Ok, this is really weird. My QuickGPS just stop working 2 days ago (on New Year Eve)... I get this error "connection failed. Please try again later"
I don't know if this is due to my connection or the connection to QuickGPS through Canada. Can someone from Canada (Montreal if possible) check this for me and let me know if you can update your QuickGPS?
---edit----
Ok, this is really weird QuickGPS work on Elite Project, but not on NATF...
thanks
Hmmm, I have the same problem too... I'm from Singapore btw.
NATF v3.2 and it QuickGPS works fine. I have had issues with it downloading new info if it was connected via USB, but not specific to a ROM. Disconnect the USB, and it downloaded immediately.
it does that alot for me too. just give it a while and try again later. works for me.
QuickGPS has always given me issues. It'll work for awhile, then one day I'll get the connection error message. I've discovered that a soft reset always fixes the problem immediately for me.

Heard there are issues with this andy, it seems xda2i doesn't like a headset plus something else with bluetooth running at the same time.

On the Tom Tom website it says version 5 is "available soon", and you already have it? How can that be?
got the upgrade pack mate, came in the post on thursday.
Where did you get it from then? I can't buy it from the Tom Tom website, because it just says "available soon".
Or is that just the software upgrade?
Then again, if the software is ready, the whole package should be available too, including the GPS device. Where do I get it?
No Idea, i found the webpage on the tom tom website for the upgrade and got it that way.
Don't know why the whole package is not avalable yet, have you checked other pda shops on the web to see if any?
TT% upgrade
Log out and re-log in on the main tom tom page, and it should appear for you...
Not too impressed with TT5 so far, but only loaded it last night
(TT Wired GPS for my car and oter Bluetooth GPS for when I'm not...)
TT5 and bluetooth.
Forgot to mention, I got in my car and had previously been using my BT GPS. XDA connected to BT car kit no worries, then I plugged in wired GPS - selected this GPS and TT5 turned BlueTooth off.... thanks Tom Tom, so I had to turn it back on for my car kit connection..
Pain in the butt.. :evil:
What should appear?

Hi all,
Got my Tomtom 5 Today yet the tomtom website says its still in the warehouse
Maybe they will send me another one
I doubt it, at least I have got it now

bugger!!! I have just bought an XDAIIi and installed 3.07 last week. It worked great until (as bluebotel has said in another thread) you go into another cell and the phone communicayes with the mast, then it locks up. I have tested tomtom 3.07 with the phone off, on, making a call with the GPS plug in and not plug in. Basically if the phone has to do something (call, change cell) and the GPS is plugged in, tomtom freezes. If you run tomtom but do not have the GPS plugged in (i.e. tomtom isnt actually navigating) then tomtom doesn't lock up when the phoned is used, so its obviously the GPS reciever, coupled with tomtom that buggering it up!!
Not sure what to do now, do i send the xda back, get different software or will there be a fix. I was going to try tomtom5, but looks like it suffers the same problem!! What a bag of crap!!!!
Does anyonbe know if it works with XDAIIs or XDAIII???
Hi all,
After receiving my Tomtom navigator 5 yesterday, I managed to drive to work this morning (Approx 20miles) without a lockup with the Phone ON!
We shall see how it performs whilst I use it. Upto now it seems a well worth product upgrade. In fact the thing that impresses me the most is the frame rate of the Navigator View. Its so smooth I could be playing a game. No screen jerks.
The whole software seems faster and fluent with integrated menus and web content. If the XDA2i doesn't lock up like it did on tomtom 3 then I will be more than pleased.
I'll keep you posted
Cheers
Lee
sounds promising!!!
If you go to the product section of Tomtom site it says the i is suported, but if you go to the support pages, it doesn't appear on the list!!!
I have a cracked copy of 5 to test before i buy it, but can't get it to inmstal
It didn't take me long to find how to make it freeze!
With the phone on it seems to be ok, still needs more testing, however; when you try to download traffic or weather updates using the GPRS, it freezes everytime.
So basically don't download updates or even have GPRS on in the background!
I'm still unsure if the phone causes it to freeze, its looking like it may do yet I haven't seem it do that yet only the GPRS connection.
I'll keep you posted.
Cheers

What a bag of cak!!
Just installed 5 and went to play in the car, but i can't get the GPS reciever to connect. I am using a holux cr100 cradle (wired), i select "other wired" and it just sits there searching, saying "no gps device". It worked fine on TT3

This is the same issue that I have with TT5...though if you perform the traffic update whilst connected to your PC instead, the update works fine and doesn't crash. It seems that the data is downloaded but then it can't update it into TT. If you wait a few mins, then tap the screen you get a slow menu, go to the TT traffic bit and it says "last updated 0 mins ago", so something is happening.
I'd appreciate any thoughts on this as this is the one thing that is currently hacking me off about TT5...everything else works fine.

*cough* BitTorrent *cough*
People who bought TT3 were sent out TT5 via CD recently.
I have had the same problem with the BT GPS. What I do is go into the menu and tap on GPS status. Magically the GPS starts to work and it shows all the fixes.
From then on wards it works fine other than the lockup when using GPRS to update Traffic.

