Tom Tom 5 Probs on Win Mobile 2005 - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 2005 Upgrading

OK my tomtom5 works fine with Win Mobile 2003, I just put the SD Card in and it auto installs. With Win Mobile 2005 I put the card in and the setup exits after 2 secs.
Is there a way round this???
Many Thanks

tomtom 5 officially doesnt support wm2005 yet so it cant be garueteed to work

There is an easy fix for this problem, use file explorer on your pda to open the "2577" folder on the storage card an then run each of the four cab files one after the other. Tomtom is then installed and working great.

in my WM2005 device (XDAII), TomTom works but the screen stays dark all the time, everythingn else works ok. It takes a soft reset to fix it, anyone else have same problem or know a fix?

It did it to me today (just once) I restarted tomtom and had no more problems for the rest of the drive. I'm getting a bit suspicious tho, maybe it's not so stable as I thought.
favourites, home etc are saved normally
try and alternative sd card, i had lots of weird problems with tomtom shutting down and general lockups.. New sd now ok
if you get the issue where you cannot save fav's or home location, put the sd car into a pc 2k or xp and right click on the maps folder and check the folders and contents are not set to read only.. had me stumped for a bit..
turn off all your POI's in the menu (dont show them at all) and Im 99% sure the problem will be gone
something's fishy about TT5 and POI's
I had the same problem, and used this patch

which was posted in this thread

Never had any problems since, using loads of POI's.
Hi neostar,
If this one is working we'll owe you much.... In my case, I was never able to use POI functionality(from the very beginging).
For the rest, indeed, if you don't want to have weird behaviour, stop using POIs...
Regards,
R.
tge problem on mine is with the poi,i can click on all the poi except one.if i click on the cash dispenser one that's when it crashes and turns off!strange?!?!

Switch off POI's !
I also had the same problem, up until recently where everything has been working perfectly, and I have noticed my POI's are actually off. As soon as I switch them on......TT5 closes. :shock:
try having some on but not cash dispenser,then,turn them all off and put the cash dispenser on.that's what closes it for me
POI
Indeed TomTom does not crash th moment hen I use POI (after installing the patch neostar pointed). But now:
1. The routes are not saved after restart
2. The favorites are lost after restart.
As a matter of fact, all the settings that were in place before installing the patch are preserved, nothing done after the patch installation is preserved.
Cheers,
R.
It's not the patch, cause I use it too and my settings are saved!
Good point,
What should be the reason than ???
10X,
M.

excellent, works like a charm, thx
I have the same problem too..
I lose all my favorites e.t.c each time I close down the tomtom.
Any ideas?
To solve the Home/Favourites not saving, make sure every file in your Map folder is writable (i.e. not Read Only)
To solve the crashing issue, download a working POI.DAT file... one of the TomTom cracks included a GB map with a corrupt POI file... there are cracks with a working one.
try renaminmg the 2577 folder to something else
I had a problem with the app reinitialising itself every time I turned teh device on - this soved it

SPB Clone cooked my apache!

Hi guys.
I installed SPB clone, as I used it with my Blue Angel without an issue.
seems to work fine on my WM5 device UNTIL it soft resets into its own "boot" mode where it just runs the cloning app.
however it gets stuck in the Welcome to Windows Mobile 5 splash, and doesnt do anything else.
soft-reset doesnt fix it.
short of hard-rebooting Ive tried everything else.
anyone know of a work around for this?

SPB Pocket Plus

I upgraded my S200 to PDAMobiz AKU3.2. But now my pda hangs when I soft reset it after SPB Pocket Plus installation, and I cant solve this problem.
Any had this problem?
Any tips or solutions?
Thanks in advance.
It's mentioned here,http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=282526
And,It sounds like no solution.
sorry for my bad Engilsh.
SPB pocket plus does not work with aku 3.2... I have the same problem... works fine with aku 2.3...
I have a Universal with Ivan´s beta 14, wich i believe is AKU3.2, and spb pocketplus is working fine... or maybe this is a issue only with prophet.

i does not work with 3.2 wizard either.
Ok i also had the problem with pocket plus and found a fix.
You need to deactivate the Safe Mode from pocket plus for it to work fine after reboot
SPB PocketPlus 3.1.2

In my case it is not even installing. After ActiveSync sends the CAB to my MDA and I select MAIN MEMORY, as opposed to Storage Card, it quits a few seconds and says the installation was unsuccessful...
In the other hand, if I select STORAGE CARD, the installer complains that it may not work because the storage card service may start up later than the call for the application I am installing.
Any recommendations?

Route 66 Navigate 7 on WM6.1

Does anyone have R66N7? I seem to have problems with it on all WM6.1 ROMs I have tried. At first I thought it was IPSMS, but now I am not so sure (as it has gone wrong again and I haven't installed IPSMS this time).
It appears to sometimes go wrong after syncing (Active Sync) and lately after using PPCPimBackup to restore files.
The common thing with these three things is Pocket Outlook (Messaging). You can see what happens in my screen shot . R66 still works, but is missing the button/info details as shown. Does anyone have any problem like this, or ideas? The only way I can get R66 back to normal is to hard-reset the device (uninstall/reinstall does not sort it out).
I had R66N7 and it worked perfectly! Now, I am with R66N8 and it works very well as well.. I have tried almost all WM6.1 ROM's here and all them works good with R66
Darn - just the reply I didn't want to hear. Must be my Uni
Nice to know that R66M8 works on Uni though. I may get an upgrade.
Have you a 64MB or 128MB Uni, though?

registry problem
Many people encounter the following computer problems: take a long time to start up, load websites or run programs. Recently I find functional software which can fix all these problems just with one click: tuneup360, maybe you guys could have a try.
Actually most times there is no need to rebuild or reinstalled your PC windows system, what you need is a PC protector. TUNEUP360 is good choice, you just need to click one big “fix now” button and get your computer fixed at once. ---By DearBrands Software
