xda 2i & tt5 traffic - General Topics

ok i have tried something else
i followed these instructions from this site about caller id..
can some1 else give it a go as well on monday if you want
Here is a step by step instruction:
1. as you can see i've excluded this part
2. Remove the file IA_CD-Startup.exe from \Windows\Startup on your device.
3. Rename iacontacts.dll to something else (e.g. old-iacontacts.dll). This file is in the \Windows directory of your device but is hidden. However you can rename it using your PC. Open Windows explorer, and navigate to Mobile Device>My PocketPC>Windows.
4. Rename displayCID.dll to something else (e.g. old-displayCID.dll). Access it via your PC the same as for the previous step.
5. Soft reset
i then tried traffic and it worked first time & 2nd time it froze BUT i remove the sd card and it went into the main menu ,i just cancelled & tomtom was working again fine with updates again ......
now understandably i have only tried this once ,i will try it more tomorrow when i am back on the road
i know what you are all saying GOOD LUCK BUDDY ,and yes it probably WONT work.... well probably should be left out but if you don't try you will never know

Traffic works fine for me with those files, but the problem is the GPRS reconnect after a long phone call as it always drops GPRS during a call, then I have to restart the radio to get it working again.

ok it's still happening so it can't be that
will have to wait till the next rom update ,looks like it might be left out correctly

Hello,
QuickGPS doesn't download ephemeral data. I always have a good internet connectiond and I tried it often. It succeeded for me exactly once. The first time I tried it. I powercycled my device. After that it was possible to install the cab (I think the old quickgps application was running). And after that I was able to download my ephemeral data.

Ok, so here's my experience with my O2 Orbit 2, after two frustrating days and reading most topics on QuickGps, I think I understand what the problem is. So here's how i fixed my phone's QuickGps without installing any cab but just 1 download and playing with the registry.
My Orbit2's QuickGps worked perfectly for some months but and at some point some days ago it just stopped working. I started reading the topics here, and seen there's so many answers... but none worked.
I've set the registry keys as above... and nothing.
Well, that's because it's not just setting the keys. It's a bit more. A friend of mine also helped me, he has the same phone as I do (O2 Orbit 2) and I borrowed it for one day to compare the content of the two phones (registry and files).
So, the main cause why QuickGps stops working is because at some point, the ephemerides download that is stored in \Windows\xtra.bin gets corrupted.
So, if your QuickGps stops working, what you need to do first is check the size of the file \Windows\xtra.bin. If it's less than about 42k then it's corrupted. It's usual size is about 48K.
So you need to delete that file and download a new copy manually.
1. Download
http://service.mio-tech.com/eeservice/packedephemeris.ee
and rename it to xtra.bin. Then connect your phone via ActiveSync and copy that file to your mobile's Windows folder, eg \Windows\xtra.bin
2. Disconnect Activesync
3. Do a softreset
4. After reset, Launch QuickGps, you will see that it has updated the ephemerides data. You need to do this so the values of the registry get updated correctly.
Note: When you do this, the following registry keys should get updated by QuickGps automatically:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\QuickGPS]
"RemindTime"
"Bias"
"ExpiredTime"
So you don't need to edit them.
5. Kill QuickGps
6. Do a softreset
7. After reset, launch a registry editor and make sure you have these values in
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\QuickGPS]
"folder"="\Windows\"
"region"="GB"
"INIDate"="20060531"
"remind"=dword:00000000
"actSync"=dword:00000001
"auto"=dword:00000000
"NotifyID"=dword:00001960
"INIFile"=""
"path"=""
"EEFile"="xtra.bin"
"curRegion"=dword:00000000
"curIP"=dword:00000000
"pwd"="1"
"authname"="1"
Please keep in mind that the key entry
"region"="GB" is region dependant, so you might have different entries like "region"="US" or "region"="AU" depending on where your location is.
8. Kill the registry editor, and re-launch it. Make sure the values from step 7 are in there and then kill the registry editor again. Repeat step 8 until you have the above values in the registry (I found out that for some reason, some registry entries were changed when phone was connected via ActiveSync or after I've run QuickGps and not softreset after).
9. Connect the phone to ActiveSync and launch Internet Explorer or a browser and go to any site, like Google or whatever. Once the page has been loaded, just wait a few seconds and kill the browser.
Explanation: you need to do this step because sometimes QuickGps just fails to connect even if there is an internet connection available. So you basically just force an internet connection. I was stuck 1 day at this point, my friend's phone and mine had the exact same xtra.bin (copied from his mobile to mine) and the same registry keys. However, my phone wasn't working and his was So sometimes it's not just the registry keys it is about enforcing a connection as well.
10. Run QuickGps and attempt to "Download" an update. It should not fail.
Just don't run anything manually inbetween steps, follow them.
If for any reason this guide does not work for you, then the problem most likely lies in the registry keys and/or the QuickGps's internet connection.
This method worked for me, hope it works for you. Let me know
Nice, my Quickgps is now working . Thanks
Menkul
It works for me great to!
Best Regards!
Works for me as well! Well it did once I realised I hadn't changed curegion from 1 to 0!
Many thanks
Thanks
Works for me too!!!!!!!
I used to have 6 days valid time and now its only 2d and 23h !!! I think ExpiredTime must be changed.
Many thanks
I had some problems with quickGPS, and now I´m using "seaSGEE" it´s a lot better, try it, you don´t need to install just place it anywhere and execute

