my verizon HTC diamond couldnot find satellite, do I have to unl

Thanks 小分隊員, I installed garmin gps software on my HTC diamond for Verizon.  After garmin installation,  it couldn't find satellite.   The gps is on port com4 at baud 4800.  I tried htc quickGPS. QuickGPS ran, and downloaded 100% -- I assume it is successful.  Garmin still keeps acquring satellite.   Then I installed gpsViewer, still it couldn't find satellite either. From the screen of gspviewer, i can see data keeps sending to query com4, but no satellite is found.

So my fundmental question is, do I have to unlock the phone from verizon to make GPS work?

Thanks

Then change the default port from 1 to 4 in Garmin settings -fitwxc- 給 fitwxc 發送悄悄話 fitwxc 的博客首頁 (0 bytes) () 10/08/2010 postreply 14:04:55

I did that -- Use Serial GPS, COM4:COM4, it still says GPS is O -telestan- 給 telestan 發送悄悄話 (0 bytes) () 10/08/2010 postreply 14:19:51

Then try Tomtom or iGo, they are way better than Garmin anyway -fitwxc- 給 fitwxc 發送悄悄話 fitwxc 的博客首頁 (0 bytes) () 10/08/2010 postreply 15:32:53

Tomtom works! Although it does not have TTS, I am still happy. -telestan- 給 telestan 發送悄悄話 (0 bytes) () 10/08/2010 postreply 17:07:15
