fresh rom install and wipe everything i can wipe.. nothing not working.
now i want to know is there a tool or adb option to test the hardware if this is still working.... (maybe GPS is broken)
Thanks
Did a RADIO rom flash with the one i already had on my HTC... and problem solved....
Still wondering how it can happen that maybe the radio rom was getting crazy...
had the same problem two days ago, same solution... same no idea for the cause
this kind of strange things was my idea only for windows... suddenly it is not working anymore.. But.. Solve this problem was mutch easier haha
This seems to happen whenever you flash a 2.1 ROM. Even going back to 1.5 doesn't fix the problem and a new radio flash is required.
Regards,
Dave
Test program
Try GPSTest from market.

Every now and then manufacturers like HTC will release an update to radio which controls your wifi, data, blutooth. If your current radio is having problems, you will need to update it. Most of the time new radio is included with the update but you can Google individual files as well, hope this explains

drivers or ....

Hello
I have a problem. I try to install Android (SD or NAND - I think over 20 versions), and I succeed, but I have few problems. The main problems are the G-Sensor ( I can live without this) and the proximity sensor (this is a pain in the %$#). If I try to keep the phone with my shoulder, i activate speaker or something else...
Doesn't matter which kind of installing I do (SD or NAND), this are permanent issues. The worst thing is that in windows all of them are working. I tried to install few programs from the Market, but nothing worked. And Teeter tell me that I don't have a G-sensor ...
It's a problem with the hardware drivers, or is about something else ?
Thank you ...
Hi,
There are some problems related to the hardware like the slow resume from suspend or the slow proximity sensor response when in phone call.
Which build have you tried. Rafdroid's and imilka's are most stable for me and there are no problems with the g-sensor. Don't get carried away from ambitious state of the art ROMs. Just use a stable one.
hello ..
thank you for answer ... I tried rafdroid, and I had few issues. the main one is that the "alert light" remain started ...
I'll try also imilka's, and I'll come back with an answer ..
Thanks for support ...
Hello ...
I tried I think 20 versions of Android, NAND or SD, but no one worked ...
I have another question. My phone is HTC HD2 T8585 (in setting / phone identity). I assumed that is EU version (512 Mb), but one friend told me that is possible to be T-mobile version (512 Mb, not 1024). It's true ? This can be my problem ?
Phone was bought from Vodafone shop, so is not a fake HTC or a clone ... Everything work perfect in WM 6.1, but I hate the keyboard, and that's way I want a Android ..
Can somebody give me a clue ?
Thank you ...

T8585 are EU Version and even if it was T-Mo your problem is not related to that.
I can't think of a reason why g-sensor and proximity are not working.
You have newest Radio?
Partition layouts are correct for each ROM you are using?
differences of the EU and TMOUS ver
the TMOUS had colored send and end keys green and red the eu verison does not and i suggest u flash the newest radio also
Hi
Buttons are not colored ... So I think is eu version ... But accelerometer and proximity sensor don't work in Android. Windows is ok ...
