Free GPS Software and source code

[scottpj]

Attached to the bottom of the this page.
There are two attachments available for download which will enable the GPS to work on a Mogul. It may work for other HTC phones, but it will require Window Mobile 6 to be installed.
The MyGPS.CAB is an auto install which will need to be copied to the phone. Once copied, use the file explorer to activate the install.
Once it is install, it will have a menu popup on the lower right hand side.
Pressing the "Start GPS" on the menu will cause you to see the following:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
QualComm GpsOne Card: version 0.0
SeviceState: On
DeviceState: On
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once the Sats are found, the display will add additional lines:
This will take about a minute.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Flags: 3FF5F
Latitude (DD): XX.XXXXXXX
Longitude (DD): XX.XXXXXXX
Above Sea Level: XXX.XXXXXXXX
Satellite Count: X/XX (X)
Heading: XXX.X: AA:
Speed: XX.X => will show 0 at rest
Time: MM/DD/YY HH:MM:SS AM/PM
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Note: A "X" is number digit and a "A" is ASCII character
I hope to add storage of current location to the Storage card either automatically using a fixed time period of a user’s choice or to add a press of a button to force the save feature. Could be used for a rough site layout capture, travel path capture, Truck logging (speed and direction are present).

This has the attached source code and executable for a Mogul running Window Mobile 6 operating System. See above message about software.

why are you posting this when the mogul already has gps enabled with the new roms? unless i missed something and this is some sort of improvement?

i dont understand exactly what this is for so dont take any offense.

This is a program which will access and display the value found in the GPS chip. It does not require a fee to access the chip and can be use for GEO Caching, at least (in the required format DD, not DDMMSS format). Also, since I posted the source, you can update and make it better than what I did.
In other words, even though the GPS is enabled, how do you display the values found inside the chip with out a program.
