how do you get tom tom working ?
it keeps telling me to instal maps, wich i already did

Did you use official map installs or warez?

the map that comes with the tom tom software, you first install the navigator app and then you can install maps, then i install the netherlands and want to start tom tom on my mda and it says that i should install maps from the cd first

I had this, I think it happened because I installed everything at once without clicking the "ok" buttons on the PDA after each app installed (i.e it installs about 5 things, tom tom nav, tom tom gps, tom tom wizard, tom tom maps etc). If you dont click ok after each one it can get confused and not install the map.
Uninstall the map using activesync add/remove, then re-install it from the cd, making sure to click ok on the pda if it asks you.
If that doesnt work uninstall the whole lot using activesync, soft reset, then install from scratch but make sure to keep an eye for ok buttons on the pda while installing.
Also make sure you have enough memory, the maps are big (16mb, 32mb, 64mb and 128mb...dont know how big the netherlands one is).
Jez.

well its working now i think it was because the memory card i installed it on was not empty, i used an empty card now and everything is working

I cannot get it to install completely, as soon as i click on install it finds my JAM and an error message appears saying something about "File hierarchy" and tomtom support say that JAM is not a compatible phone for the navigator system. Can anyone help

anybody try the tomtom BT GPS?

works good for me with tomtom3 and blue tooth tomtom GPS.
first i had problem to install but it was because i use a USB hub.tomtom need a direct connection to install (there is a faq on TomTom site).
after to connect the bluetooth GPS ,you open Tom tom navigator , you ve got to go on the icone GPs state, then in Gps Folder choose "TomTom Wireless GPS" in the first window and "Bluetooth GPS" in the second.
good luck...

my jam always seems to freeze on tomtom 3.07 after a while im on v1.11 and bluetooth patch using an globalstat BT GPS :\ fecking thing

Your freezing problem is prob because of your choice of memory cards, certain cards work well some not @ all, lotsa threads about this.

yeah i just found that out i have a peak ultra 60x high speed 1gb sd and a 256mb simpletech one the simpletech one works great but yet the 1gb one freezes

I am using the TomTom BT GPS w/ my Jam too.
But I am not using the Tomtom software (since I found Routis V2 is much better for voice prompt and routing in US). I don't even need to install the GPS driver. Just pair it once and it will connect eveytime I open up my GPS software.

Four things about Tom Tom on JAM:
1. It seems to be equally as buggy as the rest of the JAM so no knowing when wierd stuff happens whether or not it is TomTom or the JAM or something else. That said when you do get it going, it does work nicely most of the time. Some intermittent weird behaviour:
- sometimes won't change maps
- keeps turning JAM back on when I turn it off. Have to close TT3 to get it to stop.
- without a power source, screen keeps going dark
- occassional BT issues
2. When TomTom doesn't see the maps at all but you know you've installed them, make sure you haven't deleted a file in the root of your SD card called "ignore_my_docs" which is a zero byte file that is hidden. This caused me a bit of pain for a while.
3. Because of my previous issue, I discovered when I emailed TomTom support that TomTom doesn't in fact support this release on the Magician and won't help you if you tell them that is what you have. So if you do need support make sure you give them the name of a device that they do support.
4. TT3 user interface leaves a lot to be desire IMHO, and the one thing that drives me nuts is that I have this SD card full of wonderful maps that I have paid for yet I can't simply type in an address just to look at the map, I have to pretend to make a journey, connect the GPS, blah, blah, blah. The only way around this I found is that if you keep address information in your contacts, you can select the "Show TomTom map" option.

I've TT3 3.07 on my magician with an adapt bt gps and it works fine. You do have to shut down the application as stated above, the device will keep switching on if you don't. But one problem is irritating: I live in Belgium where there is a general speed limit of 120 Km/h. I set the prefs so that the safe speed warns me showing no map but only arrows. If I drive too fast for a while the QTek S100 switches off and sometimes back on if I slow down under 120 Km/h. I didn't have this prob on my other, wired, device.

