Wrong forum! Just do a quick forum search and you will find a full thread on tomtom on the kaiser. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=330235 try that thread
Beat by a whole 2 minutes...

I use garmin XT and it does not require data connection to work. Most GPS programs should be the same. I have tried Tom Tom, MioMap, IGO and non needed data connection. Google Maps does require a data connection.

Closed.
In the future post non-developmental issues in the General forum AFTER searching & checking the wiki.

New to forum... would appreciate any guidance

hello all, i read the basics and trying to get my feet wet. for starters i tried setting up a profile with my info but non of my versions are on drop down lists.
i have:
siemens sx66
rom 1.33.10
radio1.02.10 (what does it do to update radio? i search for explanations but no luck)
extrom v. 1.33.110
model ph20b1
should i just enter all this in my signature?
please advise.
In the profile you can only choice from 2 devices its a limmatation of the system, most of us use the signature to pass on that info.
You have a BA and wiki is strong on the BA.
learning slowly
thanks for the response, i thought about that last night and came to that conclusion. i posted a few other things and hopefully in a relevant forum.
i continue to read how to's hopefully something will get through my thick skull.
i was going to try a radio update since it seams i can do the least harm with that one. that ok for tutorial type walk through?
i saw there is a 1.15 available.
i have no personal info on mine yet, just received it.
would it be worth while going to wm 5.0?
i was going to try to stay with 2003 for speed purposes.
thank you again for assistance, have a great day
woody
And remember the Golden Rule:
Always use the search function before asking anything.
And
Always post the links to spam in "trash"
yea, i got the main rules down, but...
that doesn't mean i have enough knowledge to know if i am posting something in the appropriate area. i'm a fairly consciencious user but with as little knowledge as i have it's a dangerous thing.
thank you all again for the help/advice/experience
gonna do my best not to get on anyone's last nerve
have a great day,

Hi Woodalia!
First, welcome to the forum!
Second, don't worry too much, if you post by mistake n the wrong place people will forgive you. Just try not to post same thing in multiple forums.
As for switching form 2003 to WM5 there are a few points to consider:
1. Speed, you already know about. It might be worth waiting for a while I think there will be improvements on the issue in the future.
2. Features such as A2DP, push mail, better office apps. If you don't need those don't bother with the upgrade.
3. ActiveSync, wile you have WM2003 you can sync with versions 3.7 / 3.8 which has sync over wifi option and seems to connect a bit faster then 4.1 (no network search)
I recommend you search the BA forum for people who upgraded and can report any problems / bugs. Every update fixes some issues but creates others.
Good luck.

Hey guys, just joined up with this forum. I just purchased the ATT 8525 today and hopefully it will be here in a few days. Is there anything that i should know more about this phone, besides specs and stuff? Anything that i should do when i get the phone? Any advice will be good.
Thanks
Welcome to xda! There is a wealth of information here for your phone. Before your next post:
1. Read the sticky at the top of the Hermes section regarding posting (trust me its for your own good)
2. Get VERY familiar with this section of the site:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Hermes
If I were you I would spend some serious time reading through the forums before you decide to do anything to your phone. It will definitiely help you in the long run. Good Luck!
hi and welcome
i'm not as familiar with the unit you have but i think it's also known as wizard....guyz, please feel free to correct me if i'm wrong here... but in any case, scroll down the main forum page and you should see the section dedicated to the wizard. from there you can browse around and check the extremely useful list of topics for the device.
cheers
No..see my signature. The 8525 is a Hermes. I have the same phone.
norwstman30, welcome to xda-devs!!!
please, please, please, please, search and read! everything you will run into IS on this forum and posting a question of what to do when your 8525 (hermes) freezes or drops calls.. etc will annoy the rest of us. The wiki has all you need to know, welcome to owning a great device!
i own the imate jasjam which is the same as the 8525 except its black and has a camera on the front. I'm on at&t aswell in austin, texas... hook 'em horns!
Hey, just joined, purchased the Softbank X01HT, and the person previously installed the english pack. Will definately read through the wiki first.
Just wanted to say hi!

please help the newbie!!!!