You're welcome. You need to edit and enter:
"ExpiredTime"=dword:00002760
But I guess you probably already did that
That will give you 7 days (6d 23h 59m )

I have the same problem when I try to do an update I get a message "connection failed try later".. I do this via WIFI as I have never been able to connect internet via Activesync/USB.. Just was able to update meteo.. Can ayone help amnd givng me simple instruction on how to dela ??? Thank you:co
Mmm, yeah. Mine was working fine until 2 weeks or so ago, would ask me to download every 6 days and complete that just fine. Since then it fails to connect. I ended up just setting it not to try and download at all. It was getting annoying.
Is the update server dead or...?

I wonder.. I put the question to HTC and tehy suggested to do a hard reset... not very helpful.. What solution? Have you tried the manipulation indicated above? Did it fix the problem?

Upgrading To Wm6..help TREO 750

Any help would be great on this, I have unlocked Treo 750 from cingular, I downloaded the updater from palm with my serial number, and started the update, according to the final screen there was an error during installation, it wanted to start all over again and I could not stay and finish. I disconnected the phone from the pc, it had the screen on it as if it was new to setup, do the touch screen thing, set the time and date etc.
I did all that and the phone seemed to be working fine. I have been using it for a week now and no problems. the only glitch I am having is the bluetooth keeps dropping off, not connecting for my Motorola earpiece. it is hit and miss.
so, I decided that when I had some time I would start the update again and hope that it would overwrite everything, or delete it and then start a entire new install again. surprise, it started but then message said update was not needed and that was it.
any advice on this, I would like to do a total new install again, just thinking there is something that did not complete during the first install.
thanks in advance for any suggestions.
ps. I have not tried a hard reset, as I was told since this is an unlocked phone, I may not get it started again.
several ways to address, but to use what you already have, extract the contents of the updater to a new folder on your desktop, look for payloads.xml. open in notepad and change the following lines to higher numbers as I have:
<revision_no>2.28</revision_no>
<high>3.00</high>
Save the file and close. Now find index.hta and doubleclick - follow the prompts.
if that dosnt work dont be afraid to hard reset. i have an unlocked 750 and ive hard reset twice. its painless, just make sure to back up all your files on a storage card.

HELP!! S640 users need files!!!

I think I screwed up and overwrote something in the windows directory.
I think it's one of these three files - netbios.dll, netui.dll or redir.dll
I put those files in the windows directory, then installed HTC network rom
and now my wifi shows the icon in the top, won't go away won't connect.
and for WLAN settings I only have -> 1. Connection Status
2. LEAP
3. Enroll
4. Power Mode
I am missing the options that is usually 1. WIFI ,where you can search and connect to networks.
any ideas? or do you have those files I can have?
thanks in advance
Never mind I just hard resetted it. then brought my backup back.
first time I used my backup so It's good to know it works!!!!

[HELP] Can't do anything with SOD.

I'm going through this problem for almost 4 weeks, just when I was away of a computer by 1 mile..
I was getting problems to connect to internet with my PDA, and nothing worked.
Then some apps stopped working (like Messenger, Internet Explorer, and such included apps) and I decided to format my phone by using the HardSPL method. Installed everything again, and then everything was working fine.
After a few days, the buttons stopped working: Couldn't answer calls, or use D-Pad, couldn't get off standby mode and so on. Every time I needed to use my phone, I got to hardreset the PDA, wait it to power on, and use it. It was VERY annoying. So, formatted again and installed a new ROM. Everything worked fine and after a few days, again.. Couldn't get off standby mode.
I read somewhere that it happens when the SD card becomes faulty. It was. I formatted the SD and copied all the contents again. Formatted again the phone, and installed everything again. After a few minutes (yes, minutes), the phone wasn't responding again. I got to plug the headphones and press the HF key and sometimes it got back from standby.
When phone is kind of.. "null", I can't receive calls. SMS are rejected. But the power, Bluetooth and Wifi light keeps blinking as it was active.
I'm using a temporary phone right now. I can't handle it anymore. But I miss my PDA :S
A bit more info: I'm using Spanish NiAX WM6.5.3 ROM. And first ROM was Spanish NiAX WM6.5.1. Maybe it's a ROM fault. I don't know :S
Suggestions?
Thanks in advance..
PS: Read some other threads about this. Switched 3G/2G, changed SIMCARD and SDCard and still not working
EDIT
The problem is my Polaris has a couple bad blocks on its NAND.
In traditional english: The support of the OS (AKA Windows Mobile, or Android, for example) is damaged, so in certain points the data written becomes inaccessible or has trash data. That's the reason the phone doesn't wake up.
I can happen too if you have a faulty SDCard. The point is: Some data couldn't be read.
Currently I'm researching about how to live with this. There's nothing to do with Windows Mobile as far as I know, but we can make it work by using some custom set-up of Android.
I'll let you all know if I get some news, or see HERE where I'll post everything I find
Regards!
Bump!
Please, I'm travelling this week and my temporary phone now is broken, too...

