Does it work fine with a 200 Mhz proccesor off the MSA Vario??
Isn't Slow?
You need to forget all about the 200mhz thing, it's a texas instruments CPU not Intel so isn't relevant. It's a dual core CPU as well don't forget.
In my experience TomTom5 seems slightly slower starting up initially maybe 1-2 minutes but after it has started i personally think it out performs my old Blue Angel. route planning is pretty quick and re-planning if you make a mistake seems to happen in a split second.

When i am done nothing happens.
It seems thet it is instaled but there is no tom tom logo to start tomtom??
HELPPPPPPPP
I had the same problem, then I found somewhere on the TomTom website that the MDA Vario (K-Jam) needs the 5.21 upgrade to work. This worked like a charm. I presume this is now the version they ship as TomTom 5 as the compatibility list now includes the K-Jam: http://www.tomtom.com/products/features.php?ID=109&Language=1

Hallo, did you install the "old" version 5.0 software first and than upgrade5.21 over ? Or can I use the file "Upgrade 5.21" as a pure initeal installation of TomTom ?
I did the original install like you where nothing seems to happen after the install, then ran the 5.21 update and everything works.
tomtom on MDA vario
Hi, I have downloaded a lot of cracks for tomtom 5.21 and replaced the .exe file on the MDA Vario but tomtom does not start. It just hangs??? I tries with an other MDA Vario and I had the same problem. I can not be the only one with this problem I hope you can help me.
Get a proper patch frot tomtom 5.21 not duff ones that make the system hang and do pretty much squat all.
I have the same question I use the cracked file to replace the original one, then I start tomtom5 it hang up at first when there appear the import notice. by the way, I install 5.21,anyone can help me. many thanks.
Had the same problem sounds like you are mssng the Currentmap.dat file missng
Make a folder in My Documents called TomTom and place the CurrentMap.dat file in it
You can find the file here.

Hi I have an O2 XDA2i. while navigating with tomtom, if a call comes in and I answer it I cannot hear anyone, not sure if they can hear me either. I am using a Bluetooth GPS. Does anybody have a fix for this? or am I alone in this problem ? Also, even if I close tomtom down I cannot get hear anything while making a call...only option is to reset the phone.
...grrrrr.......
on a side note..... Does anyone have an XDA2i that has a blutooth car kit that works without echos?
Cheers,
Gary.
Installing the Tom Tom GPS 3.07 update reslved a lot of the problems I have using Tom Tom BT and a BT headset.
Install it after everything else and remove SD card before install.
still locks up every now and again but its about as good as I can get it to work.
Tom Tom don;t seem to give a damn about this problem.
There's nothing like a satisfied customer and I'm nothing like a satisfied customer
@princegary
please check this link:
http://www.tomtom.com/support/right...n/uk.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=1719
as tomtom declares:
...Therefore this update can also be used if you have:
an HP63xx Pocket PC (+ Bluetooth GPS)
MDA2/XDA2/QTEK2020
so it is not really for xda2i, but you'll see... (I don't see a reason for not working with it)

I do not know, that you only mistyped or really used TomTom GPS 3.07 INSTEAD OF TomTom Navigator 3.07, but if so - give it another try...
Maybe it helps to be satisfied! 8)
I tried the full 3.07 update and same problem still existsed.
I've now installed the 5.0 upgrade and this does seem to have resolved the problem.
All is not perfect as Tom Tom has stopped running twice for no apparent reason but all I need do is restart the application. I think it might be more to do with it loosing the GPS BT signal rather than a problem with the software compatibility. Only two days in so I'll let you all know how I get on through the week.
the only problem I had with tt3.07 on my xdaII, that sometimes it loaded so slowly, I started it more than once - after a soft reset, the problem's gone
but never stopped during/because of a call (neither destinator 3.075 did so far)
so, maybe just your device...
I upgraded to wm2005g and tt5 and having no problem at all (so far :wink: )
As I mentioned TTN5 seems much better, much more stable.
Would love to upgrade to WM2005 but as I understand it it doesn't work on the XDA2i only the XDA2 and the XDA2s.
HI there,
Does TOMTOM 5 work fine on XDA IIi? I have just read another forum here, that TOMTOM 5 is not compatible with the XDA IIi
I am about to upgrade and get the XDA IIi, i would appreciate if you could let me know.
thanks
nya
I upgraded across the weekend and so far Tom Tom Nav 5 has worked pretty well on the XDA2i.
As mentioned it has given up on me twice but I don't think this is due to incompatibility
thanks for the quick reply, just one more question please what GPS receiver are you using?
thanks in advance
Regards
nya
It's unbadged, bought it off of e-bay, please see link below