8525 and TomTom6

I've purchased and installed the TomTom 6 navigation software with some specific maps but am having a problem with getting a bluetooth GPS device to properly partner up with the device and software. When I ask the 8525 to establish a 'new partnership' it finds the BT-GPS-359 GPS receiver, but when I go to 'partnership settings' I only get a selection of 'Serial Port' for 'services to use from this device'. I would assume here that I would get the TomTom software option to choose. When I open the TomTom software and ask to configure the GPS receiver it isn't properly being located. Is there some specific settings I need to use with Com Ports? Any suggestions to get these devices working together would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Create an outgoing com port assigned port 2 and try to find it using TT6. That is what I did with my BT-338

Thanks...that did the trick. So now when I want to use the Navigation software do I just turn on the GPS receiver and start the TomTom software and it will automatically 'partner' for navigation purposes?

Yep, that is it.

You can even minimize it and place a call... it doesn't miss a beat! I'm definitely impressed with it!

...then you can maximize it using the red icon in bottom tray and continue the call.

I have to admit that after getting the partnership working and using the 8525 as a GPS navigator...I am really impressed. I've never used GPS navigation so don't have much to compare it to, but with the 8525 displayed in a mount on the dash and the tomtom software working I have found it very accurate today in getting me to my destination (and gee....I even have multiple choices for the voice I want to hear!!)

TomTom 6 makes my TyTn freeze sometimes; any idea why..?

ROM v1.35 will freeze randomly for lots of different apps, usually when they are first loaded. It looks like AKU 3.3 has fixed this problem, so hopefully we won't be seeing these random freezes any more.

Yes but the display won't go into landscape (side ways) it'll stay in the normal display but as soon as you press a key on the keyboard the TT6 on screen keyboard will pop up which is big enough to use your fingers.

Thanks
Hi rgreenpc,
Mnay thanks, that seems to do the trick.
Richrdracer

can somebody compare the speed difference between tt6 and tt5.21.
my tt5.21 need sooo long to start up (45 sec!!). Is tt6 quicker?
Someone found a trick to use the old tt5 maps?

As indicated in other posts on this site, I found that TT6 slows up and sometimes freezes when Points of Interest (POIs) are used. In the UK we have lots of speed cameras and setting these on certainly causes TT6 to freeze on my MDA Vario II (HTC TyTn). After turning off all POIs I just completed a trip with no freezes and the display was far smoother - with the POIs on it was jerking and lagged behind current position.
I have the Holux GPSSlim 240 BT receiver and found it impossible to get it to work reliably with TT6 unless I stopped WM5 from managing the GPS receiver. After unticking "Manage GPS automatically ..." all works well with TT6 and this receiver. Interestingly I cannot get it to work with Google Map (for PPC) without having WM5 manage the GPS receiver!
On my device TT6 start-up performance (without any route set) is:
- Display of normal route screen - 8-15 secs
- BT then turns on within - 20 secs
- TT6 sees GPS receiver - 25-35 secs
- TT6 displays GPS info - 27-37 secs
(all time elapsed from TT6 start) Before I removed the tick for WM5 control of GPS data it took up to 5 mins for TT6 to see the GPS receiver, and sometimes TT6 never saw the GPS receiver at all - even though it was working and Google map was able to see it every time.
I have not applied the 6.01 upgeade yet - are there any improvements? Have others found this issue with WM5 mangement and is it fixed with the upgrade?
Hope this is of help to some.

TomTom6 Bluetooth Issue

I´m running Black Shadow 4.0
Radio 1.43.00.00
Protocol Version 32.76.7020.19h
BT Devices :
Handsfree Nokia BH-200 - Configured in Bluetooth Connections as HANDS FREE
Gps Holux GPSSLIM240 - Configured in Bluetooth Connections as SERIAL PORT
I´m always connected with my hands-free device. when i enter tomtom, i never get a response from the gps. I have to exit the program, turn off BT in the TYTN, turn it on .. and then reenter TOMTOM 6.030. Sometimes then it finds the gps module and then connects....
Why does this thing happen ? is the BT from TYTN limited to one connection? the devices are using different services ....
It´s making me crazy.
And another thing. When i use the TODAY ICON to rotate screen, it rotates to de the side of the keyboard. When i configure a button to that same program "<rotate screen>" usually the voice call button .. it rotates to the other side .... it´s making me crazy ... this because i can´t find an option in tomtom to make the screen rotate when i run it
Is it possible to make a similar bat file as we make in the pc ... i´d like to switch BT off .. then on .. then rotate screen .. then run tomtom.
The problem is that after exit it would remain in landscape mode.
Please help ....

