Has anyone managed to get tomtom working on wm6?
I cannot for the life of me work out how to stop it crashing after about 20 seconds of it running. Ive tried 5.2.
Well, TomTom 5.2 runs smoothly on my Tornado, using the Fortuna Clip-On Bluetooth GPS receiver. No crashes at all!!!
A latest PPC version of TomTom 6 Navigator (V6.201.7160) works perfect on my SP5 w/ WM6 or WM5.0 before, but the virtual mouse SW i.e. FakeCursor should be used with occasional conditions.
Its really stronger than TT5.
Heres the original package of TT6 (delete the .cfg file unless u like the chinese interface)
and the crack
Enjoy!
Admint edit: Links have been removed warez is not allowed!
How does Fakecursor work?
Everytime i tried to use it, i got problems with the backlight of display.
i cant thank you enough.. thanks for posting this!
what maps work with this? i need a great britian map.
also its very slow, the black screen and red hands splash screen stay on for a good 30 seconds.
i spoke too soon.
it hangs on the screen with the arrow after the hands. like its crashed.
i think i have a memory problem.
i'll try overclocking.
overclocking works. ive managed to get to the screen where you pick your langauge but there is no cursor to select anything!
ive pressed every button and moved my joystick in every angle and i can only change the volume and not pick a language therefor not go on to set up the rest of tomtom.
this is driving me mad
Same problem here. I've managed (after about 30' of waiting, screen after screen) to reached the Time Format selection. Couldn't go further!
Lanny, are you sure that this version runs perfectly?
i cannot get fakecursor working
Guys u should create a shortcut of FakeCursor as long_camera.lnk (or any other button u like) in windows root w/ FakeCursor.exe, NOT in storage card.
Otherwise u cant do anything after TT's logo screen.
This version i posted runs pretty good on my SP5 w/ North American map v.665.1294 for 4 days after i installed the WM6 OS from jm012a9749.
Anyway,its a PPC version,so u must use FakeCursor to change lang., maps and edit the address when u input the wrong one.
You can press hold the camera key to call out the FakeCursor anytime when u use the TT. If u wanna stop it, u can press the home key to go back to the homescreen and press the back arrow to go back to the TT's screen, then the FakeCursor will be cancelled automatically.

FakeCursor for Smartphone
This is the FakeCursor w/ shortcut i used on my SP5, try it.
thanks i got another cursor thing working called sphelper. when ive passed all the settings i cannot get bluetooth talking to tomtom with my gps reciver.
'no gps signal'
aha, u should add a new device in phone's bluetooth setting first and create a new outgoing com port for your GPS reciever. After this step, a new com port, usually com6 will be added in TT's bluetooth setting screen. Well, choose it and enjoy!
thanks a lot
i wonder if tomtom will release a smartphone version of tomtom 6 in the not so distant future.. or is it pda only from now on.
I think its no chance to get a separate smartphone version even was told it surport PPC and smartphone platforms with one software when the TT6 was unveiled last year.
I hope the all new TT7 can surport smartphone exactly.
Tomtom 5.20
I had the same problem (Not function TOMTOM 5.20) and I have it solved. Only problem was missing file "CurrentMap.dat" in folder "\\\WinCE Device\My Documents\TomTom\".
TomTom 6 with WM5 & WM6
I read throughout all the postings to find a solution. I installed TomTom 6 v 6.010 (and had it running fine) on my original Tornado (SPV C600 running WM5) using the method described in earlier posts (copy the files manually to the device) I was able to plan routes. No issues here. However, after installing the WM6 rom (and following the same process to install TomTom) the following happens:
- TomTom starts with the black splash screen/red hands
- I get the green warning page where you need to click "Agree" and immediately, the program quits (no time to press the Agree button) and a message pops: "Your device is incompatible with TomTom NAVIGATOR"
Now what is interesting is the following:
- If I revert to WM5 (original Orange ROM) and do the same steps for TomTom, I get the exact same behavior (same message:Your device is incompatible with TomTom NAVIGATOR). BUT if I apply the patch send by Orange Security Unlock (Cab sent by orange for my IMEI), it works fine.
- So, I reinstalled WM6 and tried to apply the same patch, it will not apply and comes up with an error: "You cannot use this CAB file with this device". I thought the reason was maybe because the operator was not showing. So I used TyphoonNBFTools to put back the original operator and reflashed. Same error when applying the patch
_ So next step was to use the change in registry found on spv-developers. That change does an application unlock but still does not allow Tomtom to run. There might be other registry settings that prevents this.
Has anyone found a solution?
Thank you
I have the same problem when i installed TomTom6 in my new WM6 OS first time.
But, after i changed following registry values, everything was fixed. Try it!
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies]
"0000101a"=dword:00000001
"0000101b"=dword:00000001
"00001001"=dword:00000001
"00001005"=dword:00000028 (or40)
By the way, i used the V6.010 at first, now the latest version V6.201 works smoothly on my SP5 w/ WM6 OS.

