Hi All
just upgraded (or should that be downgraded) to a TD2 but I cant get either version of TT 6 or 7 to install. In both cases it tells me the software/device are incompatible...
Device data WM 6.1 pro build 21042.1.6.1
processor MSM7200A - 528MHz
All assistance greatly appreciated as I want/need it for my hols startin Sat!!
Thanks
Pete
The only advice I can give as I don;t have mine yet is post on the TD2 forum... there are lots of TomTom threads there
TT7 7.45 cab works, TT6 works too - what are you doing as I had it running fine.
Hi
I had purchased v6 originally and it wasn't recognised by my PDA. I bought v7 and it told e that it was incompatible with the device as well as screwing up TT home. From that and searching in here I found a cab file for a version called 7.95 which works but only recognises maps of Spain and Pertugal which I had purchased through TT home prior to the upgrade.
It wont recognise either v7 or v6 maps of UK no matter what I try (no code works) I am told this is because TT7 is free but the maps cost and self install/authorise without the user needing to enter an authorisation code.
TT support told me that their support doesn't cover TD2 as they haven't tested it yet...therefore I'm stuck...
I know i'm going to get blasted about no warez slogans but if TomTom aren't going to support it for some time then i guess they don't deserve your money right now, warez it and then when it gets supported, you might want to consider buying it.
It's better than not having a gps on hand.
tom tom more maps
I installed tom tom and it works. i installed 1 map (western europa).. tehn i want to install another (center en eastern europa) but this did not work.. Can i install 2 maps on 1 device? or is this not possible?

Hi I was just wondering if anyone has any comments on which is the best sat nav program Tom Tom 3 Nav or Alturion 6. I am using tom tom at the moment but having a few problems so might switch to alturion.
I've used both and I do believe that Alturion is the better of the two.
+ The fact that you have an PC-application as well as an pda one
+ you can combine different maps and make them as one, so you don't have to change maps at the border. Tom Tom has European roads, but then it lacks the detail where you want it. Alturion you can have like the area where you start, 5km around your planned route, and the province of your destination, in high detail, and the so build map, wouldn't be larger than any other map.
So why do I have TomTom then, well because of the price
TomTom costs 169€
Alturion 129€, but Alturion charges 79€/year for support
TomTom has a larger community so easier to find addons like Poicheck
but most importantly TomTom is warez, Alturion I haven't found as warez
:twisted: :twisted:
What do u mean by warez?
warez = free version to 'test' a commercial app.
you wont be suprised that testing will take forever
in other words: it is not officially licensed and thus illegal s/w
alturion v6 is on the newsgroups
maps are updated more freq with altruion theres some nice features but the menus are a bit fiddly also its speed sensor function is good
it automatically calls out if your exceding the speed limit for the particular road your driving on
nice that it works on my laptop as well as xda2
suppose tt3 is good as its easyily used but it needsds more updates for maps
tt4 is out but not tried it yet
xda2 with alturion 6 standard
Hi
I am new to this site, I am a proud owner of a second hand XDA2. I already have alturion std 6 version with a serial gps receiver.I have installed it on my xda2 and when i try to export maps, for some reason it says i dont have active sync on my computer. It is strange because i would'nt have installed alturion on my xda2 without active sync. By the way I have active sync 4.2 on my PC.
Any help will be very much appreciated
cheers
shanks
Alturion has a very good helpdesk. Beter to ask it there.
I think you should stay with Tomtom.
Hi all,
I am trying to work out how to install the TomTom Navigator 5 Series maps onto the Polaris. It does not seem to be going very well. I was using these maps with the jamin and tomtom5. Do I really need to buy new maps? I hope not as these work and are perfectly good. Please could someone enlighten me please?
Kind Regards,
Will

I guess the problem is that you have tomtom 6 on tc and want to use tomtom 5 maps. You could try installing them using tomtom home. Or you could try uninstalling tomtom 6 from the tc and installing tomtom5. if u have bought the software and maps, you could email tomtom customer services and explain the problem (i.e. that u cannot transfer the maps on ur new device), maybe they could be of help.
hope this is helpful
TT5 works fine on my Touch Cruise. You first have to remove TT6 from the device. Then, copy the 4 CABs to a temporary dir on your SD-card and run them. Install the cards you need on a temporary dir on your PC and copy them to the SD-card.
I copied the card dirs from another device. All settings and speed cams where copied to my TC.
I hope this brief explanation will help you.

