Question to all Tomtom Users - Touch Pro, Fuze General

Hi.
I have just installed Tomtom (vga-version) on my Touch Pro and found, that when trying to enter an Adress with the slide-out Keyoboard an aditional character is added after each pressed button. This Means: i press "a" and "a°a" appears on the screen.
Does anyone else have the same problem or maybe found a solution?

Never noticed that problem before. Using last version of TT7. Maybe a rom issue with the keyboard driver.
Usually I'm using the soft keyboard of TT7

This is also happening to me, stock WWE updated ROM with TTN7 7.915. This is soooo lame!

I can also confirm that this is happening to me with TT 7.915. I'm not completely sure, but I don't think it happened to me with TT 7.910

Do you all use the vga-version? I think it did not happen with the not-vga version that was preinstalled on my device.

I tried with 910 and 915, and I still get this issue :-/

Its hapening to me also. im using TT7.450 (VGA)
Buts not a problem to me. Tomtom is very fingerfriendly and it goes very smooth.

On a slightly different issue, what sort of refresh rate are you getting on TomTom in terms of map redraws per second? I'd guess I'm only getting one, maybe two, but I've seen Sleuth's video, and he looks to be getting 3 or 4.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Steve.

I also have this issue, although I never use the keyboard while navigating. If you didn't mention it I would have probably never noticed it! LOL

@maw: Well I bought a PDA-holder for my car which holds the Touch pro with the open keyboard, since I thought, that it would be really cool (which it is if it wasn't for the keyboard not working properly in tomtom)
@StevePritchard: I am not sure, but I think I get about 1-3 fps in Tomtom.

did you upgrade your ROM and noticed this problem? As I never used the keyboard with the previous stock ROM I can't say if the ROM upgrade effected the Tomtom interface with the keyboard. I updated my stock ROM with the new version that just came out. Maybe that is the problem, I don't really know.... Very good of you to signal this problem though. Otherwise I don't think this problem can be fixed, I guess we'll just have to wait on a new version of Tomtom to fix this problem. Have you reported it to Tomtom?

no I did not upgrade. I didn't even know, that there is an available update. I am running the stock rom (from o2 germany) that came shipped with the phone.
Is there an update from htc?
No, I did not report, since my Version fell from a truck... I was just wondering whether it was damaged during the fall or if everyone has this problem. ;-)

Its a TomTom error, the newer TT versions dont have that problem.

I used to get this when running Elite RC2 - I moved to ROMeOS and never had the problem

What do you mean by newer versions? I use 7.915 - Is there anything more recent?

I'm getting the same problem, and I've got 7.915 as well. No-one found a solution then?

i had this problem on 3 different versions of tomtom, along with hit or miss signal. it always thinks im inside a building but in the 1/20 shot it works i cant do anything or else "im inside a building" again. i just dont think tomtom was meant for the fuse

It is not a TOMTOM issue. It is an issue with the IME. Here is the fix.
I have attached KforTouchPro_v1.0.0.3.CAB
1. Install the cab
2. It installs to your games folder because this is a fix for several games that have had this issue (I originally discovered it because I had issues using the HW keyboard with logmein)
3. click the Switch to M$ IME button. Now you are good to go!

Thanks - I have just tried it, and TT now works fine.
The problem now is, that other things don't work anymore... I tried writing an E-Mail and it wouldn't let me abort the mail. It displayed the Messageboc, but did not accept any input. Since I write more Mails than I use TT and don't like to keep on switching Keyboard map I is not a real option.
Do you have any Idea?

Hmm.. odd, when I updated my TomTom it just disappered, I have your version aswell, good that there is a update though for you
that K for touch pro, is that KforRaphael that maps certain keys for MorphGear?
I had that installed, but cant recall if it was erroring before that, anyways, good it got solved

