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
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=24268&highlight=tomtom
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,

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
i tried installing and removing tom tom mobile .. now everytime my xda 2s powers down and i start it up (turn it on) i getthe following message ..
cannot execute \storagecardz tom tom\ttgpseng.exe
how do i stop it?
Cheers

check in your Today Items settings, it may still be trying to load the TomTom today part.
Hi All,
I have installed Destinator 6/7 (both versions) many times and it worls for 1-2times and then it stops at the first screen and today screen pops up again. The top status bar is destinator but lower half is today screen.
I even flashed my Wizard many times with diffrent flavours of WM 5 and 6. It works hardly once or twice then same problem.
Everytime I hard reset it, it works 1 time and then again the problem is shown.
Has anyone has managed to make any version of destinator to work (either 6 or 7) on any WM??? Does anyone have the same problem with me???
Thanks in advance.
Working on WIZA200
IPL=2.26
SPL=2.26
GSM=2.25.11
OS=2.26.10.2 (using a WM5 ROM)
Hi,
With destinator 6 I never had any problems.
It was working with WM5 and with WM6.
Sometimes I had to stop all other programs to get more free memory.
Did you test this already?
Hi,
I've been using Destinator 6 without any issues on my K-jam. I suggest you to uninstall everything except maps on SD. Then, install it again on the main memory. Also, surf on the Destinator technology site if there's an upgrade or something to your country.
Wish you luck!
Cheers!
hi, i had the same problem that you have now, but only with wm6,
i find out that when i hard reset my device or upgrade a new rom i allways backuped all my pim data using pimbackup 2.5.
then after the upgrade i restored all my pim info, and then the problem with destinator 6 or 7 begins.
the solution for me was that when i backuped my pim data i unchecked an option in the pimbackup called ""binary backup"", then after that, when i restore the pim data ,destinator works fine.
so, are you restoring your personal data using pimbackup?
if so, maybe this is the solution
by the way, i am using a prophet
Thanks for your replies..
Today I re-installed TNT.1933_Prof_HTC ROM and increased pool size to 12 MB. Right now the memory stats are:
Storage Memory Free = 38.8 MB
Program Memory Free = 18.2 MB
Destinator and Maps both are installed on the Storage Card (2 GB) with 200 MB free space. This made it to work for 2 times and again it stopped.
Also, I realized that the program actually crashes as there is no entry of the program in the task manager.
So this has rather become a crash issue with Destinator.
Any insight will be very much apreciated...
And, I use a Bluetooth based GPS receiver.
Thanks.
I don't think it is a memory issue. As detailed in the last post it has some 16 MB of mem free.
joesa: Yes, I also use PIM Backup to restore my Emails/SMS. Do you think that is causing the problem. I'll try to disable the bin backup while restoring.
Thank you for the clue.
I don't know V7.0 but I think it should be very similar than V6. I insist you to install the core app into the main memory and just leave all maps on SD. Then, you can hard reset many times without having to install maps again. I'm telling you exactly what my local support said at the time I faced installation issues with V6.
Good luck btw....
This indeed was a crash issue due to unwanted binaries. Thanks joesa for that clue. After disabling that binary option in PIMBackup the problem disappeared. Destinator is working Fine on my Wizard (Both program and maps on SD).
Thanks a lot for sharing your experiences.

Ok, but is there a solution for us, who do not want to do a hard reset?
I just reinstalled everything on Thursday, can't do it again
Maybe backup and restore PIM without hard reseting, and with unchecked binary setting? Would this work?

i'm afraid that if you don't have a previus rom backup(sprite, spbbackup), before using pimbackup, you would have to hard reset, i never was able to make it work after restoring my pim data with pimbackup(binary)

I'm having this problem without doing anything to my PIM. It seemed to start arbitrarily. Is the restore of PIM modifying some files somewhere in a manner that Destinator doesn't like? If so, which files? Maybe mine got modified by some other app and if I delete/manually alter them I can get it going again?

it took me a lot of time to find out that pimbackup(binary) was the program that screwed destinator(guess it has something to do with databases), what i did to find the program was:
hard reset, install destinator and tried, install next of my needed program and tried destinator, install next program and tried, and so untill i found wich program screws destinator,
sorry i can't help
good to hear that !!!!!!
Would Activesync contribute with the crash?
I haven't any pim backup in my TYTN II and hard reseting the ppc every week is complicated.
Think I'll stop using Destinator.
Problem stills...
Any news????
I have an htc touch pro and installed destinator 7. It worked well for a few days and then suddenly refused to load. It crashed at the start screen. After a lot of experimenting I found the solution. I deleted all my sms-mms contents and then destinator was working again! I believe that certain characters from sms's are the cause, since destinator has a built in facility to send an sms. It's annoying though since each time you have a crash you need to remove your sms contents.
kospan - you're my man due to having the same issue i tried ypour solution and - that's it!!! i'm glad to tell you and all those who having this problem, too, that it's only the MMS - if you delete only all stored mms then it will work fine again too
I'm glad I could help! So only MMS? I guess that is good news because I will be able to keep my sms, which are far more than the mms.
need to delete both SMS/MMS
In my diamond, i had to delete both the SMS/MMS to make the destinator work.
Thank you guys for your support.

Hello,
After I tried the update of the Radio Firmware 0.89 my handheld acts like crazy. I am tired of customizing it and then having to hard reset it!
The problem is: after about 2 days of working the sound mutes completely on my IPAQ 614c, with the new Radio! Also when I try to restore my backup (I used multiple backup software like Sunny backup and Resco Backup) it also mutes completely. I already tried going back to 0.88 but the problem which appeared seems not to go away (when I restore the old backup file I never had issues with, now the phone mutes even on 0.88 ).
Please help. I would need any advise on how I could correct the mute problem after it appears. It is most probably a registry issue or a windows file issue (maybe).
I appreciate any help, as I am in despair.
Thank you!

Nobody has the same issue?
