Hello,
I have i diamond but i want to bought a Touch PRO can you answer at this question :
Touch Pro with Tomtom7 is lag like diamond or not ?
thanks in advance.
@+++
tomtom 7 and diamond
I've got tomtom 7 up and running with no lag at all, but i know that the "wrong" version will be very laggish, så my advice get the diamond version that works!!!
Did you get TT7 working with TOMTOM Home 2.3? I tried, but my Touch Pro is not recognized as device. Without the device being listed, I cannot buy a map and load it to the TP...

Do a search in the kaiser section ... the answer is there somewhere. I know that when i installed TT7 on my Kaiser, i had to rename and move the installation folder. An error would still be reported by TT Home, however this could be ignored, and sync would then happen normally.
I have TT7 working fine and very fast on my Pro and on my Diamond - version 7.450.9028 with the official Diamond Maps purchased, downloaded and installed from tomtom.com - the Diamond Ver 7 maps are specifically designed for the VGA screen but actually take up less memory?
Also - both versions of TomTom home also work well but I preffer ver 2.3 as it was easier to add the extra's such as Map Styles, new voices and a car icons!
Hope that helps?

Bah... My Touch Pro didn't come with TomTom...
The touch pro does not have TT7, however you can get the cab from the kaiser forum. Maps can be purchased from Tom TOm - select the TOuch Diamond under map ugrade.
TT7 works great also on my Touch Pro (as long as no other programs are running, which preferably should be the case). Can't compare to TT7 on the Diamond though since I don't have one, but can only assume that the extra RAM on the Touch Pro could be making the difference here!??

tomtom 7 works okey and responds fine, however, comparing it with a tomtom one and for example passing a river, it seems to lag 50 meter behind, so you get the directions a little later then it should be
So this way you may mis an exit.

How have you managed to get maps downloaded to Touch pro.
I can't get TomTom Home to detect the touch pro, i have tried everything.
I only have the free london city map.
OK, TT7 and Touch Pro is killing me... I tried a number of things and I cannot get it to work with MapShare. The device never shows up in TOMTOM Home. So here are some specific questions:
Which version to install?
a) ttn7.cab (12351909 Bytes)
b) TT_Nav_7.450.9028_repack3-vga-black.cab (12348539 Bytes)
The Navigator folder should be moved to Program Files with following content?
contacts, itn, logging, microbrowser, sounds, voices, CurrentMap.dat, data.chk, navigator.cfg, TomTom Navigator.exe, ttnavigator.bif, UserPatch.dat
Is that correct?
The bif file has the following content:
[TomTom NAVIGATOR]
DeviceName=HTC-RAPHAEL

DeviceSerialNumber=<removed>

And a link needs to be in the StartMenu/Programs...
But all this did not work. Any suggestions?
Thanks

Make sure the tomtom app is installed under "navigator" and not "Intern guheugen". Create a new directory under root and copy all the files across. Tomtom Home should then recognise your device.
I have TomTom 6 on my Touch Pro and it works stonkingly well, no real difference in performance from my old Navman. I had to turn off "assisted GPS" in Schaps advanced config though cos it kept losing the signal every 5 seconds or so with it enabled.

That's just the point of this thread... I want MapShare to work so that I can purchase maps...
Still working on this one... It looks like the TOMTOM Home application is looking for the ttnavigator.bif on the device and once it finds it, the device is listed? Can someone confirm this? By just copying a ttgo.bif file to the root of a removabale media, this is being recognized by TTH as a device. And the older verion of TTH works with the TP having ttnavigator.bif in Program Files\Navigator. Any suggestions on how to solve this puzzle?
I have exactly the same problem - TOmTOm home does not see any device connected. Strange that i had no issues with this on my kaiser, yet i can't get it to work on the pro.
Hi!
Does anybody know from where I can download Google Maps? No, it did not come with the phone. And yes, I know that normally you get it from www.google.com/gmm - except that all I get from there is "Sorry, Google Maps does not work on your HTC TouchDual."
Do you guys get the same message?

To be honest I have never come across anyone who didn't have it installed as stock. Where did you get your TP from?
As for downloading it, you will need to search the forum and see if any one has extracted it from their TP as I assume it is a bespoke build for the software

no, it's a standard build. And there were problems with it on the diamond with it not shuttiong down the GPS properly and rinsing the battery in around 2.5 to 3 hours.

