I sent a mail to AMOD HQ and I didn't get a reply either, I just wanted to check if my unit is v1 or v2, because I made some testings and as another reviewer said: works like a drunken sailor.
I made a fixed location test for 45 minutes and the worst result gave me a 76 meters distance from the location, also tracking while I'm walking on the street is awful... very bad. Any ideas?
PS: Sorry for my english, is not my native language. |

| gpspassion did they give you any idea when v3 would be out. Seems to me it would be a simple fix ? |

| I wasn't too sure about that, but it seems the SN On/Off utility will be compatible with the existing models and should become available within a week or so, so let's stay tuned for more ! |

| Made another trail today while cross-country skiing; open woods and clearing. The unit recorded a single track while moving but whenever I was stationary for a while, it would record seemingly random spikes. Not something to inspire confidence. If the fix can bring these under control, this would be a very good GPS logger. Until then, if you have this unit, keep moving. |

| Actually what you describe sounds like a SiRFstarIII GPSr with Static Navigation "off" (see the full article I linkded earlier for details), I wonder if you don't have a v1 that had SN off and sensitivity issues. |

| How do I tell? Inside the battery cover is a tag with a p/n and a s/n. Is there a list that would identify the version? |

| @GPSPASSION How can I tell if I have a v1 or v2? Mine has a serial number sticker inside the battery compartment. Can you tell which version is with that serial number? |

UPDATE ON SN : Looks like the new firmware I was told about is available here : http://www.amod.com.tw/Support/support.htm - it's called "Firmware upgrade for AMOD GPS Photo Tracker for SN off"
Downloaded and installed without a hitch !
The release notes also mention a new "SETUP MODE" with 6 logging modes with update rates of 1/5/10 seconds. One thing they don't say is that once you have set the mode you want you have to press the power button for 5+ seconds to get back to register the setting and turn off the device.
In Mode 6 (RMC 10 seconds) you can log for a hefty 2880 hours or 120 days ! |

Downloaded and will install it soon. While there, I also noticed another new file "AGL3080_V2.0_Original.zip" Should it also be installed first, it being V2.0 while the "AGL3080_V2.0S_SNOff.zip" is V2.0S? OR is it a way to reverse the change?
Edit. After reading the Release notes, the two files are complimentary, for either SN on or Off.
Edit 2
Also had a smooth upgrade. Now it is sitting on my windowsill for an other overnight static test. |

Great! I just downloaded the new firmware, but I don't know what "GGA/GSA/RMC/VTG" means, can anybody help me so I can setup the device?
With this update AMOD AGL3080 has become in a much better GPS device, the option to choose the update interval was a must-have for this device. Logging while walking used to retrieve jumping coordinates, I think now it will me more accurate. NOW I'm so happy with my purchase. Thanks AMOD and GPSPASSION! |

I was skeptical when I heard about incoming update of firmware. I own many devices for which vendors promised upgrades and fixes and rarely they keep their word. That is why I am very happy to announce that new firmware 2.0s for AGL3080 is fixing OTG issue. In other words I am able to copy files directly from GPS to harddrive without use of the computer (please read my previous posts for details). Great work AMOD, thanks Gpspassion for help.
