hi if you pay rapidshare then you can get the file stright away if you just want to cheep and do not pay for it like me then you have to wait i have tried it 2 or 3 times and i only had to wait once

Installed fine but i cannot activate a single map, tried everything online.
Does this program prevent maps from being activated?

I can't download it?
It always say me that I have to whait more then 100minutes but if I wait... at the end it kick me out with some f... error.

Hello,
you .cab seems interesting, but can you create a version where the installation folder is not "Storage card" but "carte mémoire". Because when we try to install it on a french SPV it says there is not enough space as it tries to install on the phone memory instead of the Storage Card.
Thank you very much.

hi there i did not make the cab up but it found it on a newsgourp all i did was to give you guys all the info in one place to get tomtom working it works fine for me in the uk and as far as i know it works great with no problems on other peoples vox i have a vodafone v1415 with a 2 gig card and it works like i say no problem

I've been trying to install the cab on my HP 514 but it doesn't works...
DOes anyone know the requirement of the TomTOm 6 for smartphone? The display resolution at 172x220 is it ok?

Hi bsmiley, and thank you very much for this great package !
Well, I hope this doesn't sounds too lame but ... I'm already stuck in the beginning with ... Fakecursor !
The tutorial says "Press the button to go to the home screen. This 'll exit the FakeCursor but now the icon of the FakeCursor is on the bar"
But ... What is the "bar" ? When I'm going back to the homescreen, the cursor actually disappears, but there's no way for me to recover it without launching it again via the start menu. And of course, when i'm switching back to tomtom installation, fakecursor is gone !
--> I can't get th fakecursor OVER tomtom installation !
And there's absolutly NOTHING on my taskbar or my "upper" bar !
Have you any idea ?
Thank you again for this great upload,
Nicolas

ok if you go to settings and in settings go to home screen when it opens up you will need to change home screen layout to windows default and then that should do it hope this helps let me know how you get on any other help then please ask

(
Hey there - thanks for this marvellous set of instructions and goodies,
however, I appear to be doing something wrong, and would find any extra help rather helpful!
I've followed your instructions - but when I first run TomTom this is what happens :
Using FakeCursor I select English UK. I'm then prompted 'English UK - YES / NO' - to which I again use FakeCursor to choose YES. And then I see the following message :
Your device is incompatible with TomTom NAVIGATOR
(and all I can then choose then is 'Continue').
Anyone have any ideas? What daft thing am I doing wrong?
Thanks guys

hi ok you need to unlock you vox first with the sda app unlocker when you get the phone for some reason you can not use certian programs so using this program makes it so you can try this and then let me know how you get on ps dont forget you do need to reset your phone after it gets unlocked

Hi there - thanks for the prompt response!
I tried running the SDA app - but I think somthing could be going wrong at this point.
The programme is called 'SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe' and in the task bar it appears as 'SDA FULL Application Unlock' (is this the correct version?), anyway, after choosing to Unlock my phone, and accepting that this may be unsafe - I get the following message :
"Phone is not unlockable"
Its a standard Orange e650 (that is the right phone isn't it...?)
Sorry for being so dumb - I know its bound to be something I'm doing.
And thanks again for helping me out
s

Ok - I was fairly sure I was doing something wrong, and had misunderstood what was meant by 'reset' - so I have now definitely cold reset my device, and have lost all contacts etc - all a fresh start.
I was sure this was going to solve it, but when I then follow your instructions, I get the same message (you device is incompatible...)
Help?!
Thanks again

Where can i get maps and the cracks for them?Better, i have the maps, but i can´t activate then.
Thanks.

hi there i have put a file together so you can download tomtom keygens
http://www.mediafire.com/?fzbeejm9me0
just download it unrar it and say for example you have a uk map then run the uk keygen and when ask put in your device code press enter and it will give you your code no problem good luck

location of maps
thanks for the great instructions.
where do i have to put the maps in? and do i need this fake cursor everytime i use tomtom?
edit: i found out where to put the maps but now i have the next problem:
i can only choose com port 0, 1, 2 or 9. but my gps is on com 6 or 7 (no other available).
are there anybody having the same problem?

Java driving me bonkers!!!

Hi there,
I'm quite new to this site and also just recently got hold of the HTC S710. This is really a kick ass little phone. Like a kid who got a new toy i started installing application, one of them Mxit (www.mxit.co.za/wap).
The 1st thing i realized was that i could not use the backspace key, (the 1 with the blue arrow on it) to erase mistyped text, I had to go to the Menu, Scroll up until I got "back" and the letter got erased, i had to do this for every single letter.
Then I installed Dr. Gonzo's Windows Mobile 6.1 v1.1 Rom. It just got worse, the Mxit application got shrinked somehow and didn't display full screen. but i had my backspace button working But still, its quite annoying not being able to have it in full screen like on my Nokia N80 which i had.
Then I installed Dr. Gonzo's New_Guava ROM v.1.0 OS: 5.2.1623.18129.0.4.5, and it runs like a dream, right about until I installed Mxit again and the application got shown in full screen but it cut off my last 3 contacts including the functionality of an inline editor (shows a bar at the bottom on the live chat screen to enter text) but I can not see this bar because its somehow getting hidden behind my Start Menu.
I read a few posts, and came to the conclusion that its got something to do with my JAVA. Right, i download at least 10 different versions, each and everyone doing exactly what i mentioned above.
If anyone can please help me get this sorted out I would be forever grateful. Sorry for the long post, but I had to describe whats going on.
I'm awaiting replies from anyone who can help me
Thanx...

