Anyone tried Tomtom7 on a tornado with WM6.1 Standard?
Curious to see if it work.
it works on my vox (s710), so probably will work on the tornado. problem is you don't have a touchscreen so you need a program like fakecursor to emulate the mouse.
Hi, were did you find Tomtom 7 for windows mobile please? I thought it wasn't available for PDAs...
[edit] Ok sorry, i found it!
also tried it on my tornado and it works. i took the files from ttnav_7.450.9028_repack3 found on the internet. The install-cab file doesn't work on the tornado, but i copied the TomTom Navigator.exe and data.chk file to program files\Navigator directory and made a shortcut in the startmenu myself.
So the program works, but you need to emulate the mouse to be able to use it. It is much like Navigator 6. But give it a try and see for yourself
sorry for the bad photo quality (taken with my s710)

Works the same on my brother's Tornado with WM6.5 Standard ENG OCOS 5.2.21234(Build21234.5.0.1)ver.1.0 Lite by Gregorys Rom.
I'm also working on a TomTom Launcher that looks for TomTom executable in device or storage card, allow to select screen rotation, fixes TomTom window moving to background (sometimes) and keeps screen alive during navigation. Hope to solve also Fake cursor issue when screen is in landscape mode (by a lightweight dpad hook). Exiting TomTom restores initial phone conditions.
It requires .net CF2, WMtequan.cab and TDM.cab installed first.

It worked on my startrek and pretty much works on tornado. I just need to reactivate the maps. I use the blue version- there's a link in the startrek forum.

I've got a Qtek 2020 with TomTom 5.21.
I also have a Dell Axim X51 with the same problem.
After installing TomTom via the .cab files the created Today-plugin doesn't work. Installing on this WM5 devices wasn't easy.
After tapping the today-plugin I get a beep from the device but TomTom doesn't start. It will only start via Program Files.
Anyone any idea?

The TomTom Today-Plugin just links to a startmenu-entry of TomTom. Make shure you have a "TomTom.lnk" in "\windows\Startmenu" and/or in "\windows\Startmenu\Programs". (If not - copy it to there)
It also maybe that the Plugin links to the "TomTom.exe " -> check the installation-path. Possibly you have it in "\Programs" and the Today-Plugins expects it in "\Programme"

I've been using Jwright's WM6 ROMs and they're terrific. I'd become accustomed to using true VGA in WM5, and while IE offers VGA, it's nothing compared to having the entire system run in 640x480 (96dpi) everywhere.
Has anyone enabled this? I did the registry change, but I don't have WM6 dll's put in for the 96 dpi (using the WM5 dlls would defeat the purpose of using WM6, right?).
If anyone is doing this, lets get some information going on it. If nobody is doing VGA, when do we think we can do this? Or how might I go about helping to make it a reality?
I used ozVGA with WM5 dlls, works fine.
The only purpose of 69-dpi dlls is icons, i suppose...
Is that a possibility? Can the WM5 dlls really be used as replacements here? Or is that like upgrading and then removing 1/2 of the new features?
Are there functional bits in these replaced dlls? Or are they truly icons only?
there is a package i made on the ftp that is allmost complete vga for wm6, it uses wm6 versions from qvga devices
Outstanding! Got a link or filename/path?
Here
Hope it works for you
Would be nice to skip the ozVGA necessity - I like to just have the dlls and set the registry myself... But at least now I've got it. Life is good.
Sweet
I tried these files and they are sweet, thanks
i just used d WM5 dll's & ozVGA. true VGA works as good as when i was on WM5.
nevertheless, i still downloaded Midget's cab file.
hi Midget. tnx 4 that. no need anymore 4 ozVGA w/ that cab file?
Nervous n00b Help?

My mobile T-mobile AMEO 5 inch screen is wasted without VGA which I had on my Dell Axim x51v. I had previously used www.nyditot.comvirtual Virtual Display with great success in Windows mobile 5 but they are not returning my e-mail about Windows mobile 6 support hence the reason of this question.
What are the benefits of using your cab is there a lower overhead etc than the full blown softwares like MvRTrueVGA or Virtual Display? Is there any risks running VGA apps on PDA’s OS’s?
Any thoughts appreciated

Real VGA by Tobias is better. You should try it. It comes with 96dpi and 128 dpi.
Hi folks,
first I had some troubles with using MortScript on WM6 Standard devices. Qtek 8500 works fine and supports all Ctrl shortcuts (Ctrl-A, Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V...) and Home/End... buttons. So all the scripts are working fine on WM5. Even WM6 Standard Emulator on PC is ok.
The problem is with real WM6 devices. So far, I have tested myself HTC S620, HTC S710 and Samsung Blackjack. The script wasnt working on any of these devices. Until today I tought it may be because of MortScript.
I have Freedom Universal Keyboard which supports BT HID (works without any driver). All the Ctrl shortcuts works perfectly on WM5 but there is the same problem with WM6.
What the hell is wrong? Why cant I press home button on my keyboard to go to the beginning of the line or select/copy text?
I am having the same problem with the i607 Blackjack. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Hi guys,
I've just installed Garmin XT for windows mobile , on a pcarvalho winmo 6.5 install. The GPS works fine, but I can't type using the onscreen keyboard in Garmin (wtf?).
I can type without any issues using the windows mobile onscreen keyboard (in SMS's and the like). But it just doesnt work in Garmin's software.
Anyone encountered this issue before?
*Major apologies for the mis-spelling in your nickname, pcarvalho =/
I am using Garmin XT for a while now, only because i have a normal Garmin GPS and lots of maps. However i found garmin XT nearly a complete failure because:
Traffic information if it works completely out of time (2 days)
so slow
But ok it took me 5 times installing it over and over again to get it working with no reason. So try again and good luck.
I am looking for something else now Igo or tomtom