[Public Beta] Crossbow Reloaded 1.7.1

Ok, I'm posting this in its own thread as people seem to have missed my post earlier today as it got buried in the Crossbow Reloaded 1.7 thread:
I've uploaded a test rebuild (couldn't sleep last night and was up early this morning). This is version 1.7.1 . The differences to 1.7 are:
A lot of the compression I did in 1.7 has been removed
Adobe Reader Removed due to the compression on other things making the rom too big
AltTab added and is mapped to the Comm key (this should fix the problem with Voice command people complained about).
Now built with the Core Kitchen
A few other things that I don't remember now
People that have had the dialpad issues in the 1.7 release are what this is really aimed at. If 1.7 was working for you, then stick with that version (unless you need to have a flash "fix" ). I've flashed 1.7.1 to my phone and so far it seems fine, but I really haven't tested it much, so consider this a public Beta. [Edit... Been on my device all day today and so far no issues that I've seen, but then 1.7 was fine for me too...]
I reserve the right to pull this off of RapidShare if I find something I don't like or if others find the keypad issue still exists (I'll post if I do this). Please do NOT MIRROR this without my permission as this is NOT an official release but one I'm trying to see if it fixes the issues with 1.7 that some have had.
Download Link:
Crossbow Reloaded 1.7.1
Please post feedback in this thread. I want to see if the keypad issue is gone now (mainly).
.
The new version is brilliant. I'm loving it so far.
Thanks man.
Does it Have Pocket Outlook?
If it doesn't how do I add it back. Ta, Rin.
Wise choice with the kitchen lol
Thx for mentioning. It makes me proud to hear/read that
I hope it didn't gave you any more trouble.
Did you already started to modify it not to use default install ? Cos if you didn't i'd suggest to wait a day at most ..i am trying to rebuild it. That thing bothers me too.
Running smooth!
I really liked the reloaded 1.5, was running the reloaded 1.7 version, liked it a lot exept the comm button and some OS stalls.
Flashing the 1.7.1 version now and will let you know how it's going in this threath. Also curiuos how the core kitchen is doing
After 30 minutes flashing I killed the shelltool. Since the phone seems stuck I gave it a soft reset and it booted with WM6 splash screen referring to farias rom. Gave it a factory reset and it seems working. Don't have acrobat so I asume it's the 1.7.1 version. Will start working on it now.
Weatherpanel, cybercom voice dialing, tomtom all running smooth. Some little tweaks (I changed under HKLM\SoftwareMicrosoft\Bluetooth\A2DP\Settings the key "Bitpool" and MaxSupportedBitPool to "40" decimal for my Jabra 620) and no problems sofar. Now do some VOIP settings. It never worked, now it's time to get it working on my private asterisk
Ok, working on with the new Beta rom I had some stalls (Three). Green light blinking only no responsive power button. After a reset I repeated my actions before the stalls only I couldn't reproduce it. Since about twelve hours of usage no problems
Mirror the download, please
Can someone mirror the download to some where else? Rapidshare is SUCK.
Flashed it 30 minutes age, installing soft right now, and everything seems to be ok. I had problems with dial pad in 1.7, but in this its ok. Will post in case of any issues
A new 100mbit mirror

Thanks for that mirror, but nobody else mirror this for now. I'll wait a day or so for reports of problems then decide if its the final version.
If you flash this and it works fine, please post that. If there are problems with the rom, please post those.
testing new version... no probls found...
Same here, just flashed it and testing now. So far the dialpad issue looks to be resolved. Not certain yet, will post problems that occur.
Nice rom
fast and easy to use
BUT...
I think i have a pb with my battery
lose 5% by hour ... is it normal?
ps : but all is perfect
I just had time to come back to XDA since I loaded CBR 1.5.
I have had the dialpad issues in 1.5 and thought it was just additional software I added. The device didn't lock up and all other functions worked.
The solution I found that worked was to pull the battery for one minute, then do a soft reset once it booted up.
Will load 1.7.1 tonight.
Thanks and keep up the good work!!!

You had dialpad issues with 1.5??? Nobody has ever reported that (that I remember), and 1.7.1 is directly built off of 1.5 (thats before I used compression or anything. 1.7.1 does use compression on a few things, but very minimal compared to what I did with 1.7). While there were definetly dial pad issues in 1.7, I think if you did have dialpad issues in 1.5, it truely was due to 3rd party apps, or tweaks on your phone.
Please report back how 1.7.1 works for you. Overall I'm happy with it, but I felt 1.7 was actually a faster rom than this one (there are times this one feels slightly slugish in places and I may have to turn on overclocking (where I never considered overclocking 1.7)).
So far 1.7.1 is looking good (but so did 1.7 for about 24 hours). I may make this an official release as is if I don't hear anything before tomorrow evening.