Thanks Joop and Jackster....
I have had a reply from tomtom........(info for anyone else)
"Dear Mr Richardson,
Thank you for contacting TomTom Customer Support with regards to your PDA.
Navigator 5 maps are unfortunately not compatible with the software of Navigator 6.
You will have to use the maps provided with navigator or buy new maps.
Please check the compatibility of your device , you could do tis by going to our website under PDA/Mobile"
Its a ****** scam! At least Microsoft aren't that bad! "Here buy Nav 5, (XP) whoops you have upgraded to Nav 6 (Vista) none of your programs work, sorry you have to buy them again!!!!!!
Brilliant Thanks Tomtom for the support and great service! What other people sell navigational software? (Rhetorical Question, PLease do not reply!)

Hi there
I've got my xda Diamond Pro today! All things like Sync with Outlook, transfer data and so worked fine. But I've quite some problems:
TomTomNavigator 7:
I installed TomTomHome on my Notebook and buyed maps of WesterEurope at TomTom-Shop. Then I tried to install the maps, but TTHome doesn't see my phone. But its connected correctly and activesync works as well!
Is there a hint, to get maps installed and TTHome working with XDA Diamond Pro???
TouchFlo3D:
There is no "Remove"-Option on bottom of "Programs"-Page... So I can't remove some unusefull programs!
If you could help me, it would really great!
EnzephaloN
Tomtom 7 is not supported on the touch pro and therefore you need to contact tomtom and get your money back. This has been detailed on another thread. Rumour has it that there might be a version released in October. Suggest you do a search on the forum.
Sorry, but my xda diamond pro (same as HTC Touch Pro) originally came with TomTomNavigator7 installed on it!! So it has to be compatible!
I also was able to install the one free map (only a small map of my region).
Any more ideas?
AND:
How can I remove items from the TouchFlo-Menu? I don't need "Internet" and "Weather" there!
EnzephaloN
How much was your pro on O2? MOnthly charge? I cant see it on the site, i was unaware it was released on tht network yet. Business user perhaps?
I bought it in germany, cause I'm from germany. It costs 199€ with new contract, 279€ -399€ with contract-extention and 799€ without contract.
If it is tomtom navigator 7 and not 6, then all i can suggest is to make sure you have the latest version of tomtom home. Tomtom home checks a file on the pda to check what model it is - in the case of the touch pro, the file contains a description of rapheal which is not recognised by tomtom home and will therefore not connect. I presume this was done to stop people using cooked roms from the diamond to get hold of tomtom 7. Currently tomtom 7 software is not available to buy on its own.
If its tomtom 6, then there is a different version of home to install.
Its defenitly TTNavigator7! See: O2 Online XDA Diamond Pro
Does anyone know, which file has to be edited in which way?
EnzephaloN
I've tried editing the file, but its always over written by tomtom.
As you have a supported version, i suggest you contact tomtom directly. It may just be that tomtom home has not been updated yet to support the touch pro?!? This could be good news for all of us waiting for tomtom7 to work on the touch pro!!!! Let us know how you get on.
Looking at the tomtom website, the map download options still only list the diamond and not the touch pro. Guess it is a matter of waiting for an update.
Hi All,
I see that many of you have TT7 working on HD2. Can I ask if anyone has official maps working?
I have TT 7.915 and V8.4 map ( purchased ( with real money! ) through TT ). This was on my Diamond. I want to transfer this onto my shiny HD2 but so far TT Home does not recognise HD2 as this is not officially supported. ASs this is the case I cannot transfer the account to the HD2.
I don't want to go down the route of 'unofficial sites' and I definately don't want to be stuck with CoPilot!!
Cheers in Advance
same problem here...tthome dont see hd2 and cant update maps
same for me too, does anyone have any tips?
Heeelppp !!!
I've just bought HD2 ...630 euros in Italy and my TT7 7.9 maps don't go... Say me Not enough memory !... In my Msd 16 gb !..
I have 1.48 ROM Ita.... Anyone can help me ?
Thanks in advance....
I just received my HD2, it's the orange french rom and tomtom7 is working ok.
Here is what I installed :
Tomtom 7.915.9196 + Carte Western & Central Europe 8.35.2421
I have an official version of TomTom but when I attempt to install it I get the following error message:
"Your device is not compatible with this version of Tom Tom Navigator!"
Hello,
I have A touch HD2 and I have the message "Your device is not compatible with this version of Tom Tom Navigator!" when I install the 7.916.9189 vga version but the 7.915.9196 works great.
I hope it can help you.
My problem is that I have a legal copy of Tom Tom map of WE but as TT is not yet supported on HD2 I have no way of linking the Map to my device.
All works fine on my Diamond but now I will format and sell the Diamond but want to link the TomTom account to the new phone...
But TomTom do not recognise the phone.....
for those who dont want to use copilot:
--> my device: HD2 bough without any branding, simlock etc, in Austria, ROM 1.43.407.2 (70124) GER
i got "Sygic mobile maps 9" running which is suitable for WindowsMobile, Android AND Symbian - at the same time, just different installers as it seems (only tested it on WM)
its VERY fast finding sattelites & finding the way (Vienna to Hannover which is about 1000km took about 20 seconds), there are maps for i think all over the world and the complete europe maps is 80€ (i'm sure you can find it as an illegal working download....)
this is the way i avoided copilot & tomtom...
hope you find a working solution =)
Tomtom v7.915 build 9196 Black Edition is an Unofficial version, but works on the HTC Leo (It show how speed is the community, unlike tomtom ...) It fix the BT bug.
It's for the moment the only way to have a working tomtom. But, as ever, maps will work only if you have the good DCT : a map will work for only ONE device. The use on an other device is forbidden.
Be careful : maps 840.2562 won't work on WinCE devices
Thanks, it works, no more BT annoyance !

