XDA Exec and Tom Tom 5 - General Topics

Can anyone tell me how to install tom tom 5 to the xda exec? I copy the files direct to my sd card and it's supposed to auto install after re-installing the sd into the exec.The start up screen comes up and goes off - nothing else.Needless to say I've installed the same onto my xda II without any problems - any help appreciated.

WM5 + tomtom
Hi,
Tomtom is not compatible with WM2005, according to the tomtom site. they dont have any news on when it will be.
cheers
Paul

Thanx for the quick reply Paul, it saves me pulling any more of my hair out.Seems as always I should have waited until they ironed all the problems out.
Cheers mate!!

Search the forum, you can use TomTOm 5.1 with the XDA Exec apparently if you install the CABs to the Storage card. It has to be the update 5.1, V5 won't work at all.
HTH
Fin

Although they offer no support it does work but the standard installer will not work. The maps are really nice on the higher res screen.
You have to copy the CAB files to your SD card and run them manually. EG double click them.
You will need TomTom 5.1
The files you need are
ttn.cab
gps.cab
wzd.cab
PIMAddin.cab
I run them in that order. Then i use Checkpoint version 5 for the POI warnings like speedcameras etc.
My TomTom BT Receiver is found automatically but a friend has a third party BT Receivers and we had to mess about a lot to get it to work. There are instructions in another thread on here for that if you need it.

Again thanx to everyone for the info, in reading that I managed to get it up and running - what a vast improvement to the last version and with superior graphics.
Cheers for the help!!!

Tom Tom 5 with XDA Exec + Pharos igps
Dingo, you're right about 3rd party gps receivers. Can't seem to find any gps signal at all, when pairing the two it comes up with a question mark and the name of the receiver ( no question mark on the xda2).Is there drivers to download and if so where do you download them to or can you re-direct me to the site/post you're talking about. Thanx matey....

Tomtom on WM 6

Has anyone installed tomtom 6 on tornado with wm6 installed?
I can not get het it to work, tried the "TomTom 6.020 for Windows Mobile Smartphone"
Furthermore i need the T9 cab for swedish also if anyone can provide a link.
Thanx
tomtom 6 run on my tornado , it only need to set on "never" display time out becouse tomtom dont do it ...
Tomtom 6.000 and 6.010 are running fine without going back to the homescreen. Version 6.020 and 6.030 also work fine, but they return to the homescreen after a while. Even with the display time-out on "never".
You also may have some problems installing 6.010 because it will tell you it is not intended for this device. So, install 6.000 and copy the exe file and the data.chk file from 6.010. works for me.
I also have Tomtom mobile 5.2 running because it runs better with the keyboard.

The latest Tomtom 6.201 run perfect on my Tornado w/ phil's Alpha ROM, no backlight bug, no turn on delay, but it dosent work w/ the Beta and any other Andot's ROMs, the apparent problem is cant be found any maps, thats unbelievable!

With tt5 you must put "GPS" in the name of the gps receiver when you pair it. For tt6 this is not necessary. For both tt5 and tt6 you most define a com port. (probably com6). In tt6 you must select this com port. This is tricky because you need a program to control the mouse. The most easy way is to use "Pocket Controller-Pro" to control your smartphone from your pc.
have fun

true. you should type as many characters until the city you want is at the top of your list. then press the joystick-button.

Hi there ! I try to install the ttn.cab - it says installing but nothing happens.
I read nearly all posts but TT6 and WM6 - what can be the problem ?
I tried the ttn.cab 6.01 and 6.03 but nothing can be installed on the sdcard.
What else can I do ?

You have no included voices because you are downloading and installing a TRIAL version. TOMTOM is a commercial package and if you want the full maps (don't ask how to find the full maps here) instead of just the 1 trial map and the voices then you should pay for the full package.
That being said, as indicated the free tomtom voices work fine and only require you to download 3 files to the VOICES folder in root of the storage card and delete the combined.ini file so tomtom will rescan the voices. I personally use the "knight rider" voice.
Free voices are available at: http://www.ozpoi.com/TomTom_Voices.html
@famewolf, thanks quick reply and link..
as you said i have to delete combined.ini, where is this file locate?
can you use more than 1 voice?
thanks so much...

