Samsung Epix GPS Hack


I have been using the Samsung Epix and as many know the GPS will not work out of the box with any other GPS software other than Navigator. Well after a few little tweaks I was able to figure out what you need to do to get other GPS programs to work..

Get GPS to work GPS out of the box uses some funky port that AT&T uses for their Navigator program. I couldn't get any other program to pick up on my GPS. But luckily the fix is simple. Start > Settings > Sytem Tab > GPS Settings: Programs Tab: GPS Program Port = COM1 Hardware Tab: GPS Hardware Port = COM9;baud=4800

I tried this with my TOMTOM and it still did not reconize the GPS - any thoughts? The program was set to internal GPS.

Thanks
