newbie tomtom help - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

Just got my hands on htc hd2 yesterday and love it.
Ive installed and got working tomtom but did it by copying the files to the sd card rather than installing so i could avoid the bluetooth problems.
Now the only problem is I can only run tomtom through file explorer and cant seem to get the tomtom icon in the quick link section on the home screen.
Anyone out there can help out a windows mobile newbie

Tomtom Navigator 5

Hi,
I have just installed tomtom 5 on my pda. looks good. I have changed my home location and added some favourites and changed some POI. if i exit out of tomtom and then go back in, all my changes are lost.
Does anyone know why and if there is a way to get round this??
Thanks in advance

thats weird, i have no problem with my tom tom and its cracked, are you using a legit one? and how have you installed the files, did you put the files on the defult directory being your mmc and not in folders?? if you are not using legit one you might have to download another one else where or download it again.

You do exit in the correct way dont you?
Make sure all the files are not 'read only'...
yes I exit the correct way. how do I check if the files are read only?? and if they are, how do I change them??

hamzar,
Make sure your SD card is not locked, and delete the (map_name).cfg file in the map folder. Next time you start tomtom, the file is recreated. Should sort it, jobs a good'un, etc.

HTC Touch diamond ROM update Re-register TOMTOM

Hi all,
I have a small question
I have a HTC Touch diamond and i just updated the rom to the version of 2009-01-16.
I had TomTom 7 installed on my internal storage.
After the update tomtom seems to work just fine BUT its off my programs list(seems okay because i updated the rom).
Is there any way to re-register tomtom to the programs list without completely re-installing it.
I can't seem to find any info on the xda developer forum.
Is there anyone who can help me?
Grz,
Zooibak
I don't think you can re-register the program.. But what you can do is, simply create a shortcut for your tomtom executable in the programs folder.. You can use File explorer program like Resco Explorer to achieve this..

Your lucky that it worked when you uninstalled it, I had to hard reset my device... I was bummin... alas.. no good info for you...
Rename these 2 files in your windows directory on phone:
BtCoreIf.dll
BtSdkCE30.dll
(for example: "BtCoreIf.old" "BtSdkCE30.old")
then reset, it will fix them.
This should be a "sticky" topic! I've seen it come up so many times over the past few weeks.
Thank you very much everyone. Tom Tom is working and bluetooth as well.
Now TomTom still has a lag. I was using v 7.915 and the lag redicolous. So I reseached on here and found that some people had luck with the v 7.916 so I updated to that. Tonight I was driving and the lag was better than before but it was still about 1 mile behind than where I actually was. For example I would be at the exit and it would say in one mile take the exit. I already did the quickgps program update and it didnt help. Am I missing something? I

Do a search for GPSGate... Solved my TomTom lag problems completely.
AWESOME - that renaming the files worked! Thank you!
I use a Imagio with WM6 and had the same issue with TomTom v7.916.9189 and after renaming those 2 files my Bluetooth is up and running. Thanks!

They are there in the windows directory... In my folder they are about 1/3 the way down. They are not next to each other though. You will have to scroll a little further down for the second one. I use File Exporer and they are literally right inside of the windows directory.
cool
had to activate the "show all files"
got it now and all sorted.
got the fm radio working now
thanks all

I just replaced my TT install with this cab; the bluetooth is resolved; autorotate is fine too; not tried the lag (not sure if I had lag in the first place!)
THANX

I have the same problem.
But i can not delete those two files. Also try to rename them with Total Commander but it is not possible.
I already did a hard reset and then install TomTom cab without these two files but the problem is still there. When my bluetooth is on I dont have send on my TomTom. When i close my Bluetooth it works ok.
What can I do to solve the problem?? Because my bluetooth has to be on in my car.
I dont understand that other problem can rename or delete these 2 files and if I want to do this it is not working Why ?
What program i have to use to rename those 2 files ???
Please help
Any chance you could repost the .CAB as an attachment? I can't access megaupload from work and when I try to download it with my phone it always says that I've exceeded the download limit (likely because somebody else on Telus is downloading something else...)

i believe the maximum cab upload limit here is 9mb... tomtom is 14mb... hence the reason it's on megaupload

