GPS Instructions w/ new rom for TomTom and LiveSearch
 

Everybody has been stating that they got GPS to work, but only some left instructions. I hope this helps. Thanks to those that gave me advice on how to get this working.

Make sure unter "External GPS" that the "GPS Program port:" has "COM4" selected. Leave "Hardware" alone which is the next tab over.

Then under "Access" make sure "Manage GPS automatically" is checked

Live Search for some reason wouldnt work until I got in my car and drove away from my house. Right when I drove away, the GPS kicked in, and worked as if I had an external GPS. My settings for Live Search are "GPS COM4".

In order for TomTom to work, you first have to get your GPS location in Live Search, then launch TomTom, and then TomTom will work fine as if you had an external GPS.

My TomTom settings are "NMEA GPS receiver" then "com 4" then baud is "9600".

These are the steps i took to get GPS working with the new ROM update using the internal GPS. Havent been able to test the Rev A yet. But it seems everybody is stating that is working fine, but only some were able to get GPS working.

Hopefully this will help you all to get GPS working with the new ROM. W/o me doing these steps, I wasnt able to get GPS working. Also please note that I had to leave my house for it to work. With my Bluetooth GPS receiver I could get a location in live search or Tomtom w/o leaving the house. But for the internal GPS, i had to leave the house.

but this has to be with the new rom or can yu do it with 2.17 htc original???

Had to be with the new rom

o0o damn i rather wait 4da official new one to come i dont like messing with custom or cooked roms

I had issues to get it up and running at first, all the settings were correct but could not find any satelites in google maps. brought up google maps turned on use gps then brought up the phone dialed ##debug# and checked gps, it filled in. Exited out of debug and the phone and google maps had four satelites listed.

Works on COM4 with Iguideance as well!

i have tomtom 6 and i cant get it to connect, also where can i find a USA map all the maps i have are European
