Orbit2, No GPS signal!! - Touch Cruise General

I have O2 orbit2 in german and I've been trying to download the QuickGPS update for some months but every time it downloads to 100% and then it says "probleme with signal/conection try aqain later" but it never works and I have no GPS :-(.
Can anybody help?

Don't know if you still have this problem.
Anyhow, same thing happened to me. Tried all the registry imports but it didn't work. Couldn't even change my external gps settings, which were all set to zero. TomTom never found a gps device.
Backed up my phone with spb backup; did a hard reset; verified that gps was now working and that quickgps was updating correctly; restored my backup and finished. All is working now.
This may be a side effect of not having enough free memory on the device side, which causes certain files to go corrupt, i.e. drivers etc.
Hope this helps a bit....

I had the problem as well.
I tried other solutions found in other threads, but finally a hard reset did the job.
Édan's guess that the lack of free memory is the source is likely since my problem occured after i got several messages about too less memory.

GPS Software "Destinator" not working..

Hi All,
I have installed Destinator 6/7 (both versions) many times and it worls for 1-2times and then it stops at the first screen and today screen pops up again. The top status bar is destinator but lower half is today screen.
I even flashed my Wizard many times with diffrent flavours of WM 5 and 6. It works hardly once or twice then same problem.
Everytime I hard reset it, it works 1 time and then again the problem is shown.
Has anyone has managed to make any version of destinator to work (either 6 or 7) on any WM??? Does anyone have the same problem with me???
Thanks in advance.
Working on WIZA200
IPL=2.26
SPL=2.26
GSM=2.25.11
OS=2.26.10.2 (using a WM5 ROM)
Hi,
With destinator 6 I never had any problems.
It was working with WM5 and with WM6.
Sometimes I had to stop all other programs to get more free memory.
Did you test this already?
Hi,
I've been using Destinator 6 without any issues on my K-jam. I suggest you to uninstall everything except maps on SD. Then, install it again on the main memory. Also, surf on the Destinator technology site if there's an upgrade or something to your country.
Wish you luck!
Cheers!
hi, i had the same problem that you have now, but only with wm6,
i find out that when i hard reset my device or upgrade a new rom i allways backuped all my pim data using pimbackup 2.5.
then after the upgrade i restored all my pim info, and then the problem with destinator 6 or 7 begins.
the solution for me was that when i backuped my pim data i unchecked an option in the pimbackup called ""binary backup"", then after that, when i restore the pim data ,destinator works fine.
so, are you restoring your personal data using pimbackup?
if so, maybe this is the solution
by the way, i am using a prophet
Thanks for your replies..
Today I re-installed TNT.1933_Prof_HTC ROM and increased pool size to 12 MB. Right now the memory stats are:
Storage Memory Free = 38.8 MB
Program Memory Free = 18.2 MB
Destinator and Maps both are installed on the Storage Card (2 GB) with 200 MB free space. This made it to work for 2 times and again it stopped.
Also, I realized that the program actually crashes as there is no entry of the program in the task manager.
So this has rather become a crash issue with Destinator.
Any insight will be very much apreciated...
And, I use a Bluetooth based GPS receiver.
Thanks.
I don't think it is a memory issue. As detailed in the last post it has some 16 MB of mem free.
joesa: Yes, I also use PIM Backup to restore my Emails/SMS. Do you think that is causing the problem. I'll try to disable the bin backup while restoring.
Thank you for the clue.
I don't know V7.0 but I think it should be very similar than V6. I insist you to install the core app into the main memory and just leave all maps on SD. Then, you can hard reset many times without having to install maps again. I'm telling you exactly what my local support said at the time I faced installation issues with V6.
Good luck btw....
This indeed was a crash issue due to unwanted binaries. Thanks joesa for that clue. After disabling that binary option in PIMBackup the problem disappeared. Destinator is working Fine on my Wizard (Both program and maps on SD).
Thanks a lot for sharing your experiences.

i think so after open and close Destinator 7 he don´t close the speeks after open again, no sound is avaliable, need soft resset for work again.
Only in destinator 7 i detect this, in destinator 6 works fine.

