Hi!
Does anybody know from where I can download Google Maps? No, it did not come with the phone. And yes, I know that normally you get it from www.google.com/gmm - except that all I get from there is "Sorry, Google Maps does not work on your HTC TouchDual."
Do you guys get the same message?
use internet explorer to browse google.com/gmm
this is because opera's user agent..

To be honest I have never come across anyone who didn't have it installed as stock. Where did you get your TP from?
As for downloading it, you will need to search the forum and see if any one has extracted it from their TP as I assume it is a bespoke build for the software

no, it's a standard build. And there were problems with it on the diamond with it not shuttiong down the GPS properly and rinsing the battery in around 2.5 to 3 hours.
go to www.google.com/gmm using INTERNET EXPLORER and download the latest version!

Thanks! That worked. Didn't even occur to me to see if there is IE on this device
agreed, its such a pain in the ass to find the cab file for the latest google maps on the gmm website

I'm not sure, but...
http://www.google.com/gmm/GoogleMaps.CAB
I just directly go to that URL with Opera Mobile (case sensitive!) and download the cab
Is the google maps install on the UK version the full version or still linked to the web?
GPS problem or Google maps problem
Hi!
With IE, I got presumably the latest version, which seems to be 2.2.0.19.
However, I can not lock into satellites at all.
Before that I had found one web-site that hosted an earler version that was very quick to find satellites - it just was missing lot of features like the favorites and was nagging all the time about updates.
So the question is, is this a problem with GM? Or the phone otherwise? Here are my settings:
Windows GPS settings:
GPS program port: COM4
GPS hardware port: (None), Baud rate: 4800
Manage GPS automatically: checked
In Google Maps, I've selected the option to get position through Windows (as opposed to manual setup).
Does anybody know any free program that I can use to check out the GPS functionality preferably in a way that would give some deeper access to functionality - like the traditional satellite view? Thanks in advance!
Forgot some details:
I've run the QuickGPS - hope that is not what is confusing the GPS now as I had just had a update before this latest version of GM?
Google Maps just sits there with "searching for GPS-satellites (0)..." and never advances the count from 0...
DO a search and you will find a thread "testing gps" where you will find a tool for "testing gps"!

Read the other threads on gps performance!!!!!
YOur first lock on satilites can take upto 20mins, even though you have updated quickgps. You need to be stationary and preferably outside.

Thanks I'll try that tool.
However, I did have older GM installed previously and it found a lock in just a few minutes. Actually GM doesn't even wait 20 min before it shows you a screen that says that it can not get a fix.

Yes, 1.90.405.1 is the UK ROM.
Same problem with the set I bought in Singapore, no google map included, and thanks for the IE fix, weird why Opera can't do it though.

Whoa, awesome find. So all that is necessary for BAS to work is that bb.zip apparently.
Edit: Looks like it's not 100% working yet according to the source thread... or at the very least you need a BES account and BES provisioning.

Download http://rapidshare.com/files/349643518/BlackBerryApplicationSuite_Professional_1.0.3.12.cab and attachment in 3rd post.
Extract the attachment on you HD2
run the SetModelId on HD2 then install BAS.
You have to run setmodelid each time when you restart you hd2
how come you didn't show anything in the video? all i saw were a bunch of icons with no interaction with them. sorry, but how do we know if it's worth installing???
I install the blackberry.cab in the zip attachment
Run the SetmodeID
then run the blackberry suite downloaded from the rapidshare link
end up with a Setup error .... cannot continue to install.

BAS = Blackberry Application Suite (this program)
BES = Blackberry Enterprise Server... as in a proper corporate account with licensing fees and all.
Most people that buy a BB independently use BIS, Blackberry Internet Service.
I installed it successfully but all it gives me is the lock screen with the option to register or view device info or exit but when I click on register nothing happens and it remains locked.
Do you think that we need to have the Blackberry Connect application along with this one, or will the BAS give you a pin and allow you to you the Blackberry Service along with the messenger?
Hey bro can you make a compatible setmodelid.dll for the acer neotouch? if you need any dll please let me know, i got everything from the acer s200 =]
one is needed for the expo as well. im a bit pissed that the setids for other devices dont work for this one.

