Raphael is not supported by Navigon. For now I used a portsplitter (Franson GPSgate). settings: Input com4, active output: GPSgate direct. Start navigon and use GPS wizzard manuel. After this it works.
By a soft reset you have to do it again. It seems somewhere in november Navigon comes with a update for the Raphael.
thanks a lot!! dude,
anybody heard about when NAVIGON comes with an update for Rafael???
so i dont need the gpsgate!!
Navigon mn7 works for Raphael.
You might also have to make sure aGPS is turned off, sometimes that's makes these GPS apps act up.
I have to say that i have used Navigon 6.5 and 7 without any problems.
I did however have 2 problems small problems after installing:
1. When i tried to start it up that i would only see a white screen, but this was solved by reinstalling.
2. When installing on a ROMeOS custom rom Navigon could not find a gps receiver. This was solved by a patch that ROMeOS made.
Hope it works for you because i personally love navigon
Hi,I have installed tomtom 7 validated maps etc. How do I turn my GPS ON? When I start TT7 the message that I read at the bottom is "Waiting for a vlid GPS signal"
Is there a setting to turn the GPS on?
Thanks in advance.
Search for HTC GPS Lock. I had the same issue on my Fuze and after getting an initial lock using HTC GPS Tool, I now can get a lock every time and fairly quickly using TT.
thanks, i will try it.

Did you find "HTC GPS Lock". Can you share the link?
I receive yesterday a HTC Fuze (ATT) and has not been able to get the GPS working with TT7, Garmin, GM nor LiveSearch

Have fun.
Thanks, the GPS Tool worked liek a charm, Mt TT7 is now working great and I am loving it. I tested it last night on my way back home.Surprisingly, I had no GPS lag issues, It was spot on. I am using TT7.450 and Map 7.20.
You guys rock..thanks alot for the help.
Hello everyone,
I have a HTC Touch Pro since october 2008 but are still unable to use the gps with google maps.
Google maps is preinstalled on my device but can never use the gps to locate my position.
Now I heart something about unlocking your gps of you htc touch pro before you can use your gps in google maps.
This is the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=490400
I don't know if this is suitable for my HTC Touch Pro too.
I hope somone can help me.
Thanks a lot!

