Won't play wav files which is what the nav software uses

by cnetmarc - 11/9/05 10:35 AM In reply to: The ipaq 6515 by Qosmio

Just installed the HP Nav software. None of the sounds play. I copied some of the sound files to my PC. They are wav files which do play on my pc. Copied a wav music file to the IPAQ. It would not play. I have reported the problem to HP and they have recreated it. This means you will not be able to get verbal navigation commands from the PDA untill HP releases a ROM fix. This does not impact MS Voice Command which works fine. Otherwise so far the phone/pda is incredible.

I works after all

What does it tell us about the complexity of this equipment when not only myself by a whole team of support staff at HP could not solve the problem. There reason the Nav software had no audio and the PDA would not play wave files was a Sound setup box that needed to be checked to enable sounds for programs. Interesting the audio worked for all other programs including Voice Command.

HP Ipaz 6515

I have had this device for 2 weeks and I must say it is the best phone I have every had. I would like to know if there is some free GPS Software thats out there for this device. It was shipped from Cingular without any and the software that I tried it seemed as if the GPS Would never pick up.

the best phone i have ever owned also.i took my cingular 6515 back the day after the post and picked it up online from convergent techonolgy unlocked and using it on the t-mobile network with perfection.the only proublem i have had has been with hp customer care teck support as fare as extended warrenty.on the third time they got me set in the 3 year next day exchange program that cost me 129.00 .not bad at all i feel.the item# for this warrenty is NBHU785E.it,s a great investment for sure.it,s just hard for hp to find it to sell to you

on the bottom right corner of you screen there is small gps icon.if that icon is of a grey color you must tap on it and redownload the gps quick connect software.when doing so you will notice that the icon turns blue.your good to go on gps connection but notice.the icon will start to fade grey in two days and you must redownloadn .when taping that icon you will see settings with the info on time left before next download.

by mehrtan - 3/12/06 5:55 PM In reply to: The ipaq 6515 by Qosmio

Since you have owned the IPAQ 6515 for~4mos...are you still happy?
I also found a sweet deal at Cingular yesterday, but have also found "mixed" reviews.

still happy

I ended up taking the cingular 6515 back then ordering the UK unlocked ipaq 6515 online from convergent giving me the option to use on the t-mobile network.it cost me a couple hundred dollors more yet well wourth the price..there have been many issues with the cingular 6515,s from sim card proublems to gps not working.i would advise you to skip the cingular ipaq.you may want to buy online uk unlocked or wait for the new ipaq 6940 due for release in mid summer.the 6940 upgrades are wifi as well as wm05.