GPS problem or Google maps problem
Hi!
With IE, I got presumably the latest version, which seems to be 2.2.0.19.
However, I can not lock into satellites at all.
Before that I had found one web-site that hosted an earler version that was very quick to find satellites - it just was missing lot of features like the favorites and was nagging all the time about updates.
So the question is, is this a problem with GM? Or the phone otherwise? Here are my settings:
Windows GPS settings:
GPS program port: COM4
GPS hardware port: (None), Baud rate: 4800
Manage GPS automatically: checked
In Google Maps, I've selected the option to get position through Windows (as opposed to manual setup).
Does anybody know any free program that I can use to check out the GPS functionality preferably in a way that would give some deeper access to functionality - like the traditional satellite view? Thanks in advance!
Forgot some details:
I've run the QuickGPS - hope that is not what is confusing the GPS now as I had just had a update before this latest version of GM?
Google Maps just sits there with "searching for GPS-satellites (0)..." and never advances the count from 0...
DO a search and you will find a thread "testing gps" where you will find a tool for "testing gps"!

Read the other threads on gps performance!!!!!
YOur first lock on satilites can take upto 20mins, even though you have updated quickgps. You need to be stationary and preferably outside.

However, I did have older GM installed previously and it found a lock in just a few minutes. Actually GM doesn't even wait 20 min before it shows you a screen that says that it can not get a fix.

Same problem with the set I bought in Singapore, no google map included, and thanks for the IE fix, weird why Opera can't do it though.

I just wanted to say, that my Touch Pro doesn't have GoogleMaps preinstalled
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.

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.

just press OK and let the update run

Tomtom doesn't give any Resolution errors, so it should work for any resolution, but the Tomtom Version Tomtom 7.910
Tomtom 7.910 needs v 8.XXX maps, but you should be careful some map versions are only for PNAs ... You you should download the maps compatible with PDA or PDA&PNA
Tomtom is the best for Europe, but I do not like its simplicity, I like iGO 8.3.X Maps are updated monthly
Tomtom can not identify your device's com ports as well, for example, it may find your internal gps as a bluetooth gps, or viceversa.. So you should search for any kind of gps device in settings of tomtom in case if it does not recognize automatically

QVGA TT doesnt work on VGA or WVGA.
Maps are update continualy via map share.
TT identify COM ports without problems on all HTC devices or zou can set port manually.
any lag on tomtom?
On the videos looks like tomtom have a lag of 20 30 meters, and trying myself igo and copilot doesnt have lag at all, so, why use tomtom?
Guys here you'll find all latest TT. For sure on HD2 you should use VGA version:

I shared QVGA version of 7.910 on one web site, but before sharing I tried it on Htc HD, Htc Diamond, Htc Diamond 2, Htc TyTN II. So these resolutions are, QVGA, VGA, WVGA.
TT sometimes identify your Internal GPS as a bluetooth GPS, I say this information if some can not find their internal GPS, aim is to help to solve issues not to say bad things about TT.
If you have licensed version you may find correct maps, but ones that do not have should be careful to download maps that are compatible with PDA.
Regards.
Anyone has the same problem?
I've tried TT 7.910, 7.915 and 7.916, but all have a refresh lag.. So normally the screen (your position) is updated every second, but at my HD2 it updates in 5 or 7 seconds!
I've tried the internal GPS as wel the COM4 and 9600 baud GPS...
Google Maps works perfect (as far as I can see).
Don't know what to do about it.
Anyone?
Xmoo, The TomTom application works indeed but as soon as it starts it says it can't find any maps and then tries to make an internet connection in order to download maps at www.htc-citymaps but it then results in an error as the webpage doesn't exist.
How do you get TomTom to work with the maps and speech ?
Note: the installation CAB was 9 MB's hardly enough to conatin a full working navigation tool so it's clear that i'm missing data.
TT Maps n voices
black vga cab is 13.3MB - no voices, no maps no htc-citymaps - no joy....
Any help...anyone?
I bought co Pilot it because I want the integration into footprint. But now I spend my money and what happens: The integration is not working ! I press a footprint navigate button, co pilot starts, but no target is set ! it just starts coPilot, like it would when I go to programs and start it there. No footprint integration at all ! Do you have the same problems or do you know a way to fix it ?
hans
are you running a custom rom? Also are you running a branded HD2? Like Tmobile?
Did you install CoPilot on your sd card? I bet you did ;-)
You have to install CoPilot in your device memory to make it work with Footprints AND NaviPanel. Regards.
I think you also need the HD2-specific patch, which you should find somewhere on the copilot website.

True, if you just installed the normal version it will only open the program. That's what was happening in the beginning to all HD2 users.
