i have a xda2, which hasnt got the gps stauts feature installed,
when i connect my working haicom gps via tt3, it keeps saying gps disabled, but there is no where to set it as there are no icons, i have looked everywhere, i think my xda 2 dosnt offer that feature or its corrupt, i have done a hard reset but nothing happens, ive been trying for ages reinstalling the s/w and all sorts..

or i can i reinstall all the operating system back on the xda??,
i need some proper advise so any info will be appreciated as im a non techie

cheers in advance guys

You have to disable the beam option under your connections.
This is in 99% the problem why you canīt access the comport where your gps reciever is connected.
Also there should be an GPS icon under Settings. There you have to set it to COM1 and the Haicom reciever...

i have disabled the infrared beam, but there is no icon or no where in settings regarding the gps, it was there originally but since i have been messing around with it, i can not see it at all, i have done a hard reset but that does not do anything

...but there is no icon or no where in settings regarding the gps ....

Search in your device after a file TomTom GPS.
Otherwise try to reinstall the application....