I am running version 1.7 but the battery life on this build is superb. Today I only made one call, left push E-Mail on a turned WiFi on and off a few times. After 13 hours I was down to 98% ! This is with a one month old battery.
How old is your battery ? Mine started to fail after 14 months.
i have not had any problems yet. It's great! will let you know a few days if I ran into any problems.
Voice command issue is it gone?
Hi mfrazzz,
Thanks again for another new version.In the previous version I reported one issue with voice command. Is that resolved in this version.
Issue was the voice command could not be activated using bluetooth headset. I have seen the keypad issue in 1.7 and sometime few error messages as well.

There was no issue with Voice Command and BlueTooth headset in 1.7 that I know of. I have a Plantronics Voyager 510 BT headset and a Bluespoon Spider stereo (A2DP) BT headset, and both pair up fine, and both control Voice Command fine for me. I know others using 1.7 and BT headsets worked fine with Voice Command for them also. It could be an issue with your headset and WM6, 3rd party software, or something else.
The only Voice Command issue I know of in 1.7 was that there was a button mapped by default that wouldn't work properly. I fixed that so that the Voice button (Button 4, upper right side of phone) now maps to AltTab app. AFter you install Voice Command it will map to your Messages button (button 1), but thats how Microsoft installs it, not my doing. You can then redo the buttons in Settings > Buttons and you are good to go (although I really like AltTab now, so I left it on Button 4 and only use Voice Command via my BT headset).
i had problems with 1.7...in that i the dialpad keys disappeared after first flash. i did a clear storage (1234, etc) and the dialpad came up. flashed this version (downgraded to official t-mobile 2.26, as I always do first) and i don't seem to have the same problem. everything was in working order the first time around. the rom actually feels a bit faster than 1.7. thx.

I don't want to eat your time... but my iGo still not work. I don't have HTC Home active... I tried even to enable and after that disable this function, but... no result...

And If you have more questions maybe put it in the relevant thread. HERE
Also I think you may have a burned up GPS chip. Try a different GPS program. GPSTest or something. But It would be better if you posted in the Thread that deals with Problems in the rom you are using.
two suggestions:
first: see if u have a-gps enabled. if so: disable and try again
second: try another rom... find one that's best for you.
i dont see how htc home plugin can affect this because i tested all possible combinations w&w/o it enabled and nothing changed. I had the same issue, igo freezing with dutty's wm 6.1 ROM when configuring and turning off assisted gps helped, as stated above.
My GPS worked fine with iGo until I changed the ROM (I had Dutty's ROM nr. 4). And that link that you give me, Jimmy, is related to HTC Home. I don't use it, like I said before.
Help please...
Still no answer... any ideea? Thanks

I'm not sure it's a ROM problem. iGo 6 itelf seems to have a problem dealing with AGPS. Mine also freezes after a while if AGPS is turned on.
I just leave it off and everything seems to work fine.
/drt
one thing i did was turning off the igo today plugin..and reboot..that should partially remove the conflict..
There are actually three different kinds of iGo problems I've seen with the various ROMs I've tried:
- Installation won't complete. Often, iGo will run anyway if you just do a soft reset when the installation halts. Often it won't.
- iGo runs, but once configured to find the GPS COM port, it hangs and hangs every time it starts after that. It may be related to AGPS, but I've seen this in ROMs that do not have that enabled by default. Also, I have no data plan and, as a result, no data connection with the tower.
- iGo installs, but won't start at all. Trying to start it results in a little screen opening animation, but nothing appears. The device is sluggish for a moment, then it's as if you never attempted to start it at all. This is the problem I have with Dutty's latest ROM. This almost certainly not related to AGPS since iGo has no GPS configuration immediately after installation. I don't believe it is related to the HTC Home plugin, since iGo runs fine for me on the AT&T test ROM, and it has the plugin.