Dear All,
After studying all the valuable information here, I managed to upgrademy XDA ii to WM5. It is beautiful.
However, there is one problem. GPRS connection only works for 1 time. It is fail on the second reconnection UNLESS I reset the phone.
The FIRST connection works fine. data coming thru and ok. After disconnection when I try to reconnect it again, it will not connect. Giving a message saying the "modem is disconnected".
Please help. Thanks
same here. on an XDA IIi 2003se.
Hi, I had the same problem with my DoPod 818. But I installed Phone Alarm (http://www.pocketmax.net/phoneAlarm.htm) which has an icon for connection and disconnetion GPRS and now it disconnect and reconnect perfect without resetting! Try it.
I have the same issue with my Wizard... I am wondering whether the newest version of SPB GPRSMonitor is causing the problem!? The problem occured after flashing the newest ROM (2.26 AKU2.3) - at the same time I also updated my GPRSMonitor version...
Hi,
I'm pretty familiar with smartphones/pocket pc/windows mobile, but I can't figure this one out...
I picked up a Treo 750 this week and it has the latest WM6.1 ROM and Latest Radio firmware.
For some reason, it will not connect to GPRS/EDGE/3G data on its own. It gives an error about not being able to connect, to which you can then click "dismiss". If I then go to data connections and edit the connection and just click next, next, finish - data will work fine - until the phone is reset and you start over again...
I've tried WM5, 6 and 6.1 ROMS and 5 different radios and they all do the same thing...
Anyone?

I have a bit different problem, but seems like yours.. sometimes, it doesnt try to connect, no failure message, but no try, my resolution is having spb gprs monitor, which i ever used, even i had this problem... in this case, only click connect and everything is ok... sometimes it doesnt connect or says message like yours on my other HTC XDAs (9000,9100....) but spb solved it everytime...
aaischa, I tried SPB but no luck...
Interestingly, I tried downgrading to WM5 and it works fine with that...
Anyone else having this problem?
Ok, so I ended up making a Mortscript to automatically connect. I attached it to this message in case anyone else needs it...

thanks, I had e the same problem
if only connect.mscr could run by itself
It would be great if connect.mscr could run when ever our treo's with hermes radios lost service. Mine with 154.07.00 once it looses service completely will not reconnect. If this script could run when the unit is not connected say every 10 minutes or so life would be good.
I have the same problem. Running 6.1 on the Telecom XT network in New Zealand...simply going into connections (as it says in the first post) and not doing anything solves it, but it is annoying. Any better solutions?
Radio: 1.56.70.11
ROM: WM6.1 (Treo750_OS5_2_19199WWE_STD)
I have an 8125 with the XDA Mobile 6 Release 5 FINAL ROM and the 5.1 update. I used the Cingualr GPRS CAB and the phone works, but when I try to download Outlook email, if downloads a few messages and then the connection is lost. No phone connection, nothing. If I reboot it usually works again.
Anyone know what might be wrong?
I have disassembeld to replace the case but seemed to work fine for a while.
I did try a few diferent ad ins and had a lot a problems so I reflashed T-moible 2.26, the XDA ver5 and 5.1 updates all over agian an added nothing new, but still having problems with nexpected reboots and this lost connection problem.
Thanks

Hi,
For last 2 days im unable to update weather on touchFlo screen.
I got message "There was a connection error while attempting to download weather data. retry? Yes/No"
Both internet and mail works fine, so i dont know what to do.
Any ideas?
Im on T-mobile UK.
Got the same problem and I am on the other end of Europe, so I guess their servers are down?

me too its happened about 2 days ago i thought it's because my wifi or my 3G connection lost but it wasnt
Im on Orange...
Just found this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=411898
I have the same problem starting today, yesterday it happened occasionally.
tried alredy to disable proxy, connect directly through WiFi, and still same problem.
Must be accuweather server then.
Strange, cause their site wirks fine.
Have been having problems for the last couple of days, does look like a server issue
I figured it was a server issue too but this fix worked for me.

Same for me
I was freaking out as I have just got my Touch Pro and I though I had broken it somehow? Have Hard Reset it 3 times but still the weather update keeps reporting a connection error. What to do? I am in New Zealand and have tried 3G & WiFi and it mkes no difference! I have emailed HTC Support about the issue but is there any way to confirm if it is AccuWeather's problem? Hope this can be resolved as I don't want to start tinkering with the ROM while it is still so new and under warantee. Helpful advice appreciated
Couldn't get the editor to work, something about a newer net needed? Whatever that is??? It wouldn't run.

Try the fix right above your post. I went through all the same things you did to try to fix it and just following those steps worked. (Don't ask me why!)
Good luck!

Maybe it woud for me to if I could get the editor to run. Where do I get this NET thing it says it needs?
Working!!!
Hello World it seems that the even though the Editor won't actually run it does something that enables the weather updates to run again. Strange? What does it do that fixes it???
Thanks

Frank-
In case it stops working again or you ever need to install another program that requires the latest .NET CF, you can download it here:
http://www.4shared.com/file/37978142/c1e9d030/Microsoft_NET_CF_35.html
Download net 3.5 and weather editor 1.2 and I get an error: fire write protection of database could't removed. What is this??
Other thread about the same topic...
I also have the issue that the editor can't read something, please keep the discussion at one thread, thanks.

Great thanks, done all that and we are up and running again. Thanks everyone for your help.
dont know if its just accuweather server been fixed, or what, but everything works fine again. All i did was installing .Net 3.5 from: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...49-3C6B-42F1-9FD9-0041345B3385&displaylang=en
And after soft reset everything is back to normal.