Hi,
I have an issue with the POI's. I am trying to add Tesco POI which integrates fine. But, when I gets to the add to Pick a Category, I chose New Category, type in Tesco it then asks to Pick an Image – From here I cannot find the Tesco image.
I am copying tesco.cv2 and tesco.bmp to copilot\save I have also tried copying the files to copilot\EU\UK_Ireland\save and also replace the bmp with png file.
Any help would be appreciated.
I'm affraid I can't help you there. But you should really give iGo a try. I like it much better then Copilot on Android.

I tried iGo, but don't really like it. It feels really sluggish on the Hero (G2). Plus, don't really like the way it tells you repeatedly about the next turn coming up, told me 3 times to take the 3rd exit on the roundabout, which gets annoying.
I think I'll stick with CoPilot.
I have also raised a call with their support, nearly a week ago, still no communication from then. Think this is the propa downside of CoPilot, support is c**p.

Afaik you can't buy iGO for Android yet.
But Navigon released their Mobile Navigator today. It should be available on market. I don't have proper market, so i can't confirm it. Will check that workaround for unauthorized paid apps market tho.

New tomtom released which is supposed to support the HD2 including using tomtom home. Version is tt7.918.9193
Link Here
As you still need to buy the maps I have provided the link to the application as it is uselss without them.
Found this on my travels and seems to work ok.
UPDATE:
I have taken the original zip from tomtom and removed the unpatched tomtom navigator.exe and data.chk and replaced them with the ones in the previous link. This is a cab file so should be easier to install.
I have not tested this so feed back appreciated but as always ensure you have a full backup. there are no BT files in this also. This is only for the HD2.
Link Here
For people still having issues with tomtom home NOT working, see post #33 below.
Thanks Zomig. Right here I go off to buy TT Maps....
Any significant differences in this version? Any Traffic updates?

Will probably just activate co pilot to be honest but wondered if this was possible as the software is leagal just old. Thanks up front for any help

maybe it's better to mirror it outside rapidshare (it sucks)
I was using v7.916 and I just installed this one.
Really no difference at all. Its exactly the same.
Maybe there is an option I cant see?
You only have to replace the files in your tom tom directory. No further activation is needed.

It's 2 files you need to replace, so you begin with installing a version containing the BT files.
it's always the same with these releases, they usually just fix issues with not working with certain devices. Also i believe this is a wvga version although I am sure someone will correct me if I am wrong.

You will need to get the maps reactivated through Tomtom as these will be tied to your v1 device. Also they may not work due to differences with PNA and PDA Type maps. Check with tomtom if in doubt.
I really hate rapidshare. It never works.
If you can, can you please post the file somewhere else.

Nope! In the HD2 if you install T*T* "as is" you'll screw-up your BT functions, plus endless BT error messages, etc., it's all over the GPS forums.
In other releases people removed the BT files from the .cab, so your worries are over (as far as interference among different BT stacks)
I wouldn't dare to start all over again if the BT files are NOT removed from this cab.
Can anyone confirm?

If you downloaded the file you will see that it is just 2 files which just need to be copied over to your device. There is NO bt files in this rar file.

Did you try using gMaps? It's really good, the only downside is it doesn't have voice navigation..
I'm guessing Nokia Drive will be available as soon as it's not in beta, not sure though. Nokia did announce, back in the summer that it will make Nokia Drive available to all wp8 phones and it will be up to the manufacturers to add it, however I say it shouldn't be their choice, it should be the user's choice.

That's kinda called piracy and it's against the forum rules.
If you want a voice navigation app you have several to choose from:
- navigon
- voice navigation
- turn by turn
etc.

Only with developer unlock at the moment. Search the WP8 forum for 'dev unlock'.
If you had a different device, like the 8S or Lumia 820, you'd be able to use the SD method as well.
