hi,
It seems that the treo 750v have the MSM6275 Chipset : http://www.cdmatech.com/products/msm6275_chipset_solution.jsp
Anyone know how to activate the A-GPS like someone done on the htc tytn ?
thx

The GPS chip in the TyTn doesnt work yet, the GPS chip has no antenna connected to it so you'd have to take it apart and install one(they're still trying to figure out how and where)

It's possible they could get it working on the Treo 750, but we cant flash the Trinity radio(which enables the GPS link) like the TyTn users can(as far as I know)

it is possible to enable GPS on TyTN (you must install Trinity radio with number 11 at the end - e.g. 1.38.00.11 and also use GPS driver which sent AT@startgps command), but signal is very weak, and you have no lock, which mean you cannot precisely find your position. even if you solder new antena there is many other soldering, and it is no place inside tytn to do that, to use shielded cable out of faraday cage and also for new GPS antena. easy way is to buy bluetooth adapter, but this is nothing new for you I guess... :o

this is some threads, if you like it to read it, about GPS on TyTN -

It's missing the GPS antenna and other stuff, it would cost too much time and money to get it to work. Consider this closed, it would be cheaper and wiser to just buy a bluetooth GPS unit.
