I have been trying without luck to get Tom Tom 3 BT to work on my XDA2i when using a BT headset.
As many of you will know this means frequenct lock ups and resets.
Tom Tom's latest response to me is as follows:
Dear Mr *****,
TomTom are only able to offer support to devices that are on our comatibility list.
The XDA IIi is not compatible with either TomTom Navigator 3 or 5.
I'm very sorry but we can not be of further assistance to you with this incompatible PDA.
With best regards,
The TomTom Customer Support Team
Nice one Tom Tom, perhaps this should have been mentioned when I bought the software huh?
So my question is this. What Sat Nav package works on the XDA2i. I have a BT GPS receiver and wish to use a BT headset when driving
I have an XDA 11i on pay as you go - could I use it for finding where I am at any given time (ie when I am lost !) - not for directions as I go.
If you buy a GPS receiver you can connect it to the XDA.
It does not have GPS built in.
would it work if I loaded software such as TomTom ?
TomTom only provides route mapping software.
In order to use TomTom you still need the GPS hardware.
A seperate GPS receiver is required no matter what software is on the XDA, the phone needs a seperate receiver to see the GPS signal, and cannot pick this up itself.
Thanks for your help and patience .
i have a vox with WM 6.1 clean rom and i want to install a gps software to work with a bluetooth gps receiver... what software do you use?? i see that the tomtom is impossible to use but i know theres also the garmin mobile and the navigon...
theres anyone who use this software?? it's simple to install??
thank you
Hi,
I use Route 66, very good software.
You can try Sygic McGuider, it's a new app, and seems to be a good alternative.
If you want TomTom, you can, with fakecursor (cursor emulator).
Bye.
can you suggest a good reciver that is not that expensive?
I took a Blumax receiver... cheap and it works with Route 66.
Route 66 will sometimes disconnect from the receiver while calculating the route, I just reset the receiver (takes all of 5 seconds) and it works again.
Hello,
I have just received my new bluetooth GPS / TMC "mouse" receiver, the GNS5870 and I'm trying to use it over a BT connection with my IGO8 software. The GPS signal is super, but when I try to activate the TMC, Igo will not detect any "TMC hardware"... What I'm doing wrong?
I have to mention that I make the tests on my pda (a Dell Axim X30i) for the moment and if everything is ok, I will test it on my Kaiser also.
Thanks in advance for your answers and wish you a very Happy New Year!
Conrad

Hi, have you any problems with the bluetooth after the installation of tomtom?
Could you try, please?
Thanks
Davide
the tomtom work fine with htc touch2
You shouldn't post warez links on here or you'll get barred!
If you like tomtom, have a search for Sygic Mobile Maps 10 - it's like a newer version of TomTom, maintains its simplicity whilst adding a few extra features and being a lot smoother, unlike Igo8 which is just too complicated...
sorry for noob question
Why do you need bluetooth to use GPS program? You just need to insall the program you want and launch it.

Obviously bluetooth will determine loacation but i wondered if wifi has to be active at same time or at any time.

hi, i've downloaded these files but i dono how to install them. there's no .exe
i see setup.xml and more files with extension archive001,002,etc.
I've got this HTC TOUCH PRO2 special edition (T3320) from INDIA about a month back.(if i'm not wrong ,it's called HTC mega in europe ?)
Device information:
ROM: 1.32.1300.2 (72483)
ROM date: 12/16/09
Radio Ver: 3.50.25.15
At present i've installed Sygic. It detects the inbuilt GPS on com4 with baud rate of 4800. Everything works fine except: It doesn't catch any satellites. i kept it on for more than 45mins but no signal. Is there anyting i can do ?... i've downloaded this tom tom to try it out.
Please help me either to get the sygic working or installing this Tom TOm.
thanks in advance n
regards.

Looks like this is only a theme / skin for QVGA devices. TomTom is not freeware, so you need to buy it.
From what I read so far:
MEGA is the code name for this device, it should be oficcially called "HTC TOUCH2", not "HTC TOUCH PRO2". The latter sounds like a completely different device.
The normal edition should be T3333, T3320 is a low cost india edition without 3g, and without GPS. So I guess without a bluetooth connected GPS mouse you will not get GPS. Maybe through the GSM + Google location services you can get a rough location on google maps, but nowhere near accurate as necessary for navigation (needs GPS).
Sorry

I guess he was thinking about a bluetooth GPS mouse, not about the integrated GPS in the T3333 / Touch2 / MEGA.
Actually also Wifi and GSM can somehow be used to get a location, but not really accurate at all. Not comparable with GPS anyway, and not enough for navigation.

That is called A-GPS or assisted GPS. Can be useful in places with bad GPS signal as extra help.
thanks guys for the info...
By the way, anyone know which version of map is compatible with the TOMTOM 7.916? I found it was not able to recognize my map which worked fine in previous version of TOMTOM.
Thanks!
thankssss...

Is your map activated? Or do you have an old map? There are many maps which work with 7.916.......all have different codes for windows mobile use.....
As example I use Europe 845.2647
If tomtom gives the bttrayce error look here:

Hi, when I installed TomTom on my Touch2 and restarted my device there was an error with bluetooth.
Tom Tom works great but I don't have bluetooth anymore, so I can't connect to my carkit.
I removeed TomTom and my bluetooth worked 100%.

Yellowfever is right: your device T3320 does not have a gps (built-in) receiver, so you can't use tomtom nor sygic mobile without an external gps receiver(connected via bluetooth)!
