Touch Cruise & GPS - Touch Cruise General

Am I able to use other GPS programmes on "The Cruise"? Other than TomTom, that is.
Thanks
Brian

Yes it will run any GPS software for Pocket PC e.g Co-Pilot or Route 66

Yes,
Mine came pre-installed with CoPilot.
I installed a demo version of MemoryMap a few weeks ago.
And yesterday I installed a demo version of TomTom.
I'm also using GoogleMaps with full GPS integration.
I guess I like maps!
No problems to report

TT7 And Touch Pro

Hello,
I have i diamond but i want to bought a Touch PRO can you answer at this question :
Touch Pro with Tomtom7 is lag like diamond or not ?
thanks in advance.
@+++
tomtom 7 and diamond
I've got tomtom 7 up and running with no lag at all, but i know that the "wrong" version will be very laggish, så my advice get the diamond version that works!!!
Did you get TT7 working with TOMTOM Home 2.3? I tried, but my Touch Pro is not recognized as device. Without the device being listed, I cannot buy a map and load it to the TP...

Do a search in the kaiser section ... the answer is there somewhere. I know that when i installed TT7 on my Kaiser, i had to rename and move the installation folder. An error would still be reported by TT Home, however this could be ignored, and sync would then happen normally.
I have TT7 working fine and very fast on my Pro and on my Diamond - version 7.450.9028 with the official Diamond Maps purchased, downloaded and installed from tomtom.com - the Diamond Ver 7 maps are specifically designed for the VGA screen but actually take up less memory?
Also - both versions of TomTom home also work well but I preffer ver 2.3 as it was easier to add the extra's such as Map Styles, new voices and a car icons!
Hope that helps?

Bah... My Touch Pro didn't come with TomTom...
The touch pro does not have TT7, however you can get the cab from the kaiser forum. Maps can be purchased from Tom TOm - select the TOuch Diamond under map ugrade.
TT7 works great also on my Touch Pro (as long as no other programs are running, which preferably should be the case). Can't compare to TT7 on the Diamond though since I don't have one, but can only assume that the extra RAM on the Touch Pro could be making the difference here!??

tomtom 7 works okey and responds fine, however, comparing it with a tomtom one and for example passing a river, it seems to lag 50 meter behind, so you get the directions a little later then it should be
So this way you may mis an exit.

How have you managed to get maps downloaded to Touch pro.
I can't get TomTom Home to detect the touch pro, i have tried everything.
I only have the free london city map.
OK, TT7 and Touch Pro is killing me... I tried a number of things and I cannot get it to work with MapShare. The device never shows up in TOMTOM Home. So here are some specific questions:
Which version to install?
a) ttn7.cab (12351909 Bytes)
b) TT_Nav_7.450.9028_repack3-vga-black.cab (12348539 Bytes)
The Navigator folder should be moved to Program Files with following content?
contacts, itn, logging, microbrowser, sounds, voices, CurrentMap.dat, data.chk, navigator.cfg, TomTom Navigator.exe, ttnavigator.bif, UserPatch.dat
Is that correct?
The bif file has the following content:
[TomTom NAVIGATOR]

And a link needs to be in the StartMenu/Programs...
But all this did not work. Any suggestions?
Thanks

Make sure the tomtom app is installed under "navigator" and not "Intern guheugen". Create a new directory under root and copy all the files across. Tomtom Home should then recognise your device.
I have TomTom 6 on my Touch Pro and it works stonkingly well, no real difference in performance from my old Navman. I had to turn off "assisted GPS" in Schaps advanced config though cos it kept losing the signal every 5 seconds or so with it enabled.

That's just the point of this thread... I want MapShare to work so that I can purchase maps...
Still working on this one... It looks like the TOMTOM Home application is looking for the ttnavigator.bif on the device and once it finds it, the device is listed? Can someone confirm this? By just copying a ttgo.bif file to the root of a removabale media, this is being recognized by TTH as a device. And the older verion of TTH works with the TP having ttnavigator.bif in Program Files\Navigator. Any suggestions on how to solve this puzzle?
I have exactly the same problem - TOmTOm home does not see any device connected. Strange that i had no issues with this on my kaiser, yet i can't get it to work on the pro.

GPS Navigator that works with TP screen?

tommy is working just fine here
iGO8 is also working well. v8.0 as well as v8.3.
I had TomTom working on my Fuze but couldn't get maps. Garmin XT works well here in the states and since I already had the navigator software I bought to go with my handheld GS60, I'm good to go. I like the Garmin because you can plan routes and waypoints, etc on the PC then push them to the phone...
CoPilot Live 7 works fine on my Fuze right out of the box.

tom tom on td2

have a qeustion wil tomtom 6.030 work on touch diamond 2 because i have dis one all ready
i really hope its gonna work
tnx
hope somebody response
No, you'll need Tomtom 7, which you can get from this forum. Tomtom 7 does not work with your version 6 maps, so you'll have to purchase new maps. Yes it sucks. Also, you cannot move your Tomtom services, such as Traffic, over to your TD2. This is because Tomtom refuse to support the device.
Sorry for the bad news.
Personally, I'm so pissed off with Tomtom that I'm seriously considering using something else like IGo.
tom tom
yes i'am not gonna buy the tom tom 7 i'am really mad too
i have igo 8 also then i'm just gonna put that one on my td2
really tom tom sucks for not make tom tom 6 work on td2
thanks for your answer you really help me out

Hey all! On my phone it is that version that works perfectly! If there are problems with the voices, simply copy the voices folder on your memory card!