Internal GPS problem HTC P6500

Hi all,
I recently purchased a P6500 and I installed Igo 8.When I enter the gps config menu it says that gps could not be found;if i hit the auto search button the device freezes.
I installed Port splitter 1.11 and I managed to gain something...the device doesn't freeze anymore but it still can not find the gps.I have no idea how to set up the com ports....the program port..the hardware port..I am confused...
(I also inst. Igo 2006 and works ok.)
I appreciate any help!!

Hi, Xman -- I don't know this software and so probably can't really offer anything helpful. For what it's worth, the GPS seems to work fine on my P6500: both with Google Maps and with GPS-enabled photos on the HTC Camera app. Does your GPS work with those programs?
Sorry about your troubles!
Alan

I didn't try with Google maps because I'm interested in making Igo work .
At list tell me an app which can show me some info about the internal gps such as speed /the com port on which it's installed etc..
Thanks

Problem solved!!!!!!!
Solution? GPS Gate

I have also noticed the same problem running both IGO-2006 and I-GO 2008 on my 6500,on the other hand i have had no trouble whatsoever running Destinator 7 and Garmin ,i guess it's got something to do with the software and not the PPC itself which i must say has a very good GPS receiver.
Edit
Thanks for the GPS-gate idea.

Well I think I rejoiced too early.Today I took a longer trip and wanted to check how my new solution works......after catching speed the gps started disconnecting an reconnecting until I had to turn it off for good.So almost back to square one.....anybody who can help?

At input I selected WM GPS and after you hit open.
At output I have Gpsgate direct/virtual com2(all NMEA)/COM2/COM4
But as I said in my previous post...is not quite working.
Also you might check the franson's web site ..thy seem to have a nice support forum...if you find anything please share.

You mean that you have also problems with the Igo8?If yes do you have the original Igo or the cracked one?

Hey Xman556,
it is a crack one at the moment untill I can get it to work properly then I'll buy it if not I'll just leave it.
The way I can get it to work is like this I start the iGo8 then I go to settings TMC and dp a search if return as no hardware fined then I go to GPS and put in the com port 4 and the speed 57800 and it work but if I do a soft rest the iGo8 well not work anymore until I change the GPS port in the PDA to a diffrent port like port 8 then the Igo8 well star and I have to do everything I did before go to TMC and so on if I try to go straight to the GPS without going to the TMC the system hang and I have to do a soft rest this is the way I got it working I'm using the version 4.1.506 if the Igo I tried the earlier version and it is the same problem I need a solution better than this.
Thank You
Gigino

As far as I see the problem is that the cracked Igo is not able to start the internal gps.
Here my new solution..this time is really working !!!
GPS TEST from chartcross...i start this program .it starts the gps then menu/minimize and after i start the igo.
Tell me if it works for u.

I had this problem with I-go at first. When first installed selecting the gps port and or baud rate would lock the phone. Also if you did an auto detect it would also lock the phone. Solution, have gpsdash or google navigator running with the gps enabled (or anything else that works with the internal gps it seems). Without stopping the app start I-go and it will find and use the gps quite nicely.
Once it has done this the first time I never had to run anything else before I-go even after a reset. Tried this several times by fully reseting the 6500 and worked every time.