Ok, but is there a solution for us, who do not want to do a hard reset?
I just reinstalled everything on Thursday, can't do it again
Maybe backup and restore PIM without hard reseting, and with unchecked binary setting? Would this work?

i'm afraid that if you don't have a previus rom backup(sprite, spbbackup), before using pimbackup, you would have to hard reset, i never was able to make it work after restoring my pim data with pimbackup(binary)
5thWheel said:
I'm having this problem without doing anything to my PIM. It seemed to start arbitrarily. Is the restore of PIM modifying some files somewhere in a manner that Destinator doesn't like? If so, which files? Maybe mine got modified by some other app and if I delete/manually alter them I can get it going again?

it took me a lot of time to find out that pimbackup(binary) was the program that screwed destinator(guess it has something to do with databases), what i did to find the program was:
hard reset, install destinator and tried, install next of my needed program and tried destinator, install next program and tried, and so untill i found wich program screws destinator,
sorry i can't help
good to hear that !!!!!!
Would Activesync contribute with the crash?
I haven't any pim backup in my TYTN II and hard reseting the ppc every week is complicated.
Think I'll stop using Destinator.
Problem stills...
Any news????
I have an htc touch pro and installed destinator 7. It worked well for a few days and then suddenly refused to load. It crashed at the start screen. After a lot of experimenting I found the solution. I deleted all my sms-mms contents and then destinator was working again! I believe that certain characters from sms's are the cause, since destinator has a built in facility to send an sms. It's annoying though since each time you have a crash you need to remove your sms contents.
kospan - you're my man due to having the same issue i tried ypour solution and - that's it!!! i'm glad to tell you and all those who having this problem, too, that it's only the MMS - if you delete only all stored mms then it will work fine again too
I'm glad I could help! So only MMS? I guess that is good news because I will be able to keep my sms, which are far more than the mms.
need to delete both SMS/MMS
In my diamond, i had to delete both the SMS/MMS to make the destinator work.
Thank you guys for your support.

Can't run anything...

I have WM6 running on a HTC Trinity (the Orange SPV M700 variant) has been wonderful for over a month now, last night I reset it cause I hadn't in ages and it was getting all bunged up and slow, when it came back everything just stopped working.
Touchflo, HTCHome, all the stuff i had running on startup instantly blasted errors at me, and all the applications i have installed wont run, including .cab installers..
The error is:
"The File [File name] cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring the file."
I'm not one of these idiots who just panicks and complains about a problem, i've searched google a lot, found that its probably the 'security configuration' and found a program that should be able to change it, only, it can't connect to it properly through activesync, i assume because of the same thing. I would just wipe it clean, even re-flash the ROM if i had too, but I want to back everything up first with something like PPCPimBackup which has worked wonders in the past, only, I can't run the executable...
If it really comes down to it i will just manually backup my contacts list and suffer the other losses, but i'm sure there is some genious on these forums who has a magic sollution..
Always keep in mind, it's called a Pocket PC, because it's just like a PC. So from here on out, be sure to reset daily, it's quick and can help over a long run. As far as it not running now (don't know if you have fixed it yet) but try another reset, sometimes when there are too many startup apps, it can cause some chaos and certain apps won't run. Or try uninstalling the apps not working and reinstalling after a reset, after the uninstall.
Also, always a great idea to backup.
I would like to think i'm pretty good with computers, if this happened on my laptop or desktop I'd be able to find the registry values or find a program to change them for me to stop it blocking the apps from running.
Trouble is, I can't run the PPC version of RegEdit because it is blocking EVERY .exe, If it wasn't PPC i'd boot it up in safe mode, using all the default values, but there isn't on in WM6 by default (to my knowledge anyway)
I've reset many times and nothing changes, turned it off, even taken the battery out just in case it made a difference.
I think i'm going to have to do a hard reset and suffer the losses..
Sometimes a hard reset is the only solution.
Saw this in a signautre from NiteStalker, both hilarious and true, "If knowledge is counted in Hard Resets, I must be a genious!"

I've never seen this problem before... unable to install/uninstall applications?