combined.ini is in the voice folder where all the other files go. You should be able to switch between voices at will..not sure how else you plan to "use more than 1 voice".
i'm still can get it work, could not find combined.ini file..i'm now download tomtom 7 repack 3 hope this will fix...
i have create map and voices folders in root directory device memory, map work fined but still have no voice useable ( all voice is in voices folder), i'm not sure because of WM 6 or tomtom itself..
i test it on my friend WM 5 it's work perfect on both voices and map..but WM 6 no voices...
my map version is META-14 ( with no voices built in )
is any more advice?
thanks in advance
Exactly the same thing happened to me. I used WM5 on my Atom with Tomtom 5 and it work perfectly ok with map and voices. Now upgraded to WM6.1 and Tomtom 7, the map works but no voices. Tried put voice folder onto everywhere on my SD card still no luck. Need help guys.

tom tom on td2

have a qeustion wil tomtom 6.030 work on touch diamond 2 because i have dis one all ready
i really hope its gonna work
tnx
hope somebody response
No, you'll need Tomtom 7, which you can get from this forum. Tomtom 7 does not work with your version 6 maps, so you'll have to purchase new maps. Yes it sucks. Also, you cannot move your Tomtom services, such as Traffic, over to your TD2. This is because Tomtom refuse to support the device.
Sorry for the bad news.
Personally, I'm so pissed off with Tomtom that I'm seriously considering using something else like IGo.
tom tom
yes i'am not gonna buy the tom tom 7 i'am really mad too
i have igo 8 also then i'm just gonna put that one on my td2
really tom tom sucks for not make tom tom 6 work on td2
thanks for your answer you really help me out

Hey all! On my phone it is that version that works perfectly! If there are problems with the voices, simply copy the voices folder on your memory card!

Hello
Where should I put the voices folder?
When I start the tt7 they ask me to add a new card, then I go directly on the website to choose the card I download it but then where should I install it ?
Thank you
Voices goes in the root directory of the SD card. Same as the maps directory.
Latest tt7 bought from tt on 4GB microSD does'nt install nor work

How did you do it, man?
I bought the SD-Card TomTom 7 with Europe_1GB maps (825 built 2159) offered on TomTom's website since some weeks.
Neither install, manual install, TomTom Home nor something else works.
The extracted "TomTom Navigator.exe" and also the Home app 2.6 refused to support my O2 TDII device.
Then I installed 7.910.9185 black VGA, but I was only able to download one city map. My bought Europe maps are recogniced, but rejected when I select it through menu "maps change".
How can I make use of my Product code now? Or is there any chance at all?
Please help, or send me some hints by PM.

You have to make a shortcut to windows\startmenu\programs.
You can copy the file and paste it as a shortcut to the programs folder with explorer. If you don't like the name "Shortcut ..." you can rename the shortcut to whatever you like.
If you now look at your programs than you will see your shortcut. There is also the problem of the clipped voice. You can run any audio program except Media Player with a silent audio file, then the voice clipping is gone.
You can also search for the audio problem fix. Someone has made a cab file to fix al the problems in one installation.

Tomtom 6 'memory access violation' ideas wanted!
Had Tomtom 6 (fully legal) working fine on my Kaiser. On TD2/Topaz, whatever I do (soft,hard reset, load from different sources) I get the same 'Tomtom cannot start: memory access violation' msg. Internet search shows lots of people with same prob, but no answers or workarounds. Seems to me might be screen/display related as TT starts to load but with squashed format before hanging. Reluctant simply to buy TT7 in case a) that exhibits the same prob and TT specifically do not support the TD2/Topaz at the mo and b) some people seem to have got TT6 working fine on TD2.
Any ideas gratefully appreciated- might have to have a look at iGo as previous poster suggested, which is a shame as have used Tomtom since v2.
Thanks,
Tony

Tomtom doesn't give any Resolution errors, so it should work for any resolution, but the Tomtom Version Tomtom 7.910
Tomtom 7.910 needs v 8.XXX maps, but you should be careful some map versions are only for PNAs ... You you should download the maps compatible with PDA or PDA&PNA
Tomtom is the best for Europe, but I do not like its simplicity, I like iGO 8.3.X Maps are updated monthly
Tomtom can not identify your device's com ports as well, for example, it may find your internal gps as a bluetooth gps, or viceversa.. So you should search for any kind of gps device in settings of tomtom in case if it does not recognize automatically

