My new job is in a office with no signal network !
If I left my Tytn II 6 meters away from me it works...so the questions is: there is a way to connect an external gprs antenna? I am not speaking about an external Gps antenna but the antenna to make call.
Thanks!
There are two antenna ports on the back of the kaiser beneath the battery cover. Looking at the back of your phone with the USB connector down, the GPS antenna port is on the right and the CELLULAR port is on the left. You can by a antenna at radio shack with an adapter that will plug into the celluar port on your phone. The one I got does not fit will and has to be held in with a rubber band. It works well as I have a 100 ft cable to the roof of my building and I get full signal where as I get none from my office without the external antenna.

That's exactly it, but that's only the adapter and plug for you phone. You'll still need the antenna. Good luck!
since replacing the lcd screen the wifi is dreadful. I'm afraid I might have damaged a connector as it will only connect if the device is right next to the router. Does anybody know where the wifi aerial is situated or which connectors I may have damaged?
I suspect we have a GPS antenna connection under the battery cover. Does anybody know what the connector is called that would connect to that tiny connection? I'd like to try buying an external antenna and seeing once and for all if we have a GPS antenna problem or not.
I was led to believe that connector is a cellular antenna jack, not GPS.
Does anyone know if the connector under the right tab on the back of the Captivate is a functioning external GPS Antenna port? If you take off the battery door it's above the battery compartment and to the right, just beneath a copper ground tab.
It looks similar to the external GPS antenna port on my old HTC Tilt....
I believe that is an external antenna that you would hook up a wilson repeater etc to. I know thats what my Omnia had. I have since sold the Wilson, so have no way to test....But the plug looks identical to what I had on the Omnia. So thats my best guess.

I swapped my motherboard and now my gps does not lock. I tested the voltage and it measures 0.4 volts between the socket and ground. I have swapped the receiver still the same.
There are 2 pinouts on the board. When I removed the old wire there was a wire bridging the 2 pinouts, one wire to the gps unit connected across the 2 pinouts on the board. I was confused how this was, but assumed it was correct. The board is a kld2
I feel I have connected the wire incorrectly?
