Well, Sean is sick in bed from taking Malaria shots since he is traveling to Ghana to speak. I have been Busy at the wharehouse and Wolfgang is aware of your issue and we have folks on it trying to duplicate the issue and figure it out. Sean, for example, has had no issues in TPE, west coast USA, east coast USA, and columbia with his phone. So, after we duplicate the problem then we can figure the cause. Software, component failure, test leakage.
On the inside of your phone there is a datecode, serial number etc. Email that to wolfgang Steve -----Original Message----- From: Marcus Bauer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 07, 2008 10:05 AM To: List for Openmoko community discussion Cc: Sean Moss-Pultz; Wolfgang Spraul; steve Subject: Re: GPS On Mon, 2008-07-07 at 18:24 +0200, Mathias Ballner wrote: > hi all, > today i tried to get the gps running, but i didn't get a gps fix i > tested it with tangogps (nice tool!) and openmoko-agpsui the only > output i got was: > http://scap.linuxtogo.org/files/6d11990f0c82d92f0252742d7ef44950.png > what do i do wrong? > mathias It seems nobody gets a quick fix. Times range from 10 to 60 minutes if any fix at all. There is a similar thread running on the developer list but no answers from Openmoko. Normal for a cold start would be 45secs-2min and with agps ~15secs. This is industry standard and stated on the specs page of u-blox. The GTA01 (Neo 1973) gets a fix in one minute after a cold start. All modern chips (and the u-blox is a modern chip) can get a fix without downloading the full almanac (which takes 12.5 minutes). The ephemeris is sufficient and comes in 30secs. I think this is an important issue and hope that Sean or Wolfgang can give answers. I CC'd Steve too, because this equally effects the VAR markets. If they don't answer it is probably the best to send your FR back before the warrenty expires and buy a new FR once this issue is resolved.