QVGA TT doesnt work on VGA or WVGA.
Maps are update continualy via map share.
TT identify COM ports without problems on all HTC devices or zou can set port manually.
any lag on tomtom?
On the videos looks like tomtom have a lag of 20 30 meters, and trying myself igo and copilot doesnt have lag at all, so, why use tomtom?
Guys here you'll find all latest TT. For sure on HD2 you should use VGA version:

I shared QVGA version of 7.910 on one web site, but before sharing I tried it on Htc HD, Htc Diamond, Htc Diamond 2, Htc TyTN II. So these resolutions are, QVGA, VGA, WVGA.
TT sometimes identify your Internal GPS as a bluetooth GPS, I say this information if some can not find their internal GPS, aim is to help to solve issues not to say bad things about TT.
If you have licensed version you may find correct maps, but ones that do not have should be careful to download maps that are compatible with PDA.
Regards.
Anyone has the same problem?
I've tried TT 7.910, 7.915 and 7.916, but all have a refresh lag.. So normally the screen (your position) is updated every second, but at my HD2 it updates in 5 or 7 seconds!
I've tried the internal GPS as wel the COM4 and 9600 baud GPS...
Google Maps works perfect (as far as I can see).
Don't know what to do about it.
Anyone?
Xmoo, The TomTom application works indeed but as soon as it starts it says it can't find any maps and then tries to make an internet connection in order to download maps at www.htc-citymaps but it then results in an error as the webpage doesn't exist.
How do you get TomTom to work with the maps and speech ?
Note: the installation CAB was 9 MB's hardly enough to conatin a full working navigation tool so it's clear that i'm missing data.
TT Maps n voices
black vga cab is 13.3MB - no voices, no maps no htc-citymaps - no joy....

Hi all,
I see that you can now download tomtom v7.916 here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=556316

am really interested in the type for each phone
also what version maps should i be buying? I am guessing v8 but does it matter which version map

An other issue could be that the maps you are using are not compatible with your tomtom version..
Thanks for all the advice people.
I have managed to get it working, i had to create a 'CurrentMap.dat' file and place it in '\My Documents\TomTom'. This tells tomtom which map to look for.

With WM 6.5 you don't need the TomTom Audio Fix anymore
All 7 versions of TomTom wil work with the HTC TD2.
I have had 7.450, 7.915, 7.916 and many different builds.
Now I have v7.916 Build 9192.
There is a new version of TT
TomTom Navigator 7.918.9193
can anyone please let me know what settings you use for Tomtom 7?
For example, do you select the "internal gps" or "other enmea"? If you select the "Other .." then what "COM" and "Baud Rate" do you use?
I have wm6.5 and tomtom 7.45.
Thanks
It depends what you are using
What is your device?
Do you use an external GPS device?

If you select "Other", choose COM4, baud rate can be 4800 or more, 19200 may be a good choice. Note that some versions of Tomtom 7 do not show properly the list of received satellites, both with "internal Gps" or "Other..."
One most recent version of Tomtom solves this problem and also solves the audio cutoff issue (for WM6.1 users).

my device is diamond2 and i have installed tt7.45 on it successfully but i do not get any gps signal.
i was wondering is there any particular set up required for it to work?
No i have the TD2 also and in the beginning i used internal GPS and it worked great accept for the lag.
Go to settings from windows and go to external GPS
in Programs my setting says COM4
in Hardware my settings says None and 4800
in the third tab(toegang in dutch) chek the box
Try to install the latest version of TomTom Navigator 7.917.9186
and use GPS Mod Driver http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=571266

...try to get outdoor ;-)
Download the latest Quickgps.
How long did you wait?
I tried outside including on top of the roof at work!!! waited for 30 mins, to signal at all!!!! not even one grey bars!!!
I have the TT 7.45, wm6.5 (official). I have run quick GPS a couple of times as well.
I was wondering if it would help if I cohse to install a custom FW like Dutty's.
But I will try to get the latest TT and GPS Mod Driver and report back here on how I get on.
thanks

really strange; I never had such problems; I also didn't need the gps mod driver;
How is tt configured? Built in receiver?
Cyron - which version of TT have you installed?
What settings have you applied (internal GPS, or NMEA with com4)?
thanks

Edit: You can try Google maps (active GPS) to find the satelites.