Hello,
No matter what application I would try to install, it would fail right away. I thought that maybe the last application I installed was the problem, so I went to uninstall it from the settings menu. When I got to the Remove Programs list, it was empty! I cannot install or uninstall applications!
The last program I was able to install was this: http://wmpoweruser.com/?p=3646
Can anyone help me fix this, or will I need to hard reset?
I gave up and just did a hard reset.
SKTools
Hi
for anybody else still facing this issue, SKTools may help you.
Cheers

i have same problem, i do tweak registry settings, but haven't for about 2 weeks before this problem happened. tried to use sktools to uninstall programs, but same result.
any suggestions? i do have a registered install of sktools for smartphone.
btw, im using a BJII with 6.1
Also, just realized i cant access the "about", "Accessability", or "owner info" info in "settings", it gives me "ERROR The settings could not be opened"
however, "version" and some others in the "settings" menu work fine (i haven't gone thru and tested all of them)
I have already performed a couple soft resets, with no change. seems like something pretty basic is F'ed. any ideas would be appreciated, i am planning to hard reset tonight if i dont get this taken care of...... So so much to re setup/install.... :-(
i did a hard reset, reflashed my bjII to the most recent 6.1 ROM. and now it is doing the same thing AGAIN!.
i have done no registry mods besides unlocking the keys ATT tries to restrict for their ghey medianet/cellularvideo links. and that has NEVER caused any issues before.
i Have installed:
NETCF3.5
Live Search
LEDAlertsSP
GoogleMapsMobile
Resco Explorer
Opera
SKTools
Increase Ringtone size to 25mb
the only app i haven't tried before is Twikini (a twitter app) it seems to work perfectly, but it is the only thing i have not had on my phone for an extended period of time.
Anyone with advice on how i can go about finding out what the real issue here is please lemme know.

Hello I think it wasnt necessary, I had the same problem twice, and flashed it again, and restored the rom and it keeped on non working. So the first thing i did was to unmount the sd card and mount it again and it worked for a while.
Afterwards I format microSD card- FAT32, other guy wrote in a forum with 4096.
here is the link hope it works for you

Problem with runaway HTC driver slowing down Touch Pro

Ok, this one has me baffled. About a week ago my Touch Pro, with the stock Sprint ROM, started running very slow. At first I thought it was GPS related as the last software I had installed (earlier that weekend) was GPS Tuner.
After uninstalling all of my GPS related software with no improvement, I downloaded MemMaid and was able to determine that device.exe was running at anywhere between 75%-100% CPU usage. Unfortunately, that still left open a lot of possible source to the problem, so I decided to backup what I could and perform a hard reset.
I tried the "Clear Storage" method first, and when that did not fix the problem I used the HW keys to reset. Even after two hard resets device.exe was still abusing my CPU, so I tried reflashing the stock ROM...
No improvement.
So I tried flashing NSFFAN's WM6.5 ROM...
No improvement.
So I tried reflashing the stock Radio...
No improvement.
At this point I discovered SKTools and, through a little trial and error, was able to pinpoint the problem driver to HTCNavi.dll. If I stop this driver from running, device.exe goes back to normal CPU usage, which would be great except that I'm no longer be able to use the Home, Back, Talk or Hang-Up buttons.
I have also tried NavDbgTool.exe, thinking that maybe the buttons were sending erroneous messages to the OS, but even that seems to be a dead end as all buttons and touch surfaces responded appropriately and no unintended behaviors were observed.
Has anyone else run across this problem? Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
jcmoneta

Samsung sgh-i780 stuck on vibrate mode

Hello,
In the last few months, I have experienced a strange problem:
Sometimes, when I turn off the ringer and use on vibration, the phone seems to stuck on this mode even if I turn the ringer back on. I cannot play any kind of sound until I restart my phone. To solve this problem once and for all, I have performed hard reset, however the problem persists.
I miss very important calls as a result of this problem, is there a solution?
Thanks in advance,
Michael
I remember a friend having this issue. I seem to remember the solution.
explore to application data/volatile and delete all files within folder and soft reset.
If you don't feel safe about it first copy or move all files to a new folder on your sdcard before deleting.
hope it helps.
good day.
I saw this solution in another forum and it did not work. Besides, I had performed a hard reset so all my phone memory was deleted, however the problem returned.
Maybe the problem is on the SD card or something.
What type of results do you get plugging the head phone adapter in and out? But only when the lack of sound occurs.
And any suspect software installs recently?
good day.
I need to wait until the problem reoccures to check with the headphones.
The softwares installed on my device are:
Opera mobile
Opera mini
SPB Time
SPB Mobile
S2U2 (I have unistalled it for now to check if it has something to do with my problem)
* I think the problem began after I had restored my phone using SPB backup a few months ago, however I am not sure 100%
Thanks again
