"ein Go x20/x30/7000 (ohne Hardwaredefekt) hat kein Satelliten-Erkennungs-Problem."

Ein paar Kunden mit x20, bzw. x30 haben sich bei mir beschwert, weil sie stundenlang keine Satelliten mehr empfangen konnten. Ich habe ihnen die "glgps"-Datei ersetzt und QuickGPSfix mit "QuickGPSfix_SiRFStarIII.exe" aktualisiert. Seitdem ist bei ihnen alles wieder in Ordnung. Es war aber erst am letzten Wochenende, d. h. kaum vor 5 Tagen. Ich bin gespannt, wie es nach einer Woche aussieht. Ich halte Sie auf dem laufenden...


"Der kann das mit cbee.cbee im ephem-Ordner viel besser als du mit irgendwelchen Progrämmchen "

Zwar, aber nur mit gültigem Abo :-). Es war nicht besonders billig (49,95 € / Jahr) und TomTom bietet sowieso keine Live-Dienste mehr für diese Modelle an.

Translation:

"a Go x20/x30/7000 (without hardware defect) has no satellite detection problem."

A few x20 or x30 customers complained because they could not receive satellites for hours. I have replaced the "glgps" file and updated QuickGPSfix with "QuickGPSfix_SiRFStarIII.exe". Now everything is alright with them. But it was only on the last weekend, d. H. barely 5 days ago. I'm curious what it looks like after a week. I keep you informed...

"He can do that with cbee.cbee in the ephem folder much better than you with any program"

For sure, but only with a valid subscription :-). It was not cheap (49.95 € / year) and TomTom does not offer live services anymore for these models anyway.

Schade :-(! Es wäre schön gewesen, QuickGPSfix ohne Computer aktualisieren zu können.

Too bad :-(! It would have been nice to be able to update QuickGPSfix without a computer.

Yes, but it was not free (49.95 € / year), and TomTom no longer offers Live services for x40, x50 and 9000.

I apologize! I translated my last answer to Alfred_ML.

I think it's impossible without a subscription, because it is absolutely necessary to access the internet to update QuickGPSfix! None of my GO x40/x50 has ever updated the "lto.dat" file alone, even with the "cbee.cbee" file in the "ephem" folder.

The 9.702 provides a feature "worksmart" which in general uses the same connection like these old devices I was talking about. Beside this it supports the BT-phone features like making phone-calls or accept them.

So I agree with you. If this tool had worked in earlier times, it should do now on this NC.

What we need is a phone with BT and internet-connection.
This MUST be a mobile network, no WLAN.
On the phone there must be a feature enabled "hotspot over bluetooth".
Activate pairing on the phone.

Try to connect through the bluetooth settings on the TT.
First it will pair and check the phonestaff.
At the end or by using the "worksmart" icon it will check the ability of dataconnection.
I cant check it here, because my phone does not provide internetaccess through mobile.

We dont need a supscription to download ephem over internet.

BUT, if really everything works, I dont beleave this will solve your major problem.

From my point of view there is no problem with satellites on NC 9.702.
Ephem only helps, if you dont use your TT for some time and then start it the first time.
Without ephem it would need some minutes longer to get position.

In this case it would help to set your home-position to the actual position.
This is the position you see on the screen without GPS-fix and my feeling ist that this is the startposition for searching satellites.
