Re: 12/25/08 Verizon GPS Fix v2.0
Maybe I spoke prematurely. I assumed the GPS fix is working but now I question the assumption. I installed the HTC GPS Tool. I assume I need to have everything setup in this tool for the GPS to function, am I correct?
Here's what I do. In the tool, using "FUNCTION" I select Mode="Cold Start", CHIP="Q7500", SET Mode="Cold Start".
Com Port is Com4, Baud Rate is 4800
Then I click "Open Port" and watch a scroll of data commence in the large text box. I assumed this meant that the GPS was now functioning.
However, I notice in this screen that "Satellite Used" remains at Zero as well as "Satellite Fixed".
Then I open Google Maps , it's manually configured for Com4 @ 4800 Baud. When I select "Use GPS" I get a upper screen bar "Seeking GPS Satellites" and then an ultimate failure message "cannot find Satellite.
Am I doing anything wrong?