I understand what you are saying.
This is a problem with the Jbed version for Vox.
I was hoping that some other Java version(other than esmertec) might resolve this. But I have no time to try that now.
Have to finish my exams first.
If you can find the IBM J9 or old Tao Intent versions, do try that.

Hi there,
Does your inline edit work, can you see the bar where your suppose to type your text in and is your Mxit fullscreen is it being cut of at the bottom. Oh and do you use the blue arrow key, does it delete text, cos mine just closes the application completely!!
What JAVA version are you running...!?
Thanx, i'm busy testing some other versions right now, so far not so good. Will keep you posted as well.

Okay.....so has anyone got to test Mxit on the Vox...?! I just received my phone back after being sent away for repairs, took about a month!!!!
But now it s back
Anyway, this morning I flashed the VoxRomNEO_v0.8 onto my phone and WOW this is truely an amazing Rom!!!
Okay, back to this thread, I installed Mxit again, hoping that by now I can have it running fullscreen and hopefully be able to see my last 3 or 4 contacts at the bottom but no luck. It is still the same, I'm tired of reading thru Midlet Bibles and all that jazz.......is there anyone out there who could possibly test this and give me some feedback.....please...!!!

Hey everyone,
Okay so this morning I flashed the WM 6.1 (96 dpi) version for the Vox, and guess what, Mxit works, I can see my contacts at the bottom and my inline edit works like a charm. The only problem I got is when I pushed the Blue Back Arrow button (which i normally use to backspace with) it closes the application.
So now my question, did it work because the ROM runs in 96 dpi, or is it the Java version on the phone which is Jeodek Build ID: 20070425.1.1....?
I'm could not get the version downloaded anywhere, but i did find some with heap size fixes......crossing my fingers that it works!!!
Will keep you guys posted....

Hello again,
Okay, so I got my Mxit to work, fullscreen, being able to see all my contacts including the damn inline edit bar at the bottom....
Now I have 1 problem, can anyone tell me how to change the key mapping of the "Blue Arrow Key" on the front display of the VOX.
What happens is, i use it as a way to backspace and delete text. But everytime i press it, it ask me if i want to close the Java application....
Can anyone tell me how to fix this please....?!

TOMTOM home now works with Touch Pro

Hi,
Just thought i'd share the news that tomtom home now works and syncs with the touch pro, so start buying your maps!!!!
Download the latest version from Tomtom

thanks for the tip!
but I can't seem to get any mapshare updates....
will play with my settings to see if that might do the trick

I also have problems to get MapShare updates. It tells me that my maps are up to date. I don't believe this. ;-)

i get the same also, and all the tweeks suggested in the kaiser forum dont work.

now it works!
i've updated my version of Tomton to 7.451, and now tomtom Home automaticly updates my map.

Sounds to me like you haven't enabled map sharing in TomTom on your phone. I had the same until I did that, and now it works fine.

i've upgraded to the latest version, and have enabled map share in both tomtom home and on the device. I still can not get map share to update.

I'm not sure then. The only difference between what I said and just enabling map corrections was that I reported one (I have been living in my current house for >4 years and TomTom still don't have it as a valid address. I have reported it several times through MapShare and it still doesn't appear as valid).

Ok, i will give that a try - my estate sill has roads that don't exist and although they have been reported many times, have still not been corrected. The 7.25 maps still don't seem that upto date for my area!
Have you / are you using tomtom traffic. I enabled the month trial, and it appears to update ok, but i never see any traffic information on the traffic map. The update symbol changes to green after an update, therefore indicating that it has downloaded data. On the liscence screen, it reports that traffic is enabled upto 22/10/08.

Thx it works fine. I had 65000 changes for my 6.8 Europacard.

How did you guys manage to get Home 2.4.. to sync with navigator 7? Is navigator installed on the phone or storage card?
Mine is installed on the storage card and Home 2.4 can't seem to find it.

no problems here with TT Home 2.4

You need to make sure that tomtom app is installed within programs. Depending on what cab you have used, it may have installed the application under a strange (german i think) folder name.

the only thing thats different is that the 7.451 allows you to use Mapshare with Tomtom Home.
I don't have a clu what else could be different (did not find any other changes so far)

I basicly tried every setting in Tomtom and in Tomtom Home, and suddenly it all worked.
perhaps a stupid question, but did you allready try to mess with the settings in TTH/extra/mapshare prefferences..... and what does it say in the bottom right corner: After this update ...Mb??
just press OK and let the update run
hope it helps!

