First the usual "appologies" that seem to be "a must" in this forum.
1.) Reason for not posting in the V4 thread is simply because that thread is too large, too full of non-subject replies.
2.) I have read the 2:nd FAQ post, does not even mention the problem with the GPS
3.) I have read the wiki
4.) I have searched the forum (and it does not even find anything because GPS has too few letters)
5.) I have browsed through 50 pages in the V4 thread and did not find an answer (and got tired reading ).
So, my problem:
GPS does not work after I installed the V4 rom. It did work in V3.
I have tried quick GPS, I also started GPS-tool (which did not get a fix either or find any satellites).
The orange blinking LED does not start when using GPS tool (it starts in miomap however).
And googlemaps does not get a fix (or find any satellites) either.
My radio is 12.32 , if that has anything to do with GPS?! I have sim-unlocked the phone. I live in Sweden.
I read a few posts where people seem to have a problem with their GPS after changing radio, even when they revert back to their original radio. During the sim-unlocking process the radio is temporarily changed, maybe that is the source of the problem?

What is the deal with everyone starting new threads instead of posting in the thread where it needs to be.
MY gps works just fine. 1.27.12.11 radio with dutty v4 rom.

I like it.. you apologised for not following the rules.. then didnt follow them. excellent.
The Dutty V4 thread is the one most likely to be of use.. I know its full of people not posting in the right place.. but adding to that isn't going to help.
As to the problem.. People keep reporting GPS issues with the Radio ROM's... Now It may be me but the radio rom shouldnt have anything to do with the GPS... unless im mistaken its a seperate chip and will have a seperate flash (which you probably cant modify)
What COM port are you trying to use? What are your External GPS settings set too in the control panel?
I got no problems with new threads on new issues. 150+ pages is just useless.
I haven't seen the GPS problem you talk about. Might try re-flashing your radio version, or a different version.
No neither do I.. But this isn't a new issue..
Loads of people are saying they have GPS issues after flashing..
At least a few of them I've seen are actually caused by people not understanding what they are on about (A few of the people seem to be confused by the fact the GPS may be on a different COM port after the flash for example)
the others all seem to follow the logic that changing the radio may help.. so trying that would be a good place to start (flashing back to the radio the device e shipped with for example and seeing if the GPS now works int he new Os with the old radio?)
I've never had a GPS problem.. But have seen all these fixes so many times whilst reading other threads I can regurgitate them, and thats without even searching for this issue.

"Duttys DualTouch v4 RTM Release [ FAQ added in Post 2]" thread on 158 page
Go through the setup again.... If need be try a hard reset then Run GPSTest
Ensure you are using a radio compatible with Dutty's ROM. Try one or all of
these first, then report back what you find if it doesn't come back.
You shouldn't have to duck when you poke your head into the forum. Just be thankful it's not a contact sport yet. Just because you're using one ROM or another avoid attributing the problems/issues with that persons ROM. There are so many things that can create problems and user error is the biggest culpret.
Who can blame you for not putting this under the ROM release thread? It's too broad, likely not applicable, and everyone and his uncle has posted something there.
Cheers.
Ok thanks for the answers. Somehow the GPS just started working again, but I will never know why I started google maps, mio maps, tomtom a few times, and suddenly after 2 days the gps started working I was just about changing rom and radio, but now it seems as if I will stick to V4 a couple of days
thanks!
this version works ok with nearly all apps and cooked apps the only problem is the touchflo, the touch flo works but its not 100%
hello,
unfortunately i cannot turn on the bluetooth from comm manager, it turns on and after 1 second is off again.
any solution for this problem?
thanks.
I have had this problem before and unfortunately am having it again. Only solution I have ever found for this is a hard reset and then reinstalling all your apps. If you try to restore from a backup from Sprite Backup, for instance, the problem remains. This would lead me to believe that it's a setting or a registry issue somewhere but I haven't been able to locate exactly what would be causing it and don't know enough about programming in WM to write something to figure it out.
Not a great answer but there it is.