I have a Qtek 9100 with wm5, when I start it up it reads:
Ipl 2.17.0001
Spl 2.17.0001
Gsm 02.07.10
Os 2.17.7.2
I would like to upgrade it to WM6 and maybe add some of the new features of the HTC touch. I love the wizard and refuse to give up the keyboard but would like to have some of the functionality of the touch. I can hack a pc just fine but have never messed around on a mobile before. I do not want to brick this thing. I have PHM registry editor installed on my wizard. I was hoping someone had a clear cut answer on how to upgrade my device to WM6 and install some cool apps along the way. I love reading the many posts on this great site, I have learned alot. If anyone can help out this newbie I would be forever grateful.

more questions
Thanks for the reply, I have determined that I have G4 unlocked model. Now the next question that I have is do I need to upgrade my existing rom before installing a WM6 rom. If not do you have any suggestions on which WM6 rom to install?
Did you mean CID Unlocked G4? If you are not sure then look for shell tool and follow some others in G4 forum.
I checked and it is CID unlocked, so my next question is which WM6 rom should I use? Does anyone know if the new "touch" applications will work on a g4 model? I have searched through the G4 postings and I have not found anything on this.
My idea

I think NBD 7.4 is the best WM6 "touched" rom...
But I don't know if it's working on G4 wiz....

G3 and G4 have nothing different apart from the boot chip. So it should work (I may be wrong but you can safely give a try).

Read the wiki
Don't remember who shared this, but I thought it would be appropriate here:
The members of this forum are advanced users, and they are expecting this from other members too. Thus if you don't want to lose your face in front of the other members, I suggest you try to solve your problems yourself first, and then search on this forum and even on the whole internet, and if then you still couldn't solve your problem, the link 'Post reply' or the link 'New thread' on this forum are there for you...So you will be sure that the problem you couldn't solve, isn't just something explained before and other members of this forum won't laugh at you...
The members with very high post count will not always be able to help you out in the best way...It is very easy to post hundreds of replies every day, but it's much harder to post so many useful replies! Sometimes you will see a thread becoming very long, thanks to some users willing to thank someone over hundreds of time. Of course, it is very polite to thank someone that helped you out, but you will see that all those thank you and other useless post are making it very hard for you and other members to find the posts that really will help you out of your little problem...So, an other suggestion for you is that you only post what really matters, that way, you will very soon be so popular in this forum and on any other forum that you might get famous by a lot of people and a lot of people might even remember you every time they are using their Pocket PC...wouldn't that be great??!
So, now you got a little introduction to this forum I'm sure you will find out your way and make it to the 'Search' button just on top of every page on this forum. Then, a new world will open for you, you will be able to find tons of information, more than ten or twenty thread are just on the subject what you where asking for and you will see that while you are searching, you will very soon get a little frustrated to find more than ten times exactly the same instructions to solve your problem. I am sure, very soon we will see some replies from you asking other members to just use that little search link before posting a question that was solved ten times before on this forum...
Have a nice day, we hope you will be able to help us out too if we got some problem that you might be able to solve!!

GPS Lag related

Hi Guys,
I have a Vodafone branded Touch Pro. I recently got Tomtom 7 maps and installed them on the TP. I realised there was a serious mismatch with the position on the map vis-a-vis my physical position. I thought it could be a problem with Tomtom. So I tried Googlemaps and Windows Live Maps - again the same problem. Then I did something which I should have done earlier go through the xda forum and I found out that this is known issue.
So I called up HTC UK customer support and after explaining the whole problem to the lady, I was told that this is an issue with Tomtom and not the handset. So I tried explaining to her that its the same thing with Googlemaps and Windows Live maps. She kept on insisting that I contact Tomtom.
I am quite surprised at their attitude. Anybody else had a similar experience?
Vin
Did you read the rest of the threads of Raphael where we talk about this issue millions of times??????
Before opening new threads read the ****ing ones that exist.
Sorry, I thought I was posting in that area, no idea how I managed to start a new thread.
I apologise.

fm radio problem please help

i have a sprint tp2 with energy leo rom and im in australia.i cant get the radio to work, it cannot find any stations. there are lots around me and ive stood everywhere holding the headphones in the air but not a singel sign of a signal. if anyone has any suggestions on how to fix this please let me know
Thats because it has never worked for the cdma touch pro 2. I think it's missing something. It has the program but the hard ware is disabled or something.
Don't start another thread about this!!!
Please search XDA and PPCGeeks. This is a MUCH talked about problem with the TP2 (CDMA) and FM radio -- DON'T START ANOTHER THREAD ABOUT THIS!

I have manners. You don't know how to search!
Like I said, there are a TON of threads about this problem already.
People are working VERY HARD on trying to find a way to fix this (me being one of them) -- don't irritate them by asking the same question that someone already asked AGES AGO IN NUMEROUS THREADS.
defaultdotxbe's response is priceless: "Let me Google that for you" - I love it.
FWIW... I put "touch pro2" cdma "FM radio" into Google and it came up with TEN PAGES OF RESULTS.
BTW... I'm not an angry person. "There are no stupid questions - only stupid people".
