Official MDA II Carkit from T-Mobile Germany

Unfortunately I am not able to order it from their website, but after talking to Dutch T-Mobile they said it will be released soon in Holland too.
The amazing part is that it is complete with GPS receiver AND software for € 199,95 incl VAT. I asked what software and although not confirmed, but onofficially mentioned as TomTom.

I have just tried to order one, but their address format is different and I cannot get it to accept my addy
A bit of an update: Our company uses T-Mobile so I did some checking through them.
The MDA II will be onsale in the UK in April 2004, and the carkit will be available as well, however, T-Mobile UK could not confirm prices, nor could they confirm that you will get the GPS receiver/software in the UK Carkit as you do in the German version.
HTH
i am going to call the shop in germany where i bought the mda II when it just came out.
there where fast with getting the mda II
Just spoken to the XDA Product Manager for O2 UK and he has confirmed that the official carkit that T-Mobile have released in Germany will NOT be released by O2 in the UK. O2 have rejected it on quality and design grounds.
They WILL however be releasing (in about 3 weeks) a universal car kit that will incorporate a number of phone specific cups - the first being for the XDAII. It will not however have any inputs for GPS - this will be included in a future release.
Bummer isn't it? I thought it was really cool having the kit and GPS in one.

Australian TyTN II firmware upgrade

Hi I brought a HTC TyTN II a few weeks ago from an Australian supplier. The phone works great but when I try to install the “TOMTOM” navigation disk it says the ROM version is incorrect. I contacted HTS Australia, they say the unit is from Indonesia and so not supported here. Can anyone tell me where I can get an Australian ROM version? I am with Telstra for my mobile. I see lots of ROM versions on this site but not sure which one. ( sorry im new)
thanks
Tim
Yeah I'd like to get my hands on a current TyTN II rom for Australia.
I'm currently running Duttys latest rom which is working fine for the most part. I did have a small issue today where people on incoming calls couldnt hear me speak but a soft reset seems to have fixed that for now. Hope it doesnt come back
You can download it from http://www.asia.htc.com/Dopod_Aus/member/login.aspx You need to register with the serial number of an Australian phone to get access to the Australian ROMs. As far as I was aware the Australian (non branded TyTnII) phones ship with CoPilot and not TomTom. (At least mine did). So this may explain your TomTom issues.
Initially I flashed the Aust Hutch Three ROM to my phone but to be honest it really offers very little over the standard ROM other than the custom Three shortcuts which are easy enough to replace. I am with Three in Australia and very happily running Duttys Roms on my phone. I doubt flashing an Asutralian ROM will fix the TomTom isssue. I would be checking on its Authenticity and chasing it up with the supplier rather than HTC.
The Australian (non network branded) TyTn2's don't come with Tomtom taster, so an AU rom will not allow you to install Tomtom either... hope you didn't pay full AU retail price.
No Asian Tytn2 comes with Tomtom either AFAIK, even if it installs it will only give you a choice of US/Canada maps to download... making it useless.
Best bet is to buy Tomtom or another full version nav program. (and get onto whoever sold it to you asking why an "AU" phone would have the US nav taster (tomtom) bundled and not Copilot7 which is the official Australian bundled nav program.) If you got it from Ebay it is almost definately an asian grey market import... usually an SE Asia OEM phone (which have nothing bundled but Phone Backup, then some bad sellers include a useless US software disk to make it look more legit.)
I've got TomTom running on my TyTN II without a problem. All you have to do is go back one version to the .30 install and you wont have the rom issue. then you just need to copy all the maps and voices down to your storage card. I found the older version of TomTom on mininova.
Hi
My TyTN cam with Map King. I purchased TomTom as an option.
My ROM version is 1.82.707.0 WWE from 11/03/07, so its old. The phone has been working fine until i tried io install the Tomtom. I am also on the Telstra network. Thanks for the feedback so far.
regards

GPS navigation software/streetmaps for Mexico

Hi!
I am living in Mexico and especially as a foreigner it is very easy to get lost here.
So I am looking for a GPS navigation software for my new HTC Touch HD with street level maps for Puebla and other major cities in this country. Buying a seperate device just for GPS (like from Garmin) is not an option.
I did some web search with very confusing results. One product I found was Garming XT which is a no go for me since - as far as I understood - it only works with the provided SD card and I do not want to touch the battery cover every time I need swich the card for running the application.
Destinator 7 seems to have a new 2008 streetmap of Mexico but I have not found a store where to buy it - just some crappy mexican internet sites which don't look very professional and trustworty. There are also some reports of a version 8 of the software but no place to buy it.
It's unbelieveable but Mexico seems to be one of the last white spots on earth regarding GPS street level maps.
Can somebody who has more experience with this GPS stuff help me out with ideas, suggestions and/or probably links to serious stores, please?
Thanks a lot in advance.
I can't help out, but I'm looking for similar for our trip across Mexico at the end of this year.
Tomtom have just released their MExico Map
XT does have the provision to show (MapQuest?) maps of Mexico, but you can buy it as a download (I'm sure.)
If you find anything else, let me know!
Buena Suerte!

[Q] Navigon MobileNavigator 7 North America

Can anyone help me find Navigon MobileNavigator 7 North America? So far all the ones that I have found are either for Europe, or are listed wrong and are still for Europe. I have an HTC Touch Pro2 from Sprint. According to Navigon's website, their software is compatable on my phone, so that's not a problem at all. Please Help me guys. Thanks.

It's right on their website. It's for sale for $89USD. If you're asking where to get it for free, then you need to familiarize yourself with Google. Asking for warez is prohibited on XDA. Don't get yourself in trouble with the mods so soon. lol.

Which S3 Frontier Version Should I Buy?

Hi All
I am in the UK and am about to buy the S3 Frontier... but my question is this - there seems to be at least 3 variants that I can find mentioned on the web - UK / US / International. In the UK the price on the UK device is about $400 and the US version is $299. I can get the UK model from a high street shop or online... but I also see much cheaper version on eBay... as low as $250. I checked the part number of one of the eBay ones and it is SM-R760NDAAXAR. What I cant seem to find is a detailed comparison of the UK, US and International Version.
The information I can find is conflicting and some say that the US version is LTE - which I understand means that it has a hard wired SIM card inside so it can connect to the cellular network directly with no phone. I think the UK one doesn't have this feature... which TBH I am not worried about.
I have also read that if I buy the US version I wont be able to get Android Pay working, etc. I have also read that if I get the International version it will update to UK via software update when it syncs with my S7.
Can anyone tell me if there is any issues with buying an out-of-region device as its tempting because they are about half the price than on the high street here in the UK.
Thanks in advance
Slimat
You should be able to flash SM-R760NDAAXAR with UK firmware but I'm not sure if Samsung Pay will be active.