This is definitely a conflict with the music tab of HTC Home, but only on some 6.1 ROMs (curiously not build 716 though). This problem doesn't occur in any 6.0 ROMs that I know of. It's not the plugin per se, but some component of the Today screen configuration that's causing the problem.

Is it sufficient to uncheck the plugin in the Today configuration and soft reset or is something more drastic required to resolve the conflict? The instructions linked to in an earlier posting seemed more like a series of black magic steps that happened to work.

TomTom 7.915 (9196) works on smartphones

It seems that with this new build of TomTom 7 smartphones are supported now !!!
The problem with earlier releases was that you couldn't scroll down to select the second, third etc line. This now works. Great news. but...
I installed it on a HTC Tornado (qtek 8310) and it works fine. The problem on the S710 is again the backlight going off after a while. Dit anyone try this new version already and do you have the same problem with the backlight?
I know there was a program called Kahuna TTn6 Focufix.cab to keep the focus on the program. maybe this works? I will try to find this program and see if it helps. Maybe we have to modify the key HKCU\Control Panel\Power\Display again?
I hope some of you can help me find a sollution, so we all can use the newest TomTom version on our Vox !
I found the TTn6 Focufix.cab, but this doesn't work.
I did find a workaround: I set the display time-out when on ac power to never. This works. So when I am in the car the battery is charged and the display stays on.
TomTom 7.915 on Fireburner custom ROM 1.0
I am using TomTom 7.915 since I install the custom ROM from fireburner.
This release works on S710 but with same limitation/problem, but you can select the different icon of the menu without any problem. The navigation can be vertical with the phone close, or horizontal if you have the keyboard open.
These are the Four main problem I have found, and the solution I have use to work around:
1. Backlight going off. When I am using it I plug the phone with the power supply, otherwise battery go away immediately after you arrive at destination or when you are close to it. I solve this problem in the "Settings"+"power Management", and select "never" in "Display time out on AC"
2. Backlight always on after use TomTom. I run an application free that you can download from http://www.tgmaker.com/mobile/
3. Input a destination. The two keyboard of the S710 works, but only with number when present. I means that with the number keyboard TomTom take only the numbers, and with the Qwerty will take the letter if they are alone and the numbers if on the key have both. Same problem was in Opera mini, and you can solve in the menu settings.
Sol. A
I solve this problem saving a contact with the address, and select the destination to contact.
Sol. B
You can browse all the city and the street, you must have a lot of time, or if you know the ZIP code the search became faster.
Sol. C
Fakecursor works but are more the disadvantage that the benefits. When you run it you can use only it, and all the shortcuts with the keyboard doesn't work. I prefer plan the destination and recall them after.
4. Selection: When in the display you have only two possibility there are no problem, but when they are more, the option in the middle are difficult to select. I have find the possibility to select using shift+same key, but I found it very uncomfortable.
Now a challenge to the expert!!
My colleagues use TomTom 7.915 on Experia X1, and you can select all the function using only the keyboard. I have seen also a Touch Pro working very fine with it. The two device have different layout (4 and 5 lines) and the software is working perfectly. I was thinking that most probably TomTom call some driver install on the device for the keyboard layout and allow the software to run properly. My device have a fb custom ROM, and I have a stupid idea which maybe work! If we save the driver of the S710 with the same name of the driver TomTom is looking for the layout keyboard, may be we can use both the keyboard.
I know is a strange idea, but I cannot test since I don't know which driver TomTom is looking for when start up.
Bye
are you sure of number 2? I know that tomtom mobile 5 makes the reg key value HKCU\Control panel\Power\Display if it doesn't exist and set the value to 0 after closing tomtom. I don't think tomtom 7 has the same behaviour. Can you try removing the Display value and see if tomtom 7 creates it again.
number3: I didn't have this experience. I do use another rom. Maybe it has to do with enabling the T9 setting of the keyboard? I can use the number keyboard to make letters and select the right city and street.
number 4: good point. I hope somebody knows this
did some more tests just to be sure:
1. problem is the display goes out after a while. workaround is to set the display timeout in the poweroptions to never when on ac power.
2. tomtom7 doesn't make the value Display after closing, so the ptoblem doesn't exist. (there may be other programs that cause this problem, but it is not related to tomtom7)
3. when using the number-keypad all works fine. when using the full-keyboard there is a problem with the keys also used for numbers (like E R T Y). you get numbers when pressing these keys... I like the idea of whanging the keyboard-layout/driver somehow...
4. I don't really understand what you mean. selecting what?

