Tomtom 5.1 and Magician problem

I plan a route on my magician using tt5.1, say for example from newmarket to manchester. When i run demo mode on tomtom to see my way, after a few minutes, tomtom will just swith off. I have not yet tried on an actual trip as Im waiting for replacement of my faulty blutoothe reciever.
I thought it was a software incompatibility but i have no softwares installed on my magician yet. I also thought it was due to my simcard so i removed it while running tomtom. I have also tested using 2 different SD cards, 1GB and 256MB. Same problem.
Has someone experienced this problem?
Please help as I am going on a long drive next weekend.

From memory I think that if you're not connected to a GPS receiver your PDA will just shut down the screen if there's no user input within the time set in your power settings.

It's nothing to do with not being connected to a GPS receiver; you can use the Demo in TT without one.
The problem is more than likely related to the 'POIs'. Initially, to test if it is this, turn them off in Tom Tom settings and run the demo again. If it is the problem then goes to the FTP:
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/SatNav/Tomtom/
... and download the Patch POI TTN5.zip. This should resolve the issue.

im already logged in but i cant access the link... it says 530 Permission Denied.
Please repost the link.
In the mean time I will try to turn off the POIs.
Cheers

Once you get the access denied message, keep the FTP window open behind it. Then go to 'File' menu and select 'Login As..' Type in 'xda' (in small letters) for both the username and password; this should get you in.
Using the Windows FTP, you sometimes have to re-type in the username and password to get access.

got it mate!
in the meantime, i disabled POIs and Im running tt5 for about 10minutes now without interruption.
thank you very much for your help!
one last question please for the sake of curiosity... how do i apply the patch ?

Yep- no problem.
Credit goes to those who originally resolved this issue.

yep! but for the sake of curiosity, how do i apply the patch?

It's a while since I applied the patch but I believe you copy all the files from the zip to the '2577' on the Storage Card (or whatever it's called) and just execute the 'ttn' cab file from the PDA.

cheers mate!
I have tried both techniqs and they both work, so ill stick to just disabling the POIs.
thanks again

I personally find POIs very useful- especially if used in conjunction with the freely available CheckPOInt software:

Orange SPV M3100 lacking BT SIM Access Profile

I have now had my M3100 for a week now and in some ways it is excellent in others frustrating.
There are some specific aspects I would love to change however the main one that is frustrating me today is that SIM Access Profile is described in the User Manual (the first one I have seen from Orange that has not been rewritten Orange stylee and so I presume is from HTC) but it is not accessible.
Full instructions are given for SAP and when you got to Programs the SAPSettings program is not there.
I presume Orange have removed this so that they can protect their Memory Mate revenues, in the same way MSN has been removed to protext SMS revenues.
Is it possible to restore SAPSettings to the phone - is it still on there but simply 'turned off'?
Assistance to someone not too technical would be appreciated.
Other questions include how to reorder my contact list by first name - Symbian does this but not WinMob as far as I can see.
Thanks in anticipation
Trout

I think Orange actually deletes them during their customisation. There's 4 files (well, 3 plus a link) called sapsettings which need to go into your windows folder on the M3100. I've posted them to the ftp server just now - I'll post a link once they're available for download or just keep checking - I called the file sapsettings.zip. I've copied these onto my M3100 (from a friend's TyTn) and all works fine.
When I say works, I mean that they run fine. Actually, the SAP functionality in the current rom for the TyTn and the M3100 is pretty poor and doesn't work very well. They're updating it in a "forthcoming" rom - don't know when, but hopefully soon.

Moved to safe heaven, file is here.

Fantastic guys - thanks for your help

Sorry - I am back.
I have loaded all four files into the Windows folder and when I try and start the SAPSettings program get this message.
"The file 'SAPSettings' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. You might need to reinstall or restore this file"
I have loaded all four files from the ZIP and they all transferred OK. Do I need to update the registry or am I just missing something really obvious.
TIA it is my first time 'under the covers' of a Windows mobile.
Trout

I have tried re-downloading and reinstalling these four files into the WINDOWS folder. Still get the same message.
Any help please guys and gals?
I don't get a program icon in the program window - I can only see the executable in when using File Explorer in the folder where I installed it.

