GPS disfunctionality, on/off within 2-3 sec

[Cristian.Ene]

Hey guys,

I have an issue with my Diamond, i don't know why but when i use the GPS function on my phone, with IGO8, it looses connection with the satelites. 2-3 seconds on,.. than,... 4... 90 seconds off.
I really dont' know what's going on.

Can you assist me please?

ROM: Duttys V2.6 Rc1 WWE
Radio: 1.00.25.07
Protocol: 52.29.25.12h

Sounds like you have switched on assisted GPS (AGPS). You need to turn it off then all should work.

I have almost the same issue with destinator. It finds 4-6 satellites but it drops down to 2 satellites after some seconds - sometimes minutes.
I am talking on open-air environment (aka. national road) not in the city where buildings can be the reason.
Is there any patch (like GPSFix) ? I had HTC 3300 and worked like a beauty, I am getting really dissapointed with this.
And where is that AGPS function?

If you don't have an aGPS-setting in well.. settings, you can use schaps advanced config to disable it.

I had the exact same problem and it was solved by switching off AGPS.

increase baud rate IN Igo8 to 38400 (don't autodetect)

check navifriends.de forum for MN7 Diamond bugs. Reg key change necessary. Prob is solved there.

I had the same problem. Try to change rom and radio and try different combinations. Now, I haven`t any problems. Everything works perfectly! Btw. I have last Swift`s ROM and RADIO *.08.
Best Regards!

This is the solution....you have inadvertantly turned on A-GPS......turn it off, soft reset, clear data acquired for GPS then do cold start using HTC GPS Tool.......

I'm sure this will work
