I have an official copy of TT Nav. 5 and I have asked TT support how to upgrade to TT Nav. 6.
I've been VERY disappointed by the answer:
1) "TT Nav. 6 is not compatible with the JasJar" but is with the Qtek 9000?
2) There is no upgrade available, I would have to buy the full version, since it's "a new product"
As far as you know, would there be an upgrade available from 5 to6 in the near future? Or TT assumes its paying customer would just throw away the old version they have and buy a full new version every time?
Can't believe no-one needs/wants to update its TT5!
I'm not sure if I understand the question..
I am currently running TomTom 6.010 on my Jasjar - it works fine, albeit a bit slower than 5.21
I run TomTom v6 on my IIs with out a trouble.
There is no v5 to v6 upgrade, and v6 works fine with all flavours of Universal.
Cheers,
Steve.
tt6 works fine in exec but its slow in landscape mode . am going back to 5.21.
why buy it when its free . torrent it dude
I agree, running 6.01 fine on Qtek 9000 with french rom 1.30.97. Faster than 5.21 to my opinion...

I’ve been using the HOLUX gr 230 for more than a year in my XDA II using Windows Mobile 2003 and Windows Mobile 5.0 with Destinator 3.075.
I never had any problems using it.
Last month I bought an i-mate JasJar that comes with original Mobile 5.0.
The Bluetooth seems to work fine because I’m using a Jabra 250V and if I turn it off and turn it on again, Windows recognize that the Jabra is on and work fine.
As you see in “display_2.bmp”, HOLUX work fine in the JasJar, with Destinator 3.075 see on “display_5.bmp”.
But, if I turn off and on again, It appears a message on the display: Cannot open the COMPORT as you can see on “display_1.bmp”.
Why it appears a “?” on the left side of HOLUX? (as you can see on “display_3.bmp”).
It the “display_4.bmp” you can see the HOLUX is working in COM 4.
Have somebody already tested HOLUX GR 230 on a i-Mate JasJar, or similar product using Windows Mobile 5.0?
Best regards,
Jose
This might be a slightly 'dumb' question, but - how did u manage to work fine with WM5 for a year, when it only came out officially just a few weeks back?
IF u did actually use WM5, and not something else branded as such (and I am giving u the benefit of my doubts here) - then MAYBE it was an unofficial and/or unfinished product/version, which might explain your current problems.
I have just bought the Holux 236 which I assume uses the same drivers as the 230, and also had some troubles, but haven't really manged to find time to deal with it yet - If I have any solutions in the near future I will let you know.
Good Luck!

Hello, I'm new to the forum.
I'm interested in using the HTC Wizard with a GPS software managing TMC like Navigon MobileNavigator 5.
Does anyone have any experience with this match?
Thank you in advance.
tried Navigon with my MDA and its very very slow
Hi,
I also use NM5 on the MDA. I think it's working fine when you overclock the MDA :lol:
If installed the map on the SD-Card and NM5 itself in the RAM.
Regards,
I am using TOMTOM - it takes less resources than Mobile Navigator and is working fine! You can have a TMC like support from TOMTOM using GPRS and a PLUS Service of TOMTOM- that is with a yearly extra fee - but you do not need a more expensive TMC GPS solution.
You have to calculate what is better for you.
@wawibu: How do you do?
Navigon on Qtek 9100
It´s work very fine and fast. No problems.
Qtek 9100 with Navigon 5.2.5
I've got a demo copy of Mapopolis on my 8125. I'm using a Holux GPSlim236 over BT to get GPS info.
Overall it works fine. It has a few quirks, like not always picking the route I would take but that's to be expected I guess. Searching large maps like Cook County, IL will sometimes freeze the device for a few seconds while it looks and sometimes will not come up with the address match. The voices do not impress me either, but it does get you to where you need to be.
I'm probalby still going to buy TomTom for the US though. From what I've seen and read, TomTom beats all, and it's only $50 more than Mapopolis.
Hello,
I just bought a MDA Pro and tried today TomTom 6 with my new device.
Why is it so slow?? It has a 520MHz pocessor but it is even slower than my previous qtek 9100 @200MHz??
I have all the POI's turned off but that doesn't help.
Can someone please help me out here?
My Device info:
ROM: 2.50.00 WWE
Radio: 0.00.00 (sim unlocked)
Protocol: 42.37.P8

Schmia
TT6 havent been releashed yet.
Wait for the final version to come out....oh and offcourse remember to pay for it before you ***** about it
wakeUpe dude!!!
TomTom is for sale in Holland, so your stupid comment is useless.
Norway is way behind! He he he ;-))