I got ttn7.915.9196.vga_black_yarda working here perfectly with with Western-Europe 830.2307. It came in my All-programs list and i added it myself to the "today"-screen with comes with your HTC.
Hello
Where should I put the voices folder?
When I start the tt7 they ask me to add a new card, then I go directly on the website to choose the card I download it but then where should I install it ?
Thank you
Voices goes in the root directory of the SD card. Same as the maps directory.
Latest tt7 bought from tt on 4GB microSD does'nt install nor work

How did you do it, man?
I bought the SD-Card TomTom 7 with Europe_1GB maps (825 built 2159) offered on TomTom's website since some weeks.
Neither install, manual install, TomTom Home nor something else works.
The extracted "TomTom Navigator.exe" and also the Home app 2.6 refused to support my O2 TDII device.
Then I installed 7.910.9185 black VGA, but I was only able to download one city map. My bought Europe maps are recogniced, but rejected when I select it through menu "maps change".
How can I make use of my Product code now? Or is there any chance at all?
Please help, or send me some hints by PM.

You have to make a shortcut to windows\startmenu\programs.
You can copy the file and paste it as a shortcut to the programs folder with explorer. If you don't like the name "Shortcut ..." you can rename the shortcut to whatever you like.
If you now look at your programs than you will see your shortcut. There is also the problem of the clipped voice. You can run any audio program except Media Player with a silent audio file, then the voice clipping is gone.
You can also search for the audio problem fix. Someone has made a cab file to fix al the problems in one installation.

Tomtom 6 'memory access violation' ideas wanted!
Had Tomtom 6 (fully legal) working fine on my Kaiser. On TD2/Topaz, whatever I do (soft,hard reset, load from different sources) I get the same 'Tomtom cannot start: memory access violation' msg. Internet search shows lots of people with same prob, but no answers or workarounds. Seems to me might be screen/display related as TT starts to load but with squashed format before hanging. Reluctant simply to buy TT7 in case a) that exhibits the same prob and TT specifically do not support the TD2/Topaz at the mo and b) some people seem to have got TT6 working fine on TD2.
Any ideas gratefully appreciated- might have to have a look at iGo as previous poster suggested, which is a shame as have used Tomtom since v2.
Thanks,
Tony

Although I haven't tried it myself I believe it is mainly a screen size issue, if you use the "WVGAFIX3_BY_Cotulla" http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=455974 and change the res TT6 will work.

Tomtom doesn't give any Resolution errors, so it should work for any resolution, but the Tomtom Version Tomtom 7.910
Tomtom 7.910 needs v 8.XXX maps, but you should be careful some map versions are only for PNAs ... You you should download the maps compatible with PDA or PDA&PNA
Tomtom is the best for Europe, but I do not like its simplicity, I like iGO 8.3.X Maps are updated monthly
Tomtom can not identify your device's com ports as well, for example, it may find your internal gps as a bluetooth gps, or viceversa.. So you should search for any kind of gps device in settings of tomtom in case if it does not recognize automatically

QVGA TT doesnt work on VGA or WVGA.
Maps are update continualy via map share.
TT identify COM ports without problems on all HTC devices or zou can set port manually.
any lag on tomtom?
On the videos looks like tomtom have a lag of 20 30 meters, and trying myself igo and copilot doesnt have lag at all, so, why use tomtom?
Guys here you'll find all latest TT. For sure on HD2 you should use VGA version:

I shared QVGA version of 7.910 on one web site, but before sharing I tried it on Htc HD, Htc Diamond, Htc Diamond 2, Htc TyTN II. So these resolutions are, QVGA, VGA, WVGA.
TT sometimes identify your Internal GPS as a bluetooth GPS, I say this information if some can not find their internal GPS, aim is to help to solve issues not to say bad things about TT.
If you have licensed version you may find correct maps, but ones that do not have should be careful to download maps that are compatible with PDA.
Regards.
Anyone has the same problem?
I've tried TT 7.910, 7.915 and 7.916, but all have a refresh lag.. So normally the screen (your position) is updated every second, but at my HD2 it updates in 5 or 7 seconds!
I've tried the internal GPS as wel the COM4 and 9600 baud GPS...
Google Maps works perfect (as far as I can see).
Don't know what to do about it.
Anyone?
Xmoo, The TomTom application works indeed but as soon as it starts it says it can't find any maps and then tries to make an internet connection in order to download maps at www.htc-citymaps but it then results in an error as the webpage doesn't exist.
How do you get TomTom to work with the maps and speech ?
Note: the installation CAB was 9 MB's hardly enough to conatin a full working navigation tool so it's clear that i'm missing data.
TT Maps n voices
black vga cab is 13.3MB - no voices, no maps no htc-citymaps - no joy....
Any help...anyone?

Best Australia GPS Navigation software for HD2

Hi there,
Can anyone suggest an Australia GPS Navigation software to be used on my Hong Kong Traditional Chinese version of HD2. I am going for a trip of 12 days in Australia so even a test or trial version software is okay.
Thanks in Advance.
garmin is good .. i like it !
I thought Garmin no longer makes GPS software for general WM market but only to Asus only, can we still get the software somewhere? If so, can you pm me the links?
Try iGO8 or Copilot 7 or 8. For iGO8 you should be able to download various maps, etc from PPCWarez.org. I have it on my Telstra HD2 and it works very nicely. I also have CoPilot 7 and this too works well. Good Luck