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?

TTn6 Focufix is to prevent Tomtom 6 to go back to today screen on smartphones after a while

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.

The newest version of TomTom Navigator supports non touch screen devices.
I stumbled in this information by accident and thought it would be usefull over here.
I've tested it on a HTC StarTrek (qtek 8500 etc) with a WM 6.1 standard ROM and it works like a charm with the newest maps.
No more FakeCursor needed, you can scroll and use numeric keypad
Version is: 7.915.9196.
Because of slightly warez related.....google is our best friend.
How I combined 7.450 and 7.915 to get it working on my SAMSUNG JACK i637
Hey guys, I bought a Samsung JACK (637) a couple of months ago and really wanted to install a GPS software to use with my Bluetooth GPS receiver. So I spent a lot of time searching and researching my options. Since I used to use TomTom on my iPaq 2495, I decided to go with that.
I found that I had to spend MORE time on figuring out the RIGHT version of Tomtom Navigator and the combined MAP than I anticipated.
TO CUT TO THE CHASE, after experimenting a few version (6.xxxx, 7.450.xxxx, 7.910.xxxx, and 7.915.xxxx) I realized that the 7.450.9028 version works best but NOT without the following FLAWS:
7.915.9196 - Scrolling works for the menu items but NOT for useful features such as searching for address, and POIs, and even setting up the COM PORT for the GPS.
TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM, I combined two versions: the 7.450 and 7.915. Here's HOW:
The problem with 7.450.9028, at least for me, was that:
Searching for POI using the 'ANY CATEGORY' option yields 'NO POI FOUND' all the time.
It couldn't search through the POI database using KEYWORDS. The version of map I tried is 720 and it sure isn't the problem.
So, I made my OWN version:
1) Install 7.450.9028 on your PDA/SMARTPHONE
2) Copy the Navigator directory from /Program Files/ on your device to your Hard Drive.
3) Remove TOMTOM from your device.
4) Install 7.915.9196 on your device.
5) Replace all files except "TomTom Navigator.exe" in Navigator directory of the new installation with those in the Navigator directory indicated in step 2).
6) DONE
I now have a version of Tomtom with the 7.915 main program file and the 7.450 system files.
Now I can search POIs by keyword AND scroll with my UP and DOWN buttons.
These are instructions I think might be useful for at least some people. But I leave you to buy your own copies of the program and MAP so don't ask me for them.
I haven't tested with the more recent 840.2563 maps but I foresee for this to work with it, too.
That's interesting - also stumbled over the sudden "smartphone mode" in the latest version when playing with KS20 and my old Vox back and forth. I noticed though, that the menus in the "smartphone mode" are different from the normal "touchscreen mode".
Especially:
- no (direct) option to delete a route (plan a new route and abort when it starts to calculate immediately instead)
- useless menu to "manage phones"
It looks as if TT is in some mode intended for onboard car device.
What happens if you use the "manage Phones" menu (2.4)?
Your merged TT Versions should relate to the data.chk file (the other big file aside the TT.exe) - so maybe there is easier way to get it replaced. Merging data.chk and TomTom...exe with different versions did not work for me though, but you brought back the attention that it actually works as well (with minor quirks).
Just re-checked if everything works allright with scrolling on the VOX and Tornado - and it does (my Tornado is on WM6 cooked ROM, so not WM5) and the VOX is with Stock ROM 6.0 - so no problems with scrolling here.
The 7.915 had other side-effects, if I remember right like disconnecting BT-GPS in background, so you can't use it as "voice only". Will have to actually use it in real life to see if it works as reliable as the TT5.2 does (depite the maps are getting really outdated...)