Hi, I have a Uk version of the touch cruise and I have the same problem. I just did a hard reset but the problem remains. Turning bluetooth on is impossible. It just try's to turn it on and shuts it off immediately.
Maybe it has something to do with GPRS? I am always connected to the internet. I tried to disconnect but then bluetooth still doesn't work. Can anyone help? Thnx!
No one has a clue?
I had this prob with bluetooth and wifi following the use of wmwifirouter- after hard reset and no wmwifi all goes well...
On a French SFR rom
any other idea?
Same problem... beginning to wish I'd gone all Apple and bought an iPhone. Anyway.... To trun it on, I had to go to Comm Manager>Settings>Bluetooth>Mode>Turn on Bluetooth. That worked despite the Comm Manager still showing Bluetooth as "off".
It only connects 1/2 the time to my headset or handsfree in the car
Otherwise, the phone crashes only once a day! Great! Thanks!
ok, great to see more people having the same problem but i hope that someone has a sollution...
When I try to turn bluetooth on in the communications settings i get a message saying there is a hardware error! :S
Ohw btw, I'm not using any router programs or other and my WIFI works fine.
has anybody of you having this problem tried to change to another rom?
if yes? did this worked?
any news on this?
No news, I don't want to try for a different rom because i don't think it will change anything. It just seems like its a faulty device which is a real shame. I've already contacted the place where i bought it and see if i can get a new one.
I also have problems with my microphone during calls, photo camera does often not work and the touchpad reacts very slowly to my touches. Very annoying!!!!
Yup, am returning mine to HTC aswell. Not even sure I want it back. WiFi stopped working too, and then it stopped receiving text messages, and everyone said they couldn't hear me when I called them. Great
Some of you guys got a bad device, there are thousands out there working properly.
If some of you guys flashed a newer Radio, the one form the test-ROM, then this is your problem.
And some of you guys have a quite gay branded ROM (slow responsiveness of touchpad). The original HTC ROM on the FTP and even more so a cooked ROM would solve alot of your problems. But be aware, flashing without having a backup ready is going to void your warranty if you want to exchange it having a custom/non-original ROM on the device.
What's up Schaggo
I am experiencing the same problem these gentlemen are mentioning and my ROM is not gay or lesbian. It is the original one.
TC is my 7th HTC device and I can see the quality of the ROMs decreasing a lot on every new device. I feel like HTC needs a real competitor to move up its arse quicker.
All I can say is that it really annoys me to hard reset this [email protected] everytime I "accidentally" use a native feature called Flight Mode. By bluetooth seems to fly away and never get back.
Lots of time the GPRS settings have to be reconfigured too. Some people I know have problems with GMail IMAP4 accounts when sending messages after some time. I never had this problem on my Kaiser neither on my Niki.
The lack of a video driver really is an egg on our faces, because I can't believe my ole Qtek 9100 responds quicker than these "all the bells and whistles" Qualcomm 7200 super-duper geared up devices.
So, if you feel like not contributing, please do not mess around.

Click to expand...

