Currently I'm using tomtom 6, which I believe to be the best gps program around. However, the old maps are starting to annoy me and I have found a few big problems with them already. The new maps only work on tomtom 7, which has no pda version. With a search of all foruns, I found a post from two montsh ago (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1855454&postcount=3) where it says tomtom 7 will be released for sure for pda's. I really can't find any more information about this, can someone please confirm that tomtom will be released soon and I don't have to look around for other solutions?
As far as I know tomtom 7 wont be released for pda.
I have tomtom 7 on a pna and tomtom 6 on pda and believe me... the old navteq maps beat the living ***t out of the new teleatlas maps...
teleatlas maps are fine on big cities but when you go the small areas... street names are all switched, roundabouts where there are none...
it's just sad to see tomtom selling such piece of c**p maps when other pna/pda gps software is using navteq oldies that are far better...
what is a PNA ? im after tomtom 7 for my mates symbian 60 S3 phone, but cant even find it on the tomtom website
A PNA (Personal Navigation Assistant) is a dedicated navigation device. So it will not run WM (maybe at its base) but it's designed only to help navigate.
thanks alot
TomTom Navigator 7 WILL be released, however ...
It will be embedded in the ROM of new PDAs.
Luckily including Touch Diamond, so I would keep scanning XDA Developers for hacks ...
thats just dumb putting into the roms, as if no one is going to work out a way to seperate it!

That like saying you shouldn't lock your car because someone will find a way in.
I wonder if these new maps, that are no good, a being used because of TomTom's new "Reality View" feature.

Well there was an official product launch for the HTC diamond and HTC is not including Tomtom on the diamond. Rumours say that only the german O2 diamond will have tomtom included but there is no official statement for version 7.
Almost sure they don't release tomtom 7 for pda as they now have navcore 8 for pna. So if a new version is available it will most likely tomtom navigator 8 for pda.
Version upgrades for Tomtom :=)
see below ..
Version upgrades for Tomtom :=)
I believe the new version for PDA.s will be with us before X-Mas (in 3-4 month)
All those people who buy a dedicated device; have already. As tomtom has released
version 8 for their map-share and other technologies they need also need the feedback from the PDA guys and as HTC is rolling out so many new models they will possibly only release a version which runs on wm 6.1
i spoke to tech guy and he said something will be out in 3 month but we wait and see.
if anybody buys a htc diamond or new x75xx with mobile 6 (and the device has a gps ship )
please PM me as they normally ship tomtom tasters which might be the version 7 code..
otherwise I am running happy the tomtom v6.0xx with Windows Mobile 6.1 on a HTC 7500 and on a Kaiser which also has the ALK Product which ships from O2
regards
In Italy TomTom presented last version of Tomtom (for PDA) 2 weeks ago...
So I think we'll should be able to use it soon!
anybody an idea where we can find the latest version of tomtom for pda ????
(with Advanced Lane Guidance)
thanks
it's out
Tomtom 7 for PDA is out... but none got the crack yet
can i put tomtom6 on my xda iq or what is the best sat nav for this phone as i have read tomtom 6 does not really work
You can put TomTom 5.2 for smartphone on standard and TomTom 6 on professional. I've used Dell Navigation and have plated around with Garmin and Rt.66 and I still think TomTom is better. Even 5.2 with 2005 maps is still useable.
2125
trying tomtom 6 on 2125 but never seems to run if you click it and crashes while installing do i need a different version of tomtom or upgraded rom to run ttn6 on this phone? or will i not run it ever?
Hi to everyone!
I bought a toshiba g710 today and i have tried to install tomtom 7 igo8 and tomtom 6 but there is something wrong cuz wont be installed. Dont know why!!! Any idea? which satnav software could be used with this smartphone? thanks
Perhaps you have not noticed this is an HTC devices only forum
I´m sure another member can point you into the right direction/forum
Good luck,
Hi,
Please help, I bought a Touch Diamond 2 T5358 off Ebay (Seller falsely listed as genuine HTC Phone) and now I'm trying to figure out where I can find a ROM that contains WM and Android dual OS and how to flash.
htc t5358+
any recommendation for upgrading to win 6.5
i have Touch Diamond 2 T5358 too
And i cant do the hard spl running Topaz-HardSPL_V5_00R5.exe.
i attach the fatal error, already installed enablerapinew.cab
i upgraded my touch pro2 to the htc 7 pro. the specs meet my needs but none of my old software will work. such as tomtom, smartwatchm, etc. is there anyway to install an older version of windows moblie such as 6.5 but with all the correct drivers to make all aspects of the phone work?
No. Lesson here is to always research before buying a phone!
