HELP Please !! XDA11 with Tom-Tom & Memory Map

Hi All
Could someone please HELP,, (hope I am on the right Forum !!)
Have a XDA11 With Tom-Tom,, all works fine, not problems, However would like to run Memory Map as well,,
Have tom tom on the standard sd card, and m-Map on another 1G card,
M-map all loaded and working & can swap between system OK, but can not get a GPS input signal,,, Have tried Menu-GPS-Setup, but only get faults, such as Time out, or can not open port,,
Any one with any ideas, would be greatly appreciated
Regards

Did you check the memory map support forum:
http://www.memory-map.co.uk/board/index.php?showtopic=221
BTW: Thanks for naming this s/w here. Could you post some experience (maybe as compared to OziExplorer which does not function on a Himalaya (XDA2/MDAII) with BT GPS because of the MS Bt Stack)

Your best bet would be to post a question in Pocket GPS World
There are still issues with the TomTom GPS driver locking out other mapping apps- I think PGPS has a thread on this

afaik the TomTom GPS version 3.03 and above dont claim the GPS exclusively.
Pocket GPS World is a very good site with lots of answers (and some unanswered questions, so no guarantee)

Upgrading to bigstorage for the first time

When uograding to bigstorage for the first time the process can look daunting but fear not, even if, as mine did, it doesnt go as per the screen shots / directions it may still work. Mine did and with the following installed here is what i have ended up with.
SPV M500 / Magician with bigstorage
running are
intellidialier, voice id (extra from extended rom)
Installed are : --
Tomtom 5, Calligrapher, pocket breeze, pocket contact, avantgo, pocket music, and several other small aps not worth mentioning.
I the process went ok using my 1gb card until: ---
As the how-to says the rom size created relfects the size of your card so the rom i was working with was 1gb, I could not use the recommended hex editor with that file due to system resources, let me tell you when you are that far into the process and you cant open the rom it is very annoying. Thankfully there are several other hex editors out there that let you load files up to 4gb allowing for resources but unfortuntely neither my old xp laptop nor my media centre could still open it. I ended up using my powerbook G4 with HexEdit 1.1 which loaded the rom just fine for editing. All the rest went OK until the end of the flsh back to the phone where i got a failed message, after a soft reset it booted into the new rom with no problem.
I have to stress to you guys thinking about trying this, it IS worth it. I am so pleased with the results. After updating and setting up BT Activesync, mms, pop3 etc and with all aps running I have the following: -
Allocated 17.7MB Allocated: 29.70 MB
to use: 11.16MB to use : 14.75MB
Free: 6.55MB Free: 24.95MB
And that is in a running state with no restrictions.
Well done to the community for such good documentation and their desire to share information and allow us newbies to get the most out of these wonderful units.

Hello,
I hope I dont sound like an idiot, but what is a big storage rom?
I have heard it mentioned quite a few times in the forum. I have a Krome Spy ( analog of M500) from australia.
Thanks.

Nice to know that you were successful in upgrading to BigStorage. I've done it since the very beginning. My next step would be "nonentity's" File System Tweak.
@rohsek: please search this forum and you will find the answers you need.

With BIG Storage you convert your EXT-rom with operator brandings into extra internal Storage. You actually append about 20MB to the default 7MB Storage folder. Very nice hack.

COuld somebody tell me where I can find the HOW-TO described above??
Aren't there any standard ROMs?? It seems to me that when someone creates a specific ROM for a specific model, this ROM can be used in multiple devices or am I making you :lol: ROFLYAO :lol: by asking this question??
I've also got an Orange SPV M500 (with a huge memory shortage )...
Could someone please help me out??
Thanks in advance!!
Kind regards,
Maarten

There is no stupid question! Except, possibly, a question not asked… Don’t stop asking.
Hi junior dude,
Hehe, well as you can see I’m also pretty much a junior forum member, so you’re not alone on this amazing site. I’ll quickly try to answer your questions as thoroughly as possible.
1. The only radio that the pdal has is the radio that handles all of your calls and data connections so you’re already using it, it doesn’t have an actuall radio that can be used for listening to music. If listening to music is what you what to do then you basically have 2 choices, firstly you can call some toll free number after office hours to listen to their switch board music without them answering the phone or, secondly, you can download an application that you can use for listening music on the internet, it’s a bit more expensive than the first option but you can listen to music you actually enjoy. Just Google something like “pocket pc internet radio” and you’ll find a few resources on how to go about using the second option.
2. I searched around a bit and couldn’t find such an application. Although I think it might be possible, it’s not going to be easy. All of the music players that I’ve worked with will simply stop playing when you make or receive a call. On some of them you can even press play and it will continue but you won’t hear anything. The reason why I say that it might be possible is because one can hear sounds activated by notifications when busy with a call. Let me know when you find such an application.

By the way, your English is very understandable, no problem there at all.
Cheers mate

Clear, I Understand That Some Revisions Say That Acelerometro Brings, In Others They Say That Num. In Youtube Shows Videos Of The Rotation Of The Screen, But Partly I Would Like To Know If Somebody Installs Applications For The Use Of The Acelerometro, As The Games Of The Htc Diamond. If Somebody Confirms Me That I Will Be Very Happy, Thank You. Cordial Greetings.