**UPDATED** MIDlet manager

i will give credit to risidoro for this one.. and im lazy som im just going to copy/paste. original post can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1079560&posted=1#post1079560
This new MIDlet Manager comes from the new HTC Herald ROM, version 1.2.405
This new version is JTWI 1.0 compliant and SUPPORTS Google's SATELLITE Maps (of course, you need to download Google Maps' client from www.google.com/gmm
This release also supports sending SMSs from Opera Mini 3.0 (mini.opera.com)!!!
Some Details about the program:
Developer: Intent
Name: MIDlet Manager
Version: 11.1.7.1023
Build: 20060907
JWTI v.1.0 Compliance!
------- HOW TO INSTALL ------------
- download the zip archive from:
Risidoro_Intent_MIDlet_Manager_v11.zip
- extract the cab (inside the archive) somewhere in your PC (e.g. Desktop)
- copy to somewhere in your PocketPC (e.g. \storage card)
- in your PocketPC, navigate with File Manager to the cab and tap on it to install
- when asked, choose to install in the Device (and NOT in Storage Card!)
- reboot when asked
PS: It can be installed over previous version (or in roms where the old midlet is included)!
-------- COMPATIBILITY ---------------
So far, i've only tested it with the midlets i use the most.
- Google Maps runs fine. Satellite maps are supported!!!
- Opera Mini 3.0 runs OK too and supports SMS sending. Even softkeys works! Photo blog feature, however, is not supported
- Mobile GMaps, beta 1.30.08 http://wap.mgmaps.com/ simply wonderful. Sat images for google and yahoo maps.

Does this replace the MIDP manager suplied by default on the phone? Can I use both once this is installed?
(I'm using an Orange branded M3100 with the Intent Midlet Manager, v10.1.7.559 if that matters. I guess thats the same on all hermes devices.)
Thanks,
Sam

Interesting good info.
Couple of ever so picky things shogunmark, a couple of the links need attention the www.google.com/gmm). one needs the ). removed from the end and the (http://wap.mgmaps.com/): one needs the ): removed.
My obsessive compulsive personality disorder forced me to point these out.

You had me at the soft keys working in Opera 3.0. Thanks!!

Shogun are you working on a new rom for the Hermes? Your rom for Wizard was the best one.

Anyone else having problems downloading through Firefox and IE?

bump can anyone email me it to [email protected] can't seem to be able to download it.

right click on the link in IE and choose "Save Target As" and see if that works for ya

and no not yet, i am still a little busy with life, my wife is due to pop out #4 any day now, plus with all the bootloader security stuff going on i dont feel comfortable on making a rom quite yet.. we will see what the future holds

Wowz! Great news! Thanks! I post a link to this thread to all PPC forums / my blog!

Congrats on number 4 Shogun!
I hate to high jack a thread but...
Is there a launch command to put at the end of the .exe file to lauch to start the midlet manager and launch a midlet.
Found my answer and here it is incase anyone else wants to launch midlets from a shortcut. Works for me on iLauncher.
jmm.exe -r"suite","vendor","name" runs Opera Mini and Google Maps for me.
If I try to put the whole line in quotes "name,vendor,name" - it doesn't launch the midlet - only JMM.exe.
You can run any midlet that you have installed. You can find the parameters such as a midlet name and the exact vendor name in Application Data\Tao\intent\app\jam\midlets\midlets.db. I just repeat the midlet name instead of the suite.

Just installed 11.1.7.1023 on my 8525. I first got a system message "access denied"... Oh yeah... I guess I should close MIDlet first
2nd try (once I had a cup of coffee and turned on my brain) install went A-OK. Opera Mini gave me an error and would not connect to anything. I uninstalled the midlet and re-installed and now everything is working. GMaps is faster than map4pda. Softkey functions work as advertised. Thanks for this update!

Install failed
I tried installing it on my MDA Vario II and received the following error
"Installation was unsucessful. The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions." Any suggestions?
Thanks
Richard

i havent had any major issues with the gmail app, i did run into one buggy issue but havent had it since.. but i wont call it a solid app yet, everything else has worked great for me, soft keys, etc

Webview.exe webview.dll tell me how to get this to work

Can anyone go to this site and download the webview.exe file launch the dll module and show the controls for my security cameras on their pda or pocket pc.
I have tried this on the 700wx and also on the 6800 mogul. I like the mogul much better so I took the treo back.
I can get to this site from a regular size desktop and also my laptop. When you go to the site it asks you to download the webview.exe file and run it. This puts the webview.dll file (module) in the same directory that you downloaded the webview.exe file to; with no problems. It then launches the web interface with a login screen. You login to the server and look at the 16 cameras in real time. When I try with my mogul I get a message that says webview.exe is "not a pocket pc application"
I tried copying and pasting the webview.dll file to my mogul but I don't know where to put it or how to launch the webview.dll module.
the compression I am using to show the live stream is h.264 or I can use mpeg4.