Moving TomTom to Raphael

Evening guys.
Ok, think I have sealed my own fate to some extent here, but hoping there might be a solution.
I had a Kaiser which I installed TomTom 7 on using the hack whereby you buy the maps for the GO 720 and trick the Home app into thinking that it is a 720 (before the diamond maps were available - what can I say, I'm impatient! ;-) )
Anyway, predictably, I've now got my TP and have installed the tomtom 7 cab onto the device. However, it tells me that activation failed. I would go to the ttcodes.com website, but for some reason I can't find the damned product code for the maps on my tt account page (it says "product code , " instead of a number??!).
All I want to do is "unactivate" the maps somehow and then do an OTA refresh with my new product/device code. Is this possible?
To be honest, I'm a bit fed up with TomTom these days. I've spent literally hundreds of pounds on them over the past few years and upgrading on PDA is always either incredibly difficult or lags behind the TomTom hardware. If I can't get this sorted, I might just cut my losses and give ALK a new customer...
Cheers guys
squiggs

what version of Tomtom did you install?? 7.450 or 7.451

To change is easy however you can only change your device once in 6 month period. in tt find your product code - press the satellitestrength button followed by pressing on version number. In this list you will find your product code. Goto tomtom web site, log into your account and goto change my device at the bottom of the screen you can type in your new device product code. once done, you then need to download your map to tom tom home as the activation code will be different within the file. Sync your tp and all should work.
let me know if map share and traffic work. I can not get these to work.

@ Xtreme - installed 7.451
@ Ardsar - THanks, but the problem is, I can't get that far. It asks me to choose a map, so I choose my UK & Ireland map and it throws up the activation error.
Thoughts?
cheers

copy the ttnavigator.BIF from the root of your memorycard to your pc and open it with Notepad.
now you can read your devicecode
have you contacted TomTom already with this problem?

also delete your map - it should then let you download a free city map if you havnt done so yet.

Aha!
I've deleted the map and downloaded the freebie. Will work on work on it from both angles.
Haven't contacted TomTom yet (was hoping to avoid the pain!) but will do if I can't get anywhere.
Will let you know how I get on.
Thanks

Arrgh! It now shows the map for download on TomTom home but says "This item does not work on your device. Therefore it cannot be installed".
It obviously realises that it's not a 720 but that's what the map's for.

Have you vchanged your code on tomtom website? The map on your pc is prob still for your old device. Goto my maps on tomtom web site and re download. (move your old map to an area outside of tomtom home just incase it goes wrong. usually found under my docs/tomtom/downloads (or similar)

Hi again guys,
Ok - checked the tomtom website and compared to the product code that's on my account website, but they are already the same? I can only assume that TomTom home synchronises the two?
TomTom home still says "This item does not work on your device. Therefore it cannot be installed".
Any thoughts? I'm thinking that even if I speak to TomTom, they'll just say I shouldn't have bought the 720 map for the Kaiser and just to buy new maps? Seems to be the way they normally work. :-(
EDIT: I should note that there is no trace of my UK map on the device. Just the fresh TT install and my free download map of my area that I got last night.

Just a thought - did you delete your maps from tomtom home and your pc? If not i suggest you try backing them up to CD or something, remove them and try again. I'm not sure at what point the activation code is generated - ie when you install or download. Failing this, i guess x20 maps are not compatible.
Unfortunately, if you contact tomtom, they will just tell you to go away as version 7 is not released and supported in the UK. Sorry mate, i dont know what else to suggest. I used 710 maps on my kaiser which worked fine, i guess the x20 version maps are just to different.

Delete mapname.meta.dct and reactivate or generate a new .meta.dct by using a tt8_keygen.

Guess you have a choice to either buy the correct maps or move to ALK. I have Navigator live 7 (touch diamond edition) and i was not that impressed by it. Scrolling around the map is very very slow compared to tomtom, and the traffic module is not user friendly at all and requires intervention whilst driving!. Also they use navteq for their mapping data however the latest map is about 9 - 12 months out of date, although some of the road changes that have happened in my area are more up to date. From what i understand, tomtom will be releasing version 7 at some time so you may want to hang it there. Somehow, traffic started working last night, so i am happy now!

looking for GPS tracking application

Dear all,
I'm looking for the GPS (tracking?) application where I can load the waypoints (gpx?) and then follow them from one point to the next one.
Thanks for suggestions!

BLIND ? Lost the Search button ? Get this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=670116

Hi, I'm not sure if you read my post or just the title...
I cant find the way to load the waypoints (route) into the application you suggested and then to follow it. That app is very nice and can log the track as you move but I couldn't find the IMPORT/LOAD waypoints option.
If you're experienced with this app please correct me if I'm wrong.

Do you mean an aplication for Geocaching ?
Look for GCz. http://www.nicque.com/PQz/GCz.htm

Thanks Didibochum,
I've checked the GCz - it's not exactly what I meant but if nothing else is there then I'll use that one.
I'm looking for something like the garmin outdoor devices where one can set the route to be followed by placing the waypoints and then the program gives the direction and distance to the nearest waypoint. Once the waypoint is reached it automatically points to the next one in list and so on.

Sorry pepesz !
Now I get it, You want it the other way round Planning a route and then exporting to HD2 and follow the route .............

It can take a while to get a lock but, once you do, the HD2 stays locked pretty well, even a meter from the window