I installed TomTom 5 and the problem is solved! Call came in and I thought Damn... but I picked up the call and it was fine TomTom even resumed after the call which I was amazed at.
My only problem now is that I got a new 1gb card and tomtom hates it, or atleast my XDA2i does. Would it be better for me to just buy a 512mb for my sat nav apps? or is there a recommended brand of 1/2gb card that works happily on the XDA2i and TOMTOM 5?
Hi all
Apologies if duplicate thread as i have checked as much as I could for it.
I have recently changed over to T-Mobile UK MDA Compact from XDA II.
What I want to know is has anyone used the Compact with TomTom 3? If so, can you please tell me how u got it to work.
Also, is there any way of upgrading the RAM from 64Mb.
One more thing how do you get rid of all the generic T-Mobile stuff that comes pre-installed. I amd having difficulties getting rid of the GPRS Monitor.
Any help with this greatly appreciated.
THANKS IN ADVANCE
I used the setup on the CD and it installed like any other application. Worked great, and now I am using TomTom 5, which also works well.
I've got tom Tom 3 on my MDA Compact working with a bluetooth Fortuna Clip On GPS Receiver.
I found that you had to upgrade the GPS drivers from 2.06 or 2.07 (which came with my Tom Tom software) to 3.07 as these are the only ones that work with WM2003 SE. You can download them from the Tom Tom website.
Cheers
8Ball
thank you all. I've finally managed to get it working.
Discovered the problem was with my laptop rather then anything to d with the MDA Compact or TomTom.
Thanks all
Hi,
Are there any former MDAiii / Co-Pilot owners that have successfully installed verion 5 of co-pilot on to their MDA Pros?
If so, HOW?
I am experincing problems commnuicating with the bluetooth GPS unit.
youll probbably need to un hide the gps pannel an then set the bt comp ports up
how is this done?
i read a thread reference TOM TOM and a reg hack but not sure whether that applies to the MDA PRO?

Are you using the original version or the updated 5.0.1.48 ?
I'm using .48 and select Bluetooth for my GPS and it picked it up straight away
hmmm very strange - I installed the 2003 cab / TT5 and my MDA shows version 5.0.1.22.
I have received an email from ALK and they have stated that Co-pilot V.5 isnt compatible with Version 6.
I am getting a free upgrade to version 6 next week but thanks for your help!
How does Co-Pilot compare to TomTom 5? I hear CoPilot 6 is now out too.

.22 was the shipping version, .48 is a free download on their web site, just copy the .cab to your SD card, uninstall, and then run CAB, it should be fine

Haven't seen 6, TT was useless to be as it had no coverage of Ireland, neither the Republic or 6 Counties.
CoPilot 5 had the best coverage at the time

Do you mean CoPilot 5 not compatible with WM5 ? How come you are getting a free upgrade ?
Oops sorry about that that last reply of mine didnt make much sense did it.
According to ALK Co-Pilot 5 is not compatible with WMv5.0 - thats what they said in an email when I asked them about co-pilot 5 not working with mda pro.
I originally had the MDA iii with co-pilot 5 but found a fault with it within the first few weeks. If you are within 28 days then you can get a free exchange but luckily for me there were no more in stock and they were being discontinued by this time so I waited just over two months and got a free upgrade to the MDA Pro but my Co-Pilot stopped working so I had a winge at customer services and they arranged it with a store to swap the co-pilot out when they get it in stock.
SWEET! :wink:
Hi

Navigon Mobile Navigator 5.0 and 5.1 both works like charm on JasJar and for me it is much better than TomTom already. No problematic installations, works from SD straight ahead, maps are not splitted (the whole Europe is one file), you do not need to switch crossing the borders.
The maps source is better (maps are more accurate than TomTom ones).
I, definitely, recommend it.

Hi surinamer,
I do not think there are is anything special in Navigon config (i use BT GPS receiver).
I've installed Navigon completely and huge European map (~950Mb) to SD. I beleive you need to look at your general WM power and backlit
settings.
Forgot to mention - Navigon eats a lot of RAM - ~20-25Mb. So, free RAM as much as you can.
Regards,
baudy.
Hi Baudy2,
after reading your post I've installed on my xda exec Navigon 5, everything is ok with the installation,BT is automatically found, the only trouble is that when I try to navigate to a place that is about 3-4 Km from me, everything's ok,but if I'll try to set up a trip of more than 5Km the navigator go crazy and told me that I 've reach my destination after just 200 meters.
I've tried to free up as much RAM asi can, but with no results.
Any idea???
Sounds like a real threat for TomTom... :lol: :lol:
And sorry guys but an idea of installing a whole europe map as an only option is pretty riddiculous for me.
950MB needed even If I never go out of London :roll: .
Have an unique map it's just an option and if you travel all over Europe and drive for more than 1200Km in one day is wellcome...
The real problem is that I've tried TT5 and I've problem with maps not up to date,BT interference with my handsfree...
I try with Navigon and still have troubles....
Is there any software house who is able to provide a software that really works??????
Hi All,
Which of these navigation services offer the best UK traffic information ?
TomTom Traffic uses data from ITIS holdings which generates very accurate traffic flow data... I swear by it!

You've forgot to pay for the Navigon software.
There is no Navigon 5.1 cracked. Only 5.0. So, downgrade to 5.0. It works like charm.
Received my Orange M600 today & TomTom 5 will not install, crashes when trying. Tried 2 laptops & desktop. The same CD (genuine) has worked on my M500 & M2000
TomTom.com does NOT list the M600 as supported.
Does anyone have TomTom 5 running on a M600?
Thanks
Peter
works fine on my M600.
Key is to have version 5.21 or above, and the version for PocketPC, not Smartphones or others.

My 5 is the Upgrade Pack (I used to have TT3) & I elieve its 5.0 I then go online to download latest versions for my M500 & M2000
The problem I have with the M600 is TomTom crashing on installation. The CD still works fine with my M2000
Have hard reset my M600 3 times, each time it gets to the TomTom install stage & then fails. After the 1st time (after each reset) TomTom crashes.
How can I get the 5.21 installation?