[REQ] TomTom destroys Bluetooth function - BTTrayCE.exe etc. needed

Hello together!
After installing TomTom on my HD2 the internal Bluetooth-function doesn´t work...as far as I know it is recommended to rename/delete the following files to fix this issue:
BTTrayCE.exe, BtSdkCE30.dll and BtCoreIf.dll
But in fact I can´t rename/delete any of these files...tried with windows explorer, TotalCommander and the HD2 Explorer (I don´t know if they are in use?! according to the task mangager they aren´t)
So could anybody please upload these 3 files from a working HD2 Device?
I renamed BtSdkCE30.dll and deleted BtCoreIf.dll.
For some reason BtSdkCE30.dll was in use, but I was able to rename it.
As far as I know you leave BTTrayCE.exe the way it is.
Done with Total Commander btw.
Maybe restart your HD2 if you can't even rename them, then try again before doing anything else.
Tomtom doesn't list the software as compatible with the HD2...
So i can imagine none of you did buy it and all use a not compatible cracked version. tttttttttttttttt
So now enjoy the dark side !!!!!!

this works with almost any problem situation with tomtom...
preferable, install to memorycard on another device, then run tomtom from card without installing it, cause you put all the files on memorycard already... yes i did buy it for my touch pro...
If you are installing with a cab file,
Install in your storage card and hard reset.
Now, don't install again.Copy tomtomnavigator.exe from program folder in storage card and place a shorcut in windows programs folder.

It's working well on my HD2 without issues.
Hey there!! First, thank you for your answers!
Well, i really don´t want to make a hard reset!! TomTom itself runs very well on the device (and it runs on my device too), my only problem is that the bluetooth will not work as long as these three files have not been deleted or rather been exchanged with the untouched files .
Let me explain that: If files have been deleted, the HD2 will restore them from the rom automaticly after a reboot and everything is fine. Most people who had to handle with the same problem (TomTom vs. Bluetooth) had success with this method, but a few devices deny the access on these files, so they can´t be deleted or renamed. So is mine.
And for this reason I asked for the original files from a working rom! It would make it possible for me to replace my corrupt files...
Has anybody of you guys a few minutes of time an wants to upload the three files please?
It would really make my day!!

If device deny access to files, they cannot be renamed or deleted, you cannot replace them with other files too... (do you tried Resco Explorer?)
I have made a personalized cab of TomTom Navigator which doesn't install the bluetooth-specific files. If needed I can upload it somewhere and give you the link via PM

You mean the device ID?
You can open the ttnavigator.bif with notepad in your PC for the device details.
How I fixed the problem
I had the same problem, so I deleted the three files with resco. Two of the files will "appear" not to be deleted because they are ROM files. The important thing is that you need to have a shortcut to BTTrayCE.exe in \Windows\Startup.
Thanks for the posts!
As I said, it´s not possible to delete the files in my case...thats why i want some original files to exchange them.
...Is nobody out there how wants to upload these three little files for me? ...
I had this, All I did was launch TC, goto \windows do a select bt* delete all files, and it fails to delete most of them, but soon as I did that BT came back to life....
I can't help with the missing files as my device has still to arrive but I read that installing version 7.915.9196 VGA from HTC Iolite works without the bluetooth problem.
hey guys i could really use that bluetooth file.. i sorta messed it up too with the tom tom...
Hey Londontownguy:
Thanks for your suggestion! But as i said above, i really don´t want to hard reset. And the 7.915.9196 VGA from HTC Iolite doesn´t contain the "healthy" files, so an installation without hardreset doesn´t fix the problem.
Now we are two people including phatjesus81...andagain:
...Is nobody out there how wants to upload these three little files?...
myeah..
i cant start my bluetooth anymore because last week after installing tomtom7 i got the error and baleeted BTTrayCE.exe somewhere , even though it is in my \windows\ folder together with the btcore and btsdkce50 dlls.. cant remove those..
so BBTrayCE.exe is in my windows folder right now , and bluetooth wont start.. does that have anything to do with the other two dll's still being there or am i a booboo?
i mean, i totally removed ttn..
so now i'm totally stuck..

Your maps need to be in the root of your storage card (not in any subfolders!)
Grtz,
Degake
On SD card create directory for each map e.g. UK, Western Europe etc...
If it doesnt work you use incompatible TT and map version (some TT7 doesnt work with any map 8.35 etc)

That is not exactly true...your maps can be placed in "My Documents" folder on your storage card as well... it will read them with no problem at all.
cheers for the help guys, kind of working, but i need some help with getting the last bit sorted if you know what i mean, cant get any act codes to work, so if anyone could help would be appreciated. cheers

I meant it's best if you just made the map directories directly into root of your storage card this way you'll have the best possible way of organising all of the files - I think -.
