Hi Boki_Srb and thank you for your fast reply.
I didn't say or expect that SYS.TXT had anything to do with it, but forum rules specify to give as many details as possible...
I have tried 2 or 3 other versions but I found that every one of them had other problems that were too annoying to fix or live with so I tried this one. It worked great for about 7 hours until I had to stop for gas. The only way to resume proper operation was to disconnect the power to the unit and leave it ON until battery was depleted. After that, powered it up, started and everything worked again, including GPS location. The unit is quite quick to lock on after power on, when working...
Nothing else worked, not reset button, not EXIT from IGo and then power off, not the GPS "reset" button from device system launcher.
During the time the GPS detects only the red satellites, the position calculated is random (different on every 10-15 second reset) and very far from my real location, despite the fact that the numbers on top the satellites graph bars show similar values to the green satellites (30+). Right now I am leaning towards a hardware or system problem since the same behavior is shown in system launcher GPS applet, without even loading IGO.
I will keep on trying different versions and see what happens... will keep you updated on the progress.
Meanwhile, if someone else has some idea, let me know. Ill be happy to experiment...
In case I will not find a working software or setting this year, I'll just return the device and get another one. Not that I expect any positive change in quality looking at the purchase price (less than 50 euro retail)![]()
