Try this reg edits. This is what works well for me with Tom Tom 7.

Then edit registry
Under: HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver\
Drivers\GpsOneDevice\PollInterval -> 100 (default is 1000)
Drivers\InputBufferSize -> 1024 (default is 4096)
Drivers\OutputBufferSize -> 1024 (default is 4096)
Drivers\SleepOnNoData -> 100 (default is 1000)
Multiplexer\MaxBufferSize -> 1024 (by default not present, you have to create it)

thanks if you have a cab? for this that would be great but as said i do not do nor wish to since i do not know how to do those edits but thanks.

Re: TomTom 7 lag best way to get rid of the lag?
 

I don't have a cab but it's easy to make this changes. All you have to do is use a reg edit app. I use the Resco one. Then all you are doing is making the chages to the existing DWords. Then wait a little bit and soft reset. Don't be scared to learn something new.

How much lag did you see? With GPSGate on, I see zero to 1 sec lag time. Good enough for me.

Re: TomTom 7 lag best way to get rid of the lag?
 

Multiplexer\MaxBufferSize -> 1024 (by default not present, you have to create it)

I done all the rest but how the heck do i do this? i have no clue where it is or what to do any help?

Re: TomTom 7 lag best way to get rid of the lag?
 

I am not buying the code i spent too much money now and i can't find a key anywhere

Re: TomTom 7 lag best way to get rid of the lag?
 

You have to create a new DWord.

Also, you might want to start using the "Thanks" button for all the people that help you.

Re: TomTom 7 lag best way to get rid of the lag?
 

Ok and i went to new and do i make the name? and then put a value in?

Re: TomTom 7 lag best way to get rid of the lag?
 

I hit the thanks button for you already

Re: TomTom 7 lag best way to get rid of the lag?
 

Multiplexer\MaxBufferSize -> do i make that a d word and then put the value in?

Re: TomTom 7 lag best way to get rid of the lag?
 

Yes, once you make a new DWord, you will name it MaxBufferSize and set the value to 1024.

Re: TomTom 7 lag best way to get rid of the lag?
 

Ok we shall see :) i did all you said thanks for the walk threw and yes i did also hit the thanks button

Re: TomTom 7 lag best way to get rid of the lag?

Re: TomTom 7 lag best way to get rid of the lag?

Re: TomTom 7 lag best way to get rid of the lag?

Re: TomTom 7 lag best way to get rid of the lag?

Re: TomTom 7 lag best way to get rid of the lag?
 

anybody has a link to download the gpsgate trial?
is this a navigation program or is an application to use it with garmin or tom tom at the same time?

Re: TomTom 7 lag best way to get rid of the lag?
 

I remember having issues with the htc touch pro (original) and sprint came out with an update that included a new ppst(pri update) and the problems went away. I can't even tell the current pri on my htc touch pro 2. It used to be under Device Info, now it has been replaced by HTC's version.

Re: TomTom 7 lag best way to get rid of the lag?
 

can i use the settings with the gpsgate program

Re: TomTom 7 lag best way to get rid of the lag?
 

GPSgate costs money after the free trail.I looked the web for someone posting a crack for it but could not find one.But really is useless without it.Plus the price they want to me is not worth the money.

Re: TomTom 7 lag best way to get rid of the lag?
 

Well i went for a ride and those edits did not help a bit nada so still looking for something to fix this darn lag and something i do not have pay money for gpsgate is ok but not paying the $'s for it.

Re: TomTom 7 lag best way to get rid of the lag?
 

baf (baffles?) has a program somewhere on here that does the same thing and is free, you can even have it automatically start tomtom...

Re: TomTom 7 lag best way to get rid of the lag?
 

Really sad to have to put up with this lag.Wish sprint would release a update.But again with all the stuff we got we can't find anything to get rid of this lag lol.

Re: TomTom 7 lag best way to get rid of the lag?
 

TomTom got serious lag but others like igo8 and garmin have little to no lag.

So it maybe software manuf. problem?

Re: TomTom 7 lag best way to get rid of the lag?
 

Guess ill just put up with the lag when i got on my trip to NY from florida as i do not see a way to fix it on any site.