similar GPS problems with HTC P6500 and iGo
Hi all,
I'm writing from Germany and have similar problems with iGo 2006+ and iGo 8.
(I purchased iGo 8 just yesterday)
My (German) settings:
Settings --> System --> External GPS -->
Tab Program?:
COM4 for internal GPS, no external GPS via Bluetooth (see Attachment)
Tab Access?:
manage GPS automaticly: ON
What are your GPS settings?
- - -
What I have discovered:
- 1st starting iGo 2006+ and iGo8: both applications hang during 'starting'
- With Igo 2006+ I tried: 1st starting the app 'GPS Tuner', then starting iGo
--> It starts and iGo finds GPS on Com4 with maximum baud
(now I don' t have any longer 'GPS Tuner')
- With iGo8 I tried starting the freeware 'VisualGPSce' 1st (until GPS fix), then starting iGo8 --> It starts, I could set COM4, maximum baud...
--> so I think, is is an internal iGo/GPS-problem
- Today I could drive about 10 km with Igo8, then it crashes without any msg
You can see, I have similar probs, did u solve the probs meanwhile?

Rainer from Germany

cracked igo works fine on Sedna. from SD or InternalFlash.
I´m using GPSGATE.
Start GPSGATE, best automatically after reboot.
this will start the internal GPS.
Now you have 2 possibilities.
1. use the output port of GPSGATE, maybe Virtual Com1. You can select it in the options from GPSGATE
or
2. use Com4 from internal GPS. once startet from GPSGATE, it works.
you have to edit your sys.txt in folder programs....igo8
[gps]
port="1" or "4"
baud="38400"
it works definitly

Latest news
After trying all kinds of programs(GPS port spliter,gps gate and gps test) I found that the solution with gpstest is the best.So I decided to perform a hard reset in order to install on my device only the useful software. But after the hard reset the gps would not start no matter what programs I installed. So I sent the device to HTC and they replaced the mainboard.
Now the IGO8 works perfect(together with GPSTEST-pls see my earlier posts).

GPS Text script
I too found GPSTest.exe useful because its really small.
Strange that iGo hangs when trying to communicate over the port *unless* you start another program and open up the GPS unit's port.
Sounds a lot like PPC/iGo GPS management issue.
Be that as it may, I created a script with MortScript, and then put this shortcut under my programs in "\Windows\Start Menu\Programs" on my PPC (I'm running WM 6.1 if you care).
The following script opens GPSTest.exe, launches iGo, then closes GPSText.exe after iGo shuts down;
iGoLaunch.mscr:
Code:
#OPEN GpsText.exe minimized
Run ("\Storage Card\Program Files\Chartcross\GPSTest\Bin\GPSTest.exe")
WaitForActive ("GPS Test", 5000)
Minimize ("GPS Test")
#Run (and wait until iGo closes)
RunWait ("\Program Files\iGO8\iGO8.exe")
#Close GpsText.exe
Kill ("\Storage Card\Program Files\Chartcross\GPSTest\Bin\GPSTest.exe")
After creating iGoLaunch.mscr, put this link (use notepad) into "\Windows\Start Menu\Programs"
iGo 8 GPS.lnk:
Code:
1#"\Storage Card\iGo8\iGoLaunch.mscr"?\Program Files\iGO8\iGO8.exe, -101
Please note: If you decide to use this script and shortcut, I highly suggest you check the paths/filenames for accuracy.

GPS and WM 6.1 upgrade
Hey guys -- this may well not be relevant to the issues you're dealing with -- I don't use iGo -- but there is a HUGE improvement in GPS reception with the Windows Mobile 6.1 upgrade. My Sedna used to have a very difficult time getting GPS reception: it often could not find a signal despite repeated attempts. But since the upgrade, it's been locking on quickly and consistently.
Thought I'd pass this on in case it's helpful.
Alan

very simple script
once the GPS is initialized for the first time it will work
I've wrote a script for MortScript. The only code is:
WriteFile( "COM4:",x )
This script only sends something (here x) to COM4.
Then COM4 is used for the first time and will keep on working.
I start this script in autostart.
That's all.
Please regard uppercase and colons when writing "COM4:"
Bye

Solution for port splitter
You can use port splitter for your gps. here is the process i went through with my HTC (jade). first i used gps gate and figured out that the internal gps is using com4. since gpsgate is not free and had to stop using it I tried port splitter
simply install port splitter on your pda
under INPUT-> PORT: com4 and Baud: 4800 (you might have to type COM4 yourself)
under OUTPUT-> select com1 on the drop down menu and press ADD
then press Start Splitter
and it should work
if not install gpsgate and figure out what port it is using and than use port splitter.
This should save you some money

Xperia x2 gps

Hi Guys!
Does anybody have experience with X2 GPS.
I can't make it work with TomTom or iGO.
It works fine with Google and GPS Test, but TomTom and iGO say GPS not found.
Any ideas?

