MS AutoRoute for PPC & HTC Wizard - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

Has anyone tried to install the latest AutoRoute for PPC on a Windows Mobile 5 enviroment? Especially on the Wizard?

:shock: Is there a version of AR for the PPC, I thought this was a Windows application only, I'll be pleased if there is a PPC version now....

I didnt think there was...
.... unless hes thinking of the Streets client where you can export maps of high detail... but that does not use a GPS ... least it didnt when I last used it.

I'm such an idiot. Apologies.
I meant the Streets in AutoRoute 2005 indeed. And now there is also a AR2006!
Anyway, has anyone tried it?

Great news!
(that's how I repay you for your lost time with my stupid question)
Pocket Streets now becomes Pocket AutoRoute and from version 2006 also supports GPS!!

SPB Pocket Plus works flawlessly in my BlueAngel WM5 machine, however, I feel that SPB P+ slowed down my device so I decided to use combination of iLauncher v2.2 (http://www.sbsh.net) and Wisbar Advance 2.4.1.9 (http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com) which runs awesome (much faster than using SPB Pocket Plus)
As for pocket informant, you need to download WM5 version from here:
http://download.pocketinformant.com/FTF/PI_Public_Build/
I hope this helps
there is a big list of progs that are known to work/not work in the himalaya forum.
what i dont understand though is if the program is known to work ok on wk2k5 himalaya, will the same prog work on a k-jam which has a different kind of CPU? or is it all like PC's now where the make of the cpu doesnt really matter and that windows takes care of all that kind of stuff.

there is already a warning that tomtom 5 will not install properly through activesync 4, (files have to be transfered without activesync 4) this may also be why some other programs will seem to be incompatable with wm5?
so if you can transfer the program eg by card reader that you want to test, then install it, you may get better results.
mine should be arriving tomorrow
changing the subject slightly, ordered mine from http://www.smartdevicesdirect.com/index.php
very happy with the service.

while i am waiting for my k-jam i thought i would try wisbar on my qtek s110 to see what it was like, i just want to point out that if i try to exit from wisbar the pda locks up and needs a soft reset?
not bothered but still may happen with k-jam as well

Cool! Opera is great on the desktop. Can you explain more about its strengths and weaknesses? Does it work in VGA mode?

yes, if you set the fonts to be smooth and small. Outstanding. A little bit of pain for your eyes, though.
Probably the rendering is more suitable for a portrait smartphone screen, but I think it will change when the definitive program will be released.

I tried it a couple of months ago. Ignore that it only works on smartphones, worked fine on my XDAII (Mobile 2005). I think i just extracted the cabs out and installed it manually.
Gonna try it again on EXEC hopefully it will make browsing easier.

Me too, and me too!
(And it's fantastic when used with ozVGA)
So you suggest me to buy it? :lol:
Alex
Well I got mine free with AutoRoute, I thought Pocket Streets was a free viewer? I certainly haven't seen it for sale anywhere...
My mistake it's $25 on the Microsoft website. Seems steep for what it is, but it does the job. I'd get Pocket Streets 2006 free with AutoRoute 2006 if I were you though, better value...
Well I bought it for 25$.. Well its ok for me..
But I am very disapointed about the resolution of the maps..!!
Looks like ega 10 years ago..
Isn't there any solution like this with high resolution maps?
Look at what I found: http://www.ecost.com/ecost/shop/det...code=10-15710793-2&adcampaign=email,ECOSTCNET

GPS on winmob, what apps are free or eval period?

hello,
since yesterday, I'm trying cmonex's rom with phone(no voice) and gps working but I need an application to test the gps and I don't have one.
I have tried with Live Search but it doesnt seem good and it needs internet for downloading card, not good !
I have heard about igo but i have also heard that it was too heavy for the shift. Is it too heavy?
I really want a gps software to test it in BELGIUM (i know that there are gps apps in US in eval period but I can t use it here).

I am using Winodws Live! Search. It is cool. I also have Franson GPSGate (both PC and PPC) installed. On the Windows Vista side I installed Microsoft Streets. Franson GPSGate let me use GPS on Vista side, of course.

Could you help me a bit? I have no idea how to launch GPS in my Shift. I did everything that was on a film at Modaco. My shift is now liberated, but i don't know how i can set the gps port in Igo for example.
I have GPSGATE wm version and GPSGATE windows vista version installed on my shift and configurated both for activesync and IGO PC version works very very good.
igo8 works just great on my FS N520 wm5 device (which is only 312MHz).So, i suppose it will work fine on shift. It's perfect for europe - I have travelled to many european countries with it.But just one question: where will you install the program AND the maps, since wm side of shift doesn't read the sd card???
hehe ;-) you cannot install the maps. (as workaround you can move the maps to windows XP/Vista side, make this folder visible for network access and mount it with scecial tools on windows mobile side. But this is not more then a workaround, you must let running windows XP/Vista all the time too.. Not a really good solution...
the shift is a..... mistake... ;-)
there is IGO8 PC version that run in vista side very well

Nokia Maps for Diamond

I have HTC Diamond and I am looking for Nokia Maps pro.
CAN ANYBODY HELP ME ????
this is quite a funny question ) do you at least know the difference between Windows Mobile and Symbian?
nokia removed the wm version. Search for 'smart2go windows mobile' and you'll find versions on other portals. Same for the maps. Nokia's maploader is too new, so simply do some search and you'll find a (norwegian) site to download the files directly.
After installing the app you have to start it first before copying the maps. Close the app and you will find a folder 'cities' where the maps should be copied to.
(directory structure cities/diskcache/...)
