anybody use their 818pro with gps s/w or receiver?

using mine with cheapo BT gps receiver bought on ebay and iGo gps s/w with ireland maps. working brilliantly....

try to update your ROM, maybe problem. goto here and register, download and update rom, see if it helps

over clock your dopod818 pro here

me too chicken to oc to 240Mhz. forum above very good for all pda phones. my dopod now faster with memory tweak and oc!

i oc my dopod, maintain at 240mhz, because from the forums it says 240 most stable, i've tried higher mhz, but just maintain at 240.

obviously, oc will void your warranty, but u will see vast improvement!!

looks like the lcd screen problem. just send for warranty...

me using 2gig sd ok. dunno about 4g tho.

i think if u go to dopod asia website, register and u can dload rom upgrade & chinese s/w

proggie to oc your 818pro (or any other HTC/Qtek/i-mate/Dopod)...

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!

1. Unzip file.

2. Copy Omapclock and Omapclockplusv0.0.4.cab to your dopod, and open/run file and install.

3. Go to programs, find omapclockplus, set ur desired speed e.g. 240mhz, click register and then exit.

4. Do soft reset. That's it, you should feel the difference straight away! U can check speed using omapclock consule.



i'm staying at 240mhz, tried 252mhz, but a lot of forums say 240mhz is the most stable.

Attached File(s)
 Omapclock_and_Omapclockplusv0.0.4.zip ( 13.38k ) Number of downloads: 83

if it's .cab, transfer the file to your ppc, find it in file explorer and click it and it will install.

if it's exe, depends on the file, if you get 'not valid win32 app', copy file to your dopod and then run it.

some proggie has exe you can run in desktop pc and it will install cab file to your ppc.

no need to configure anything for free wifi hotspot, just turn on dopod's wifi and you will be automatically be connected.

sorry about ur 818pro boringpig....

congrats boringpig.

another proggie to clean up is sktools or pocket mechanic. pm can also defrag ur sd card

i use ptravel alarm. very handy, it looks like a regular lcd clock and u can program like 10 alarms all at different times/days.

it also has snooze function when the alarm rings. it also has this sleeping function, can sleep to the soothing sounds of water or ur mp3s!!! highly recommended *****

ya, all can use, even smartphone

btw, anybody using spb diary? been using it for quite a while now, very good today app.

1 problem though, i don't have any contacts in my phone, all in my sim, so somehow spb diary doesn't show sim contacts!! anyway around this?

aiyaaaa, i posted oc s/w in few pages back, go and dload from there

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, did u read the manual that came with your dopod???

i tried buying a 2.5mm converter to use normal 3.5mm headphones and got the same problem, only hear 1 side!! the head/jack of the converter is he same as the dopod headphone but still hear 1 side. i guess it's the phone then...

wow damn cun ur 818, is that a vista skin? the pictures are ok, but definitely could be better.

ram size is small, but u can unlock external rom and delete all the dopod proggies and save some space.

i uploaded an overclocking sw for our dopod, called omapclock, just search for it. my dopod feels smoother than default speed

i oc my dopod 818 using omapclock, i posted earlier in this thread. and no battery life is not that short compared to non oc. my dopod is running fine since i oc for about 4 months now, u can really feel the difference!!! try and locate my post on omapclock, dload it and try for urselves.
