QUOTE(RME-RAnger @ Jan 1 2009, 10:13 PM) normally gps is applicable for outdoor only (open air), to enhance ur gps, try update ur "quickGPS" regulary, and option is install a program call advance configuration tools (in the program enable the a-gps function), hope it helps.. happy new yr install wat software? mind sharing the link...?QUOTE(mengsuan @ Jan 1 2009, 10:19 PM) Internal GPS are too weak to work indoors. Go outside. aih, waited but not a bar in the gps info wo...To obtain GPS fix, you need minutes, sometimes a lot of minutes. It's not as fast as sending a text message. Leave the PDA outside for about 10 minutes, then come back. is tat normal? I mean, I used gps b4 in a ppc, and surely at least there will be some bars there, eventhough no fix yet. but this wan nth, and i wait there for 10 minutes edi... nvm, i try again.. or else phucking go rma, waste my time.. damn dulan... |

QUOTE(mengsuan @ Jan 2 2009, 12:32 PM) Garmin XT does not show any bar until you get GPS lock. Make sure you selected Serial GPS--> COM 4. Then wait as long as the PDA needs. which version u using ? mine is 5.00.20w, and it shows bars eventhough not yet get GPS lock.To change the time format, change your regional settings to US. Different country have different format and it cannot be altered. Btw, please use A-GPS with caution. If you notice garmin losing satellite reception every few seconds, that simply means A-GPS doesn't work for your system configuration. this is with my d810. I installed the same version, same map in both my d810 and diamond. d810 getting bars and could lock in less than 1 minute if outdoors. diamond, no response at all, no matter indoor outdoor. no bars no nothing. any experts mind showing me the rite way of doing it? is it possible I did anything wrong during my installation? but I tried it wif mapking, no response also...  |
