Hi,
I just upgraded my SPV M1000 from WM2003 to WM2005 (1.60c WWE version).
I've installed the tomtom software on my pda again but when I run tomtom the BACKLIGHT on the pda doesn't come on. The backlight stays off even when I exit tomtom.
Also, the video camera quality is poor compared to WM2003.
Are there any solutions?
Kind Regards
If you go to buzzdev.net there are instructions on how to edit your tomtom navigator exe file to correct the backlight problem using a hex-editor, and also an updated exe file to download if you don't want to diy. Not sure about the camera though, although I realised after I upgraded my XDA2 to WM2005 that the defualt resolution on the camera wasn't the highest, so it might just be something as simple as changing the resolution....

Hi,
does anybody know, if the TomTom Navigator work on an MDA2. I've got my MDA2 since monday and i am not able to get TomTom Navigator (Version2 incl. the newest Updates) running. The installation-process works fine, but if I start the installed software, I get the lovely circling wheel in the middle of the screen...and that's all...hmmm...so, does anybody got a working installation of tomtom2 on an MDA2 or an XDA2 ???
Next question:
Does anybody have experiences with a Bluetooth-GPS-Mouse on a MDA2 (maybe this question is not very important, if the answer of the question above will be nefative ;-)

There's a thread on Bluetooth GPS and the XDA II/MDA II (http://xda-developers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3341)
in which there is an answer to both your questions.
Haven't seen anything new lately on either topic:
- Tom Tom with any kind of GPS
- Bluetooth GPS
I had the same problem, then I tried a different SD (128 instead of 256) card for map storage and it works. I remember TomTom having the same problems with Ipaq 5450’s until HP issued a fix.
I’ve just ordered a Bluetooth GPS.. Looks like I’ve got more problems ahead.

Please keep us informed, regardless if the Bluetooth GPS fails or not..
By the way: I read a review of the new Toshiba E800 PDA (which has a 480x640 screen :shock: and beautiful indigo color (finally something else)) and the author mentioned testing the PDA with a Rikaline Bluetooth GPS receiver.
At first, he had difficulties connecting the Toshiba and the Rikaline, but managed to solve it by setting TomTom to 'Bluetooth Card' instead of 'COM6'.....
Might be worth a try :?:
Take care :!:
There is no 'Bluetooth Card' setting on Navigator 2.
I still can't get it to work.
Help!

:roll: I guess it has to do with the Bluetooth Manager of the Toshiba then...
Nothing left but wait for Tom Tom updates and more MDA2 Bluetooth profiles
Somebody101, will you try something, install maps to main memory and see if that works, I know you can only install a portion but I would be interested to hear the results.
Hello all
I downgraded my Qtek 2020 from WM2005 to WM2003 SE.
But now I can't make TomTom 5 recognize my Bluetooth GPS.
In WM 2005 it workes great, but I have the backlight problem, so I come back to 2003 SE thinking that that problem was over, but I was mistaken.
I paired my GPS ok and made the outbond to COM5, but still TomTom don't see my GPS.
I also searched this forum and try'd some of the solutions, but no hope.
Can some one help me with this.
what is the best GPS software to run on i-mate SP5? Did any body has any commments on iGuidance software?
Thanks
I don't know about best but Tom Tom for me - no problems
Did you have to install an additional plug in for Tom Tom in order to have it running on i-mate SP5? I heared you have to switch your phone on and off every time you use it!!
No plugins and don't have to switch the phone on/off to use it, although i did have to install the 5.2 update, runs perfect mate.
I'd like to run GPS mapping software with driving directions on my 2125. I'm currently running WM5, but am considering flashing it to WM6.
I have used TomTom and iGuidance on Pocket PC (WM6 Pro) phones and that is the type of software I'm looking for.
I have a Bluetooth GPS and a 2 GB memory card to hold maps. I just need to know what software works well on this device. I'd hate to spend $150 for some software that doesn't work correctly on this phone.
Is there a version of TomTom that runs on WM6 Standard and works with the 240x320 screen of the 2125?
I use TomTom 5.2 with WM6 and it works perfectly, I here some users are using 6 with a patch that allows you to use fake cursor because TomTom 6 is touch screen only.
Hope that helps.
I use BT GPS too (Holux Slim236) with Windows Live Search. It has its flaws but, works fine for what I use it. Flaws: 1. Image doesn't rotate as you turn. 2. No audible voice alerts(turn left, right, etc), just a beep beep when aproching. 3. Requires you to be connected to internet to update maps. Other than that, I feel its a great companion to have installed on phone, even for reference only. Never know when you'll need it.
I use Route66.
Hello,

Hi.
Just installed TTN 7.915 (9196) qvga blue (for pda) and it's working perfectly on my Tornado (spv C600) with WM5.1! Installed last map (v835) too.
The only issue is that the screen is turning OFF after 1 min (my timing setting to turn OFF when on batt power).
