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 ;-)
greets from frankfurt / germany

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.
I have bought a Falcom Navi 1 BT GPS receiver to use with my xda2 (O2 rom 1.72.187) and Destinator 3. I have also downloaded the Dell axim bt patch and have set it to COM 0. When opening the Destinator sometimes the GPS is found, but most of the times it is not! The receiver is correctly set in the Destinator program at com 0. Anyone had this sort of problems before?
BTW, I have also tried the old Bluetooth tools as well with no result.
please help.
GPS Gate
Hi I have experienced the same problems with Falcom Navi 1 BT GPS and HandyMap 2004. My solution was GPSGate from www.franson.biz
Hope this helps

Kind regards
GPSGate didn't work either. Also tried the pocket bluetooth tools, but this sets the bt gps at com7 which Destinator does not see. Any more ideas guys?
I can strongly reccomend upgrading to WM2005 it works like a charm
I have recently installed Tom Tom Navigator 3 on my XDAII but whenever the telephone software is switched on, i.e flight mode off, the thing crashes and needs re-booting very frequently and every time a call or text is received. I have updated the software for the XDAII and for Tom Tom but without success. The only way Tom Tom will work is with the flight mode on which means no calls. Has anybody else experienced this and found a solution.
I use an XDAII, TTN3 and a BT GPS daily without any issues. What GPS have you got and what SD Card?
Depends on what version of TTN3 you have. If you have a fully purchased one you will be able to download and install 3.07 which removes these kind of problems - 3.07 I believe specifically cures those issues.
If you have an....ahem...acquired....version of the program, you may experience problems. I also have a BT GPS but don't generally experience any probs apart from the old "showPOIequalslockups".
Cheers

Tom Tom and XDAII
I'm using Tom Tom 3.0.7 and a Tom Tom GPS receiver.
gps settings for easiest use are tomtom wireless gps comport =bluetooth gps
Hi I was wondering if there was anything I could do about the fact that everytime I turn tomtom on the bluetooth turns on as well. It seems like a waste of battery power, considering that tomtom uses an internal GPS! Could anyone advice?
Kind Regards,
Will
BT & TomTom
Mine doesn't!
Make sure you have Other NMEA Gps and Com4 selected.
Cheers
Neil

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.

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%.
somebody has a solution for this???

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)!