Hi!
Just bought the TOM TOM Navigator 7 from a retailer in Sweden.
Its the 1OK0.054.01 delivered on a 2 GB SD.
The "Application version = 7.910" (found in the "Release file")
Trying to install the CAB file from SD or copying it to internal memory (installing it from there) gives the same error:
"Your device is not compatible with this version of TomTom NAVIGATOR 7"
My Diamond 2 is brand new (1 day) delivered with WM 6.5 from factory.
I have looked around quite a lot but it seems like no one have this problem.
Due to the fact that the Diamond 2 IS supported according to TOM TOM today it makes me quite...upset.
Thanks
put your sd card in a reader and connect to TomTomHome maybe it wil upgrade you to the latest version of tomtom.
Your version is old the latest version that works on the TD2 is 7.918.9193
Hi!
Thanks for your help but it did not work.
Tried to update SD card with TOM TOM Home 2.
After reading the help section it clearly states that Navigator is not upgradable that way. Seems only to compatible with stand alone units from TOM TOM with cards..
So... This will be a tricky one...
Any other solution?
Hi,
there's a working Tomtom7 version (7.916) available for download here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=556316 . Make sure you choose the WVGA version. From what I've read around and from the fact that the post hasn't been closed since years, I assume that it is legal. Be also aware that you will need a "clipped audio fix", look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=513621.
You should be able to register and run the maps you purchased.
Ciao!
Ah, I almost forgot...here's a little "extra" I've implemented: use the hardware zoombar to zoom in/out Tomtom maps! Look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5000902&postcount=58 . Enjoy
clipped audio is no longer necessary with the latest versions
