I've just received my i780 about 2 weeks ago.

The phone came with the Garmin MobileXt software. the first time i installed the software i took a while for it to pick up the satellites. Then for about 3 days it work fine (Everytime used the software, it would find the satelittes within seconds). Since then i can't get it to work anymore. I've tried the following with no avail:

• Uninstalling the software completely (Uninstalling the app from the Remove programs wizard and by deleting the Garmin folder on the device storage)
• I've performed a Hard Reset and re-installed
• I've played around with the GPS settings by selecting a COM port instead of using GPS Intermediate driver

None of these have helped. Does anybody have any suggestions

I've had problems with this too. I reckon the phone doesn't charge over USB because the screen is always on (as mentioned in this post earlier) when connected to active sync. Thing is, if you turn the screen off (using power button) then the phone disconnects from active sync and stops charging! It's a no win situation.

I've got round this by installing a programme called ActiveSyncToggle on the PC. It allows you enable/disable active sync. With active sync disabled the phone will charge over USB because the screen dosn't come on when connected to the computer. Of course, the phone dons't sync, but for me that's not an issue as i prefer to sync over GPRS anyway....

Hopefully some of you guys will find this useful.

This is how to unlock the GPS:

to me it looks more like a defect in i780 firmware....

I have had to use GPS Gate as without it I cannot get Route 66 to work.

However, I am interested to know what your GPS settings are (i.e hardware/program port) and I'll try it on my device without starting GPS Gate.

Thanks Matt

Thanks for posting the manual! I read most of it on the plane back to the US and found a few helpful tips!

Unfortunately, I still haven't found out if the "Automatic" profile is possible, and GPS Test just sits there scanning COM ports, so I'm not sure what to do with that. I'll check some of the other posts here on getting it working.

The mains charger produces more power than USB. I tend to leave my phone plugged in to USB while at work - but I have an Athena not a BJ. USB does not charge my Athena up with the screen on but holds it steady - unless I'm using HSDPA in which case it will drain the battery even while plugged into USB. With the screen off USB will charge the phone but a lot slower than the mains charger.

It sounds like it's trying to charge but not getting enough power - is the screen on when you try or have you tried leaving it overnight with the screen off?

So ActiveSync is working? You can Sync OK just not charge?

I have the same problem with Garmin Mobile XT....it keeps poping up even though the SD have not been out of the phone after the first install from the card.

make the autorun.exe in \Windows read only......Autorun should stop working now.

Also, I would recommend writing your own customised Autorun as I have. Makes life so much simpler...

The Synch and Charge cable that comes with the Greek version of the phone does actually both synch AND charge. Tested it yesterday night, plugging the phone with 60% battery and removing it with the battery at 100% this morning. Maybe you are using a laptop PC that does supply enough juice to the USB ports?

So here is a question. Are there any s730 owners that DON'T have this memory issue?

Probably not appropriate for CardCache, but how about 'MoDaCo CardInbox'?

Here's those settings put into a CAB (it creates the folder on the Storage Card too).

Anybody tried to stream audio to Bluetooth headset. It worked perfectly for me on Qtek 8310 using Bluecast, however on Mteor Bluecast doesn't work. Interesting that when I push the button on headset sound is transferred to it for 2-3 seconds.

The ClearVue installer is faulty. It installs the shortcuts to the storage card also. But they work fine when copied to start menu in memory.
The bad news: The file extension links are also corrupted when installing to storage card. You need to set them maynually in registry or by file manager.

I informed westtek about the problem and they announced an update per mail.

How do you create a shortcut?

Yeah, mate, same here!
There is no shortcuts in Start Menu.
You can do your own shortcuts thou.

Jeg kan ikke få Opera Mini til at fungere.

Jeg har en Qtek 8020 med Telia som selskab.

Der er installeret GPRS til web, wap og MMS som fungerer glimrende.

Jeg har downloadet Opera Mini og installeret det uden problemer.

På trods af dette får jeg en fejlmeddelelse, når jeg går ind på en hjemmeside med Opera Mini.
A communication error occurred (3). Your browsing experience might be limited

Nogle der har oplevet det samme og eventuelt har løsningen?
