I just bought myself a HTC Touch Pro 2 and have found that the GPS cannot and will not get a steady and accurate current location, it scanned continuously trying to get a lock.

After a quick search online I found a fix.

you will need to install a few things to put the changes in.


Microsoft .NET Compact Framework 3.5 (Advanced Configuration Tool needs this)
Advanced Configuration Tool 3.3
Total Commander 7.04a

A. With Advanced config 3.2

1. Disable A-GPS
2. Disable GPS logging
3. logfile name must be empty
4. old logfile name must be empty
5. maximum size of logfile must be 0
6. delete the files :\windows\GPSLogFile.txt and \windows\GPSLogFileBack.txt

B. Then edit registry
Under: HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver\

1. Drivers\GpsOneDevice\PollInterval -> 100 (default is 1000)
2. Drivers\InputBufferSize -> 512 (default is 4096)
3. Drivers\OutputBufferSize -> 512 (default is 4096)
4. Drivers\SleepOnNoData -> 100 (default is 1000)

Earlier on, I added a post on the OPEN MOKO NEO mobile phone with the linux OS. Well now you can get the BACKTRACK linux distro for this little phone.

http://www.neopwn.com/

Running on a well balanced mix of open source hardware and network security testing software, NeoPwn has been a long awaited pocket penetration testing platform. This is the first ever network auditing distribution for a mobile phone.

The NeoPwn offers much in the way of automation with several dialogs, along with a well structured point and click navigation menu to ease the automation of device control, and many common attack vectors.

Garmin Nuvifone

an iphone alternative. because there are other options, this being only one of them. Samsung i900 is another and so is the awesome HTC Touch Diamond also not forgetting Sony's XPERIA X1
There is also the HTC Touch PRO which is much like the Touch Diamond but has a slide out keyboard and a microSD memory slot.

Also, unlike the Iphone, who fails in this area, this device will give you turn by turn directions with voice prompts.

For a good idea of two possible devices which could be a better alternative to iphone goto gsmarena.com where you will find a comparison between Samsung i900 and the HTC Touch Diamond

The OPEN MOKO Linux based mobile phone and portable device Operating System. The Neo FreeRunner phone (as shown) is the second hardware platform to take advantage of Openmoko OS.

I expect to see some good things come from the open moko os. If not then at least they are pointing in the right ( if not preferred) direction.

Note : The Dash express GPS Sat Nav runs on this OS

Openmoko website qoutes
"born as a Free Software project under GPL and LGPL license, is dedicated to delivering an open software stack on mobile platforms.

Openmoko shipped its first product, the Neo 1973 phone, on July 9 2007. Then the project turned into a start-up company with one aim: create great mobile products using the Openmoko stack: Open. Mobile. Free. Openmoko Inc. started selling the second phone, the Neo FreeRunner on 3rd of July, 2008"

www.gsmarena.com' review of the Modu

http://www.modumobile.com/

Developed by an Isreali group, this is the phone Id like to have.

Have known about this for a while now and this seems like the most impressive mobile phone CONCEPT out there. It actually holds the Guiness world Record for the smallest phone ever made. perfect!

The Modu mobile phone and a variety of "jackets" to pick from. What you actually do is put the Modu in the jacket you need and it changes its functionality head-to-toe.

The so called jackets are shells that can alter every single aspect of the phone. From display size and available memory to battery power and software functionality.

Confused? Don't be! With Modo should you need good music listening experience, all you need to do is put the Boom Box jacket on. It provides stereo speakers, nice intuitive audio player interface and so on. If you are in for a game - just change to the game jacket and you get a powerful large screen gaming console in your hands.
