hat666: why do you open up a topic that's been closed for 3.5 months already?

As to your problem, read the stickies (http://www.dcemu.co.uk/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=170).

Sorry guys, where could i get uk map with all addresses data? Last time I remember I was able to make maps but I couldnt get the data file with addresses. Is it still the same or the improoved MAP THIS map creator?

as we know, this spring will be premiere of the go!explore - sony gps system for psp. How gonna look your project then? i hope you will not drop it. i think map this is one of the best homebrew! u r great! i am using holux gps, cable from china and nokia E50 with tomtom map. so when i am driving a car, i have big psp screen on the front window and phone in the pocket - so i can recalculate routes from any place without pc and i have talking gps i hope, one day will be same option in mapthis

the project is not abandoned... just slowed down a bit - we all need to take a break sometimes and do other things for a change..

well.....

I've read all these reports of easy fixes people do and get their gps working and i gotta say it makes me hurt.
I've tried everything. I'm running 3.90 m33-3 on a ta-82/86 mobo with 5.2 mapthis but i dont think mapthis is the problem. Im using the psp 290 gps unit and in mapthis and the psp-290 test it confirms its working. But for some reason, in the gps test program, i always get this

GPS state = 3 location: 0

which means 'm not locking on anything.

I'v tried idstorage fix which cleaned/patched my keys
I've tried keycleaner which fixed even more keys and asked if i wanted to unpatch a key 5. But it says if i unpatch it i'll brick my psp.

Iv tried using usbhostfs but it just says i've already used it and quits out.

Iv tried using different usbgps.prx and usbacc.prx files to no avail

but for some reason the wiki page say to put them in ms:0/kn folder which i dont have. I only have a kd.
But is'nt that irrelavant because mapthis 5.2 doesnt need them

please help

First, don't double post.

Have you tried using the PSP-290 on another PSP? If it fails to work there also, the GPS dongle itself may be broken. If it does work there, the problem most likely lies with your PSP.

In Map This!, does it say GPS STATE: ON? And is the GMT time it gives correct?

(Oh, and as always, just stand out in the open for a few minutes to see if it really doesn't work.)