I have it in UK too. Screen refresh is about twice per second. What are you seeing?
I'm running on O2 Exec with a BT77 GPS.
Cheers,
Steve
on jasjar, tomtom is only slow in landscape, not in portait

Mine's just the same. Two frames per second in landscape mode.
In portrait mode it's a little bit better but not fast.
I'm using a tomtom bluetooth Sirf III reciever

WTF. I am awake......LOL.....I even checked tt's website
But yes, Norway is waaaaaay behind
are you sure mine is running fine much smoother than tt5 even in landscape
if your using a cracked version this could be the problem
hi, using tt6 on my mda pro without any issues..it is prefect. i would not say it it slow by any means..it is much better the tt5 - just the lack of rotation within the tt's menu is a minus...but u cannot have everything, can you ?

Well, not having used TT5, I wouldn't know, but TT6 is great. 1st time with GPS device and realy love it. Easy to install and use on Exec. I'm using with a Holux GPSlim 236 and its great
M5000/MDA Pro TomTom6 Bluetooth GPS How?
How the hell have you all got TT6 working?
I read on TT's site that its not SPVM5000 compatible (Not listed on the devices)
I have had TT5.21 working sweet as a nut on the M5000, with BT GPS (Model: FGPXBT02)!
Scrathing my head on this one - TT6 installs, loads, even allows me to configure home address, configure GPS device and navigate to all the menus, but it will not find the bloody GPS receiver.
How come?? when it worked fine on TT5.21??? Surely TT have not removed generic bluetooth support?
If someone has a generic bluetooth GPS receive working with TT6 I would be grateful if you told me how! - Dont want to have to go back to using 5.21 (even though it looks like the only solution!)
Cheers.

Ever tried TomTom 5? On my Magician TomTom 6 is slower than TomTom 5, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1026668#post1026668
Update!!!
I have now successfully implemented TomTom V6 on an Orange SPVM5000.
After trying all sorts of stuff, including iGo2006 to chech the GPS was working, I hard reset the M5000 and re-installed TomTom V6 ... This still did not work... AAARRRGGGHHH
Searching through the forums I discovered that the 'NO GPS DEVICE' was common through all versions of TOM TOM and a solution was presented by a fellow user.
It turns out that TOM TOM (Any version) does not work unless you have the phone switched on (Smartphone versions only).
Out with the old simcard (defunct, just being used to stop the phone whinging about 'INSERT SIM') and in with a new PAYG from orange (not gonna use it for phoning as I have a BLACKBERRY, just using the M5000 as satnav and wireless PDA - have hands free car kit installed and did not want to remove it!!! )
Voila - the bloody thing works now - finds the GPS Device, finds the satellites and navigates the routes.
oooo - seems quicker than 5.21, and the maps look smarter - but thats about it. The maps dont seem to have been updated as our new build house number is still not on there, and the old properties have been demolished 18 months!!!! oh well - at least i have sat nav in the car again!!!
Lessons to be learned from this!!! - Don't disable the phone - lmao
Cheers!!!!
TT6 works very fine on my Universal. BT GPS and Contacts Navigation works without any problems. Redraw speed is awesome when compared to TT5.2 (at least with my configuration), although it is still less responsive than TT5.2 on a Magician.
The map for Germany is quite up to date as far as I can check.

Hi,
I have a TomTom 5.21 that works ok, but I would like to have new maps, so I want to upgrade to 6. Is it working in Qtek 9100? It's seems that it's not on the list of the supported devices...
It works great, and with an extra bonus: it loads in less than 10 seconds
It does; see for example http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1036940&postcount=204
I also recommend the entire http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1036940 thread.
Thanks guys...going to upgrade.
I am thinking of upgrading to Navigator 6 for my K-Jam, but on the Tomtom website it isnt listed as being compatible. Anyone installed it ok and is it worth the upgrade from Nav5?

TomTom are so inconsistent. Whilst not listing Wizard compatibility with TTN6 and map for some packages, they do with others. See here listed as compatible (MDA Vario / 9100).
Just be aware only v660 build 1223 maps work on TTN5.2 and TTN6. Meaning if you dont have these maps already on your setup you will need to buy new.
However new v675 build 1409 maps were released last week and so may appeal to you.
TomTom 6 is running verey well. Fast, stable and well working with telefonfunction of your PPC - turns sound off and on again while in call.
Update MN6 - no way!!! It is rather slow!
