hi..
I've got a huge problem with my imate jam.
Sometimes the buttons stop responding. The touchscreen keeps working just fine. I flashed my jam to rom 1.12.00 WWE but that did not solved the problem. After soft-resetting my jam the bottons will respond again but i keep getting the same problem within minutes! . Does anybody know what to do?
tia!
maybe it's something you've installed??
i only got gsplayer and bluetoothtools installed...
I've had it too but only a handful of times. A real pain when pressing the hang up button and nothing happens.
More often I get the "service command not recongnised" error that causes the soft key hang up button in the dialer to fail.
When the two happen together I have to soft reset to hang up!!! Not fun!
Leeeeon, the problem is GSPlayer. There should be an option to switch off button mapping in GSPlayer itself. You will notice that this will only happen if GSPlayer is open.

I had the same problem with BTools ver.1.1 (if I'am not misteking) without GSPlayer installed. There was an info that 1.02 work better on Magician but as for me, after that bug I don't want to experment with btools. I have gps, headset and ASync nice working with ms bt stack.
it might just be bluetoothtools! Yesterday i uninstalled it and i havnt had the problem ever since! Useually i had to reboot my phone for like 5-10 times a day.
Lets hope it wont come back for a few more days.. then im sure its solved...
Can TT5 be minimised so it is in the background all the time or do you always have to exit the application?
well i have just tried, and you can press the txt button and it will take you out but when you close it, it goes back to tomtom. So that would be a NO

The problem is not if TT5 (or TT6) can be minimised, it can, but how. A solution is using one or more utilities to map a hardware buttons to the required functions.
In my case (but it is only a sample) I have AE Button Plus (http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus.php) and WisBar Advance (http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/). I mapped a double press of the calendar button to the cascade menu of Wisbar. This menu includes at top an item to show the today screen. Thererefore, when TT runs, the sequence "double press calendar" plus "press down" plus "press enter" has TT minimised in the task bar.
I just press the red end call button when in tomtom and it takes me out to the today screen. The tomtom hands are in the task bar to press when I want to go back into it. I find this works well for me while driving.

This solution doesn't work with TT6.
(But saying that, I'm now not sure!!!) :lol:
I'll edit this accordingly.
I do apologise, it does. Hmmm there was something that didn't!!! :lol:
Pressing the "end call" button works on TT6
It works on my MDA vario

what i do is press the mail button then tap on start---today that minimizes TT6 for me.
Bear in mind, you don't really want TT running in the background constantly, unless you're connected to a power source. The number of times I have accidentally started TomTom as I put my phone in my pocket, only to come back a few hours later and find it's sapped my battery to about 10%, and my phone is roasting hot.
The new version of TomTom starts in about 10 seconds, that's fast enough for me. In fact, I must check if TT6 uses the same "busy loop" programming as TT5, where it constantly uses the processor even when it's doing nothing but display a static screen - I was surprised TomTom sorted out the startup time, I'd be shocked if they'd sorted that out.
I want to keep it running so I get in the habit of turning it on for the speed camera database every time I get in the car.
I have an always on GPS in the car and as long as TT is running each time I walk away and come back it picks up the GPS each time. I know if I have to start TT each time I'll not do it.
Thanks for your help
Didn't anyone read in several post before that by pressing the "end" call button tomtom will minamize? this works perfectly on my mda/qtek WM5.

xou can try two things: 1. go outside and wait until gps is found (could take 15 minutes) 2. press the cancel button
the cancel button wasn´t working either.
anyway, the problem is solved. i was trying to press all the buttons, when i pressed the one which change between the two cameras the message went out.
hello all X1 users
when request to make call through speed dial one bubble ask to confirm coming from upper bar with "yes"and"no" buttons.
using SE panel 1
any idea or REG tweak to remove this bubble and executing call immediately after pressing the speed dial ???this will be more safe whenever you need to make call when driving car .
thanks in advance
Yeah these bubbles are annoying, also popup for wifi, bluetooth and phone on off icon.
Anyway press and hold for quickdial is how I do it !

I've just tried TomTom 7 with xperia x1 and it works great expect for some damn popups. I had my earphones connected to the device, and WM kept bugging me with pop-up telling me the ive connected stereo phones. The pop-up never went away, and i had to repeatedly press on the screen to make i go away and tom tom to keep updating my position. That was both dangerous and annoying.
So anyone know how to get rid of the popups?
just a little bump to get help..
bump..
another bump... does anyone know any fix?
and another bump
Hello,
I'd like to use my HD with Tomtom on my motorbike (HD in the pocket, navigation instructions over to my Sony bluetooth headset).
Trouble is, of course, that in my pocket, the screen is pressed and Tomtom exits.
Is there a way to launch Tomtom and then lock the screen before putting it in my pocket ?
Thanks !
same problem here.

I'm using Navigon on my HD and after locking the screen (press and hold the end key), the Navigon just continues to give driving instructions. Wouldn't that work with TomTom?
locking
Problem I believe is once tomtom looses focus then it stops working. Need to lock it while staying focused on the tomtom screen.
Also if the tomtom looses focus then the phone goes to sleep after period X

It doesn't : Tomtom keeps working in the background but no instructions coming through =(
There are two ways to lock the device while continue to run TomTom (with the instructions):
1) Press Today button, then lock the device in normal way;
2) Install Gyrator2. With the default settings it will lock your device when inseting stylos back to device.
First solution doesn't work for me : the instructions remain when i press the today button but are cut as soon as i lock the device with a long press on the bottom right button or with the on/off button at the top of the device
Will give a try to gyrator
works perfectly with gyrator2 !
Thanks a lot
Gyrator
Only problem is with gyrator is the device goes to sleep after a little while. I think it is because the unlock function is in the foreground. Tomtom is still active but sleeps after a little while.
Would be good is gyrator then made tomtom the foreground app again once locked.
Just go to the power options and untick the boxes !
