Not a valid win32 application

Can anyone help!..Iam trying to load up TomTom navigator 5 into my XDA from my pc but all iam getting is "Not a valid win32 application", is there a workaround for the problem.
Iam running XP Home on my pc and have a XDA1 running pocket pc 2002 version 3.17.03

maybe it's a pocketpc exe file ?

Yep- agreed with Rudegar...
Copy the file on PPC/SD Card and execute it from there.

No tried that not working

Download the file from another mirror/link. This exe might not have been completely downloded or could be corrupt.

hi there you have to copy the files out of the TomTom folder onto your MMc and then go into file browser and run it.
i made same mistake i put the tomtom folder on the mmc and went in to it and tried to installl but no look,u need to put the CONTENTS of that folder on the MMC then select the start(two tomtom hands) it will install then

Thanks mate, you done the trick....took it out of the original file and copied individually to the SD Card - took ages but cracked it, works a treat.
Again thanks

Tomtom makes my bluetooth stop working, I have the answer

hi
i just got the tomtom and bluetooth issue and i found a way for it to work!!!
this takes from everyones solution and kinda of mixes it into one.
(Please note i am a newbie to this so if this works for you like it did for me great!!!! if not then please let me know and i will try)
yes you will need the tom tom cab file
All actions are to be done on the phone only!!
1) install the tomtom cab file and select the STORAGE DEVICE only. DO NOT INSTALL ON DEVICE!!!
it should restart to complete the installation.
2) when the phone restarts it should come up with an error message the bt file is not a pocketpc file and gives you the normal error.
3) While the phone is switched on remove your memory card.
4) go to settings, application, remove programs and select the tom tom program and remove it.
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO HAVE REMOVED YOUR MEMORY CARD BEFORE YOU REMOVE THE SOFTWARE.
5)The phone should then be restarted.
6) You should have now a normal phone that works and bluetooth should be fine.
7) now insert your memory card.
8) go to start, file explorer, storage card, program files, then navigator, here you need to copy the tomtom navigator exe file.
this should be the file with the tom tom logo(the one with the red hands).
copy this file, you do this by pressing on the file and hold it down.
so copy file.
9) now go back to the device memory, you just press the down arrow in the top left hand corner and select my device.
10) now select windows, start menu, programs, and copy the shortcut to this folder.
11) select the tom tom file and rename from "short cut to tomtom" to just tomtom.
12) restart the phone!!! THIS IS IMPORTANT
Now you can access the tom tom from the start menu on your phone and create a shortcut on your phone to it!!!!!
yes yes it was abit of an epic walk thru but this worked 100% for me!!!
you are welcome and thanks to this forum for the apps!!!!

please can you say if this worked or not please

To get Bluetooth working again, you just delete these 2 files then restart your phone.
BtSdkCE30.dll and BtCoreIf.dll

Or use one of the HD2 specific TT cabs that allready have the BT files removed. Works like a charm.

TT for HD2 cab please...
tomasz
Can you provide the link for TT u mentioned please?

How can I remove these two files (BtSdkCE30.dll and BtCoreIf.dll), because on my device these two files are closed by the system ??

Just rename them both, to something like BtSdkCE30old.dll and BtCoreIFold.dll...
It should do the trick

No, I can´t rename the file because they are locked by the system

Are using Total Commander or Resco Explorer? The normal File Explorer will not allow it.

How does NaviPanel work with iGO8 in Windows Mobile Phones?

How does NaviPanel work with iGO8 in Windows Mobile Phones?
I tried many times to find the right suitable way to make the navigation program iGO8 work through the NaviPanel Application in my hTC hd2 and finally I found the solution to this problem.
You should do the following steps one by one to get the best results:
1-Create a file directory under the name CoPilot in your phone memory Program files
2-Install the cab file”MSN-NaviPanel” into your phone in your memory card (this application contains the necessary files to define the Copilot navi extension in the NaviPanel. Thanks to xda-developers forum.
3-After installing the “MSN-NaviPanel”cab file you will find two files which are “config.ini” and “Copilot” and “NaviPanel” inside the CoPilot folder that you created in the Program Files.
4-Now you have to open the iGO8 folder in the Program Files and copy the following files:
sys
gpstmc.dll
iGO8.exe
5-Paste them into CoPilot folder you created.
6-Change the name of the “iGO8.exe” file into “CoPilot.exe”.
7-Make another copy of the iGO8.exe file in the same CoPilot folder and name it “splashscreen.exe”.
8-Now you have 7 files in your “CoPilot” folder.
9-Make the following changes to “config.ini” and “sys” files
Sys file >>>>
[folders]
app="Storage card\igo_folder_as_you_named_it"
config.ini file >>>>>
Path=\Program Files\iGO8\iGO8.exe
KeepAlive=on
10-Don’t run NaviPanel when you are connecting the phone to the internet while doing this operation…. Wait till you finish everything.
11-Now do the soft reset to your device.
12-Run NaviPanel and enjoy iGO8 at the same time.
Note: if you receive a message which says that you should restart installing iGO8 because of the SDcard is not original don’t be afraid, do it and restart the program.

There's threads and posts on this already. Basically it just launches the program for the buttons on NaviPanel.

Agree for that!

Thanks for posting.I too had the same problem figuring bis out myself.
Is it possible for an xda-developer to built a cab to make the following:
a)Create a Copilot folder
b)Copy allsdk to windows folder and
c)Making the proper key to the registry
Thanks,

yes, but I think other explanations are not enough to do the operation and there are many visitors who dont have enough knowledge about programing. It is a matter of development but not invention. My all thanks to whom participated in providing all informations about such issues.

What do u mean exactly?
Did u get this when u installed the above mentioned cabs or what?
If so i suggest modifying your sys.txt clearly specifying the correct path.
[folders]
app="Storage Card/iGO8"
I hope this helps

Moreover can a cook\chef\wizkid from xda devs replace the htc navi crap with sth that works.I would prefer music player integration,cameraand ability to choose over GPS apps. I think it would have come up to be very handy for all of us and a lot of people would donate for this.

you are trying to use igo Primo, and the folder global_cfg from content (on storage card) is missing. that's why.

the navipanel cab has made my phone unstable and keeps htc sense freezing

[Q] How to format an SD-Card on Windows CE

Hello!
I have a Navigation System (LG) running Windows CE in my car.
On this Navigation System I can run the TotalCommander to see the storage devices.
On one SD-Card there are some files I tried to replace but the copy process was interrupted.
After deleting all files from the SD-Card, there is still not the complete space free anymore.
I think that the interrupted parts are still taking place on the SD-Card and I can't get rid of them.
How can I completely remove all data (even if there is nothing shown anymore) from the SD-Card?
Is there any "Storage-Tool" available, which I can run as an executable file?
I can't install any CAB Files on this files. I just can start EXE Files through the TotalCommander.
Thanks in advance,
Michael

Hello @Gerti72
There is a program out there called Flash Format that works on WindowsCE 3.0 and Up. If you do a google search you should be able to find it and D/L it.
Hope this helps.

Hello orbitA13,
already found this Tool, but I'm unable to download an EXE File which I can directly start from my USB-Stick from TotalCommander.
I only be able to download a Tool to install it from my PC to a Windows CE Device (but I didn't have this option).
Any idea?

Michael

Hi!
Found a soultion.
There is a Tool stgui.cpl available on this device (it seems to be part of Windows CE), which allows to check the status and to correct errors.

Excellent, Thank you for posting back your solution. So many say they found a way to do things but do not post about it. This should help others as well.