Hi
I've tried many custom rom and the PB continue. "PB with the hardware oh BT".
Hard reset doent change anything.
my initial rom (SFR France) was working
custom rom (blackwidow + Bepe 058) are buging...
nedd some help !
Thanks alot for that input feaps. I guess I have to clarify a little bit.
My answer was supposed to be pointing in different directions. The first and general information I tried to contribute was, that it is not a common Polaris problem to have a broken Bluetooth unit. Which doesn't help at all to ppl affected, but it should tell them, that they probably got a bad device and should exchange it first before blameing htc in general and shouting for an iPhone.
It only was partially directed at specific persons. At madinga for example: did you try hardresetting your device? It could be a corruption in your system which causes all those problems. I doubt it though, if you suffer the loss of so many functions at the same time I suspect the mainboard to be broken. But nonetheless, hardreset it, see if its working, BEFORE you put your backup back on the device again since that could restore the corruption. If it doesnt work, exchange your unit, I hope you'll get a working one back.
My second line was directed at all people which have overwritten their original Radio with the 1.58.25.14 originating from the HTC Test ROM which can be found on the ftp server. The Bluetooth part of that Radio is flawed and leads to the problems described in this thread. I quite nicely pointed that out and told people where to have a look before shouting around. I do know that because I tried it myself and couldnt get my Bluetooth devices working. Once I flashed the original Radio back, my BT problems were gone.
And my third line - in which I may chose the wrong words, 'gay' for example - holds information targeted at people with for example the branded french SFR ROM or the original HTC french ROM. The SFR ROM is just horribly branded and if you go through the threads here you'll find people complaining about problems which then turn out to be related to the ROM. The french HTC ROM is flawed as well, it has severe problems with the volume control. I don't exactly remember what it was, but it's a flawed ROM, thats for sure. The German o2 ROM isnt flawless either, I know that because I originally had that ROM. Once I flashed my orbit 2 with the original HTC WWE ROM, I found it to be working alot better and smoother than with the o2 ROM originally provided. And this is where my last line comes into play: if you suffer problems related to your currently flashed ROM, they could be diminished by flashing an alternative ROM. But if your device is broken, and I personally and strongly believe that everybody fooling around in this forum should be intelligent enough and able to determine the sense of my words, eg. if he/she suffers a ROM problem or if the device just simply is dead and take appropriate actions.
And now to your contribution feaps. I feel personally attacked by your words. Thats why I defended my words in all the paragraphs above. Trust me, I've had enough mobile devices of all sorts to know what it means to get a not working once. Its frustrating and makes you want to throw it out of the window. And being able to see the quality decrease over time is just another drop on a hot stone. I agree. But be honest, if your BT unit works and stopps working once you engage a software based function, the problem is software related, dont you think? As for the GPRS settings, I cant tell. Since I use a free ROM which has the wizard built in (o2 removed it from their ROM) I didnt switch my SIM and the configuration worked, automatically and every single time. And I do use IMAP as well on my personal E-Mail account. Until now I didnt run across any problems, so I cant give you any feedback on that either.
So rethink again if I mess around or not or if I actually try to contribute and help the freshmen, coming into this forum and flashing whatever they find and breaking their devices. And recommending to flash the original HTC ROM, which should be/is the base for everything floating around, breaking your devices, is a serious input to everybody.
Edit: I forgot to add, pointed at nooms, there are cooked ROMs out there which stupidly have the new, flawed Radio baked in. Which Radio are you on? Try Start > Settings > Tab System > Device Information > Tab Version. Are you inadvertedly still on Radio 1.58.25.14 or back to (original) 1.58.21.23?
Hi everyone,
I agree with Schaggo completely. Most of the time problems have something to do with the software on the device. But I a not a tweaker like most of you guys, i've just bought my first (and hopefully not last) HTC phone. If i have problems of some kind, all i can do is reset the thing. A hard reset if necessary. I've done that many times. I can't change the software that comes standard and i don't think i should be the one who has to do that. Shouldnt HTC be doing that??
Anyway, Bluetooth keeps saying it has an hardware error. My radio version is a standard 1.58.21.23 but isnt finding any radiostations here in holland. Is it also broken? (sorry, i know, its a bit off topic)
You're right

Well put. Sorry for being rude, but I keep seeing people offending others day after day in this forum that used to be high level; but that doesn't mean I should act the same way.
I totally misread you and please accept my apologies.
My ROM is: 1.25.405.1 WWE
ROM Date: 12/11/07
Radio Version: 1.58.21.23
Protocol Version: 25.65.30.04H
One thing I could notice is that HTC has a flaw in the Flush HKCU to Permanent Memory While Shutting Down. Some keys are not written.
One example is the MagiCall (an app I use) registration key. The software maker had to write a flush app for doing that. Another example is the Start>Settings>System>Error reporting. No matter what you chose, after a power cycle or a soft reset, it always go back to "Disable...".
I have, also, already tested the device after the hard reset with no extra apps on it. Same lame behavior on BT...
So, SW QA levels are really dropping fast on new HTC models. That is pretty bad.
But anyway, I have an open case with HTC and if I find something contributive I will toch base with this thread.
Once again, sorry for being rude.
Best,
-Feaps

Then I guess you most probably got a bad unit. I guess the only solution at this time is an exchange.
The Radio-Firmware doesnt control the FM Radio btw The Radio-Firmware controls connections to the providers network, Wireless LAN and Bluetooth. But the FM Radio seems to be really bad in the Polaris, a lot of ppl I know complain about it.

No problem dude! There is no need for such an excessive appology. We are in a Forum and people have different oppinions and I think its totally acceptable to shout at each other. I just wanted to express that I'm not in accord regarding your judgement of my post. But thanks a lot, I seriously really appreciate it!
Yes, your device seems pretty standard to me and the scenario you described logically made me think of a software error. But this seems very unlikely now. I'm out of ideas for the moment then, I guess you have to return or exchange it too.
You are perfectly right about the dropping SW QA though. You can notice the registry glitch in other areas as well: backlight timer always reset to 30 sec, and there are more settings all over the place which don't get saved properly.
Again, no problem, everybody lets be cool
Bluetooth doesn't turn on
I have the same problem. Did anyone find a solution?
Also camera fails to initialize, touch pad is sometimes very slow for initial reaction. I have NO added programs beyond manafacturer originals and have tried a number of hard resets. Doesn't help.