Dear walram
I am sorry but I discover that I was running the TTN7.910.9185_vga_black for the Diamond.
I download the new version and I confirm that is working on S710.
1. Ok I have done the same
2. You are right for this point, no need tools for the backlight.
3. Number-keypad all works fine in this version, problem with the qwerty keyboard is still present.
4. In version 9196 the graphic is totally different, in not just a matter of resolution and I believe was developed for specific device. If you press center key pad 6+5 you can see the version of Tomtom , and you have 3 possibility
- copyrigth
- account
- done
I am not able to select Account.
During the installation I was not able to select the correct com port, since look like the cursor was not enable to move, or this version was designed for COM9. I copy the *.exe and *.chk file on the old installation and is fine.
I believe that this version take out from the lolite is the most suitable for the s710. Then finally for who love TomTom, at least they should try it, since interface is almost the same of 5.2 for SP and the overall function looks ok.
If I found bugs or problem I will post later in this section.
Bye
i see what you mean with point 4. I don;t know a sollution for that, but i think you don't really need it for daily use. i could select the right com-port (com 6). installed it on 5 devices already, no problem.
the only bug i found so far is when starting the demo for a route the buttons are switched. so the "ok" and "cancel" are switched. just that you know...
it would be nice if somebody can fix the full-keyboard layout problem... it seems a problem with the s710?
it would also be nice if somebody can write a simple program that creates the registry key to keep the display on when the program is running, and delete the key when tomtom is closed. anybody?
i could select the right com-port (com 6). installed it on 5 devices already, no problem.

I'm NOT a big fan of TOM TOM but I've tried for the first time to figure out this problem and so far I totally agree with Dom_LC
COM selection is locked IMHO. I've tried to edit navigator.cfg to use COM7.... DONE...but it was useless
then I tried to add COM9 to my Bluetooth outgoing ports...it was selectable but obviously the system was unable to create the port.
I tried also to mix data file with the exe to see wath's what ...useless.
Tried fakecursor and eCursor...they worked everywhere but in the COM selction MEnu.
well, that's kind a strange isn't it? can you use the up and down-button when selecting a city and when selecting a road? are you using version 7.915 and not 7.910?
Sure! and I'l tell you something more interesting also when composing the destination I can't scroll from the vorious suggestions that are indexed along when you are typing (the only that is always selected is the first in the list as for the COM ports)...so the only way is to write the exact name
interesting. so maybe there are more versions of the 7.915 around? something to do with the rom?
anyway i can scroll from the vorious suggestions everywhere. Maybe i should send you my version and see what it does on your vox.
I had the following files:
ttn7.915.9196.qvga_black.cab
ttn7.915.9196.qvga_blue.cab
ttn7.915.9196.vga_black.cab
i installed the middle one.
a did find a bug, so it seems. How do you select a differect country when typing a city? On a PDA you can select the country on the right side of the screen. but how does it work on a smartphone? eg. I am from the netherlands and the only city's i can select are from the netherlands. In earlier versions of tomtom all city's of europe were in the same list. can anyone confirm this bug?
Yep Walram, this bug is on my StarTrek too, TT started in Belgium for me and i had no clue how to change the country to Netherlands, so i navigated to one of my dutch contacts and that did the trick, so, maybe a bit odd, but you could add a fake contact in the country of your choice to end up over there.
Nevertheless....this is an inconvenient bug since it doesn't allow you to travel or plan through whole of Europe
i wonder if the selection of country is in the map or in the application. eg. if we install an old map (version 7 or 6) do you get 1 list with all city's of europe?
so tomtom has some work to do again to fix this bug.
if you remove the mapsettings.cfg in the map-directory before starting tomtom you get the question once to wich country you want to navigate
so, a little, workaround. you also loose your home adres and favoutites i guess...
but it works... just that you know
well, that's kind a strange isn't it? can you use the up and down-button when selecting a city and when selecting a road? are you using version 7.915 and not 7.910?