Hmmmmm
I 'm on the XDA's developers site;I just knew all my questions would be answered by now.
Look Guys, I don't want to come off sounding like a pompous idiot who thinks he can prod u guys into doing his homework for him. It's just that I got this 6800 on recomendations that I had read in the forums and I really do want to keep this one.
I have purchased three phones in the past week. I started out with the Treo 755p took it back because it had the Palm OS I was sure that was not going to work, but the Sprint sales guy assured me this was better than the 700wx because in his opinion Palm OS was better than WM5. I played with it for two days reboxed and took it back, I switched it for the 700wx because it has Windows OS the best and newest thing in Palm. He was right; it is, if you don't have a need to see streaming security cameras.
I took it back to another sprint store because the guy had gotten frustrated and says to me He can not switch phones more than once. Hmmmmmm
In the past few days I have been reading the forums; I think it was at Treocentral, or somewhere and I came across one of those articles' "which is better types" TREO or Mogul, I went to the Sprint store in our super mall and I found a working display of the Mogul.
I played with the thing for about two minutes and was blown away. I said to my self I have to get this to work for the security web cams; but not just for the camera's; I want to offer this as a turn key solution to my client...He has a treo 700w. I know he is going to be pleased with this. The size difference in the screen; the sliding keyboard, I am nuts about this thing already....
I'm not talking about jpeg's refreshing every 5 sec; I'm talking live streaming video from 16 cameras with the option to control PTZ's
All I Have to do is get the Internet explorer part on the Mogul, to work with the camera's software request to download and install webview.dll I don't know where to put this file on the Mogul, I don't know how to put it on the Mogul (yet). Ihave only had the Mogul for one day
go to the site, and please help

if the exe was written for desktop windows its not going to run on windows mobile, simple as that, youll have to see if the company that makes the security cameras also makes a pocket pc app for them

And there is your answer.
It isn't a PocketPC application. And you are trying to run it on a PocketPC.
Won't work.
The only occasional exception is .net applications that sometimes work on a desktop and PDA.
What brand of camera are you connecting to? There are some apps out there for network cameras so I may be able to help you.

Good point!

I guess I was thinking about installing the webview.dll and that would have solved the problem. I am not sure about the software for the camera maufacturer they are from China, and not much info to go on...
When I go to the site: HTTP://70.63.106.214/default.ht
I get this msg: "To enable control work: Tools-> Internet Options-> Security-> Custom Level Reset to: low or Download and Install it
When I download and install the file; (webview.exe) it is a executable that unpacks webview.dll ver. 2.0, in the same folder with webview.exe.
I did not realize or I am not sure if the webview.exe is the program interface for the application to work, but now that makes sense. I thought the httpsvr.exe that is running on the DVR PC was the app for the web interface and would allow all this to work on any platform.
I guess if there is a way to decompile the webview.exe and make the neccessary changes to include the pocket pc header information; recompile it, test it, fix it test it again. then this would probably work. There is not enough information on the software manufacturers to begin trying to find a solution for this.
I have absolutly no programming skills. I realize now, that this may be a question for the developer/hack forum.
I would like to give it a try though. So if you can point me in the right direction; or if the Mods would repost this thred in the Dev/hack forum; maybe those guys would probably know what tools I would need to get started in this.
I appreciate all your help and it has made me think about the resolution, and the approach to my problem in a different way. Thanks

They are not Internet Cams; I have the regular BNC connectors that pigtale into a 15 pin video connector that attaches to a PCI camera card 8 cams, I have two of the camera cards installed in each pc. I also have an ATI radeon 9550 with wideo out for the hardware compression of the video signal to the PC monitor this works for NTSC and PAL signals.

.cab file problems on 8525

hi all,
i've been looking for an answer to this problem, and I don't like to ask seemingly redundant question, but you guys are the pros.
so here's my problem. i just got my second 8525 and am trying to install all my favorite programs,ie-ptt disable, battery meter, new today screen, but i can't get any cab files to save, transfer, open/extract to my phone. i have the 2.0 .NET framework(i think was my problem first phone) but my pc doesn't/won't recognize my phone as a viable file recipient.
Any ideas? Thank you greatly!!!

upgrade to .net 3.5...

Well yes you can upgrade the .net framework. But I wonder if you are trying to extract the cab files before transfering them to the phone?
Just use activesync explore mode to transfer the cab files (unextracted) to the phone or sd card and then on the phone use file explorer to find them and tap on them.
Things that run all the time and on today screen install to main memory, all the rest install to sdcard (choice appears when you tap on the cab file)
Mike

ok.....i'm going to upgrade to 3.5 but one question still remains. When I try to save .zip/.cab files from the net it only allows me to save to my pc, NOT my phone. in fact, there isn't even an option to save to phone. SO, i thought it would be fine to save to pc then transfer these files to my phone afterwards. NOPE! it's crazy, but my vaio pc doesn't even recognize my phone period. only activesync sees my phone. so, what would be the cause of this file transfer problem?

Save the cab file on your pc, go into activesync and select explore......then drag and drop the file onto the explore window. Simple

well, i dL the 3.5 .NET framework. no problems there, but my original problem still exists. I can't open any files to my 8525. when i try to copy or send from pc to phone, my phone isn't even recognized. when i explore my phone and try to push a file through, it doesn't work. This is probably some ridiculous formality, but I can't figure it out! It's starting to really irritate me now

wow...I feel like a moron. i looked and looked for the answer and finally found it. i googled it, and saw on 2 different sites that there's a box that needs to be unchecked in the usb to pc button under the connections menu. the button is the 'enable network functionality' that needs to be unchecked. i still have intermittent problems installing programs on here, activesync randomly recognizes my phone now, but at least now I'm getting programs installed. Hope this helps everyone