Until about 3 days ago the sound on my phone worked perfectly, I have installed dutty's rom for about 1 month ago. On friday or something the sound simply dissapaired from the phone, and now I am only able to hear sounds through headphones/earplugs.
I have discovered that if i press the wheel on the side inwards, the sound returns as long as I am holding my finger there. What is causing this, and how can i possibly fix it?
I can't anylonger hear when the phone is ringing or anytthing
What radio are you using? Try updating your radio and reading the wiki.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=DuttySeriesKaiser
Problem: I have no sound.
Solution: You need to install a Windows Mobile 6.1 radio.

List of Kaiser radios:

From what I get he didn't flash anything new or change anything? I would try a hard reset and see if that fixes it if not flash a new ROM and Radio that is known to work and if that doesn't work trade it for a refurb from your provider.
I just tried both hard-reset and installing a new rom. It is not working as I have seen yet. I don't think its a hardware error because i have never lost the phone on ground yet, and it has never been in contact with water. I have also tried to reset the software, but nothing helps
I also can't remember installing a software or making any changes other then gps fix previously before the problems started occuring. Might it be possible that somehow a change or something somewhere have made my phone uncompitable with the current radios?
As I said previously, I get trough the headphone. the odd thing is that i get the sound on the phone back if i press the scrollwheel inward a bit hard. I think there is a registry error or something somewhere.
Though this is very annoying because I can't hear when the phone is ringing. The phone is too big to be in my pocket, and then i need to keep it in my jacket.
I would be grateful if anyone could provide a solution to this-
though i have read through the wiki, and I find it strange that a rom and radio that previously were working, suddenly stops working.

I fully agree. I have the same problem with all Dutty's ROM. Once I pair the bluetooth device the first time and have it connected, from then on the sound goes to bluetooth headset. Thus, I miss calls if I am not wearing my bluetooth headset 24/7.
When the bluetooth headset is disconnected, still there is no sound from the phone. Again, I miss calls.
The Radio which I use with Dutty's ROM is alway included in the ROM.
Maybe, some registry settings?
KOR!
But the strange thing here is that the sound worked perfectly until some days ago, but maybe i should try to just reset the whole phone back to its original setting, and then reinstall everything?
I think its just annoying that something like this occurs when the phone is working perfectly.
Though i don't need to wear headsets when i am talking in the phone; the inbound speakers are working as they are supposed to

flash it to original radio and rom, if it still does not work i think it's time to get that replaced. you may have to warranty it.

Just flash some other ROM and see what happens. Either flash the ROM from the link I have given or flash the original ROM.
Spend half an hour and you will know if it is software or hardware problem.
The easy way is to download the ROM from the link given above and let us know the results!

Same problem here. I noticed that it only happens after pairing it with bluetooth. I was on the ROM for a month before i pair it with bluetooth and then voila ... no sound.
However, my problem can be temporarily solve by resetting the phone. I was about to flash to the latest Dutty's and see how...

You should have made this post in the thread of the ROM you're using!
You don't have a signature so we don't know what the @#$% you have on your phone.
It's not like Dutty only has 1 ROM out.
There's several individuals who go thru Dutty's threads & help individuals like yourself.
So, if you post there....you will get the help you need.

Resetting the Rom
I have a phone where the hardware is malfunctioning, and i want to send the phone back for repair. The only problem is reinstalling the previous OS.
I had originally a norwegian OS (1.56.409.8711). I do have acess to another kaiser with the OS i want, so is there anyway to retrieve it from the phone?
Anyone have this issue or a fix? BT connects perfect, works, perfect, but the command to hang up on the BT device dosen't properly hang up, and the phones returns the #777 error.
It does answer from the BT device properly. It does with with my other cell phones.
TP2 VZW
I had the same problem with my Voyager Pro headset and found that if I hit the button once, wait a second and hit it a second time it hangs up. Maybe it will work for you.
I have the same issue.
Using Moto HT710 and VZW stock ROM
same issue in w/ 09 bmw nav/bt connection. I have to grab the phone and press the end button as it never hangs up.
cab might fix it
Over at PPCGeeks.com some have fixed the issue using the cab in this thread: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=90155
I am having the issue with my Ford Sync system. I will test the results of the cab this afternoon and post them. Hopefully this works because it is fairly annoying.
Here is the cab if anyone wants it.
Well it didnt work for my Verizon TP2 and the Ford Sync system, hopefully someone else has better luck with it.
This seems to work for me. It hangs up almost instantly now. Thanks for the find.
rsbrown69 I am glad I could help, could you post which version of the TP2 you have (verizon, tmobile, ATT). I just want to know if it worked on another verizon phone or not, if so I will hard reset and give it another shot.