I tried blue and black version. I think it was black wich did not let me select something with the up and down keys. So try both versions.
By the way installation failed every time on my Vox (Rose v.0.4)
So I extracted the files with win ce extractor, putted them on the root of the SD card and all went well.

I Can Confirm that! Smartphone users can take advantages ONLY from the blue one! And this ends my adventure with tom tom.

TomTom Satelliet fix

Hi there,
On my Compact V I've installed Tomtom 7. It works perfectly, but there is one small issue. The indacator for the satelliets shows never a connection, also when there is a connection.
After all it doesn't really matter, but it's a small thing, and I was wondering whether I am the only one woth this rpblem
I got my TD2 last week. and having the exact same problem.
so I am following this with big interest..
It's weird
Same problem here
I am running the version of TT7 which is in this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=551891
Works fine on my TD2, and displays the satelite status just fine in the bottom right. Download the file from the link, can copy the .exe and .chk files over the top of the ones you already installed.
After installing the TD2 tools, its also simple to setup to get it auto rotating to landscape mode.
mmm that doesn't solve the problem for me. In my current version I've installed a fix with the audio, en in the new version that fix is not working. Plus I have to activate the maps..
Anyone who has another solution?
I use the exact same version, which works flawlessly...
I'll post a link if it is ok...
After I updated to that version, I did not need to reactivate the maps and I dont seem to need the audio fix as it seems fine in that version without it. I am using the TESS essential V2.F rom, so maybe thats why its all ok on my phone.
I had same problem with the older versions, but after update to 7.916.9189 it was solved
version 7.9 shows satelite information and fixes perfectly.
Anything lowever then 7.9 doesnt show satelites.
I would upgrade to 7.9 anyway, the layout is so much more better for full touch screen.

Windows Live Messenger Problem

Hi!
I downloaded the new Windows Live Messenger and it works like a charm. The problem is every 5-10 minutes it tells me my connection is lost and it´s trying to reconnect, however the connection had never been lost and it never reconnects. Also the interface becomes glitchy, the soft buttons dissapear, so instead of having a frame around close(when you press the top bar) you only have the word close and touch x taskmanager doesn't have any X's anymore to close applications, only a soft reset fixxes this. Palringo doesn't give me this glitch but I don't like the user interface that much.
Any help?
Thanks!

I hope there will be a fix soon because I really like the UI, it's great to work with.
msn has been suffereing this issue for MONTHS!!!!!
You're not the only one. I'm on Telus Mobility with the same issue, funny thing is... It actually happens on the diamond and touch pro now on the STOCK ROM!
So it's clearly an issue with the MSN service itself.
They better fix it because i miss it dearly!

Have you guys looked in the Marketplace and downloaded the latest version?
I recall a post or two previously that were solved by the new one.

I have the latest version, installed it yesterday and the problem is there.
I created a a post in the microsoft forums and it seems updating the radio fixes it but ive just given up and waiting for the nect rom update with the added radio.
Ill dig out my post later.
Radio fix? but I never use the radio application so how is this the cause of the problem?
Bump...........
Any help? How about that microsoft post? Can't find it on the microsoft forums.
Same probs here for already 3 months or so, my Touch Pro also have this problem!
Wtf are they doin at MS ;/
All mine have the same problem.
If I'm not mistaken I've read somewhere that flashing to a new Radio Rom would fix the problem. I'll try this out and let you know how it works out.

Nth to do with flashing New Radio Rom
This "disconnect" problem has been happening a long long time since i had Dopod D810, Diamond2, and now HD, and the issue never gets away! I thought was the problem with network privoders over my place(HK), it seems actually not as what i thought...i see all of you here got the same issue...so MS what the fxxk, i am considering of iphone...it seems good in some way...hehe..
thanks
MS is sleeping, its a flaw well known even by Wifi will still get lost connection or updating status. It's so damn irritating every now & then need to flip through the chat windows just to refresh the connections. Unlike Android MSN it realy does auto-reconnect upon lost connection or trying to send message until the other user receives it.