what rom are you running right now? Assuming you're using a GSM phone, I doubt verizon's method would work for you. Try flashing a new rom.
Rom version: 5.05.404.1 NLD
There is no newer rom version.
I bought my HTC Touch Pro without a carrier, so my HTC Touch Pro is unlocked.
But I can't use my GPS with applications as Google Maps as long as my GPS is locked.
But I don't know if I can use the fix which is discribed in the link I placed.
In GoogleMaps: Menu > Use satellite...
and wait for a fix... (could last up to 4-5mn depending on reception conditions)
But before, check in GoogleMaps options that you have let Windows to handle (integrated) GPS.
Yea it sounds ass backwards, but what he said is true. If your turning it on hitting gps and you get nothing,, thats about right. Wait a bit and see what happens. I use my phone for geocaching almost daily, and am running the stock att rom. My gps works perfectly besides the fact that it takes around 30 secs to lock. However trying to run (most) third party apps WITHOUT googlemaps running first. It will just sit there all day and never get gps. (depends what program were talking about but most will never get lock until google maps is running)
what radio are you on?
Also, I had a terrible time getting a GPS lock with Google Maps on my unbranded Touch Pro.
Recently I downloaded the latest version from www.google.co.up/gmm (think that's right enter it into your Opera browser) and it has improved tremendously. No GPS locks a lot faster - less than 30 seconds, whilst previously it would take minutes or not at all.
Try downloading a newer version and see how that helps.
Thanks!
All of you!
I download a new version of Google Maps and installed it.
After that I set all the properties the same as I had under Start>Settings>System>GPS.
And after about 20 seconds I had a fix and it worked.
(and this was in house)
Now just at the street I get a fix in about 5 seconds and I have a log of zero until one.
So thanks all!
Okay so I'm finally going to request assistance from the xda community for a problem that I seem to be having that I cannot resolve. I live in California and my provider is ATT and of course I'm using the HTC Touch Pro (Fuze.) And I'm trying to get my GPS to work. My phone is hard flashed with the Elite RC4 ROM and I've tried a couple different radios being:
1.12.25.19 - Raphael Radio from Test rom
1.14.25.05 - Newest Raphael Radio
Neither of these work because after using QuickGPS to download the data I have used HTC GPS Tool, GPS Test, and VisualGPS to 'kick start' my GPS and none of them work. I would like to note that I was on COM4 and tried two different baud rates being:
38400
4800
When I try to get a lock (I've waited for 5 minutes or so standing outside) using either of these radios after about 10 seconds I get the horrible 'Fix not available' status message even though HTC GPS Tool shows a visual of the satellites, although they're red dots and not green.
I would really like to get my GPS functioning again as it used to work when I was still using Elite ROM RC1 and I wasn't really sure what radio I was using since I didn't mess around with it. Any help would be greatly appreciated! And Elite's RC4 current ROM auto configures the GPS settings for what I assume is optimal lock-on time.
Do you have Google Maps installed? My GPS didn't work at all until I uninstalled it.
No go...
I just tried it out and it still does the same thing. I would really like to use my phone as a GPS because I like to travel a lot and do some geocaching and even though a dedicated GPS would be nice, I have a perfectly good one built into my phone already and I would like to be able to take advantage of that.
aGPS?
Does the elite RC4 include the aGPS panel in Settings? AT&T finally got aGPS working, and if that ROM doesn't include the updated aGPS SuplRootCert & corresponding registry settings, it may not work correctly. I'll try and track down what you need to get it working, which I believe to be the following:
rilphone.dll from AT&T Test ROM
SuplRootCert for AT&T aGPS
AT&T aGPS registry settings
There may be a few more drivers involved, but I'm not exactly sure what they are. I'll look into it and see if I can pull them from the AT&T Test ROM and cab them up for you.
That sounds good! I've been ripping my hair out and scouring the forums for similar problems and such, but I've had no success. If you could cab them together that would be just great!
There are cabs for the rilphone.dll , I'm not sure about the other two. Here is the link to the rilphone.dll cabs. Post one has the raphael 1.12, post two has raphael 1.14. Make sure you use the right one.
Yeah I actually tried using the rilphone.dll for the 1.14 already and I still get these results.
I'm having the same problem, GPS isn't able to get a fix either.
Tried several ROM's: Proven 4.1 & 4.2 as well as Energy 3.0 however getting same problem.
Deathstar aGPS Fix
I flashed the elite RC4 ROM, so I could verify that GPS wasn't working for me, and that the cab would fix it.
It turns out, the ROM includes the aGPS confirmation package from the AT&T Test ROM, as well as the same QuickGPS version & rilphone.dll (1.12.25.19 radio). The only things missing were the correct AT&T registry settings, and the SuplRootCert. I obtained the reg settings from a cab At0mAng posted in the aGPS thread, and the SuplRootCert came from an EnergyROM thread. I combined them into this cab, and was able to get a GPS lock.
Give it a try, and let me know if it works for you.
P.S. Just wanted to note that I was able to get a GPS fix with the ROM prior to installing the cab file (w/aGPS disabled). So your problem might lie elsewhere, if the cab doesn't work.
Problem is GPS is turning on & off like a blinking light. Tried several applications: Visual GPS and Navigon. Can't try your solution since I have a Vodafone NL subscription
Okay I tried your cab and still no go, I'm going to try flashing my radio again to 1.12.25.19 with the rilphone.dll for it and see what happens. Thanks for the help so far, I really hope to get somewhere with this soon. And it sounds like that Wolfje and I are having the same problem.
Edit: Alright, tried 1.12.25.19 and the rilphone.dll for it and it didn't work, and then I tried installing the cab you put together for me again and tried it once more but it still doesn't work.
It's not the radio version 1.11.25.01 what's causing the problem.
I just switched back to an older Proven ROM 2.4 with WM61 and problems are gone however radio version is the same.
Hmm That's interesting. I have really grown attached to Elite ROM and I didn't want to try another, but I may give it a shot to see if it fixes it. I've actually been using Point UI's Home 2 as my interface. So I won't miss out on too much I suppose.
Please let me know if you've got a WM 6.5 ROM with working GPS since the Proven ROM is a WM 6.1 one
Problem seems to be Navigon Mobile Navigator, got GPS working with both Igo8 as well as Sygic now.
try proven rom wm6.5 4.3

Try any RRE 6.5 rom....aruppenthal's roms have the aGPS working correctly... and i personally recommend the 25.19 radio...you dont have to worry about getting the rilphone, its already cooked into the rom

An update -
Based on this post by Da_G . . .
Da_G said:
There's a handful of crucial components for proper AGPS support:
radio rom > 1.12.xxxx
gpsdriver.dll + gpsid_htc.dll from 5.08 at&t rom
suplrootcert from 5.08 at&t rom
agpsnvsetting = 1 in registry
then you need the registry settings for proper agps server, port, APN, gprs connection name

. . . my previous cab was missing a few *crucial* components necessary for aGPS to work properly for AT&T (bolded above). Attached is an updated cab. However, as I previously posted, I could in fact get a GPS fix using the RC4 ROM, so the problem might be elsewhere. It couldn't hurt to try, I guess. Its also possible the cab won't install on the ROM (because it includes DLLs, though they are signed), but it'll tell you that when you try. Let me know if it helps at all.

Just come across this thread and the reg setting works perfectly w/ my X1. Thx
edit: nm, did more testing and found thoses server are expired and not really working.....
Hey guys,
Any suggestions on what to look into for fixing the GPS functionality on my VZW Touch Pro? I'm running the latest NFSFAN ROM. It shows no satellites in GPS Viewer, even after 20 minutes of standing outside with a clear view. I've tried turning aGPS on and off, flashed different radios, as well as tweaking the registry for QuickGPS (changed the servers from where QuickGPS fetches the latest data, and yes I know QuickGPS is irrelevant if aGPS is turned on ).
I've been Googling on this for the past couple of days and tried variations of everything I've read about. Any recent/relevant suggestions would be great Thank you!
Make your sure you have the verizon gps fix installed.

Hmm, not familiar with it? Is it the one they released last fall to unlock the GPS? I'm about to Google for it and read up, but is it something I need to install on a stock ROM? I'm running NFSFAN right now.