I'm strictly using the PPC version of TT so there is no such option as “smartphone mode".
The hybrid 7.915 is pretty stable right now except for the "Start-up Preferences" that would always lead to a crash with "Not enough memory" error.
I also found that if you selected your STATE when inputting your HOME LOCATION during initial setup, TT will remain locked to that state (i.e.: only addresses in your specified state will be indexed during searches). The solution I applied was to simply do a "RESET FACTORY SETTINGS" (under Preferences) and select USA when selecting a HOME LOCATION.
It's frustrating to see that TT has yet to come out with a version that is compatible with all smart phones. I guess we shouldn't put all the blame on TT when manufacturers constantly come out with new ways to confuse us with unique button mapping schemes.
I didn't have problems with bluetooth. I think you're talking about automatic disconnections caused by the time-out setting in the phone. On my Samsung JACK, I basically set my phone to never dim the screen nor go back to home screen unless I manually LOCK the keypad. I can even use my BT headset and BT GPS receiver simultaneously connected to the phone. Now, the only time my GPS disconnects is when i get an incoming call. An inconvenience to say the most and hardly an annoyance. The only annoyance is that the battery would be drained if I forget to lock the keypad or if I leave an unanswered call log unattended (screen always on).
CHEERS!
What I mean is that the menus that the very same program (installed on just ONE microSD card) shows are different when I start it on my smartphones (HTC Vox/S710 or HTC Tornado) or on my PocketPC (LG KS20). You may not have noticed this as you are using it on a non-touchscreen device (aka "Smartphone") only.
I cannot do a side-by-side compare easily as the card can only be in either one or the other device...
A sure proof for this is that there is a menu "manage phones" (translated from my German version) on the second page of the main menu. On the PocketPC this is not present.
Also the item "delete route" (PPC on the 3.rd page) is not there when I start it on the smartphone.
Last, the smartphone menus show a digit (1,2,3,5,6) aside a list-like menu item while on the PPC this is a 2x3 icon layout and no digits shown.
Dropping the BT connection if sent to background does not happen on my PPC as well, but this is using a different BT-stack (Widcomm/Broadcom) while my smartphones use the Microsoft BT-stack.
Can you please tell about the menu specialties that I desribed - do you see these as well?

Are you saying that two different interfaces are supported by the same TT version?
Yep, the menu items are numbered exactly like you said.
On Main Menu - page 3, 'Delete Route' option is absent.
Also, I actually never noticed that there is in fact a Manage Phones option on Page 2 of 3. I'm not sure what this option does on my phone because all it does is bring a screen asking "Do you want to connect to "?".
I did use TT Navigator v6 on my HP iPaq hx2495 before. The installation was for touch-screen PPC but I really can't remember all the details. I could go back and have a look, though and even try to run my "hybrid" version on it through an SD adapter.
By the way, I have a 4hz Bluetooth GPS but my TT MAP is being updated at 1HZ. Is there any way to change this setting in TT? 7.450.XXXX used to update the map at 4hz. Perhaps it's not supported by 7.915.xxxx?
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.
Hi HD2 Experts,
I am unable to enter co-ordinate on Garmin Mobile XT. I am able to enter co-ordinate by connecting HD2 with MyMoblier via my desktop.
I assume the numeric and arrow key buttons of "Edit Coordinate" is too small. Also this screen wont respond to stylus or HD2 doesnt have a stylus its very difficult.
I assume this is due to Garmin Mobile XT wasnt designed for such high resolution.
I have done google around, nothing came up similar to the problem I am facing.
Any idea how to fix this ?
Thanks,
Dwija
I haven't tried it but possibly Zoomer could help.
I know the problem you are stating, quite annoying, I just keep adjusting my touch aim until I get the desired result, which does take some patience.
where is the Zoomer ? how to use it when on this screen ?
Zoomer is an app, just search this forum or google it.
It allows zooming in on any part of the screen so enlarging any small things just like the problem we have in garmin, once the small things are large its not so hard to do what you want.
I'm sure it will work well to solve the problem. (I will have to try it myself for garmin, I have used it for other programs).

On my HD2, using Laurentius26's Platinum V2.0 ROM, using Garmin XT 5.00.20wp, it works fine. You have to clear the field with the 'backarrow' before it accepts new numbers.
best regards,