I am using the mostly stock Sprint TP2. The only main modification I have done is the Touch Pro 2 cleanup http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=88640
Looking at the thread on PPCGeeks it looks like mostly sprint users having luck with the cab as well. Hopefully something will come along for the verizon version as well.
I have the Sprint version and have installed the cab. I do not see any improvement. I experience intermittent problems with or without the cab. It doesn't seem to make a difference. FWIW, I use the Jawbone Prime and Jawbone 2. Same with either.
Just out of curiosity did you do a soft reset after the install? I remember someone mentioning that in the original PPCGeek thread.
Yes, I did a soft reset. Actually, a soft reset with or without the cab seems to solve the problem....for a while. Then it shows up again. It is a bit strange.
doesnt work
I tried it on my Sprint TP2 and it does not work either. I installed it and did a soft reset and it still does not work for me either.
It would be the best thing that happened if it did work cause I use my BT all day and this sleep mode BT thing on the TP2 is cool for battery life but it sucks for using the BT feature which to me is more important than battery life and I have car chargers and usb chargers so I would rather have a working BT.
Does anyone have a cab or fix that will allow the BT to function like the old Touch Pro? That phone had a great BT even if the battery life was poor.
Thanks for the attempt to fix the issue but it is a no go here.
Does not work on stock VZW rom
Didn't work on my TP2 VZW either.
The one person that has responded that it worked had the cleanup cab installed. I am going to try a full reset and put only the cleanup cab and the bluetooth cab on and see if I can get results. Yeah this bug is that annoying to me. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=88640
Ok I did a hard reset, programmed the phone, installed the cleanup cab, installed the bluetooth cab, joined the phone to my ford sync system, made a call, and guess what... the phone hung up beautifully using my standard steering wheel control for sync. There must be something in that cleanup cab that is either A) the actual fix or B) a necessary piece of the fix. Sorry but I am not going to hard reset again to test it, mine is working so hopefully this info can help you guys as well. On a side note that cleanup cab is pretty nice but read the thread to make sure you want/need all that is included.

The cleanup cab alone hadn't fixed the problem for me so that is when I tried this threads fix. So far it works more often than not but it still does not hang up every once in a while. Must be a combination of things between the cleanup cab and this one but still not the correct fix, better but not enough.
Mine worked none of the time before, I basically had to wait for the caller to hang up or pull my phone out of my pocket and press end, so any improvement is huge for me. I am traveling this weekend and next week so hopefully I will have more info to report at least with my setup with Sync (never got into the earpieces, so not testing that).
First, I hope I am in the right spot. I am looking to get some help with a Bluetooth problem. I love the rom, but I am having some issues with bluetooth connectivity. I do not recall which radio I am using, nor do I know how to tell. The rooting process was somewhat of a blur.
Problem Details:
Bluetooth pairs with my car exactly as I would expect. Transfers the entire contact list to my car's internal phone book (after a security warning). This works perfectly (waaaaay better than my iPhone 3GS did). However, when I get in the car to leave, the bluetooth connection rarely happens. I get a connection failed. Sometimes I can manually re-connect, but lately I am having to reboot the phone. Once rebooted things usually work. I am also occasionally getting a Force Close on the "Phone" app when dialing from the car.
I first used attn1's hack kit and used the current CoreDroid which was 4.7. It had the same intermittent connect issues, so I updated to the latest version. This version actually seems like it could be a little worse.
Any suggestions? Please let me know what additional information you may need.
Thanks

Hi bfrd,
Welcome to XDA.
Unfortunately this is not the right spot to post your question. What you should have done is searched the CoreDroid thread for the issue you're having and see if there is any info about the problem you are having. Here is a link to the search results for "Bluetooth" in that thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=65753748
If you can't find what you're looking for via searching then post a question in that thread of the rom you are using. The Development sub-forum for any device is for Dev's to post or for the occasionally helpful instructional post. Otherwise you should post rom specific questions within the rom's thread and non rom questions in the General sub-forum.
Good luck with your problem and happy searching.
please post in the appropriate rom thread..thread closed.