That could be your problem(corrupted files) Check for viruses too(Not too careful)
Thanks A LOT for your answer.
I think that can't be the problem, since I formatted the SD card and put all the fresh content again (music an cabs from my home PC).
I found out that a new fresh installed rom works fine, until I install any cab.
The cabs I have, are stored on SDcard and installed to Phone Memory.
Maybe CABS are faulty. Or it's not recommendend to install from the SDCard.
I'll try installing the new rom again, and Installing all cabs from Activesync.
I'll publish any news.
Thanks!
Still not working.
I read somewhere that this is caused by SRS WOW with Security off patch.
tomorrow I'll reinstall the rom again, and all the software without that cab.
Worked fine for 3 minutes, SDCard wasn't plugged and failed once installed Simcard.
What comes into my mind, try downgrading everything to official HTC ROM, by everything i mean also radio(unplug sdcard and simcard when flashing)
Then check if it works, if not maybe there's hardware fault.
Try different simcard too.
What software are you using?
I suggest you follow pcarvalhos or alexander-voigt instructions on how to flash (basically you have to flash official wm6.1 before flashing a ROM if you observe stability issues) and then flash pcarvalho, alexander voigt (or mines). It should work if you follow the instructions exactly. Then try again Niax' rom
Post #1 updated about the reason of this.

I'm back to wm (official htc rom), and I can not fix the satellites (from Sense 3.5)...solution?
If you turn off gps in android you also turn gps off in windows mobile. Sounds a bit weird I know. I had this problem too. Solution was to flash back to Android turn gps on and flash to windows mobile.

You have the chance - like me :fingers-crossed: - to kill the phone as seen above. In that moment, all "heavy" members are silence . Nobody (can) help.
The only way to have back your phone is pay money in service center ! So, be careful when you try this !

NOT WORK !
To be honest: there is always a risk in flashing phones or other things.
And there is always a case where the usual way don't work.
I flashed my HD mini 20 - 30 times WM <-> Android, i tried everything what's provided here and my phone is still fine.
One thing that i can read (and not only here in this subforum) is, that the following way can bring the phone back alive. But you have to use the correct RUU (from your carrier) and maybe a goldcard (don't know on what this depends, i never needed one):

Go to microsoft activesync "connection settings" and untick "allow usb connection". Boot your phone to 3 color screen. Connect your phone to computer via usb. Open mtty.exe and select usb connection. Click ok. If all is ok enter these 3 commands:
task 29 and press enter
task 2a and press enter
task 8 and press enter
Boot again to 3 color screen. Open your favorite ruu instaler and install wince. Thats all.

So, "If you turn off gps in android you also turn gps off in windows mobile. Sounds a bit weird I know. I had this problem too. Solution was to flash back to Android turn gps on and flash to windows mobile."
My phone not detect satellites - gps is detected in iGo. It is another way to repair this without "flash back to Android" ?
Thank you for intervention.
LE: In that moment, i run this http://code.google.com/p/photon-android/wiki/Android_Installation_Tutorial from sd card. I enable gps in android and launch "Navigation" but it stuck in "searching for gps". I can ' t acces market to install https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eclipsim.gpsstatus2&hl=en. How can i include GPS Status in android on sd card to see if my phone detect some satellites or not?
Maybe you have to play a little bit with GPS Settings: Put it on, see if it works, shut down phone, try GPS under WM 6.5, then start Android again, try GPS again (if it worked under WM), or put GPS off, restart phone and do this on and on again, as long as GPS is working under both (WM & Android).
I had also no GPS at first time and this way worked for me. But i know this can be annoying!

You also must remove it from your quote
You must allow in settings that you can install apps from another place as Google play.
You can install the apk by tapping it from a file manager like ES File Explorer.
