HTC NEW GPS ROM - This is frustrating!

---

Hi,

Where is the new rom from HTC to enable our Trinitys with GPS capability? I know the Dopod rom is out but it has a lot of jargon attached to it. They said March and it came and no news.

Thanks,

Gilbert

I agree this is frustrating. The DOPOD ROM has been available for a month now and basically they are the same company. They don't seem to care too much for their European customers.

Answer from HTC last Week

I ask HTC last week, from where i can get an update, because i didn't bought the p3600 from a provider. This was the answer:


The HTC P3600 currently does not offer GPS Functionality. While we are aware that some other derivatives of the P3600 may have already released this update, HTC has not yet set a date on the final release of the ROM update, as other updates are being included in the release.

Please continue to check the www.europe.htc.com support section for an update section, which is to be included once ROM updates have been released.

i've given up waiting, just flashed mine with a GPS enabled rom

i think. they'll out in second half of march... be patient :P

Dude, that sounds hot! What if one of those other updates is WM6 or some really useful bug-fix?

There are a plethora of other bugs on this device that need fixing (camera driver issues, cpu/imageon compatibility issues, skype speaker issue). I for one will be happy to wait until the end of the month if we get fixes for other issues too.

I've got a Spanish Trinity and also made a question about the GPS ROM update to HTC, here is the answer:

Thank you for your enquiry concerning the HTC P3600 mobile device.

The HTC P3600 currently does not offer GPS Functionality. There is a possibility of an update to enable the GPS functions of the device at a future date, and we hope to be able to do this as soon as possible, but we cannot and do not guarantee this.? If you buy the P3600 for possible future GPS functionality, you do so entirely at your own risk.

I hope we have it shortly but I've got my doubts!!!

That's the same message they were sending in December. Obviously the support people can only feed you with canned responses when it comes to future products or enhancements.

Hello,
I have just bought P3600 except operator pack.
I know that Orange brought out a ROM with the GPS. Having an orange abo, that will happen if I put this rom? Has it a risk there of shooting my HTC?

Thx

bonjour,

je viens d'acheter un P3600 hors offre opérateur.
Je sais qu'Orange a sortie une ROM avec le GPS. Ayant un abo orange, que se passera t il si je mets cette rom? Y a t il un risque de shooter mon téléphone?

D'avance merci