What TOMTOM version do you use? In 7.9 there's an option called Other NMEA Receiver, when you select that it should detect your GPS automatically, and how long do you wait after selecting the device? Have you downloaded quickfix update?..sometimes it takes a while before it gets a signal..you can check if tomtom recognizes your GPS if the yellow/black ball is spinning at your GPS config

It seems that the Copilot live works properly. I have the same issue with TomTom and Igo. I tried to change SYS on Igo, forcing COM4 port but seems disconnected.
If you select in TomTom the other NMEA GPS and set up the UART Serial Port, seems that the GPS work but it disconect each second...
Any Ideas??

GPSGate solves the problem!

I installed the GpsGate 2.6 but once I start the phone, it seems that is working, but sometimes the apps crash and you need to restart the X2. I tried too in Safe Mode, but the result was negative.......... Some Idea??

I couldn't get it to work yesterday.
Today I installed the latest update from SonyEricsson, i then installed GpsGate 2.6.
After this it worked.

I have the update applied too, but seems the app crash..... I have the battery level down now, I will try to restart the service once I finish the charge. Until the crash, the GpsGate and Nvigation software (TomTom and IGO) works properly.
Thanks....

Thx for the advise!
Yes, the version is 7.9 and I have tried both built-in GPS and Other NMEA Receiver (with proper COM port) - no success!
I have waited long enough - I tried with Google and it was OK, plus I know how long it may take - I was using same version of TomTon on HTC Diamond, so...
Thanks anyway.

I tried the GPSGate and it seems that this might be the solution BUT... You need to run it manualy (not to run after soft reset) - in this case it seems that it works. This applies to version 2.5 since this is what I have.
Will continue testing.

igo8 on x2
to make igo8 work you have to edit sys.txt file
[device]
type="alias_xperia"
[gps]

good luck

This is exactly what I had in mind - you should not use this option. It seems that GPSGate runs before GPS device is available so it doesn't work.
Meanwhile I tried the settings posted by og33 - it worked perfect so THANKS!

Problems with GPS - Continue
Hello.
We have problems with the GPS and any "navigator" (TomTom or iGo) I use the GPSGate and run ok for 10 minutes, in these moment the GPS shutdown and the "navigator" show the message "no GPS device detected". I need restart the mobile and run correctly again for ten minutes.....
Anybody could help me?

download the file below and replace it in the program folder of igo it worked for me. with igo after that restart your phone. uninstall gpsgate

Also have an X2 with TomTom and GpsGate, and it loses signal after 10 minutes. That's very annoying because I don't have any other navigation software and my Tytn2 just died...
Anyone knows the gps comm port number on X2? I found a soft called PortSplitter that is similar to gpsgate, but needs to manually enter the comm port.

Hello again.
I have copied the file in the igo folder and I continues with the problem, the situation is similar to "astm13", the connection with the GPS is lost 10 minutes after the "navigator" is running. Always 10 minutes.
Please help me!!!!

Try to change the input in GPS Gate : use WM GPS instead of GPD9. Seems to be working, I'll test during a long driving.
Edit : Just tried today during 2 hours, worked perfectly! Tomtom never lost the signal.

Hi All !
Does it make any difference where you put the code in the sys.txt for iGo8.
I have tried this and still no go. Google maps works perfectly, however iGo
any help is really appreciated.

Good news there may be a way to fix this.
Try the following: go to Settings / External GPS and from programs change the GPS program port to COM8.
For me that did the trick and now my iGo8 is working like a charm
I am using a X2 with official MR1 software installed.
If anything else comes up I'll post here
