Re: Open GPS Failed

I'm a bit confused. I also have a Touch Diamond and keep getting the Open GPS Failed message.
Does this mean I need to install a 3rd party bit of software in order to get it to work? How have other people managed to get this to work?

I've tried contacting Sentient via the feedback form but have not received any response from them.

I feel like I've just paid £24 for nothing.

Open GPS Failed

SebulbaSe — Sat, 16 Aug 2008 17:29:04 GMT

Hi

Just want to say that i have the same problem on 2 different HTC Diamonds.

And with TomTom or other gps software running then it works.

Looking forward to a fix to solve the problem.

I have followed this advice and checked the password is the same as on my Sportsdo web portal login but it still gives the same error "Invalid username/password".

How can I check or change the username part of this?

Thanks

There is a beta version available from betaota.sportsdo.net that has the required fix in it, and the fix will be incorporated in the next proper release, but that is a little way off yet.

My SE C702 have exactly the same problem. What's the solution to the problem?

...scratch that... I just discovered that while I purchased the software, without coughing up an addtional $10 per month, the web site here that it hooks up with (and I thought it was part of) is limited to a total of 10 activities. That's a pretty hefty annual chunk of money for what it is, especially given the cost of the software alone. It should come wtih a year of the website.

I'm using WM6 on a HTC Touch Cruise.

Your 600 calorie count is probably due to one of the many frustrations in use SportsDo: the count zero's out during an activity for no apparent reason and 'starts over'. If you're lucky though, the activity will at least complete without SportDo software causing the device to spontaneously reboot, wiping out the mileage and calorie count, leaving just a 'shell' of the activity.

I think SportsDo is a great idea -- the implementation just isn't quite there yet; would be great if Microsoft or someone would do something similar.

For now, I've taken to using a WM product called Tracky Pro (http://www.trackthisout.com) and uploading the GPX files to SportsDo. While I would much rather use the SportsDo software, I've given up. Rarely made it through an activity without it causing a reboot.

How are calorie counts calculated?

I'm using WM6 on a Samsung SCH-i760.

Calorie counts are .. interesting. The same 17.5-mile ride (back and forth to work for 185-pound male) has yielded 2200 and 600 calories in past weeks. The good news: the last two rides dare in the 1100-1200 range, which seems closer to the mark.

Thanks.

Clone Manual Activities

I do a daily cross-trainer workout that I'd like to include in my activity blog. However, it's a bit of a nuisance to input the same data day after day.

Would be handy to be able to create a template activity that I could just paste into the activity blog .. think of it as cut-and-paste bragging rights ;)

Thanks.
